DH1988 1,348 Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 I'd love to see what goes on in a typical month inside the negotiation team etc because we seem to do our business backwards, all the news on XYZ players leaving, terms agreed and such, albeit gossip(ish) and all I would be thinking on the opposite side, say Brighton, is adding more to the price tag of Cai etc. as it's just a given we will panic and put ourselves in a terrible negotiating position - That said, glad we missed out on Ugarte. I was still under the impression we needed to register sales before end of June in order for them to count toward FFP balances, again if I knew that as the opposing club...

DH1988 1,348 Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Couldn't care about losing out on Rice, conbative and plays for the badge sure absolutely, but he doesn't add another dimension to Arsenal other than legs. Would it be good to have him? Sure, Chelsea lad, but at £90m?? We’ve been done over by the return love story previously, Romelu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,141 Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 I think at the front of the line now must be someone who fights for the badge because that is half the problem, in fact most of the problem. Rice would offer legs, grit, fight and most of all would care. OneMoSalah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ulvhedin 526 Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 About Malang Sarr - we signed him for free, loaned him out 2 times for around 3 m, he was used as backup for one season, he is not on massive wages. He was a gamble that didn't get us much profit, but didn't cost us much (or even brought small profit). I don't understand why are you all crying about this. I know you guys like to be negative about everything but Sarr is bad example. Vegetable, OhForAGreavsie and ltblue 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What the fuck is the transfer strategy at this club? Let Kante leave, let Kovacic leave and then go after someone like Neymar? After signing Mudryk in January? If this is true, there is clearly no defined plan and back to winging it. Neymar, unlike the story with Ronaldo, will be a great asset to the club. He is a great guy like Thiago and he fills all the ticks. As a forlorne hope let me restate the case for Mbappe once more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesman2610 1,417 Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Some of the wages figures for our players been thrown around are grossly overstated - now do some players deserve the wages they are on that’s a huge no but take a look at gross and net wages. https://www.capology.com/club/Chelsea/salaries/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoroccanBlue 5,383 Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Definitely playing the long game with these outgoings. June 30th being the FFP deadline doesn't seem to be considered an issue at the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZAPHOD2319 4,819 Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 I think the combination of a terrible start by the owners. A season that was dreadful. Our veteran players wanting to leave.

Popular Post! chelsea_4_eva 1,182 Posted June 9, 2023 Popular Post! Share Posted June 9, 2023 To me anything under £50M for Havertz is not enough. Not when the likes of Leicester are asking for £40M for Barnes. It doesn't matter how meh Kai has been here, he is still a young full international player.
