Chelsea Transfers

[Vesper 28,787]

out!   

4.0 (I think) updated

(£225-235m or so left to be garnered if we sell all the non crossed out, which, when the other sales are added in, basically wipes out the £600m in transfer fees paid from last season)

IF we buy another CF I am all down to sell Broja, which would take it to £255-265m or so

Saudis are deffo in the mix to sell to for some of these

well she could not have known I would turn out to be queer

and even if she did, she could not name me after the lesbian/bisexual Bond girl:

Pussy Galore

With a name like that, Pussy would seem like a character more of a Bond parody than a serious character, but Ms. Galore really is one of the first tough as nails Bond girls out there. She starts off as just a lackey for Auric Goldfinger, but Bond eventually convinces her to switch to the side of the good guys, the first major character to have done a complete 180 in the franchise.

Also, Pussy is a pilot and could hold her own against Bond, to a degree at least. She’s really the first Bond girl who wasn’t just a pretty face and this is why I felt she deserved to be this high on the list. That and her epic name.

You’ll also be surprised to find out that her film adaption is actually cleaned up from her character in the novel who was actually a lesbian (well, bi-sexual I guess would be more accurate).

Good. I had this weird fantasy of Gallagher injuring Caicedo with a weird tackle and this forum popping off

Seriously cannot wait for this saga with Caicedo to be over. Bloody clowns valuing him €100m player but aren’t paying him like he is one. At least West Ham tried to offer Rice a serious wage. 
 

Don’t even get me started on De Zerbi openly talking about Colwil…..

Brighton are just acting up because they know we don't have a back up option if the Caicedo deal doesn't happen

We could have bid for Lavia by now and at least put the pressure on Caicedo to force Brighton's hand

Lavia seems to be the backup option for everyone, otherwise someone would have gone for him already. He is linked to all PL clubs, but still no movement.

It is very early in the story, but several sources are saying Vivell leaving is to make way to get Mitchell in.

 

 

[bluesman2610 1,341]

I feel we haven’t gone for Lavia because they believe Santos is better. So it really is getting Caicedo or nothing. I feel we need another CAM/#10 who can score and has the eye for a pass I feel if we brought one in we wouldn’t be as stressed about Caicedo

Roberto De Zerbi issues a hands-off warning to Chelsea and insists £100m Moises Caicedo will start next season at Brighton... but hints offering them in-demand Levi Colwill could help seal a deal

Out of the 3 teams you posted there it’s a nightmare to deal with two of them. I just wish the board was sensible enough to look at players like this in the same price range as Caicedo.

All of the above are much better footballers than him.

That’s gotta classify as tapping up

[lucio 5,418]

Fuck Brighton. De Zerbi is a piss poor hipster manager and will be exposed next season. Caicedo is barely worth half of what they want , if they won’t be reasonable after scamming us for potter and cucarella (and getting gilmour for peanuts) then walk away and never deal with them again
