So WH bid was 40, Chelsea wants 50, 45 it is then

That would work for me, play hard ball since they got 100 million for Rice.

Lazio Rom hat mit Dynamo Moskau eine Einigung über Arsen Zakharyan erzielt.

(über @SkySport)

 

Trevoh Chalobah is viewed internally by Chelsea as another sellable asset. @liam_twomey

Gallagher should be like Colwill. Not for sale under any circumstances and price. His beautiful hair is worth 50m alone. Apparently Poch likes him but doesn't want to fight with club.

Vesp - I noticed your bio says you're in South Kensington. The missus and I are heading over to London in October - and I've been looking at accomodation but don't know where to settle on. Would you say the South Kensington area is better than Hyde Park/Paddington for getting around to sites and attractions? Obviously closer to Stamford Bridge which is nice - but would be good to get a perspective. 🙂

Off topic, but would appreciate the help. 🙂

Unfortunately all academy players that aren’t guaranteed starters are essentially FFP money printing machines. If we sell him and buy a replacement it looks good on the books as amortisation splits up the buying fee but selling fee is 100% profit in the window.  So it only makes sense not to sell if 1. We think we can’t replace or upgrade for similar money or 2. We can’t replace with HG and are worried about having enough HG

If Trev and Conor both leave - it would be nice to see Kudus come in, but what would that mean for our CB options? Levi, Badiashille and Silva?

CuCu for CB and Maatsen for LB 🙃😏

Just kidding!

I mean - CuCu has played as CB in both preseason matches so far...maybe Poch is considering this 😂

I feel sorry for Gallagher and Chalobah.

They seem like good guys.

Well, if Chalobah is sold, we are bound to sign a replacement, and since this one helps the FPF amortization, and with the amount we will get from him and some more we will spend, we have a far superior replacement.

About Gallagher, I believe the board believes in the kids like Santos, Chuku and Casadei and as you said, because of FPF, the amount we will get from Gallagher will help the accounts a lot.

The truth is we already have too many youngsters in midfield and one has to be sacrificed. 

Let's sell him and bet on the potential of the kids. 

although, with gallagher's money, we can sign two more players for the midfield. caicedo and another player.

i'm not sure what the management's idea will be.

I believe for 45M pounds Chelsea will sell him 

[Pizy 18,850]

Not accepting £40-45m for Gallagher feels risky to me. He plays nothing like a player worth that sort of money.
