VVD is a working system away from returning to some sort of form

a good partner away

I would not want any of these

 (pretty overrated IMHO, barring some out-of-the-blue major breakthrough in form)

on our squad

(other than maybe the ageing but good for one more season Matip as a one year stop-gap backup IF we sell Trevoh and (as is likely) buy no replacement this window)

Tyler is superb when he plays for USA national team (but Pulisic also is).
Could it be though that we are underestimating him because of the overall predicament of Leeds ?

He wont, get over it guys...not the end of the world

Club was doing the right thing offering 80-90mn odd on the higher side, he aint worth anything near 110mn (Its a massive overpay). He was the best option available but thats about it.

I wouldnt buy another makeshift DM right now, we should wait for the right oppurtunity/player (Someone like a Tchouameni might just become available later).

Also we need to stop transactions with Brighton with immediate effect, they got their way cause of silly Liverpool.

I knew a little something... He will 100% play for us

The deal has been agreed- we are sending documents this morning. Things go to plan Sir Romano should be saying the three words later today 👍🏻

Ca cei do - here we go - ca cei do 

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

A relatively simple explanation because many have asked: Chelsea need something like £450m profit (could even be more) from 22/23 and 23/24 player trading to balance the allowable trading loss over the last 3 years (conservatively). I reckon they did around £100m player trading profit in 22/23 with around another £75m so far from Mount, Pulisic, PEA, Livermento sell on profit and Ampadu.

Amortisation rises when you buy and does not fall if you sell a youth player for a pure profit. 

So Caciedo, Lavia and Olise will add not only, say, £35m of amortisation in 23/24 but also, say, £25m of wages. 

That’s more than the likely trading profit of selling Gallagher and Hudson Odoi although assume maybe £12.5m wage saving. But they needed that for the existing deficit before Caciedo etc.

This leaves Chalabah and Broja as profit opportunities. Most of the rest are at best neutral in terms of profits - Ziyech could lose quite a lot, Kepa neutral, Cucurella has a book value so high he can’t be sold for profit, Sterling the same. 

So they are many £10s of millions short of break even under PL P&S in 23/24 even if they managed to just about comply in 22/23 (which I’m skeptical about too).

Haha...

Maybe Bohely & Co doing all those deals because they sure Chelsea will get only fines and not punishments like transfer bans or bans from europe...

We should be hearing something any minute now.

[Costa19 858]

Some reports yesterday that Lavia was on his way to do the medical and if thats true we should absolutly get some news soon. 
 
Crazy if Papa B&E took it personal and went full super sayian mode and sign both Lavia and Caicedo
