Chelsea Transfers

I see no future for Delap at this club, we don't play a 2 together, he cannot play wide and he's a pretty shit back up

A bit premature imo, the new manager has barely been in the door for 5 minutes and Delap may end up important under him. I am not making my mind up on him until at least the end of the season...

If Cucurella and Rob Sanchez can turn it around when used right / given time, I am willing to give Delap a chance as well. He may yet have a useful squad role. He is a different profile to anything else we have had in years.

It's not premature, the hard facts are we bought a 30M championship striker that is way off what we need playing with one striker. 

I cannot judge Delap just on Rosenior's tenure, it has to be from the start, and based on that he has scored one goal in the PL and one in the CL accompanied by a red card. An overall on field performance is he has been shite, not offered anything of note and sort of typifies our middle of the road transfer policy of buying total and utter dross.

He has had 2 coaches already and both of them succesfully managed him before(Man City and Hull), still he seemed out of depth for both.

Gittens has sucked so far but I can see the talent in him and believe he can eventually come good, however Delap just seems to lack quality.

I said this to other players before like Rudiger or Cucurella, I hope I will be dead wrong again, let's see.

Say it.

According to the comment above which describes the settlement, Chelsea are entitled to 20% of Liverpool's profit from a future transfer, not 20% of the total transfer fee the reds might receive. So the calculation would be based on the fee Liverpool receive minus the basic and any bonus they paid to Chelsea.
