Blues Forever 1,232 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Just now, Pizy said: So over the last 48 hours everything suggested that Cucurella was essentially a formality and that they’d happily accept £50m. That basically only a few minor details remained. Now we hear it’s not even particularly close and that £50m isn’t enough? 😒 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea_4_eva 1,182 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Seeing as how Boehly is planning for the future with the recent signings we have made, there is a slim chance we will sell Colwill without a buy back. Also didnt we offer £50M+? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesper 30,298 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Leipzig rejects €80 million offer https://www.bild.de/bild-plus/sport/fussball/fussball/rb-leipzig-klub-lehnt-80-mio-angebot-von-manchester-city-ab-80883650.bild.html Manchester City have made a £67 million bid for Chelsea target Josko Gvardiol https://astamfordbridgetoofar.com/2022/08/manchester-city-have-made-a-67-million-bid-for-Chelsea-target-josko-gvardiol/ According to Bild via SportWitness (h/t football.london), Manchester City have made an offer worth £67 million to RB Leipzig for Chelsea target Josko Gvardiol. The Cityzens will have to contend with the Blues for the signing of the Croatian youngster. The Stamford Bridge side are in dire need of defenders this summer. Gvardiol put in excellent performances last season. The 20-year-old was a rising prospect at Dinamo Zagreb. Leipzig got him last summer. Since then, the Croatian’s talent has been evident for everyone to see in the Bundesliga. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vesper 30,298 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Brighton can go fuck themselves anything above £50m is getting into Theo price land and Theo is FARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR better than the Spanish dwarf and AC Milan needs cash badly Fernando 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,994 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 I think at this point in the window with the season mere days away from starting we have to accept that we’re going to overpay for any PL player. No English club is going to want to lose their best player. But I’d much rather us overpay and get Fofana done. I love Cucurella but anything north of £50m is nuts.

chelsea_4_eva 1,182 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 True. And we already offered £50M+. They want Colwill without a buy back, so when we come back for him, they can pull this sht again. Never do bussiness with people who always move the goal posts, no bussiness is always better than bad bussiness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I get your point. We need to be more proactive against some opposition to finish higher up the table. Not sure if this is down to the system mind.

Pizy 18,994 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 On De Jong, it would kind of be insanely impressive if we pulled that off. The main reasons I’m extremely skeptical about it are that United not only have his former manager who seems hell bent on turning them into Ajax by targeting all his former players, but they can also offer silly, ridiculous wages that I doubt we’d go near. I’m seeing stuff about £400k a week which is absurd. Plus, he’d be treated like a savior and hero there. Would he turn that down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 3 at the back hence 343. 5 atb is completely different. Wings backs are attackers as well as defenders you lose put on 1 player with 3. If you get a decent ball playing centre half in the middle then you loose nothing. There is a reason 343 is one of the most attacking formations you can play lol just because Pep n klopp have success with 433 doesn't make it the superior formation lol.

It’s at the point of desperation for them and the humiliation of missing out on a guy they’ve been chasing for 3 months would turn that place toxic from day one.

Thank fuck TT realised how bad it was and still is. Edited August 3, 2022 by DDA MoroccanBlue, dimmas and Maravel21 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
