40m for him in 5 years is 8m per season for FFP purposes. Chalobah will be 30m pure profit now.

To be fair Vesper is listing every player on earth at some point 😝

Also very true but she definitely does her research which I appreciate

So:

Anonymous CB - ✔️

Midfielder - ❌

GK - ❌

well, in this way, we only need a goakeeper, midfielder and a attacking player and that's it.

So that's exactly where we had been when window started 😂

Ofc! Was just some banter 😄

I think our defense is sorted very well this year. Badiashile and Disasi have a solid chemistry since they played together at Monaco for more than 2 years. Colwill is a great prospect and could become our VVD. And then there is defensive Yoda who still got it and can guide the others.

Oh wow, so somebody clearly wasnt a fan of Chalobah. Maybe his passing is just not up to Poch's ideas

Matheus França sold to Crystal Palace. The youngster will undergo a medical examination on Monday and is expected to travel to England on Tuesday.

Good, I hope it's true. What those thick BHA fans don't understand when pegging Caicedo's valuation to Rice's, is that Rice comes with an English/HG tax that usually makes 20-30% of the fee. Caicedo holds no such value. What we offered for him was Rice money minus the English tax, MORE than fair. Now please fuck off, I hope they fucking fail this season.

The homegrown part is a nice little bonus but with the way homegrown status works, alongside England as a nation having a pretty deep pool of players currently both at senior and youth level, I actually think it relates more to trying to buy players from other premier league clubs, irrespective of English/HG status.

When the lower table sides in the league and even some Championship clubs have far bigger budgets and revenues than some pretty historic teams around Europe, it speaks volumes for the money swirling around in this country and as a result some of the 'smaller' clubs can quote hugely inflated prices for their best players.

Potential was there for sure. 

Most of it got destroyed by injuries or complacency tho

Timo is the only one from that list I wish was still with us. Cut that man and he bleeds blue, even now. Legend.

Does this signing of Disasi increase the chances of a swap deal with Brighton?

How?

[Pizy 18,368]

Okay, just finished watching a full video of Disasi. He looks incredible! I wasn’t expecting to see such a big guy be as technically good as he is. Having not seen much of him I was expecting a Zouma type. In other words, big and physical but pretty questionable with the ball.

Guess there’s a reason Ten Hag & Arteta were both interested in him. They like very technical CB’s.

This could be a bargain if he translates his game well to the PL. Could have our long term Thiago Silva successor signed a year early.

Brighton are desperate for us to include Colwill as part of the deal to sign Caicedo. Could Disasi be signed as Colwill's replacement?
