Chelsea Transfers

Club is thinking financially ofc. 

Gallagher would be 50m pure profit and if you replace him with Adams for 20m on 5 year contract that is 4m per year.

If Gallagher goes, I go too. 

 

 

Right to whichever club is buying. Drop him off and everything.

Random Italian twitter accounts posting Vlahovic has agreed terms with us. Sigh.

Latest reports seemed to suggest we are leaning towards Olise rather than Kudus

because Kudus is going to Brighton

I have no problem with Olise as the RWer to share minutes with Noni

but Kidis is a better athlete, a better scorer, a better presser and can play any position up front, AMF, RW, LW (the place he would play the least), SS, and CF

IF we had purchased Kudus

then my final buys

would have been (and this is also predicated on selling Sterling to KSA, CuCu to KSA, Ziyech to KSA, Gallagher to whoever will pay £45-50m,  Trevoh to whoever will pay £25 to 35m so, and also sell CHO, and Malang Sarr, total intake for all of those combined at least £160 to maybe even £180m):

then I would have bought

Caicedo (£90m) can play DMF and CMF

Kudus (£34m) can play anywhere up front

Mohamed Simakan  (£30m) solid, athletic, CB and also a very good RB

swap deal with Juve (Rom plus £25m for Vlahovic)

total gross spend for those four (£184m)

net spend £4m to £24m, depending on how much we get for the sales I listed

add in £20m negative wobble  just to be conservative

and you have £24 to £44m net spend for a worst case scenario

lower wages and 4 vital, (with 3 of them versatile AF) players

 

updated as I forgot Ziyech

add in selling Broja and worst case scenario

is a net profit of £6m to only £14m net spend or so

I don't disagree, would've preferred Kudus as well

[We Hate Scouse 10,261]

Well, Ampadu looks absolutely awful on his debut for Leeds

[MoroccanBlue 5,219]

Olise must be preferred for his creative metrics.

I will pay the petrol and get him a full body massage from a Mayfair outcall brass as a parting gift if we pull £50m for him

room at The Cumberland, steps away from the Marble Arch tube

easy off, easy on

Yes football is a business, you sell players for maximum profit if they do not have the skill set or mentality to help you be a top team.

Judging by how much Gallagher was used in preseason, how often he’s talked about his love for our club and how much he wants to stay I don’t think he’s going anywhere. All rumors of his departure have ceased as well. Looks like Poch finds him useful. 

Adams seems like the kind of midfielder you can bring on for or one of the attacking players later in matches when you want to see out a result. If we’re a goal up or just want to protect an important point away from home against a top team you can bring him on and he’ll be useful. 

One has to leave for Adams to come in. (assuming Caicedo is already here). 

Reckon Adams only comes in if an insane offer comes for Gallagher. We are covering our bases by inquiring for Adams.

Olise just seems very Ziyech-like to my eye. A right winger who’s REALLY good at whipping in crosses from open play and set pieces but not a whole lot more. He’s bigger and more athletic than Ziyech of course so you won’t see him getting easily brushed off the ball, I guess.

He just feels like more of a luxury player to me. And if we’re interested in that I’d much rather go and get Cherki.

Far better dribbler than Ziyech, more physical and better defensively.
