Mhsc 1,098 Posted August 16, 2024 Share Posted August 16, 2024 Not super fussed about the Gallagher/Felix deal, slight squad upgrade shipping out a non technical player who isn't suited to positional play to buy one who is, but has never really delivered on his potential. While I am optimistic we should be getting top 4 this year, signing a top striker or CB would really help a lot on this: Vesper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea_4_eva 1,182 Posted August 16, 2024 Share Posted August 16, 2024 If Osimhen is not willing to lower his wages (which is fair enough) and we aren't willing to break our wage structure (which is fair on our part also). Then that's that. I think the reason with us not interested in taking him permanently and on high wages is that we don't want it to turn into another Lukaku situation. Look how hard it is to ship him out. For me, while we do need a quality CF. I feel the need for a quality CB in his prime more urgent, unfortunately we will need to sell Disasi, Badi first and it doesn't seem like it will happen.

Fair enough if he wants to stay at Napoli. He is not really a wanted man, big teams don’t step on each other pursuing him. Same for Felix, neither his current and his previous two teams really want him, but his high wages are always highlighted. They are good players, but we shouldn’t break our back to meet their expected salaries, since nobody else willing to do so. If they want to join us, they can lower their wages, if not, then it’s their mother clubs problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Difference is with Felix, according to reports, he is willing to lower his wages to join us, which I think is a positive thing coming from a player.

He’s currently below £100k per week - compared to what we paid him during his loan here we are already saving a lot of money. mkh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just pretty much mirroring what others have said all week. I will say, if we get a positive result against City and then follow it up next week by brining in Felix and Osimhen, wow. Everyone will be buzzing around the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
