Pizy 18,994 Posted August 30, 2024 Share Posted August 30, 2024 2 minutes ago, King Kante said: You do realise we are talking about a VO who wants insane money and the Brentford Bettor, Ivan Toney? I would actually say the Saudi club have saved us from ourselves. If Sterling goes today along with Lukaku already being gone I would’ve just offered to match his exact current Napoli wage. If he said no to that then fuck it, let him go to Saudi. But to still be proposing a loan move at this stage when he has said no all summer is stupid. Toney I couldn’t care less about. I was indifferent on him in particular but would’ve been happy that we signed a striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,889 Posted August 30, 2024 Share Posted August 30, 2024 (edited) 12 minutes ago, King Kante said: No, don't want him either. I am happy to roll with Jackson and the False 9's with Nkunku and Palmer. I am personally fed up of overpaying for average CF's (which is what VO is hence only us and Saudi being in for him, just like Toney.) I am certain if he came here he would be in the Lukaku category of needing to get rid and everyone lowballing within two years. Lets be honest, I do get the point your trying to make but realistically we are going to get nowhere with a false 9. And the itinerary all summer has been to recruit a striker alongside Guiu. Oshimen and Toney not perfect by any stretch but both much better than Jackson, Guiu and playing anybody as false 9s. Jackson couldn’t finish his dinner and Guiu needs to grow into first team football. Be a painful season again. Saudi’s not fucking about though, agreed deals for 2 players, if Oshimen doesn’t go they get Toney or vice versa. Ruthless.

I was indifferent on him in particular but would’ve been happy that we signed a striker. It is because the club are worried he will be a bust - with good justification in my mind. I am with them on this, we will take a punt on VO as a loan or he can go to Saudi. I don't think this is unfair. In addition, I also think he is vastly overpaid at Napoli and if this was reversed Napoli would be rinsing us saying his wages are too high.

Jackson couldn’t finish his dinner and Guiu needs to grow into first team football. Be a painful season again. I do get why people are worried. However, I am actually hopeful Jackson will improve as the season goes on and in Nkunku, Palmer and Felix I do feel there are enough goals with them in the F9 position. Sure it isn't perfect, but equally the Risk of handing either of those two big contracts is a bigger risk. Even if they came good, the squad would riot and demand massive increases. 4 minutes ago, mkh said: BREAKING: Strasbourg will sign Deivid Washington on a permanent deal for £17.6m. (@lequipe) OK, this isn't a surprise but equally I hope the club have a good case if people question this.

mkh 627 Posted August 30, 2024 Share Posted August 30, 2024 Chelsea to sell Brazilian striker Deivid Washington - whom they bought for €16m last year - to partner club Strasbourg for a little over €21m, according to L'Equipe. Deivid played 28 minutes for Chelsea.🤔 ChrissWTF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,994 Posted August 30, 2024 Share Posted August 30, 2024 I’m pissing myself laughing at this Deivid Washington deal. Everyone on Twitter that’s not a Chelsea fan crying about it 🤣🤣🤣 tbf, it is crazy that it’s allowed… mkh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,994 Posted August 30, 2024 Share Posted August 30, 2024 If Osimhen and Toney are off the table then DO NOT panic and sign anyone else! We should have more than enough firepower between Palmer, Jackson, Nkunku, Neto, and Felix to get us to January where we can survey the striker market again. Maybe by then someone unexpected will emerge that isn’t available now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,994 Posted August 30, 2024 Share Posted August 30, 2024 The talk now is that Sterling really could go to Arse. We 100% need his wages off the books but It really doesn’t feel right sending him there. Think he genuinely does very well in that team.

Special Juan 28,188 Posted August 30, 2024 Share Posted August 30, 2024 no green light from Osimhen to the Saudi's, they have agreed everything with Toney, they can't get both, it's one to us and one to them but which one. We are going until the end on this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMissEden 21 Posted August 30, 2024 Share Posted August 30, 2024 (edited) W Washington out on a perma to Strasbourg, it’s clear as day, no two ways about, blatantly and airtight, we are money laundering. No more wooha about the Roman period being cleaned up. Without the * that it’s being cleaned up with dirty hands lol Edited August 30, 2024 by IMissEden ChrissWTF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
