We got a decent loan fee for Veiga and tbh he is playing regularly there. Not a bad move when you look into the loan fee received and the fact he is playing regular football and also featured in the UCL for Juve too.

The message being sent to the playing group is confusing.  You sign Veiga and 6 months later, you need to loan him out.    Then with Chalobah, the club tells him he's not required, goes to Palace and then with injuries, we recall him and everything is supposed to be fine between player & club? 

Even Felix gets brought in and 6 months later he's keen on a move away and the club lets him go on loan (knowing full well that we have no attacking options available other than watching Nkunku walk around the pitch).

There is absolutely no chance we get CL playing like we do and with the run-in we have......no chance.

You could easily put Haaland into that category. However, I'm sure you'd consider him despite that.

Haaland is indeed perhaps the only exception I can think of in world football where you might justify spending big money on him despite very obvious limitations, although its interesting that City have collapsed this year, in a way they have never collapsed in all of the years in which they had more complete players up top.

Mathys Tel could become a Chelsea target again if Spurs do not take up their buy option. (@JacobsBen)

Literally haven’t heard Tel’s name once since he joined Spuds in January. What a horrendous target he would be for us. Just as he was when we wanted him last time. Nonsensical. 

[mkh 376]

Chelsea are expected to be busy in the period of June 1 - June 10th. CFC want their winger AND striker signing ready for the Club World Cup. (Ben Jacobs)

N.Williams, Gittens and Tel were mentioned in the article.

Well if he does the business, its money well spent. Lets be real.

We are paying Reece James a minimum of 250k a week, who barely plays more than 15 games a season. Not to mention the wages of Lavia and Fofana also on top who NEVER play mote than 15 games a season. If we offload Sterling also who is on 250-300k a week. And Kepa. More wages free’d up. On top of the wages we have saved since BlueCo ran us from CL winners to Conference League wankers. 

You have to pay top dollar for top players if you want to go far. And I think the fee for Oshimen will be a sticking point as it is anyway, so we won’t get to negotiating.

Wait and see, Liam Delap for £40m on 50-55k a week.

Wait and see though, Liam Delap for £40m on 55k a week. 

This is £88m in wages over 5 years

.£124m in wages over 7 years

hell no

We won’t be signing a player of that age on a 7 year deal though. Not a chance. 4 or 5 year deal maybe.

Would rather give that guy £88m in wages over 5 years and know we might get some actual bang for our buck in the present than persist with guys like Jackson and potentially Delap or Tel in the hope they might do something in 2/3 years.

What is the alternative though? Realistically if people expect us to do anything next season with both Nico and either one of Liam Delap/Mathys Tel then they are dreaming. If Nico had scored the chances he’d missed this season and last we would probably have gotten another 20-25 points since the start of last season.

Even the big Swedish lad from Sporting, he isn’t cut out to do it in the PL for a big club for me. Certainly not worth a gamble for the £70-80m they seem to be talking about anyway.

Maybe I am wrong but have seen plenty of strikers/attackers from Sporting, Benfica and Porto make these moves to other clubs and struggle to replicate anywhere near the levels they did or people thought they could. Likes of Darwin Nunez, Joao Felix, Jackson Martinez, Goncalo Ramos, Andre Silva, Fabio Silva. Then theres also the guys from Portugal who never make the move to a higher level league where people thought they’d be able to after pissing it up in Portugal, ie Hulk & Oscar Cardozo. Falcao, Di Maria, James, Fernandes, Luiz Diaz are really the only ones after Nani and Ronaldo that I can think of off the top off my head who did well in Portugal then moved to a better league and did well/better. Leao & Raphinha as well.

Delap is the ideal profile for these wankers, cheap, low wages, young and a huge gamble again on a striker with a burden of needing to score 25-30 goals a season

[mkh 376]

Chelsea made fresh contact with Feyenoord regarding the potential signing of 27yo defender David Hancko, who was recently named 🥈 in the Slovak Footballer of the Year awards.

Feyenoord are understood to be open to a sale, provided their €50M asking price is met.

Chelsea-linked Liam Delap's release clause will fall to £30M should Ipswich Town be relegated from the Premier League.
