Madueke, Chukwuemeka, Veiga, Amougou, Petrovic, Moreira, Angelo, Maatsen, Hutchinson, Hall, Gallagher, Mount, Ampadu, CHO etc. all at profits. Some huge profits

Half of them wasn’t even bought to sell though, and the rest bar chuka no one have two shits about or wanted them gone? All you hear on the radio rival fans this forum is all Chelsea do is buy young talent and sell them for profit!! We haven’t sold enzo we haven’t sold James cuca palmer gusto etc, yes we buy young players and sell them on, but players we normally buy for the first team the majority are still here

Maybe they weren’t bought to sell at first, but maybe they were? You cannot have a 50 man squad so it is natural they would have to sell some of these guys they bought, no?

And given how frequently we have been buying players since BlueCo have come in, you cannot say that it makes sense to buy another 4 or 5 players every window but they always do. In the same positions. So obviously some are bought with Strasburg in mind or loaning out or flipping for profit? No?

Naming like 3 of the 40 odd players we have signed under BlueCo means nothing (Cucurella one of the first buys when they weren’t going with the co sporting directors direction as they weren’t in place). There is clearly more than enough evidence that they have sold players, that they’ve signed maybe 6-12 months earlier. Whether its intentional or not, it has happened. Countless times.

Your getting fringe players and first team players mixed up, players Bought for the first team go in it, the young lads get loaned out or sold on after a year or so because they were never meant for the first team, that doesn’t make us only a club that after profit, it’s just a way of sustaining it

You’re the only one mentioning first team & fringe players specifically. Nobody else.

Why bother signing lots and lots of players if they have no intention of being part of this plan BlueCo apparently have? Its a business model. Everyone can see it.

These have no real ambition of competing at the very very top. As long as we get by and their making a healthy profit, BlueCo will be happy.

Obviously its same as the loan army except its instant profit, my point from the start is that isn’t why we are, fans make out we are only here to make profit and win nothing, but nothing supports that argument apart from the fact clubs have to make profit to be able to operate

Well the question is why are we spending so much on hoarding players in a certain age bracket? All low risk signings that can potentially improve or fetch a decent fee in a few years. 

Why are there so few or no quality signings being made the 26+ age bracket? Tosin and Disasi dont qualify in this category. They are both mediocre. And Tosin came on a free.

Maybe the justification provided is the fact that they've been burned by the likes of Sterling & Koulibaly, but boy, have they certainly tried to course correct in the most extreme direction.

I suppose it could be how any new business/plan starts, you have to spend money at the start to make money, any new business almost makes a loss on the first few years until its becomes self sufficient, would make sense at the start to buy a huge amount so you can start the revolving door, think as these players as stock, we should by now have the stock and hopefully we see less and less youngster bought simple to sell and not to play
