You have made a rod for your own back because after the massive spending of last summer I do not think you can afford to take a couple years to develop the team and squad under Poch. You kinda need top 4 this season.

You also paid silly money for players and some massive wages so that would be the expectation of selling clubs and incoming players.

Who is Khoudibally?

Well time will tell, you cant afford ?

I think these guys are going to spend again in this window.

The issue now is imo the pool of players available , this will also effect your, we know Mr Levy cant get his cheque out quick enough.

Hang on to Kane and watch him go on a free

Need top 4 , i would assume so, the only way Cfc will get a top 4 finish is if we buy 3/ 4 top quality experienced players.

In this market that will cost in excess of 300m ?

If the club put the investment in, then i think we can say the club believe we need top 4, if they don't then they must have an alternative strategy imo.

You keep saying 22997, fkn google it.

They have spent crazy money on questionable transfers and get reasonable fees back for those flops too, and good money for their youth and players like mount so teams like Brighton have every right to tell them to shove low bids like 70/80m for Caicedo when theyve spent 106m on Enzo, 100m on lukaku etc and got 60m for mount, 65m for their flop Havertz etc.

Caicedo to Chelsea, considering they got 60 for cucurella i imagine they wont budge for less than 100m.

Imagine teams looking at them, spending what they have and then getting 60m and 65m for mount in his last year contract and havertz. Can't blame clubs bending them over really.

Yeah im conflicted over dealing with Brighton anymore.

Yes we do need such a player, but i feel they are way to greedy, they want it all their own way, imo let the likes of LVP give them 100m.

Are you saying you dont rate Mount?

Wow if you don't, you need to brush up mate!

This is all that comes up:

Havertz, we had a touch, but Arteta may well get a tune out of him!

Henderson, bit over priced imo.

im saying 60m for a player wanting out in the last year of his contract is very good money. And that teams will know they have 125m in the back from 2 players already, and a further 100m from sales of mendy, pulisic, kovacic, koulibaly etc.

Koulibaly? Who's that? Are you referring to Khoudibally?

the flop cb they bought from Napoli was it? who just been sold to Saudis for a cut price?

wahl, do you also do grammer? by any chance

"D Forfana, out on loan Union Berlin costing 10.4m per season in wages"

You are confusing David Fofana with Wesley Fofana.
D.Fofana is in the low earning bracket, at 30k p/w which equates to just over 1.5m per annum.

I'm going to put it another way, How much do you think we could have got for Mount if he had had 3 or 4 years left on his contract. Even though I'd have liked him to stay, I can't see anyone paying us moe than 10 million more than we actually got for him. Think we got a good deal on both Mount and Havertz.

Spurs got Bisouma for £25m and LFC got MacAllister for £35, both before add-ons.

Chelsea spent more than both put together on Cucurella

Well for us we got lucky he had some kind of clause, dno about bissouma but that seems like a different market altogether than the current tbh. And i thought it was 35m for Bissouma? or was that potenatial addons idr.

Thank you Mf,
