Other Clubs Transfers Gossip 2023

Coombs

Meatwad so Mbappe failing to realize his potential, sacrificing his sporting ambitions, and cowing to racists is going to change Spanish culture?

Also, Spanish culture is not a monolith, and includes a long, rich history that's deeply entwined with Africa. A pack of racists in football stadia and league boardrooms doesn't change that. That's not to say it isn't a problem, but I'm not sure how letting them dictate how people live their lives is going to help.

Qwiss not world class unless he's proven it in a real league like Spain or Qatar.

Gunner89

Mbappe seems exactly the sort who puts money over ambition.

He's 26 at the end of the year and still in france. Could have joined a top club ages ago.

Extremely strange way to say he's 25.

Claudius

Gunner89 not sure it’s just money over ambition. I remember being in France a year ago, and the news headlines were about Mbappe’s conversations with Macron. France, Europe had a lot of issues to deal with at the time, so it was startling to see this footballer’s future as the main item on the news. So it feels like much more than money. He means so much to the league, fans, politicians etc.

I guess the Emir and Macron are meeting to discuss Hamas, Israel, and Palestine and this was some side show party for other influential French people to meet the Emir. I guess Perez better get the King of Spain, Nadal or someone to match them!

Coombs What's the point of being a billionaire?

Need another thread on "what amount of money would make you happiest". After basics are met, more money reduces friction. But at another point it must induce more worry, so you need more to overcome that, which becomes a self defeating cycle.

I'd be happy with 10m...

Clrnc

They have burst FFP by a huge margin, how are they going to spend again without selling? Surely if they buy Nico Williams they have to sell their home grown talents.

Colwill, Gallagher will be great signings.

We can resurrect Mudryk, Enzo, Caicedo too

Pepe LeFrits

Clrnc Gallagher

ew, don't want.

Qwiss

Gallagher is ok but think about it logically, if you sign Gallagher do you really think a Rice, Gallagher, Odegaard midfield is an upgrade on what we have?

I also wouldn't touch Mudryk. Still looks way out of his depth technically and in terms of game intelligence.

Claudius

Qwiss I like Enzo, Caicedo, Gusto, Nkunku.
Enzo/Caicedo in for Partey, Gusto snort fullback option, and Nkunku if you flipped Trossard.

Qwiss

Claudius yeah Gusto looks good. I'd still take Caicedo too and I think Enzo is similar in that Chelsea don't have him playing anywhere close to his level. Nkunku injury problems put me off him.

I wouldn't take any of them though because their wages are all above their value. That's the real problem with signing from Chelsea.

goon

Chelsea won't sell the likes of Enzo or Mudryk with without getting back close to what they paid, otherwise they'd have to book big losses, which will only hurt their FFP cause.

WIll most likely be home grown players like Gallagher, Collwill or anyone who wasn't a recent, big buy.

QuincyAbeyie

Colwill would be a huge get, partly because he's homegrown. Not where I would go big in the summer though, and I'd imagine he'd cost a lot.

Clrnc

QuincyAbeyie If we sell Zinchenko we should get him. Imagine him in the Kiwior role. Big upgrade

Pepe LeFrits

Chelsea post a loss of 90m for the most recent financial year. Ouch. Wonder who they'll offload next summer

JazzG

I think the homegrown players get them out of trouble so you'd think Conor Gallagher is the one they'd look to offload. Be interesting how it works out because clubs will know they are desperate to sell or risk sanctions.

Claudius

Chelse thought they were being smart with their instant noodles approach to team building, and these multi-year deals. But both of these tools have backfired.

It pains me to see Chelsea and United, these great clubs being run into the ground. So sad!

Qwiss

Claudius I am so so sad

JazzG

Claudius It pains me to see Chelsea and United, these great clubs being run into the ground. So sad!

Utd are a great club, Chelsea are for me everything that is wrong with football.

Though I am thoroughly enjoying both their suffering! Utd look like they're getting their shit back together though.

Meatwad

Claudius
ok great club chelsea f.c. 2003-2022

Mirth

Claudius It pains me to see Chelsea and United, these great clubs being run into the ground. So sad!

pain from laughter you mean?

I slightly miss having United as direct rivals but I'd be quite happy to see Chelsea drift into obscurity forever.

lorddulaarsenal

Terrible ain’t it.

Chelsea literally have nothing to show for billions spent.

Clrnc

Qwiss Gusto is superb but we don't play with a RB or LB anymore. We need CBs that can invert

daredevil

Qwiss

Bloody gutted mate.
