Transfer Business at Other Clubs (aka the other Wish List)

Klaus

I thought so too but apparently they've struggled to keep payments for players all season. Not sure what happened there. Did the investors back out?

Timbob

Cazorla was reportedly our number 1 target last summer. I wanted him more than I wanted Mata, brilliant footballer.

Clrnc

Carzola was prolly the best player in La Liga outside the top 2 last season.

Ok, but don't you think it would be more relevant to say something about Cazorla's season in this context? 🙂

Shady

Guardian saying Hulk -> Chelsea for £38M :/ Mad price.

Mirth

Here's hoping Asa's prediction comes true.

Ray

Marin, Hazard and Hulk in one transfer window, wenger would faint if he spent that much, he would probably stop at marin. Man city bought the league and now chelsea are doing it again. Abramovic should just become the manager 😆. Chelsea and City are aiming to become the new Arsenal and United.

Captain

Thought Abramovich was tightening the purse mate?

Chelsea's spending will be higher than City's since abu dhabi took over if that deal goes through.

Ray

Thats what i thought too, that cl win must have renewed abramovics interest in wanting to buy trophies, especially after seeing man city take his crown. If they didnt win the cl, players like hazard would not have even looked at chelsea and they would have had drogba and lampard for another season.

Captain

😆

Abramovich never stopped spending.

Klaus

Not this again. 😆

Abramovich has spent a good £82.800.000 in the last two transfer windows. The season before that he spent £99.300.000. Those sums does not include wages.

Clrnc

He did mellow down abit last 2 or 3 seasons, with only Torres the exception. Seriously Chelsea are buying such good players we are really miles apart now.

EDIT: Actually, no there was still Ramires and Luiz. Its just that Citeh overpowered them so much it gave us a false impression.

Captain

Big names, whether they are good or not is yet to be seen. At least they are smart signings.

Ray

Ok not this again, imo if chelsea had not won the cl they would not be making title challenging signings, im going to leave it at that.

Hazard - Mata - Hulk behind probably a new CF? Fuck off.

How can we possibly compete? Not that I'm surprised but I gather that FFP really will have no effect, then?

Captain

They wouldn't have signed Hazard but they would have got someone else equally as good. Just the way the cookie crumbles; 50 odd mill every window without fail.

They may still be okay funnily enough.

spend money better than chelsea. hulk is not worth 38 mill. not even close.

there are a lot of good players out there who i think are within our budgets and would help us mount a serious challenge next season.

Timbob

Hazard isn't worth £32 million either. Torres, Mata, Hazard and Hulk for £150 million is stupid. Great in Championship Manager, in real life the most over priced front 4 going.
