CL revenue after many seasons out of it and they're selling Xhaka (20m +), Partey (probably still in 30m range) and then loads of fringe players like Balogun, Holding, Tierney and possibly Smith Rowe so that would bring in about 100m.

jacketspuds Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 In all the fun and games of our rumour mill I completely missed that Chelsea spunked £17m on some random Ecuadorean 16-year old. I am shocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshVilla Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 (edited) Brighton agreed to sign Mahmoud Dahoud on a free when his Dortmund contract expires next month. Decent signing, that. Edited June 16, 2023 by JoshVilla Added tweet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 He's alright, in our squad he'd replace dendoncker, would say the same for them but they've signed milner for that role so he'll probably play more for Brighton than he would for us Mixture of Brighton can do no wrong, him coming from dortmund and flirting with the german side - when in reality he played 100 games in 6 years and only has a couple of caps - he's a good squad signing, he's not a quality first choice starter for them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacketspuds Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Chelsea spending £100m on Caicedo and Nicolas Jackson. I wonder if they will start selling players soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicolas Jackson is very underwhelming signing if he's actually going to be their regular CF (of course being Chelsea they'll sign another ten attackers between August 15th-31st). Pretty sure Bournemouth and Southampton were nearly signing him in January. Last season he only hit two goals in La Liga up to April before having a very good end of season run so see if that was just a purple patch or sustainable.

Now fans are asking Fab, how did you not know about that then eh? He’s been getting shown up by Ornstein a lot. People prefer Ornstein because he doesn’t give us 300 updates of a whole lot of nothing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They then say how can we get the next Caciedo, and sign the best young player from the club he came from. Have they had an original thought since they got there?
