Still want to know how Chelsea can sign all of these players for over £500m and nothing said?

Well they do sell well.

 

[Grays_1890]

Well they do launder well.

Agree

The buys amortised over those silly long contracts....then selling just Mount for £55m is 100% profit as he's home grown goes a long way.

Plus Boehly has literally saved the club by skillfully failing to qualify for Europe and avoiding their spending rules this season. The PL rules are more generous.

8 year contracts so the amortisation will be divided over that length. They have sold £253m worth of players this summer. They are fine.

Pfft.......

Or should that be Pif.

£38m for Barnes sounds like decent value.

For who? Think its a pretty decent deal for Leicester

I guess I don’t know the contract length he still had at Leicester. Maybe he only had a year(?) in which case yea it’s decent for them.

I was more simplistically pegging it against Mount, Havertz, etc going for 60+

Would be a good squad swap for Davinson Sanchez. Increases our association trained player count as well as being an upgrade in terms of quality.

Sessegnon is more likely in a swap perhaps?

That was on the cards before his injury

It’s just a sensible all round signing
The kind that we need to make

15m cash or 20m + Sanchez?

Yes, think he could push pressure on Romero for the RCB position, particularly in Romero hair-brained spells

I think Mount and Havertz were monumentally overpriced, whereas selling Barnes for £38m is merely 'full'

I dont think barnes is a bad player, but not sure he's good enough to be a starter if they're aspiring to be a top 4 team...in which case £38m for a squad player feels quite a lot

I don't think @Finney Is Back meant a swap deal...just swap Dav out of the squad for this guy?

Swapping him out for PEH would be better energy and quality in midfield.
