McCormick Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 I wasn’t talking about priorities. Regardless of what they’re doing with Chelsea, they’d still want to maximize the value of NUFC so as to get their investment to appreciate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could easily go and play for a real side in a real league!! Tbf I think he did say he couldn’t play for another European club (but that might just be faux emotional bullshit to cover the greed). “Inter Miami” for goodness sake.

Guest Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 Callum Roberts from Aberdeen to Scunthorpe. Weird career. Blyth was far too small for him, Notts County was probably perfect for him. Fair play taking the chance of going to Aberdeen but Scunthorpe again seems like he's went one or even two leagues under his ability. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solitude20 Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 I don’t get why we think it is about helping Chelsea. The saudi clubs are getting players from everywhere whether it’s from EPL teams or elsewhere. Should they ignore players from Chelsea just to avoid this narrative?

Deuce Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 (edited) It’s a “buying Chris Wood will help Burnley!” redux. Chelsea would’ve found a way to offload the players they needed to and bought the players they wanted with or without the Saudis. If anything, moving quality players to Saudi Arabia who might’ve otherwise been sold to another PL club is a benefit to us.

They aren’t terrible players who no one would want, the likes of Kante, Koulibily etc where always going to be wanted. yeah but who was going to match the wages they are on at chelsea.

Jaqen Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 Yeah Chelsea made some terrible signings on crazy wages that they'd have struggled to give away. The fact that they are getting all the wages shifted and big fees for some of them is a bit annoying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They made bank in the 17/18 window with Sanchez, Giroud and AOC amongst others but they spent a similar amount in the same window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t a big deal then, but it is a big deal now? I have worse examples: Lukaku for 100m, Antony for 90m, Maguire for 80m, and Coutinho for 135m.

Koulibaly is already on 300k salary with Chelsea btw. People have already explained that nobody but Saudi would pay all of his wages or offer a fee let alone the whole amount they paid. What’s not clicking? The only other offer is a loan and about 50% of his salary. Chelsea would accept a free if it meant the whole wages were gone. They might be able to shot 2 or 3 of these.
