Basically broke even on Havertz and pocketed 20m for Mount. It's not a terrible outcome. I do feel like they've mis-managed Mount. Havertz I'm less convinced by, personally, but given he made a name for himself as a 10/winger seems a bit daft to use him as a false 9. 5 hours ago, Rich said: Interesting. I find it telling we didn't go back. The fee appeared to be around that 40-50m mark and on paper he's a standard number six that can also drop into defense if needs be.

He’s shite that’s why, might be versatile but bang average at that price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieDazzler Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Had a strong season for Villarreal, 15 in 35 so could be half decent. Was meant to sign for Bournemouth in Jan but failed his medical. Chelsea are paying £12m more than Bournemouth were. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viewfromtheafternoon Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 (edited) Nkunku and Jackson seems more money wasted by Chelsea. 85m for a couple of wide forwards in the mould of Sterling,Pulisic, Mudryk etc that they seem to have loads of. They could have used that 85m and not been far off Kane/Osimhen etc or a similar out and out centre forward to lead the line which is what they need Edited June 24, 2023 by Viewfromtheafternoon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeEd32 Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 I like all of these players so not knocking them, but City, Arsenal, Man United, and Chelsea fighting over the dealings of Rice, Mount, and Caicedo while we shuttle in an Italian international from AC Milan is very enjoyable.

Astroblack Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 I specifically remember Man Utd being heavily linked with Caicedo before he joined Brighton. Think they could have had him for £4 million. Now they’ll have pay 20 times that. They just love wasting money. Pogba, Sancho, list goes on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
