RodneyCisse Posted June 11, 2024 Share Posted June 11, 2024 Just seen that Luiz deal and can’t help but think Villa don’t want to progress. That price too, proper bonkers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack j Posted June 11, 2024 Share Posted June 11, 2024 Can only think Luiz has some form of betting charges hanging over him.or some shit Absolute shocking deal for villa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All good here, nothing to see in the World’s Most Competitive League. It's a fair point, buts it's also fair to point out that players can say no to any move.

That price too, proper bonkers. The fact the deal is concluding in June makes me think it’s an FFP/PSR fire sale. Luiz had 2 years left on his contract and would be after a bumper deal. Sell him now. Don’t know how the accounting will work out but they might be able to claim at as a £50m transfer with the other players as add-ons to the fee. I don’t know how that one works out. IMO it’s the type of sale Ashworth might’ve done for Joelinton if we needed the FFP/PSR headroom. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted June 11, 2024 Share Posted June 11, 2024 Pretty sure Brummie has said that the amortisation on Luiz is already done, so selling him is that 'pure FFP profit' that their owner talked about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted June 12, 2024 Share Posted June 12, 2024 Seems like Juve want Greenwood and want rid of Chiesa who has 1 year left. If ever was the time to make a bid.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted June 12, 2024 Share Posted June 12, 2024 Villa having to sell Luiz in a rush, for under market value because of stupid rules in place to stop clubs challenging is genuinely sickening. I could somewhat understand it if they hadnt made CL but they have. Its an absolute disgrace and is completely ruining the league. Im not sure if I can be arsed with it all while anti-competitive FFP remains in place. Its all we ever fucking hear about. Killing my enjoyment of it. You hear way more about the business side of the game than the actual players and football itself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted June 12, 2024 Share Posted June 12, 2024 They're also selling Duran and Cash seemingly for good money. To be honest all seems like good moves early to me - clearing headway for significant investment. This is what we're struggling to do given lack of interest in our players.

Just wait till the Villa fans realise they could potentially get less money for doing better than City, Arse or Pool in the CL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I do agree with your general point re FFP. If we are maneouvring around PSR constraints then that's understandable. Also, looks like Chelsea are giving us 40m for Jhon Duran. He's very promising but apparently a nightmare in training and prone to petulance, something even other players have hinted at. 15 - 40m in a year is good going.

KaKa Posted June 12, 2024 Share Posted June 12, 2024 That McKennie is a decent player and Emery will get a tune out of him. He's had some good seasons at Juve. That loan at Leeds was a blip in comparison. And Illing-Junior is highly thought of and we've even been linked with him a fair bit. He's really young too. Those two plus £20 million for Luiz is not a bad deal for Villa at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted June 12, 2024 Share Posted June 12, 2024 (edited) That's 2 years in a row Chelsea have overpaid for a Villa fringe player for no reason you can point to beyond Chelsea's hateful oniomania. Edited June 12, 2024 by Kid Icarus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted June 12, 2024 Share Posted June 12, 2024 If Chelsea's plan upfront is to have Jackson and Duran that is a good sign. I like both players, but neither are fully polished or fully reliable enough to lead the line as the main man yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted June 12, 2024 Share Posted June 12, 2024 (edited) Actually, thinking about it, I reckon PSR in general will bring down market prices considerably this summer. Less money doing the rounds will do that. Although obviously, Chelsea can just sell themselves another house or something.

GeordieDazzler Posted June 12, 2024 Share Posted June 12, 2024 Ndombele cancels his contract at Spurs. From a PSR perspective does that mean his remaining cost is all in this period or does it remain in the following years even if he’s not longer there?
