Chelsea article unpaywalled 

 

basically they’d be banned from Europe next season not this one 

 

So you could potentially finish 6th and qualify for the Champions League if they're one of the top 5 and we have one of the best two co-efficients this season?

These punishments are utterly toothless.  What’s a year out of Europe if you can continue to spend at will? Has to be 5-10 years.

 

One poor season can do that for you anyway.

Uefa aren’t as draconian when it comes to punishments as the PL is. The rules are stupid to begin with.

At least UEFA are actually trying to close all these loopholes and stop teams taking the piss, basically in the PL if you are a big 6 club you can do what you want until UEFA get involved.

The pl clubs choose not to close this, they had the chance and declined, it’s on the teams.

What a massive cunt

[Nucasol]

Such a toxic club. Even more dislikable under the Yankee Private Equity cunts than a Russian mobster.

I really hope there is some delicious Schadenfreude coming as we finally watch it all collapse for them. The two teams I dislike the most in the Premier League are Chelsea and Man U.

[WilliamPS]

Man Utd must be spending north of 200m this window, whilst NUFC can’t afford a RW due to “fairness” rules written by clubs like Man Utd

 

I respect Chelsea’s contempt for PSR and wish them the best in their legal fights 

[gbandit]

Aye, fingers crossed Chelsea come out of this alright. Would be devastating if the club that has done more to ruin football than any other club had to face some kind of consequences 

[WilliamPS]

Ruin football? How have they done that? 

[gbandit]

Corrupt Oligarch ownership not even given a second thought, money laundering, huge debts for the club, massive inflation of player transfer fees, total abuse of the loan system, corrupt financial dealings to avoid PSR. You can say what you want about some of their efforts being “legal” but that’s mainly because they’ve had tons of money and regulators have been either too weak, or too poorly resourced to actual look at them. All their actions have worsened football as a product

We've sold £107m worth of players, most of them homegrown talent so good for PSR. We've spent £147m on Zirkzee, De Ligt, Mazraoui and Yoro.

 

Our net spend this window is roughly £40m.

Maresca's personality certainly suits Chelsea

I'm not sure I've seen an example of a manager being so cold about players who have done nothing wrong. His comments almost read like satire.

"Right listen you lot, Palace, shut up and sit down, nice top Brighton but be quiet.....anyway what we want is for you lot to agree to what we want. I'll tell you why, if you dare challenge us we fuck off with Juve and Real, yes the punters won't like it but there's money there that we'll control. You'll make your own TV  deal but come on, how much will Sky pay for Brentford=Forest every week, you need us so swallow the devil's Dick before you become an Eredivise, there's good  chumps.

How much is Ugarte signing for?

£42m + £8m in add ons.  Still chances for Sancho, Lindelof and Eriksen to leave. Either way our max net spend will be £80-90m but likely lower when Sancho almost certainly goes.

 

Newcastle's currently £43m plus whatever Vlachodimos cost? There's not a great deal in it. 

 

Just not liking the idea that we're out splashing money like Chelsea. We've bought and sold very well. The Ashworth effect.

Man Utd blow huge amounts on wages and transfer fees, usually the biggest spenders in the league. I don’t like Chelsea on the pitch but recognise they are just trying to deal with the totally artificial constraints on spending which are designed to protect the spending power and profits of the likes of Man Utd and Liverpool. Good luck to them and Man City

 

Man Utd apologists will get out their calculators and make up all sorts of silly sums to pretend they aren’t the biggest transfer spenders as usual, but the truth is they will spend double NUFC in wages and transfer fees/amortisation again this year (500m+ vs 250m), and like last year, finish below. If it was a level playing field they’d finish 20 points below.

I reckon Chelsea spend another £100M tomorrow.

 Biggest spenders because they have the biggest incoming, not built on years of unhindered spending to make them a brand then gaming system. Hope they, Chelsea, get done for the hotel stuff.
