Selling club cannot refuse an offer at that level. exceptions for players under the age of 21. Like that idea. Also gives players on the edge of the squad bit more agency.

r0cafella Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I know we all hate Chelsea but what they are doing is really smart imo. The money is absurd it’s true but it’s nothing in the grand scheme of it. They found a loophlole and have taking massive advantage. It’s quite clear Boehly isn’t trying to make a profit in terms of trading he’s just trying to increase the valuation of the club for a sale in the long term. Given we haven’t utilised the full financial clout of the PIF I’m guessing we are more of an investment than a sportswashing vehicle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillDanceForChocolate Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I'll be honest, AFCB have had worse windows. Hopefully we get them all over the line. Then we only need a new manager, for all the new signings to somehow instantaneously gel and a few lucky results so we stay up this season. Then it could get really interesting.

If any of these players end up permanently injured or not suited to the premier league, they are stuck with these 10-20 mill pound per year wages for another 8 years.

toontownman Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 It's incredible stress on the manager and coaching staff. So much turnover, so much pressure for immediate results and for new players to gel with so many current players potential upset at being cast aside and pushed down the pecking order. Real fine margins. Huge risk for reward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea will have to stop and relax a bit for the next few windows as FFP is over a 3 year period. I think Todd is trying to cram it all in as soon as possible. If it doesn't come off they'll be in trouble season after next. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 How many of these new players can Chelsea register for the Champions League? Wouldn't put it past them finishing 8th or something and winning it. Also, would that fuck us over if we finished 4th? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
