Yes we do, we spent x on Barnes and didn’t spend x on a left back or right winger. 
 

If we go back a year most of this forum wanted those positions filled as a priority. 

 

If we'd sold ASM and not bought another LW there'd have been major questions asked.

Disagree, at the time of that sale we still had Isak, Gordon, Big Joe and Little Joe who could play on the left.

 

The pickings are a lot slimmer on the right.

He's been good when he's played. You can't overlook the fact he's been unavailable for the majority of his time, his price tag, resale value and the fact it wasn't a priority position when evaluating the transfer though...

 

Also he wasn't a 21 year old, he was 26. That means every season lost through injury has a bigger negative impact on his resale value so he really had to hit the ground running.

 

That's not to say he can't still be fantastic for us, but the jury is still out somewhat after his first season.

Lies!

 

You only have to look at what was being said when we were linked with Chalobah last summer.

 

Tomori and Guehi did not have anywhere near the reputations they have now, back then.

Both were highly rated tbf. Most people said at the time, Guehi was a coup for Palace.

Very strange that. 

Made an enquiry? Which is then leaked. No bid.

Not really sure what they're trying to do other than maybe unsettle the player. 

Chelsea can get in the bin.

How many hotels would they need? That would be worse than depressing, no matter how much we rinsed them for.

I doubt they're the only ones. Not remotely concerned.

I think other teams smell blood given our FFP situation. Legit better off taking points deductions than selling our jewels on the cheap. 

[LRD]

Give us three players of our choice then, Todd.

I don’t think we could take 3 players from them and fill the void tbh.

The narrative on here would have been, we shouldn't be buying Chelsea cast offs, and we shouldn't be giving them money.

 

Then as soon as they go somewhere else and do well people start fawning over them, and claiming they were highly rated back then and would have been considered good signings.

 

When Chalobah goes down the same sort of path, I'll remind you.

Chill kaka, we bought hall and it was heralded. Things are a bit more nuanced man.

They would have to shut down the whole club if this happens.

 

But at least we'd get to keep Minteh!

[CheikBoom]

Weren't they unable to pay the Olise clause?

[Geogaddi]

The worrying thing about that enquiry is that they would never have made one unless they had been given some form of encouragement from Isak or his more likely his agent .
