Conjo Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago Just now, midds said: Do City have a buy-back clause for Delap? If they do then I can see them buying him back and flipping him a week later for £50m+ if the interest in him is there If it's possible. Can they do that? Only if he agrees to it. He's not obligated to sign a contract with them even if Ipswich is obligated to accept any agreed buy-back fee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying we would win it but we would be in a race well past Christmas imo.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted 11 hours ago Share Posted 11 hours ago I honestly don't have a clue, I could really only list PL players with any confidence and there's no way we're signing all our squad from other PL clubs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats my fear with someone like Mbuemo. Brentford dont have to sell and he doesnt have a release clause so they can wait all summer and hope to force an auction. We need to do smart early business if possible Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had option to do that with Lavia and didn’t, so doubt they do it here. Strange club, especially when you put those clauses in and not use them.

Strange club, especially when you put those clauses in and not use them. Im imagining they’re releasing players who they expect aren’t going to reach their level. Adding a buyback clause is just a simple, cost free clause in case they got it wrong. Dunno what’s difficult to grasp about that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago It's fine having a buyback clause but only really means anything if the player actually wants to go back. If Chelsea are going to wave ridiculous money in front of a player, they'll more often than not get their man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingArthur Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago I would guess that most likely we will see some names not mentioned once in this topic, given Mitchell's contacts in Europe. We need so many bodies in, that we have to be clever. Eddie must understand that after what happened last summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lavia moved for more than clause (and they ended up spending money on chasing players of no better quality), and Delap will be same. Even before both, Porro and Luiz both had clauses which they turned down. What level do they expect the players to reach when they’re moving them onto lesser clubs, do well and then move on again, if they’re repeatedly not activating the clauses they put in.

Jewel Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago I dont want Semenyo, at the price he would cost. He's another run merchant. Good athlete, good at transitions and counter-attacks, but doesn't have the guile or technique to unlock a defence. We have a number of those types of players already. I hope we go after someone with a different profile. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
