Romeo Lavia | Chelsea bound?

How are Chelsea getting away with FFP? Lavia, Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez. They buy everyone them, doesn’t matter what position, it feels like they don’t have an actual transfer strategy and they just sign players to stop other teams getting them. Joke of a club. Players wanting to join them have low standards. A team that finished 12th :lol:
 
It is fairly clear if they do sign Lavia and Caicedo that they have decided to ignore FFP and plan to attack any sanctions with an army of lawyers. I guess they are looking at 115 Charges FC and realizing that FFP and the new profit and sustainability rules are an empty threat.

I will not claim to understand the intricacies of FFP but so far and on paper, Chelsea sold for more than they spent this summer. If they throw 160m£ at Caicedo and Lavia obviously this will change, but taken in isolation the net spend wouldn't be too insane yet (-130m£ or so ?).

What about the £600m they spent last summer?
 
Hate Liverpool but really despise Chelsea.

I’m here hoping we can get a cheap Amrabat in whilst the teams around us are doing or trying to do a madness!

It’s also gone all quiet on that front, which has me slightly worried.

At this point, I'm not even sure we could call them a club and frankly, this has been the case for the last 20 years.
 
Chelsea are actually taking the piss this window :lol: Is anyone even bothering to keep count on how much they've spent anymore?

Fecking madness

Gutted to see Lavia go without us even attempting a bid. Almost a sure thing to be a top player worth double his current fee within 12 months.

Yeah well we obviously weren't interested,Amrabat is gonna get a really rough ride from you if we do actually sign him that much is crystal clear
 
I think it'll be hilarious if Chelsea end up getting Caicedo after Liverpool put a transfer record bid in, and then also sign Lavia who Liverpool have been negotiating over for several weeks. :D

Mate I have no idea what’s going on. I stopped following it earlier in the day to get some work done. Was way too distracting. Feels like I’ve sat through 2 back to back deadline days :lol:
 
Looks like exactly what I said may happen and Chelsea gets both lavia and Caceido. That is exactly what Pochettino needs to rebuild his midfield.

----------------Lavia/Ugo/Santos
Caceido/Gallagher - enzo/Chuku

----Caceido/lavia/Ugo -------- Enzo/Gallagher/Santos
Kudus/madueke - nkunku/chuku - mudryk/maatsen

Makes a lot of sense and will make chelsea more competitive. I will be surprised though if lavia also rejects Liverpool. I don't know what pulling these players to Chelsea beside their manager, they must have an amazing project, money and/or they grew up supporting chelsea
 
So Chelsea are getting FFP penalties right? I have never seen a team spunk money in January like they did earlier this year but here we are again watching them going nuts :wenger:

Money obviously

Nah, a lot of the players they are signing have raw potential. The only world class/top signing they have made will be Caceido and Nkunku. The rest of their signing are players that needs proper coaching to turn into elite players. Even Nkunku and Caceido are not the finished product, so there is no cheque book manager here.

Feck me I have almost no idea who most of those players are. Lavia/ugo/Santos and Nkunku/chuku sounds like names a random name generator have sprung out.

More than £800m spent in a year, without Lavia and Caicedo.

Had a few good sells too but still.

But he needs to spend £160m+ to on two midfielders to compete?

Fred was only announced after my post. Still not completely done yet - anything could happen, ask Tyler Adams who had a medical yet deal still fell through.
