Must suck to be Moyes now, Everton never flashed that kind of cash in his regime.

So Lukaku the guy the got outshone at the worldcup and has done literally feck all for Chelsea has just sold for 30 million. There is some dodgy shit going on. Chelsea clearly are using this as a method to front their way past FFP. They "Pay 30" Chelsea will no doubt give them some money on the sly. This way have freed up 30 million from a "sale". Its so dodgy.
It is the Glazers own shares they are selling!
Yeah, that's certainly an opinion.
Yeah feel sorry for him because he gave them £27m of that cash.
I said Fergie saw Hernandez as the most expendable. I stand by that.
He was generating that kind of cash when City started buying their players a while ago but never re-invested it in any meaningful way. He was making do with strikers like Saha on a free, Hugo Rodallega etc.
I dont get it....so we will have owners in the Glazers, but then they will sell some of that ownership? who is then the voting party? why would anyone want to buy shares in something that has no value? So owners in the glazers selling some of their ownership and an earlier share float in which random companies own miniscule shares in the club?
My head is spinning.
Fergie saw Rooney as the most expendable.
People buy shares because they think its a valuable investment and as long as the Glazer family trust owns more than 70%, they will remain the decision making owners of the club.
There were some publicly owned shares (NY stock exchange listed and tradeable) and some privately owned shares (Glazers).
Now there will be slightly more public and slightly less private.
What's hard to understand?
#SaintRyan indeed
I thought he was off to Liverpool
Thanks. I just needed the run down in lamens terms. So all in all why would anyone do this and what benefit/Hinderance to the club could it have?
Shaw's replacement? They were linked with Marcos Rojo, but have ended up with Bertrand on loan 
oh dear, another shit news for Soton fans.
oh dear, another shit news for Soton fans.Why - it's a good deal for Southampton.
I guess he will be soon.
Its a little strange, they have shit loads of cash from all the sales they have made and have just taken a player who is sort of on the fringes on loan?
He's a very good LB in my opinion. Screams penny pinching though.
Haha
They will get it back when they sell James McCarthy to us for £40m on the last day of the window.
Haha.
Doesn't bode well for the Southampton fans who think they'll splash the cash this summer, although Bertrand is decent
Funnily enough if Vidal was in a photo like that we'd be saying he looks happy to stay, but it seems Chich is on his way.
Seems legit
Maybe they would have, but he could never make up his mind.
From having some top young talents at their club they're now loaning in other young players from other clubs who will no doubt feck off after a season. Feel sorry for their fans, I'd be fuming.
I disagree. Always thought he is much better coming off the bench, he has rarely impressed me starting games to be honest. I like him and think he is a great option on the bench....but he doesnt seem to like this anymore, I think his confidence has been affected by a lack of starts and appearances.
I do think as a box player he is very good and I do like him for his effort and how he comes across but I do think its probably best for him and the club to move on. Interesting to see how he does at another club starting, hope he does well.
He's thinking 'where the feck is everyone else?'
Why do people buy shares in companies? To make money.
Benefit/hinderance to the club? I don't know the details so not entirely sure but if as said above Glazers keep above the controlling limit then it shouldn't have much affect on the club at all.
It's apparently with an option to buy. I didn't want Bertrand at Liverpool, but he's a decent enough player. He's relatively young, English and has room for improvement.
He wasn't convincing at Aston Villa so I was hoping Chelsea would be stuck with him
