Dimmu Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 That's 20 million worth of playing skills, 65 of being English. Pure madness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maydrakin Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Maybe it’s due to the transfer being conducted in Euros, which makes the deal roughly £13.20 nowadays... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus the sell on fee they didn’t do bad at all from the £2.5m signing. Sheffield United might be kicking themselves though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a very interesting conversation with one of the players at work the other day about the managers job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why clubs just don't put a nominal % clause in all player contracts as a just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millenniumram Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Why in the High land of ducks would David Luiz want to go to banter fc?! Who’d want that move from Chelsea?! Obviously kicking up a fuss to be made to train alone, not very professional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compared the teams and managers and decided it's time to move for the good of his career/salary/ambitions? All that without having to move the city. Would he still get the game time he was looking for? Didn't feel wanted by the new management team? etc etc.. we can only guess but there can be quite a few justified reasons.

That would be a heavy blow to Lampard if he thinks arsenal are a better prospect, as I’m sure Chelsea can pay bigger wages. If Chelsea aren’t giving him game time/ don’t want him they’re mad- selling him to a London rival would be even madder. Seems mental to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems mental to me Maybe Chelsea/Lampard are building team way younger than lately? They would still have Christensen, Rudiger, Zouma and Tomori as a centrebacks, don't know how potential starplayers they have coming in young ones... Ampadu at least, but he'll be on loan.

I suspect that will be the aim, but to bin off a player of luiz’s quality before he’s truly finished would be criminal. All those centre backs are good players, but he’s better than all of them. Better to keep him until Ampadu and Tomori are truly ready than rush them in too early Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the younger ones won't improve without playing. I'd say now is perfect time for the change as Lampard should have a free pass this first season without transfers as an option. Play them and come next summer, he'll now are they good enough or do he need to buy new ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
