Transfer Discussion Thread

You'll struggle to make any profit on Sterling, Lukaku and Cucarella imo. Best bet is flogging your kids (unfortunate side effect of current rules).

They'll be happy to just get the unamortised value left and to remove the wages from the books like we did with a fair few last summer. They'll also sell some academy footballers.

Wow, why?

 

[Bradesmaen]

Man United's new sporting director

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Wow, why?

Surprised you are asking this question given he was at Arsenal for 16 months before being moved on.

"He signed eight players, of which two were sold for small profits, resulting in a £103 million loss for the club. The largest loss was for Aubameyang, who followed him to Arsenal for £56 million and left for Barcelona for free."

Good news. But can’t we just have him back. Send them Nkunku

Surely you'd try and send Sterling instead..

 

[chef]

Yeah nah, there'll be better teams than us in for him(plus he wouldnt fit in our wage structure)

He'll end up at a top tier club like Pool, Real or City

Does Sterling want out or does the club actually want rid? He's only 29??

 

[moomba]

I think Sterling is going to be hard to offload. On good money, finally back in London. You'd have to get a £30m fee just to break even.

He can be frustrating but he hasn't been the worst Chelsea player either. There's a few I'd get rid of before him.

I couldn't quite get a full team out of 'players that have done alright after leaving Spurs'.

Trippier
Campbell
Walker
Berbatov
Gazza
Carrick
Lineker
Bale
Modric
Sheringham

Can't have Lineker. He barely did anything after Spurs.

Joe Hart has won a few leagues in Scotland after leaving

You mean 4 goals at Nagoya Grampus is bad?

Sheringham won stuff at United but wasn't that great.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Sheringham scored an injury time equaliser as they won a European Cup. Whatever else happened doesn't really matter

 

[Bojan KantKick]

Teddy won the FA cup for United that same season with a lovely goal.

Fair point about Lineker. I was thinking he went to Barca after he was at Spurs.

Moving to the Scottish sunday league is a step down but Joe Hart gets a place because we need a keeper.

Sheringham is in. In addition to 3 PL titles, an FA Cup and a Champions League he won both the player's and football writers player of the year for 2000–01.

Unamortised amount left this summer is £19.5m.

He'd be top of the list to move on for mine.

Bit of both.

What “wage structure”?

 

[jod23]

Why would Sterling want out? He surely knows his next move is to a smaller club and on less money. Surely he'd rather stay at Chelsea on big wages.

Its been brought in under our new Sporting Directors.

I guess he didnt sign up for a youf lead slow rebuild, he was signed under Tuchel before we had these SD in place.

TBH i think he'll go out on loan somewhere.

Do you think he will want to go for the Romelu Lukaku ride?
