He leads by example, Pep has said it multiple times. He's not as vocal as some but it doesn't make him any less of a leader. He almost single handedly has changed the style of football and the way we think of football at the club and throughout the Premier League, if that's not the epitome of a leader, then I'm confused as fuck.Nah
He was popular for sure, but far from a leader on the pitch
I’m just going of what I’m reading, I have no inside info. Sorry if it seemed that’s what I was implyingShould we be worried?
I mustn’t be a City fan then hahaha like I said, it’s not that deep.It’s weird. I don’t know any City fan who refers to us as Man City, just saying
No way chelsea pay that money on top of what they have already shelled out!
The idea that a captain should be the one who shouts and screams is all well and good if you play on Hough End on a Saturday morning.He leads by example, Pep has said it multiple times.

It's like some people believe that you can only lead by screaming and shouting at everyone, which is simply not the case.

There's a bit more to it when you are a Premier league player. I've read a few times on here that Silva wasn't a good captain and I've yet to see a good reason put forward as to why that's the case.
I agree, like I said, being a captain these days isn't about being the most vocal like some seem to think.People who scream and shout are generally bullies. Thats not leadership.

There is a big difference between a leader and a good example. If you cannot see that, I can understand your cinfusionHe leads by example, Pep has said it multiple times.

Why ?
They have the budget of 2 years ( Last summer since they were baned + This summer )
+ Hazard money ( +100m )
I think that’s what is delaying this, Otamendi leaving.0I see we are linked with Gabriel Magalhaes this morning, the supposed Koulibaly replacement at Napoli. Id love it if we signed him and left ADL high and dry but Koulibaly is the man for us it seems and we likely want to shift at least Otamendi before we add KK to the wages. Pre season hasn't started yet so a few weeks yet before it matters.
Yes he did in reply to me posting similar, said they needed to balance or only make a small loss to meet the rolling 3 year loss.I thought - but I may be wrong that @Prestwich_Blue had indicated that Chelsea had a big loss two years ago so they are struggling with the 3 year rolling average for FFP so making a profit and certainly not another loss was important to them. I suspect Chelsea will need to sell a few to balance the books - maybe Kante will go to PSG for a ridiculous fee, i wonder whether they can afford Chilwell on top of Werner and Harvitz, let alone contemplate KK.
