It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

Would like Raz to stay but if Chelsea offer of £35m includes £15m reasonably attainable add ons then for me its a reasonable price as we know how our transfers are reported when we are selling a player. Hes the only attacking player with genuine pace we have at the club but 90% off the time we play in the oppositions half

My point is we have more previous for selling low than not, that's a fact not a dig.

So does possibly selling Sterling, with a year left, potentially down the pecking order, for less than his true value would be surprise me? No. If he wants out the club facilitate that at their behest not the bottom lines.

Hardly a dig, again.

You can't really argue that other than trying to prove you're a bigger blue or something by nitpicking.

Who have we sold low?...I'm just asking...
 
I actually think the 35m will be the closer fee, should he be sold. He’s on way higher wages than Jesus.

We ain’t getting Leao out of Milan. They’re on the cusp of an amazing buy-out and about to build on a position of strength. Milan don’t seem like the previous load of crap for the past decade but a seemingly somewhat seriously well run club, about to become very rich. Leao has shown absolutely zero indication to leave.

Only hope of a replacement would be Gnabry, and that seems unlikely.

Nkunku would work if we took the Sterling and Gabby money and used it...
 
so what are the options if Raz leaves?

Leao - not cheap and can't really play on the right
Gnabry - interesting option but is he good enough?
Diaby - not sure if good enough
Antony - maybe united bound?
Saka - downgrade
Raphinha
Nkunku - can he really play on the wing?

I’d love to se what pep could do with Anthony to be honest as he’s a hell of a talent!

The most obvious one I can think of is:

Who the fuck in their right mind would want to play for a club who benches their players for a season simply to "send a message"?

Anyone who doesn't plan on leaving us high and dry when the opportunity presents itself, that's who the fuck...And if that's the mentality of the player in question you can have him, not for me...
 
I’ve said if we got decent offer for Sterling we should sell, last year of his contract and isn’t signing a new one.
£35m is a piss take.
£50m minimum.
For £35m we should keep him, then Chelsea can risk him going elsewhere on even bigger wages.
Pay up or fuck off.

If both Sterling and Jesus leave we'll have replaced our two biggest wasters of chances with two absolute killers in front of goal. Of course theres much more to both Jesus and Sterling than the chances they've missed and they've both been great servants to the club, but part of me would be happy to not have to worry about a Lyon miss happening again.

Agreed. These two players have other qualities but no denying the fact that the are our worst finishers.
 
I wonder if Sterling going is what TH was referring to yesterday with ‘strike me down’? Interesting to see if we bring a replacement in given both Jesus and Sterling are (likely) going.

Leao please…

You're quite obviously missing the bigger picture.

Thankfully, the club don't.

I understand the bigger picture in that we are a club who don't stand in the way of players wanting to leave in light of a fair proposal...we are also a club who treat their players amazingly with every amenity possible...not to mention what we offer in terms of success on the pitch...if Sterling is unhappy with the proposed wages or his playing time he can leave now allowing us to get some form of compensation while getting the playing time and money he wants straight away...why stay another year?...to leave on a free and pocket the money his new club saves in transfer fees?...to send us a fuck you very much message?...what is his point exactly?...that he holds all the cards?...

People are talking about leao, but leao is a left winger. Though under pep, he can convert a lw to rw but still it's tough.

Gbabry, maybe not good enough
Antony. United bound
Saka, not selling
Nkunku. Striker
