Marc Cucurella

[I'm With Stupid]

Looking at his stats it was not because of injury, and if so must be form

That's a worry then. I know he's only 21, but if he's in and out of the Wolves team, what makes people think he's good enough to start for City?

Shinny new toy syndrome

Calling out clappers when you’re flapping over your own imagination…

Whoosh, pal

 

[CityForever45]

Well, i like the player and i'm sad he didn't join, but WTF 62 millions LOL

 

[Chappie]

Why? He’s played an absolute blinder.

He may have played a blinder in selling terms, but sooner or later,he will be buying players for Brighton, who are going to cost him a lot more than this time last week.
Everyone now knows Brighton have a large pot of money and they will be more than happy to releive them of it.

lol, what nonsense, they will probably go off again into Europe and pick off a relatively unknown LB take and in 12 months another mug comes and try to buy him off them.

 

[Chappie]

frustrating because this is good signing for Chelsea going to make them even better defensively. I literally give two shits about the fee. Does he improve them? Yes he does. I don’t understand this thing about fees, surely if the player improves your team you pay it.

Clearly you don't understand economics and the implications of you're actions.
Fortunately the people who run the club,do.

Great signing for Chelsea, if you think he’s of the quality required then you pay the fee.

Potentially the best part of a decade of having the player, or even 5 years and some re-sale value.

City’s penny pinching over this one could be something we regret.

Walker £50m, Mendy £50m (ffs), Cancelo ~£50m. Stones £50m, Laporte £60m, Ake £40m, Dias £60m.

As an outsider it was pretty clear what the valuation would be.

 

[Cambo]

That is absolutely ridiculous money. Well done Brighton and oh my Chelsea. No way we should (would) have paid anything like that for that profile of a signing. Glad we walked away. Not only will Brighton be laughing all the way to the bank but Arsenal must think they won the lotto getting a versatile Zincenko for half that.

 

[Coatigan]

Kepa, Cucurella, Chilwell, Drinkwater, Ziyech, Lukaku, Werner

How much is this 7 a side team worth?

It cost Chelsea £400m.

They have just had a £1.5bn injection though. Those fees, Cucurella aside, have been wiped out.

They probably thought the same when they bought Havertz, Werner, Chilwell, Kovavic, Kepa, Pulisic & Morata…

All 25 or under and cost £40m+

How many of them have been a success?

 

[timperleyblueboy]

That's a bonkers fee! How it's got to £62m when the asking price was £50m ! I don't know..
Good player and he would of been great for us, but every player has to have a value otherwise we will get shafted by every club.

 

[Perseus]

Has the transfer gone through? No announcements and it seems wrong in too many ways to mention.

 

[Kippax77]

Is this kid the next Roberto Carlos or something?
Is he fuck.
He's just won fans player of the season at Brighton, yes Brighton.
City obviously didn't rate him as highly as Chelsea or most of our fans, 1220 pages on a nobody is staggering

Maybe the asking price wasn’t £50m and that’s why we pulled out.

 

[Newman Noggs]

I'll judge the value of this deal in a couple of years. I haven't forgotten the grief we got for the fee we paid for Walker which turned out to be an absolute bargain. We'll see.

 

[Gully]

Correct……asking price has never been revealed (at least not to us plebs), but was always ‘more than Ben White’. Bit surprised at Chelsea’s random splashing of vast sums….hopefully clueless owners who’ll mess everything up. Horrid club.

 

[CityBluez]

Chelsea have gone mad. Can't believe it

 

[Tugay One Cup]

I was fully on board when I thought the price was £50m.

Really good player but I'd struggle to understand us paying De Bruyne/ Dias/ Rodri/ Mahrez money for him. Glad we backed off if this fee is true.

Only problem is, I don't see us being seriously linked with anyone else now.
