Cole Palmer and Chelsea players for sale?

[Marvin.]

Would you take him back?

I am not sure I would, but if CFC are not in the CL next season, and they intend to buy experienced players, then they will be selling the likes of Cole Palmer and Estevao, or they will have to find some other accounting trick with which to circumvent financial rules.

They need to find players who will not just generate big fees but who will generate profits.

I don't think Palmer has been fit this season, hence his dip in form. I wonder about his mentality though. Is he an elite player? He has elite technique but I have always wondered about his mentality. He cultivates the cool guy image.

I am curious as to what is going to work out at Chelsea next season if they don't get CL football. I hope they do. If they do, then it will probably be at the expense of Liverpool.

Chelsea can't go on as they are if they miss out on CL football, so my assumption is that they will have to sell the crown jewels. Speculative I know.

Not for me.

 

[citytill1die84]

No. Slapped arse lazy ****.

 

[Ivan Lentil]

It’s not exactly the most scientific way of rating a player but I’ve always been suspicious of his goal celebration routine

 

[bluwes]

He’s a rag and desperately wants to play for them. So no

 

[BringBackSwales]

Chelsea don’t need to sell, they are american owned not Arab

 

[Betterdeedthan red]

Not a chance

 

[WestGorton]

No

 

[yankblue]

Guess I'm going against the grain but I'd take him back in a heartbeat, don't think it's realistic though

 

[TinFoilHat]

Oh great another Cole Palmer thread. This place really has a shortage of them....

 

[Blue Hefner]

Chelsea will need to sell because they are seriously in the shit financially but the players they would get any decent return on are the ones they need to keep to get back in the CL

They would want 100mil for Palmer and there simply isn’t anyone who will pay that, never mind us

I note a question mark - and no links to Chelsea offloading.
Doesn't this belong in the Chelsea thread perhaps??? Or even in the Cole Palmer thread that I think must still be hanging round like a bad smell????

 

[Lost in space]

Nope, show pony who goes missing when needed. He will fit right in at the swamp

 

[ninjamonkey]

One of the very last players they would sell regardless of how much they need to bring in to balance the books, he's their star player. Anybody saying no to having him back is doing so without a clear head. He's an academy graduate, he'd basically be an extra body in the squad and would play plenty, of course you'd have him back.

 

[Lowtower]

Rag player

 

[richards30]

No thanks! He had a purple patch and now has faded to average, not good enough to get in our team currently

 

[Cityfan]

I'd certainly consider Estevao

Linked with Utd now https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/czx95dqpjg2o

 

[Jwoody19]

No thanks, let the rag go back to the swamp.

I've always thought Gusto is a decent all round full back without knowing his game in detail. Our wingers don't seem to take that many liberties with him.
