Every player to Chelsea

Don't understand why anyone would think Aubameyang would do badly.

He scored 85 goals in 90 games for Tuchel in Germany

Despite wasting half a season after falling out with Arteta, only 7 players scored more goals than him during the 5 seasons he was in the league (although he played 40-50 games fewer than most of them), and he had the 3rd best minutes per goal, only behind Kane and Salah.

He's scored loads of goals for Barcelona and some really big ones as they climbed back into the CL spots.

And it's going to cost them €20m. Plus he's retired from international football, so he'll get loads of breaks.
Totally agree. I think he will do well with Chelsea, better than Sterling.

I don't his attitude or personality at all. He's a typical "Arsenal player" in that he's moody and plays his own game. However... whisper it quietly, but for the money they are paying I'd be tempted to have taken him on for a season. He is lethal and his record speaks for itself. We can't play Haaland every game and I think he's the type of poacher who'd have a field day with us.
 
Lukaku loan & paying half his wages
Rudiger, Christiansen, Barclay, Alonso, all £0 income

Werner they lost millions on him & the same looks like for Ziyec & Pulisic
Somthing tells me this new owner of Chelsea is a right under the table dodgy cnut!!!!!
 
Anyone out there who knows how Chelsea are allowed to spend North of £300m without selling 1 fucking player?

If that's City we would be getting Absalutely pulled from pillow to post

I know FFP is relaxed but someone show me how please
A new owner can have a three year accelerated investment period not covered by FFP, as long as the money doesn't come from debt leveraged against the club.

They changed this rule around 2-3 years ago, when both Milan & Inter were struggling to sell their clubs, as the new owners couldn't spend what was necessary to return both clubs to the top because of FFP restrictions.

The fact City told everyone we were having a 5 year accelerated investment period until 2014 & then we'd be good to go without Sheikh Mansour having to raid his piggy bank, isn't lost on me.

Chelsea are fine. We got a £50m fine, & a three year 21 man squad restriction, plus we had to include 4 club trained & 4 association trained players too. Just imagine what we could have achieved without FFP from 2013-2016? :-/
 
As Abramovich was running out the clock without spending a penny, they probably had some room on FFP figures. They knew they were losing Rudiger and the other CB ages ago, long before this takeover. This - afaik - means the knew owners write off both the book value/amortization and drop the existing wages from the balance sheet. Also consider that they'd have been looking at a balance sheet containing a sizable increase in salary for both. Rudiger will be paid very handsomely indeed by Real.

Money will have been put aside back then for initial payments, and the wages won't be much bigger. Big fees aren't a disaster going forward as they are written off bit by bit. If anything is said, it's likely to be noted that it's a one off season for them.

Short answer - Wages. That's how. In addition to Christensen and Rudiger, they have shipped Werner, Lukaku. Hudson Odoi, Havertz, Emerson. Abraham, Azpi, Malang Sarr. Bakyoko and Alonso, both set to leave today or tomorrow. Rahman strongly linked with a move.

Barclay and Drinkwater both reached end of contract. Niguez end of loan.

City got fees for young players this year - but Haaland's salary is a big expense. Chelsea have signed more new players, but none on that sort of wage. Meanwhile, they shipped a tonne of players who were first teamers, all of whom were getting the big money. Niguez, for example, '10m a year. They've amassed a large ongoing saving, and spent it on fewer and better players to complement the Mounts and James's - both of whom earn less than half what Niguez did, afaik they earn less than any of the others listed above.
 
I see they have given forfana a 7 Yr contract so probably sailing close to the cut off point for spending this summer unless they sell ?
