It’s negotiation and risk to Chelsea that for a bit more he doesn’t have more choices in 12 monthsThat makes no sense,when he will walk next year anyway.

Depends what part of the world he was posting from I'm clutching at straws are'nt I.Nope and in ten minutes it’s not afternoon so doesn’t count!
Better to get something than nothing and I have a feeling we have his replacement lined up should it go through. We can make up the low offer with selling Ake for an additional £5-10mill :). They are desperate for a prem proven defenderfar far too low
all you hear when we want to sign anybody is squad places , homegrown quota , champions league squad allownces
chelsea arsenal spurs sign who they want need no questions
35/40m or keeps our bench warm and walks on a free in 12 months?
Problem is we are not in a great negotiating position - Turn down £35m and pay £15m in wages etc and lose him for free next summer - not saying we should accept but can’t over play a poor hand.
Given the fact we have already taken in a lot of Sales, I would keep Raz for anything less than £50m including max 10m in addons, especially to a premier league team
I like how quickly we've gone from a minimum of 55m to 35m tops and we are still 'thankful' to get whatever.
It's my understanding that we were prepared to let him see out the remaining year on his contract.Problem is we are not in a great negotiating position - Turn down £35m and pay £15m in wages etc and lose him for free next summer - not saying we should accept but can’t over play a poor hand.
The player may have his head turned by another team in twelve months and Chelsea lose out on himit’s the nature of the situation we are in unfortunately- I don’t like it but no one’s going to pay top dollar for a guy they can get for free in 12 months and I’m surprised the player is welcoming the move - he’d get a shed load more cash next summer.
The deal has to suit us aswell though.it’s the nature of the situation we are in unfortunately- I don’t like it but no one’s going to pay top dollar for a guy they can get for free in 12 months and I’m surprised the player is welcoming the move - he’d get a shed load more cash next summer.
Did you not catch the breaking news that Middlesbrough were after Steffen? ;)So what was Dickov talking about with that tweet?
Course we are, the player ‘needs’ out if you listen to the reasoning, and Chelsea are trying to restructure their entire front line after wasting nigh on £300M, they’ve now got the opportunity to sign an England international in his prime for £50-60M which is a great deal for themProblem is we are not in a great negotiating position - Turn down £35m and pay £15m in wages etc and lose him for free next summer - not saying we should accept but can’t over play a poor hand.
