Specifically,
Luiz - 50m
Mata - 37m
Lukaku - 30m.

All fringe players at the time, 2 years ago. We sell ours for 10-15m in today's market.

Again, I'm not moaning about our sales as much as arguing why I disagree with the statement/implication that main men at top clubs have the same ability to negotiate good fees for their clubs.
 
Pogba- given away and bought back for £90m.

Come on, a big club like City using the transfer mkt to accelerate development is going to pick up players which it then needs to sell and will incur a loss.
 
Precisely why I mentioned Chelsea and them being able to get ridiculous sums for their players who weren't world beaters, which you ignored to respond to.

Which players have Chelsea sold for ridiculous amounts?

Luiz fair enough, Mata was about right and Lukaku is now worth double that , on the other hand they did sell Oscar and Mikel on the China gravytrain that seems to have been halted now we are selling.
 
Luiz £50m
Oscar £60m
Mata £37m

Luiz wasn't sold for £50m - that was an FFP dodge tied up with the unholly alliance between Russia and Qatar re World Cup bids. It was a loan simply until the dust settled when Luiz was returned to Chelsea. PSG knew theyd fail FFP so they had nothing to lose and everything to gain if they got Luiz effecively on loan for a few years.
 
Mentioned some examples on the previous page

So you did but i still dont get the point you're trying to make here?

We have spent heavily and not really sold our best players but that has worked for us as seen by 2 league titles, 2 league cups and FA cup and consistently qualifying for the CL whilst off the pitch our business model has seen us become bigger than Chelsea.

What is it you want?
