Marc Cucurella

[Bluemoon has risen]

We were right to walk away from this and I'm glad we low balled them in the 1st place. Chelsea have gone straight in at £50m and Brighton now want more. Absolute cheek and if Chelsea fall for it, more fool them.

 

[CityBluez]

So you think Chelsea would waste time bidding for a player that does not want to join them?

Kounde!?

 

[CityBluez]

Chelsea buying the league. Wtf. They want fdj also

And people on here thought Chelsea's days of big spending and success were over when Abramovich left.

 

[Centurions]

Fairlplay to Brighton to sticking with what they think he is worth

Fairlplay to us for sticking to our valuation

So Chelsea have already offered more than £50m but Brighton want more PLUS a £20m rated 19 year old CB?

Just WTF planet is Bloom on if that little lot is true???

 

[decmancity]

So Brighton still haven't got a replacement.

Probably partly a reason we pulled out. Pep would have wanted him in ASAP and if Brighton think they can hold teams hostage and make them wait for weeks then that's not gonna happen with us.

I like Cucurella, but he is not worth + £50m.

 

[Great Kompany]

So all in all

Chelsea are getting two great players. Now they have a good team.

City did okay by sticking to their valuation. They did stupid in going after him as they would have known our valuation and their demand.

Brighton did fine too. They want a player. People are willing to spend stupid money on him so why not. Give him to the highest bidder.

Won’t blame Cucu to going to Chelsea either. Same money as City. London is a good City. Also City did not raise their offer despite him giving a transfer request.

So only one Team will come out weaker from this saga would be City, if we don’t buy a LB before the window closes.

Brighton through naylor have always said they want more than they got for white. I suspect they will do the deal around £55m. The cb from Chelsea is a separate transaction.

Bloom is playing a blinder

 

[come-on-barney]

Brighton not being as smart as they think. Other clubs will be looking at the fee they received and the price for their player just went up. Players looking to use Brighton as a stepping stone will all want release clauses from now on. All very odd.
