Marc Cucurella

[Withnail]

Can’t really have any complaints if Chelsea match Brighton’s valuation of Cucurella and we didn’t. It’d be absolute fucking madness to start this season with only two recognised senior full-backs though, so trust we have someone else lined up.

Albeit some on here think we will be ok going into a world cup season with Cancelo, Ake and JWE. We will buy a new lb imo, who I am not sure

We do appear to have a small but vocal contingent of entitled drama queens amongst our fanbase.

I’m sure every club is exactly the same, but ours do seem particularly brittle.

I blame the Community Shield!

If our Club is in exactly the same position come 2nd September, then I’d agree we have a problem which could potentially undermine our season.

Thankfully that day is weeks away yet.

Tempted to introduce a new forum rule where anyone who claims that our transfer policy is “embarrassing” or “disgraceful” gets an instant ban.

 

[Damien10]

Can I be cheeky and ask who your source is?

The same source who told me he was going to put in a transfer request.

Hi Damien hope all is well. I think it’s funny bc I think it’s utter horse shit. Should the clubs vision indeed be clearer tomorrow and it’s true I’ll swing back around to apologize.

I'd read some of his old posts regarding past transfer stories, he had info before info broke.
I wouldn't be to quick to dismiss the poster.
@Damien10 I'll back you.

 

[Delphinho]

Tomorrow the clubs stance should be much clearer. My view hasn’t changed, I still see him being here by the weekend.

Interesting

A bold, progressive innovation.

You’ll halve the posters on the Transfer forum in an instant though mate!

Please don't get peoples hopes up haha

Why do Chelsea need cucurella again.?

Their new owner trying to make a statement

There wouldn't be many posters left.

 

[Benarbia’s Backheel]

You believe the 'take it or leave it' stance comes purely from Pep and not within the club itself ¿?

Of course it doesn’t

People slandering Txiki or the board should be another of those rules

That’s probably veering a bit close to RAWK territory tbh! It’s fine to be critical of Begiristain or Soriano (or even Khaldoon or Mansour) as long as it’s considered or constructive. If you’re just spouting hysterical shite though, then I don’t have the time or patience for that any more I’m afraid.

 

[TheBlueCat]

IT WAS NOT £35m. Some ex footballer said the he thunks city might gget him for that price. Brighton said £50m you bid 30.

Are you still at it?

A lot of the Txiki slandering is just pure nonsense. We wouldn’t be where we are if we were run by morons

Agreed, but they’re not infallible or beyond reproach either.

I like ur optomism, are saying city will match Chelsea, if so then it becomes a bidding war. If you were not going any higher than £40m, your not going to go to £50+m, then risk a bidding war. Surley its to late now for city to come back

 

[stonerblue]

I'm just sick of us fucking about with the LB position...be it 40mil or 10mil get SOMEONE in in time for the start of the season ffs. How many years without a pure LB now?

Bang on

 

[SWP's back]

Good lord, I know he's a good player but is he really that good? Like so good that there are no other options out there to replace him? If that's the case then we are done! Totally abandoned and forsaken by the gods of football, throw 100m and Bernardo at Brighton and make this deal happen asap!

The hype is super strong with this one. Seriously, get a grip .

Then answer the question that I asked rather than say all that hyperbolic crap above. Who’s a better option?

You mean like the rags :-)

 

[Goatmeal]

It’s in the clubs hands.

Cuc to say he wants city/pep only?
