✍️ OFFICIAL Granit Xhaka (Out)

[CaseUteinberger]

Chelsea spent 60m on Drinkwater and Bakayoko, let's see how much they recoup of that.

Doubt they will get their fee back on Kepa either. That was £72m well invested…

 

[Sammy1887]

About time the club shows some balls to those stingy Italians. No way we should sell Xhaka at 13 mill.

 

[14Henry]

It won't be 13m, it'll be a bit higher.

I mean we are objectively bad at selling (and buying, just bad at everything tbh) but I also think we're a bit blinkered, other clubs have made good sales but so have we, Ox and Iwobi were fantastic sales. Martinez was a good sale considering his value was about 2m only a few months previously, Willock could be a great sale after his loan. Also other clubs don't get it right all the time. Chelsea spent 60m on Drinkwater and Bakayoko, let's see how much they recoup of that.

We do need to do better but we slightly overplay how bad we are sometimes.

Chelsea got 100+m for a 28 year old who had one year left on his contract who openly said the only club I want to go to is Real Madrid.

Plus they have a man bank rolling their club. They can afford **** ups. We can't.

They have young players like Tomori who is going for around 25m and Abraham with whom they will get 30m+.

Liverpool stuck with Mingolet. They got 10m for him.

Players like Sahko were not overly desirable or in demand. 20m.

Danny Ings hardly played for them. Think they got 20m.

They got 20+m for Brewster.

Liverpool find one club who wants there players and they seem to say its this price take it or leave it.

I think they even got 15m for a 30 year old Lovren.

I don't remember hearing them being low balled so much. Well apart from the time we offered that ridiculous fee for Suarez.

United made a statement with Sancho last season as dortmund and the world thought they would give in. They didn't. This season they will probably get Sancho for 40m less than Dortmund were asking. That's a good result if you ask me.

Where were Liverpool when they sold those players? At or near the top, right? We are 8th.

That 28 year old was their best player for a couple of seasons and won them the league and Europa league. Compare that to our 28 year old who helped carry us from 4th to 8th. That's why his price will be low. We're also desperate to let him go and they know that. We'll get 15 mil and move on.

You still don't need to pay £100m.

70m would have done it. What were Chelsea going to do say no and keep an unhappy player?

If you were to buy a bog standard midfielder from Burnley like Ashley Westwood it would cost you 10m. 13m is nothing.

 

[Iceman10]

A year ago I would have happily taken 15m GBP, so it is not far off, but add-ons should be on top of that. Can't blame our club for holding firm. Just a process, hopefully....

 

[Jae]

I'd pay 13m for Roma to take him to be honest

 

[gunner4lyfe]

Take 15 plus addons based on the number of games he'll play and if Mou wins a cup. Chances are he wont get injured and every one else around him will. I'd put a sell on clause too because Mou will realize he's rubbish and get rid of him.

 

[MikeVinna]

We should be getting a lot more than 13m that’s for sure. Curious where the fee will end up.

 

[DUFFMAN]

He is ****e tonight.

Well always ****e but particularly tonight.

Roma could pull the plug.

Man is trying his best to give Italy a goal. Lol. Maybe if he sends them through Roma will pay up.

 

[RunTheTrap]

For the people saying we should ask more than £15 million, your head needs a wobble. This guys SUCKS. He’s getting bosses by the Italian team and you think Roma would buy him for anything more?

 

[Red London]

People saying Xhaka is worth less than £15m have an agenda in my opinion.

Really shows just how **** our midfield has been for years.

How did it get so bad.

 

[RunTheTrap]

Take the £13 million now!!!!!

 

[Sanchez11]

Couldnt careless about the fee not my money, adios!!

 

[Tourbillion]

Awful.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

Heard our new boy Locatelli is dumping on him tonight. Good riddance.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

I hate Xhaka. I ****ing hate him. But if we are getting 13 M for him it means Edu is getting something under the table for accepting that offer.
