Deadline Day: January 2023

[Rasmi]

Chelsea basically said to everyone they signed last summer and the summer before that you’re all trash and need replacing. Even guys like Sterling must be thinking what the ****?

Absolute shambles, I don’t want anyone to buy any of their absolute crap

Poor Sterling on his 325k a week wage. I feel for him

Auba and Sterling didn’t even get 6 months

Good luck shifting half these guys with all those players they can’t even register.

Guys like Malang Sarr and Lukaku still on loan as well ffs.

 

[gunner4lyfe]

They were, they are a selling club. They just referred the release clause amount to Chelsea as the fee. Got one million euros on top of that.

Yes i know. But somebody wanted to blame Edu for giving up on Caicedo while praising Chelsea for not giving up on Enzo when the clear difference was that Benfica were willing to sell.

 

[Camron]

this is the guy who after coming in presented Tuchel the 4-4-3 formation he wants to see start so

Boehly actually stocking up to play 4-4-3. Someone check PL regulations.

Don't forget Hudson-Odoi at 120k/week and Bakayoko

Really hope they don't manage to sell any of their players.

The kicker article said the 12 player lineup was just one of many things Boehly stepped to Tuchel with that left him "uncomfortable".

A friend of mine has a business relationship with Tuchel, if I ever get to meet him I'll harass him to spill the beans bet there's a trove of embarrassing stories.

Aren’t they straight up cancelling the Bakayoko contract?

Another 100k/week they need to buy off

Tell me more.

When owner keeps doing things that managers not comfortable with i don't think it'll end well Todd and his Yes men of group specially this guy baghdadi who journalists pretending he some genius is basically Todd yes man he paying extremely load of money overpaying to get things done.

Because I'm totally sure no sane DOF in world who got experience to how approach the market and how build team will spend that amount of money and just keep adding players this is just wrong.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Thier fans think they gonna sell alot of players yeah we'll see about who the german italian or Spanish club willing to take 200k a week Pulisic or many others.

They can basically sell Broja (40k) and Gallagher (50k) to Premier League and top-5 teams in the European big leagues. Players like Ziyech (100k), Bakayoko (100k), Sarr (120k), Hudson-Odoi (120k), Lukaku (320k), Auba (160k), Pulisic (150k), Loftus-Cheek (120K), Chukwuemeka (120k), Azpi (180k) would have to take a massive wage cut to get out of the club unless a club like Bayern, Real, PSG, Barca comes along which is doubtful for those players for the most part.

It's actually insane if you combine the wages per position what they are paying their players. For instance at LB Cucurella and Chillwell earn a combined 365k/week, James and Azpilicueta at 430k, etc.

You know they renewed Borja contract lol thier wage bill is just so unhealthy i wonder how PL not punishing them. I cant believe they paying that much for Chukwuemeka and Loftus cheek wtf

The wages is what’s not getting talked about in the media. How much is their annual wage bill right now? It must be insane.

 

[Heskey]

Southampton adding Kamaldeen Sulemana and Paul Onuachu for a combined fee of around €42M is pretty shrewd I think.

Definitely worth a relatively cheap punt on Sulemana, and Onuachu deserved a big move. Goal every 74' this season (16goals in 19games) and 2.1m tall so will fit into a team with some wing play.

Add that to their other business with Bazunu, Lavia, Alcaraz, Mara and so on they're building a really interesting team.

I've no clue if Nathan Jones is a good coach or not but certainly an interesting squad.

Yeah. Well I'm quite sure Brighton would have sold him for Enzo money or more, if they got a proper replacement, which would have been tough of course.

It's also totally possible that Bloom got annoyed and wanted to make a statement that players can't force themselves out all the time, especially in January. Trossard already did it with 1,5 years in contract, so a player with 3,5 year contract doing similar, and getting his wish, is a very bad look.

 

[drippin]

Aren’t they straight up cancelling the Bakayoko contract?

Chelsea doing this stuff (and they will have to do it in the summer too), and Tottenham canceling Doherty's contract to join Atletico for free. And the Gil deal.

Remember when it was only Edu who has these problems? Surprise surprise, it's not only him.

No clue what the wages of the new guys are, but surely they won't be cheap. Their wage bill must be very bloated.
