I know mate, I wasn't suggesting you had, only that if he surpasses even our wildest expectations of him, all we're losing out on in the long run is a bigger fee and I would rather take £50m now than gamble on him being valued (by anyone other than us) at the same or more in the future.
I genuinely don't believe he has proven anything of the sort. He won the Tallest Dwarf award last season for being half decent in an utterly rotten bunch but even then I don't think he produced anything consistently, which bears out in his stats. Of course, a better team around him MIGHT yield better results from him, but my feeling - and it is only that - is that the opposite will be true; being surrounded by better players will just see him shrink into the background.

I agree £50m won't get you the three players plus Gordon replacement we need, but it will get you 2 or 3 of those 4. Then we need to over hype Stanley Mills this year and hope someone spunks £50 mil on him next year.
Maybe line up Dobbin or Simms for the overhype train the year after that.

Reports are he's asked for a move. He's rinsed his hair with tippex as gingers aren't as valuable on transfer market - Billy says so. Flog him, get the dough and splash the cash on a few third rate journeymen sick of eating Chinese cobber.

Oh without doubt. Its this that I think will say, bollocks I'm off while I've got the chance.
I know no more than what I see blurted out on the usual sites. No smoke without fire springs to mind. Whatever happens his mind will be in no fit state for the weekend as if we didn't have enough to worry about.

I'd take the money. We don't want another Barkley situation where he stays, barely plays, then next season value plummets and we sell him for £15 mil in Jan or next summer. If he wants to go then get rid. Hopefully the likes of Simms and Dobbin will all increase in value by playing regularly and then we start getting decent money for our academy players. Much rather see the money go on another decent central mid and a forward.
Simon Buttle
Player Valuation: £50m
Either that or he will be next in line for an injury which then keeps him out for half a season and all the usual lot are going on about how we "should av kin sold him" when we had the chance.

Ask them for Broja loan with option to buy plus £50m.

Take the kin money ffs. £45m smackers.
I automatically do not believe any rumours of deals which include player swaps.
We want £50m cash. No other distractions Chelsea.
