Hypothetically would you swap Branthwaite fir Richue?

I disagree… £90m now. Good rest of season and it’s £120m… the market has changed

No one is buying a 21 year old CB who has played 24 times in the Premier League for £90m. I would be happy if we put that price on his head because it would mean we weren’t willing to sell

I refer you to Marc Cucurella, at the time a 24 year old Spanish right back with 35 PL games who was bought for £62 million, 18 months ago.

Add a bit more youth, English tax, and a more valuable position (CB) then yes I firmly think that the asking price if he was to go in January should be £90m.
If he plays another 20 games as well as he has started, then the asking price goes comfortably over £100m.

Chelsea changed it all...

You've been on this forum for 15 years and you think this is the worst thread ever.

Chelsea overpaying for players doesn't mean everyone else follows suit.

By all means ask for a potential £120M but that doesn't mean it happens. Personally I'd just say not for sale unless the player starts angling for a move.

Thought he was a LB. Had 3 full seasons in top flight of Spain and England and the price was £55m

@chrismpw would you swap a fit blonde with huge hooters

for nora batty?

To be fair, he might be the one person who'd go for that.

To be fair, there has been some competition.
