Leveller Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 11 minutes ago, ScottishRed said: I think it might be a bit premature to suggest that Da Silva will be here next season. Yes a fee has been agreed but that doesn’t take into account what the lad himself may want to do. But being first choice in a team 6th in the Championship is a pretty good result for him. I should think he’d consider moving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 It will affect their FFP position- they have to calculate this. As a PL side you can lose £105m over 3 years though so they should be fine for the duration. Though last season even with CL football they still would have lost £43m if not for profit on transfers...

You’d think he’d want to come here unless gets interest from Prem. Kalas is 26 in May, he’s never getting a chance at Chelsea imho. Just depends what he wants to do with his career. Palmer will never make it at Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted they go for minutes and Jay is getting them but with his age and ability I could see top division sides across Europe looking at him. He’d be a hit in La Liga I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gakoe Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 12 hours ago, Mr Popodopolous said: It leaves them with a slight dilemma for sure though because last season, although Chelsea posted record profits... The profit they posted was a brilliant £70.7m before tax (post tax that was £65.3m). However this was with CL revenue and more importantly gain on player sales of £113m. Not sure how much CL revenue worth vs Europa League- surely a reasonable amount though. Seems it is a key part of their business model- but will they be able to keep selling and loaning given they cannot replace until Summer 2019?? Throw in no CL revenue this year and though Abramovich would cover losses, they have a sudden financial hole to fill. Suppose sacking Conte you can knock £9m off costs but it shows how reliant they are on player sales/loan fees etc. It could make players more obtainable for us or less- because they may well be looking for higher and higher fees for Kalas etc this summer or it could force a bit of a firesale maybe. Hard to judge. The other possibility is that they suddenly start using youth as a means to build a side rather than make money. I want their accountant!

Lrrr Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/47459808 Appeal confirmed, hopefully heard before the summer so if they are guilty they don't get this summer to buy players. The Traore one is fairly damning though given apparently there was video evidence of him playing academy football before being registered officially.

I even knew it was JD but for some reason on that day I typed JDS. Weird. Though every fibre of my being wants to say it Da Silva.

Bristol Rob Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 I'll be surprised if they go mental. Won't be surprised if a few senior players move out and are replaced with (more expensive) but younger versions, but from what I have read, fans seem more than happy watching their academy kids coming in and doing a job. Every side seems to be so far behind Liverpool at the moment, 100mil dropped in Jan is unlikely to make any sort of impact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lrrr Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 Depends if they're playing the system Frank wants to play or just the one that best fits with the players he has, I expect they'll try for a couple but they've been linked with Chillwell for example, would he leave Leicester currently being above Chelsea? And even if Leicester would be open to the idea January when they're top 4 I expect they'd want at least what they got for Maguire, they had a ready replacement for HM, do they for Chillwell?
