2022/23 Anthony Gordon

[PhilRegan]

Of course they don’t shell it out straight away but they will still have to pay it to Leipzig over the course of the contract or when the contract was terminated mate. It doesn’t just disappear

Yes but they have just recouped a lot so the books remain much healthier , minus his wage also.

Richarlison is hard to replace and the club have failed so far, absolutely.

But Richarlison was sold to appease P&L. That £60m hasn't been available to spend.

I don't think Gordon's output is particularly hard to replace.

And if we do sell him, we'll have £50m to spend + the room it creates for us to be able to pay more in downpayments, which has been the issue all summer.

Unless ofc we've already been spending this money mate.

That Diaz goal: Sky going mad on it. But those Palace players had half a dozen chances to get a challenge in on him but backed off.

AG will never do that in his career. Diaz is in a different league.

 

[ProZ]

Look at what Diaz is doing over the park.

AG will never be that. Would take 40m all day long.

We are at 45 lad

I'd have taken it yesterday.

I have only seen the boy Onana for 5 minutes but this is making the fee we paid look a snip

Got a horrible image of this happening when we realise how ludicrous £45m would be to turn down.

if we sell do you have faith we will replace/add?

we still haven’t had a richy replacement

No but I also know it's an insane figure to say no to.

All Dom and Tom’s fault for spending all summer telling him to fly free, not be afraid to express himself, and be who whoever he wants to be. Literally immediately dyes his hair, gets some whitening toothpaste, borrows Toms skate-wear and cap from 2015, sets fire to his £100k contract offer and starts flirting with Tuchel whilst celebrating an offside goal. All in a fortnight.

Good luck to him really. We’ve seen the “player asked to leave” media drip feeding countless times, I’m not sure this is it. Club shut this down weeks ago. He could have done the same. But if he is that confident of ousting James as a marauding RWB fair play and good luck to him.

I still fear he will be a guaranteed loan to whoever gets promoted next year.

no…. so why sell?

 

[Nymzee]

no…. so why sell?

Because it's an insane amount of money. Not sure how many times I need to type that out.

I’m so confused. A couple of days ago you were adamant that nobody was suggesting Gordon was one of the best young players in Europe, then it was pointed out that actually you had said exactly that, and you backtracked and said you didn’t mean it. Now you’re saying he’s world class?!

What I'm saying is, Chelsea are paying a price for a player they feel has elite/world class potential.
