Usually embargoed for publication at a later point and usually for the written media. Hence, you’ll often get some different lines or reporting in Monday papers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think of him @Ric Flair. Apparently Liverpool are also scouting him. After Fofana I'd expect them to be pig-headed about selling to us again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bptiger Posted 6 August 2022 Share Posted 6 August 2022 Just thinking that if we sell WES for 75 million , when u take out the 30 odd million we paid for him , then I spent 20-30 million to replace him , what’s the point , yes we clear 10 odd million but we lose a GUN player . Just my thoughts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my thoughts You're aware we get the money back we paid for him yes? So we have £75mill to replace him not 40. You can't "take out" what we paid as if it's dead money.

Cadno'r Cymoedd Posted 6 August 2022 Share Posted 6 August 2022 A quick aside. Watching Saliba for Arsenal against Palace you can see why he was more highly rated than Fofana. There was a hugely mature steel in his defensive play. The guy didn't look like a vastly promising 21 year old, but the real deal already. Can we put a cheeky bid in or do a Youri swap?

Probably but there’s a chance he has a year like Youri just had or worse yet, he suffers a serious injury like he did last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did say Saliba is an exceptional young player… The French have a ridiculous amount of top CB’s now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st albans fox Posted 6 August 2022 Share Posted 6 August 2022 The wording of rodgers comments is revealing he speaks about ‘our valuation’. He says the club has no need to sell our greatest assets. If that’s the case then why is there a valuation?? Surely you would say ‘Chelsea have made a bid but the player is not for sale in this window - who knows about the future depending on circumstances’. its obvious that we have a valuation and if Chelsea meet it then the player will be sold. A week ago his comment was that ‘fofana is not for sale - end of’. I’m not convinced we’ll see him play tomorrow - based on the public presser I was because I felt rodgers had backed himself into a corner by not using the groin injury as a possible non selection get out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know much about him but now they've been relegated and the new season started, I'm not sure when that would tip over in to failing a work permit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s always a price. If Real Madrid came along with a £100m bid for Vardy tomorrow then we sell him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
