filbertway Posted 23 August 2022 Share Posted 23 August 2022 We should now say "That's it. Chelsea have had 2/3 weeks of messing us about and have failed to match our very clear valuation, or even come close. So we refuse to entertain any more offer this summer. Wes will remain a Leicester player and we will listen to offers next summer" Get a normal human that isn't some massive compulsive liar to actually sit down with Wes and explain the situation, not some bullsh*t middle-management bell*nd. Get Wes to like a picture of Filbert Fox on twitter and unfollow Chelsea so the social media stalkers are happy. We'll be golden. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 23 August 2022 Share Posted 23 August 2022 They made a rod for their own back when they spent £63m (I believe) on Cucurella. Lovely curly locks mind. £85-90m or go **** yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted 23 August 2022 Share Posted 23 August 2022 100 million now I reckon. We don't need to sell him. Hopefully we can hold on to him until next summer and PSG will come in for him instead of those willy pullers from London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st albans fox Posted 23 August 2022 Share Posted 23 August 2022 I assume that a bid of 70m would be paid over four instalments (say 16m up front and 3 annual payments of 18m ) If we assign the fee to the bank then we’d probably lose £5m so by offering the 60m up front, they have likely increased the value to us by 5m maybe they’re expecting us to negotiate split the difference to £70m plus £10m more reasonable add ons (70m not up front) l hope we tell them to do one £85m all up front now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really do hope club have got a replacement all but ready to sign as this could well go into next week, and Fofana could step up his frustration if he felt the last bid was acceptable. Almost certainly because Brighton told them a price they would accept where as we have only ever said not for sale so they are bidding blind. I'm sure there is a value the club would consider assuming other conditions such as finding a replacement were met but we aren't telling chealsea what that is because we don't want to encourage them to bid.

ElusiveEd Posted 23 August 2022 Share Posted 23 August 2022 Maybe Chelsea are gonna throw the towel in after the last offer was rejected which would have meant Wes plays on Saturday as a line would be drawn under the whole debacle. But by throwing in another sh1t offer, not much different from the last one we rejected, they continue to destabilise him, the club, the team and the the situation further so he's dropped again to face them? Having said that according to someone supposedly "In the know" on The CFC forum, they are already preparing a fourth bid so who the f**k knows what they're up to. Just either pay up or f**k off! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can almost guarantee that the next bid will still fall short of our valuation.

gurru991 Posted 23 August 2022 Share Posted 23 August 2022 I don't think Leicester will fold under pressure from Chelsea. His value is only going up. My concern is that we invest well. By that I mean don't listen to Rodgers !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
