Md9 Posted 31 July 2022 Share Posted 31 July 2022 You would think it would have to still be decent money and probably colwil that’s even if he wants to come here . Not going to be able to get a decent replacement for cheap either with it being close to the start of the season and teams will know we have money to spend if he goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanSP Posted 31 July 2022 Share Posted 31 July 2022 If anything it should be £80m MINIMUM + the players. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martyn Posted 31 July 2022 Share Posted 31 July 2022 Maybe an unpopular view but I wouldn't really want Gallagher as part of any potential deal. Chelsea likely to value him £30m+ and I'd rather get a mega chunk of cash. Colwill and Hudson Odoi (perhaps on a season loan) plus a massive chunk of cash would be ok if Fofana were sadly to leave. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Posted 31 July 2022 Share Posted 31 July 2022 £50m + Gallagher & Colwill will do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, quite fancy Havertz and Jorginho if they want to bring the price down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deal all sorted next summer Agree. We’d be absolutely crazy to sell him this close to the season starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimJams Posted 31 July 2022 Share Posted 31 July 2022 As long as the players involved in any player plus cash deal are all severely undervalued, this could work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingkisnorbo Posted 31 July 2022 Share Posted 31 July 2022 Gallagher is one of the most exciting players I’ve seen for years. Would move heaven and earth to make him part of any potential deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silebyfox_89 Posted 31 July 2022 Share Posted 31 July 2022 Ziyech is the only one that improves our side immediately, Colwill may take time and RLC/ Hudson Odoi would just swallow wages no point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue and white Posted 31 July 2022 Share Posted 31 July 2022 The problem with accepting players plus cash is we're getting further and further away from the recruitment process which got us to where we are. Colwill is worth the gamble but that's as far as I'd go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a busy body and keeps things going. He also is very good at the pressing game. I think he could sit in as part of the of a three man midfield and be a real asset.

moore_94 Posted 31 July 2022 Share Posted 31 July 2022 Happens every year when one of our big players gets linked away that the media report the other club could subsidise the deal with players All the times it gets suggested when does it ever actually happen? Swap deals are very rare 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambert09 Posted 31 July 2022 Share Posted 31 July 2022 chelsea have 3/4 players that would improve us but one thing that this doesn’t fix is the problem… Wages!!!! We need a better wage to turnover ratio… how is getting 2/3 players on huge wages already going to help this? Are chelsea allowed to pay some of their wages? on the books at least? or is the new ffp smart enough to see through that? On paper fofana, some dosh and 2 of colwill, gallagher, cho and ziyech is a great bit of business by us as all of them are great players. Ziyech and colwill would be an absolute dream!!!

Colwill, Gallagher, CHO are worthwhile options but it'd have to be all 3 or a staggering amount. We're useless without him ....we should take all three plus £70m...!!! They can spin it any way they like but he offers them an opportunity for a huge resale as well as the possibility of building an exciting backline. We should not be afraid to take this opportunity as we will not get the chance again. There was a comment by Radio Leicester that a world-renowned defender watches Leicester solely because he wants to see Fofana play, he believes he is that good, we would be crazy to value him at anything less.
