Sadiki to Chelsea (internet chat)


Mental. Glad you’re not running the show. Another season with us he’ll be worth double that.


Okay I’ll wait for your plan on running the club, is it buying low and selling at exorbitant rates that the fans are happy with. 😂 no losses and never accept anything less than the fans think the player is worth…. We’d never lose😁
 
The reactions on here are understandable none of us want Sadiki to go. Yes we’ll get a great fee but relaxing him will be tough and will cost a lot of money. And there’s also a bigger worry once one key player goes how many more will. I hope Xhaka when he came here got buy in from the club that we wouldn’t be selling Crown Jewels at the first opportunity without it being mind blowing money. I don’t think we will, Xhaka for one would be off if we sell off decent players he’s not going to spend the last couple of decent seasons of his career fighting relegation battles with us given how well this year has gone.
Concentrate on your own shitshow of a club man. Tony Gordon refusing to play today :lol::lol:
 
Look at forest or the mags, mags even more so. Went from cup winners, champions league. They fucked about all window trying to keep the rat then panic bought and now look miles away with every so called better player wanting out in the summer.

Yeah replacing players when you've had big fees in at this level won't be easy. The key is probably trying to have them in the door beforehand succession planning and having enough squad depth to counter it to a degree. Achievable, but no easy task and it's means like with the Brentford, Brighton, Bournemouth etc you have to be calm and patient and things can be up and down.
You need to believe more. We can do better with £70m for the squad as a whole than just Roefs. That’s the reality of the situation.

I believe they can find players, but it'll be much harder at this level. Our issues are probably that we are at a very early stage and the squad depth isn't there yet to counter for losing players like Roefs and Sadiki.

We could quite easily have ended up with Bulka or Petrovic in goal this season too. Selling for big money doesn't automatically mean you can strengthen the whole sqiad with ease.
