Chelsea and Brighton


Spiderman Flag Horsham 04 Mar 24 7.04am

Given the ridiculous inflated prices paid by Chelsea to Brighton and now this, isthere some dodgy underhand dealings going on? Or perhaps Boehly really is a basket case

Maybe Boehly and Bloom had a poker game and Boehly lost.

Hard to see how Chelsea can keep buying without getting FFP penalties especially when seven year amortisation is no longer allowed.

He's literally playing the game Football Manager but with an actual football club.

Chelsea are the dregs of all the football leagues. Like a Millwall with dirty unlaundered money.

I think Boehly really is a basket case. It feels like they assume they can pick up any player/manager, drop it into Chelsea and it will miraculously work.

e.g. Caicedo worked so well because of the balance of the midfield unit Brighton had. Stick him alongside Enzo and Gallagher and he no longer looks very special.

To be fair when I saw Chelsea were buying a Brighton midfielder for mega millions I had to look up who it was as I never saw a £100m player when they played us ,nowhere near it .
The fact of the matter is that Chelsea have bought poorly,overpaying for average players that they have put on long contracts to get past FFP .
They will try to offload some so Poch can buy in the summer but wont have any takers due to the wages they are on . The club is a mess , ruined by greed , LOL
