The transfer fee itself was basically his release clause at €60mil. Sure with bonuses and agents fees it came to £85mil

Either way, they still paid less for him and he’s had a far greater impact than players we’ve paid 100+ mil for

I kinda blame the club in a way for shitty scouting and transfers. We keep buying young players with little work ethic for high price points. Young players really shouldn’t cost that much, that’s part of the appeal of them being young innit - but Chelsea doesn’t gaf. Dropping big money over players who haven’t proved themselves meanwhile City spends 60 mil on Haaland who’s not only impacted the team, but the league as a whole.

It also doesn’t help that Chelsea’s often been in the spirit of sacking managers but I would least like to see the players try harder in the match. Often times it seems like these players aren’t hungry at all and today’s match against Newcastle shows it

Lol “looked positive” be fr for the money we spent, we should be top of the table. Enzo didn’t score his first (and so far only) goal until this season and it was against a team in EFL 2!! At least Mudryk’s scored in the prem but it’s the same story.

For the hype and price that surrounded these players, they should be having a much greater impact

Looking for this comment like, where do I even begin. Every signing in the last three windows were flops and the windows before that as well.

I don’t remember the last time a new player lived up to expectations at Chelsea.
