What's new

Peter Crouch

In the Gossip columns today:

"Chelsea may face a transfer ban for breaking the rules on the signing of foreign players aged under 18. (Guardian)"

Two thoughts come to mind:

1. If a transfer ban results in us not signing Andy Carroll, Peter Crouch or even Niall bl**dy Quinn then please bring it on.

2. Irony of all ironies if Chelsea cop a ban for illegal approaches to under 18's (that didn't sound right (!) but you know what I mean) that never end up playing for the club anyway and are loaned out to every other bu88er around us.

 
It's the bullsh*t, you can't buy a player who will goes turned toward his 37...

 
Cant be right.  No f**king way the boards that inept.  Struggling to understand how we ever got to this policy.

P.S  -  Why is Matt Law sources so reliable and trusted?? 

 
Media wind up !

Anyone that believes this needs a brain transplant.

 
If we sign Peter Crouch I'll book everyone on this forum a holiday to Thailand. What a ridiculous rumour.

 
I'm really hoping we are linked to all these average strikers due to the fact we have a someone like Belotti lined up in the summer.  We just need a cheap English option for 6 months that won't add to our non home grown quoter.  

Though I think the papers are making the Crouch links up, they've been negative towards Chelsea all season.  If its true I'm defo getting Crouch on the back of my shirt.  What number do you think he will be? 

 
I'm hoping this and the Andy Carroll rumours were put out by Chelsea PR as a decoy, so when we eventually sign Dzeko we all go 'well, could've been worse!'.

I could see a bit of sense in Carrol, but Couch rumour is just beyond a joke. I know we aren't looking to spend 40M on a second striker, but for F* sake our standard wouldn't have dropped this much. He's not even getting a start for a relegation team, and hell they'd keep him at all cost just for that 10-15 minutes cameo for that goal.

Tomorrow we will be linked with Heskey, I mean he's big, strong, good header, a bit older than Crouch but we will look the other way.

A transfer ban would almost insure that Conte and Hazard would be gone by the end of the year...

Wrong.  We would not be selling Hazard if we couldn’t bring anyone in.  Atletico and Griezmann is a prime example.

I am confident hazard would ask for a move if we aren't reinforcing our squad. Hazard is in that prime contract place where he can begin to make demands about his future, otherwise we risk losing out to him on a free a year after our ban would be up.  

Also, Hazard is a better player than Griezmann so he holds more weight.  Real will be in rebuilding this summer...they will let a lot of older players go (maybe even Ronaldo).  They are sure to be on a spending spree and if they come to us with a 200m offer for Hazard, it will be hard to turn that down even if we are banned.  It may be a one time deal offer.

Hopefully it's nonsense and we don't have to worry about it
