June 15, 201610 yr Saw him a few times for Valencia and last night for Portugal. Very talented player. Tall, strong, great technique, top passer and is only 22. Read that ManU are after him, wish we were in the mix. Very much like the look of him.
June 15, 201610 yr He is a Mendes client so most likely UTD bound if they want him. Agree he is very talented but a bit inconsistent which is understandable for his age.
June 15, 201610 yr Sky sports just announced Chelsea have had a 32m pound bid rejected for him, looks like you were right about we should go for him
June 15, 201610 yr Wouldn't be surprised about us making a bid, given what I just read. http://sportwitness.co.uk/chelsea-fabregas-real-madrid/
June 15, 201610 yr Author Who would you play him ahead of in the current squad? Don't know, haven't thought that far ahead, to be honest, just like the look of him. By the way, apparently Marina is either reading my mind or is making bids based on my posts in the Rumours section.
June 15, 201610 yr Wouldn't be surprised about us making a bid, given what I just read. http://sportwitness.co.uk/chelsea-fabregas-real-madrid/ Well this is complete fiction Don't know, haven't thought that far ahead, to be honest, just like the look of him. By the way, apparently Marina is either reading my mind or is making bids based on my posts in the Rumours section. What kind of player is Andre Gomes? I can't say i've seen much of him to say i like him or dislike him.
June 15, 201610 yr Hypothetically if we were playing 3-5-2 with Fabregas as the base, he will slot in nicely in midfield as one of the 2. His release clause is 40m, just stick the bid in instead of messing about.
June 15, 201610 yr Author And at 22 he' s still a few years away from his peak. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhEh3vTr3yY
June 15, 201610 yr Just seen he has a 40m release clause. Why are we always trying to penny pinch in these matters. We've got the money, if we want the player just cough up.
June 15, 201610 yr Just seen he has a 40m release clause. Why are we always trying to penny pinch in these matters. We've got the money, if we want the player just cough up.Sure its 40 mil, saw elsewhere it's 150 million euros.
June 15, 201610 yr Sure its 40 mil, saw elsewhere it's 150 million euros. I'm only going off what i've seen reporters saying on twitter, a lot of them are saying we bid £8m less than his buyout.
June 15, 201610 yr I'm only going off what i've seen reporters saying on twitter, a lot of them are saying we bid £8m less than his buyout.If true, it's utterly ridiculous from us. Edited June 15, 201610 yr by summer is coming
June 15, 201610 yr Author Kante also has much better options to go to I'm sure there are other top clubs interested in Gomes, he's been heavily linked with MU lately, and he's likely to join a bigger club quite soon. As for Kante, he's a very different type of a player, so he shouldn't be compared to Gomes. I actually wouldn't mind both of them at CFC, now that would have been a great deal.

June 15, 201610 yr £8m penny pinching lol. Remind me to never put any of you guys in control of my finances.
June 15, 201610 yr £8m penny pinching lol. Remind me to never put any of you guys in control of my finances. lol
June 15, 201610 yr £8m penny pinching lol. Remind me to never put any of you guys in control of my finances.Hahaha, I think they're talking in relative terms mate, although if you have 8mil feel free to share it with the board ;) haha!With the new TV deal, the Yokahoma deal and the new kit deal we have next year I think it is. You would think we have a bit of cash to spend. I read that it's not his release clause but it's 42mil they want, and we only bid 32mil, if we want him badly enough, we'll come up with the cash. I've not watched him a lot but I thought he was Portugals best player last night (not that this is saying much!) Edited June 15, 201610 yr by EdinburghBlue
June 16, 201610 yr They are asking for more cash because they have to fulfill a sell on clause to his former club. So they want us to make up for their poor business? No thanks.
