Enzo being with over hundred million means he should be play well regardless of the players or manager around him. He doesn’t deserve to get excuses as you’ve listed.

You are right; more in terms of wages—less so transfer fee imo. Fees between clubs have little to do with the player.

The point was made in the context of the KDH discussion; how they operate under very different circumstances — nothing else.

He’s been subpar for us; I’m just not sure it’s that easy to upgrade on him. We will find out soon enough from the chatter.

Agreed personal terms per Argentine outlets.

Who with and please let the football Gods allow Enzo's talents to grace another club. I'm going to church to pray for his safe departure and arrival at any club but us.

He's agreed personal terms with half of Europe. They need to actually pay us, though.

5 of the last 9 instagram posts from the Chelsea FC page are for Enzo.

So sad.

120 mil and you can have it .. a luxury player who is good in a couple of positions but not a world beater in any.

I have to be honest I am not watching a lot of the WC but reading a couple of reports following Argentinas latest game the press view is that he is far too good for Chelsea and is a star.

I don’t think his club performances are as bad as some on here suggest but I certainly don’t see a world star in him.

His fee would have been one of the last both from a PL and UEFAs perspective that allowed amortisation over 5 years so there would still be at around 2/3 of his fee on the books.

So we need to get around £70-75 million to wave him good bye.Will we recoup the £100+ million we paid ? What is becoming the norm is that very mediocre players are now being talked about as being in the £100m range so as I say I don’t see him as world class but if my assessment is wrong and the pundits are right than it’s quite possible that there will be an actual and not just accounting profit.

His book value seems to be around 70m.

If he is such a star and to good for Chelsea then he can jog on, he’d have to jog cos he ain’t got a sprint in him.

SHHHH

Let the worlds media proclaim him a star, let them talk of him as being one of the top midfielders.

The more this happens the higher the chance he goes for 120m. There's a reason we spent that much on him, the same hype happened after the last world cup.

Waking up was beautiful this morning, sun was out, fresh after the storms overnight, then my day was ruined remembering we still haven't sold Enzo... going to be a long summer

The same here.

When he came he looked the part in quite a few games .. he bossed Liverpool in his second or third year.. I think Maresca ruined him and coached everything great out of him.. he ain’t a 8.. was a 6 in the pirlo mould to be honest .. but he never worked on that position and has become weaker and weaker in his positioning to command a center mid position for me.. so yeah I hope he has a great World Cup and we maximise the profit and get to see a better player there.

Cannot go sooner enough for me.

Obviously believes he's destined for greater things... but you could probably say that for most of the team given the mess we're in.
