I'm including Mike Penders who is yet to sign officially, but is also expected to go back to Genk on loan for the season.
It will be 59 when they also bring in Samu Omorodion from Atleti for £34m soon.

[Football] Chelsea moaning about PSR

I'd sort of understand it if they were able to sell players in a similarly flippant way. Take Datro Fofana (signed for £8m), he doesn't quite fit into their plans so they sell him off after one season for £15m and a healthy profit. It's a crap footballing strategy but quite a good business strategy.
They haven't been doing that though, and are finding themselves stuck with players that no one wants to buy. At the most extreme end you've got Kepa and Lukaku, Mudryk and Sterling as well potentially, who will never claw the money they spent on them back. And they seem intent on replacing them before they've gone. Then at the other end you have players like Fofana and Ugochukwu who at best will find a loan away from the club. It's utterly bizarre stuff.

If they want to spend this money and have a bloated squad then fine, do what you want, but don’t moan about financial fair play rules & being FORCED to sell Gallagher.
... is like a fat kid moaning about lettuce.

I don't understand why players keep signing for them. Especially young players - you must absolutely know that you've got little to no chance of getting into the first team unless you're a world-class exception. So, OK, you go and get paid very well - but really? That's it? You don't care about your actual career progression, about playing, about getting noticed by your country? Or about having to complete with, say, seven other goalkeepers? What possible motive is there for joining them?

Listen to me!!!
If Chelsea were liquidated it would be a great day.

Even better would be if they were liquidised.
Maresca was bloody annoying the other day, complaining about having to sell Gallagher….but I wonder how he will manage this huge squad? It’s a little different to the Leicester job! But then he will have known what he was letting himself in for when he joined.

They are genuinely the only club in the country that I would celebrate going bust partly BECAUSE I have close family members that support them.

All you read from Chelsea fans is 'We just need to bring in another........'
It's just sick
It's just sick
As per other replies, it's just about money. Don't care if they play.

Pedro Neto managed on average 15 starts a season at Wolves will suit him down to the ground picking up huge wages whilst on the sick bed for half a season.
A DULLARD was commissioned to write a summary of the finances of six clubs by a well known broadcaster before the June 30 financial year deadline in relation to PSR.
The six Clubs were Newcastle, Villa, Forest, Everton, Leicester and…Chelsea.
The article was uploaded onto the broadcaster’s website, Chelsea went ballistic, made threatening noises and article was removed.
