Something not sitting right with me concerning recent events between the two clubs.
1 ) Chelsea pay way over the odds for Cucurella. City's valuation of £35 - £40m was about right. That is a £25m ish bonus for us.
2 ) Chelsea loan us their most talented young player.
3 ) Chelsea sell us Billy...

It got under my skin as well. I suddenly realised how sensitive he was and we were part of project Potter.
Bollocks to the other five. They have nailed their colours to his mast. Rise and fall with him, same as Oatway and Poyet. I wish him and the others a short and unhappy stay at the Bridge...
Six million people on Universal Credit is far more of a financial burden to this country than the cost of the monarchy. Too many playing the system to their benefit. Expert in their rights and unwilling to acknowledge any responsibility. Unlike the Royal Family, many fail to create a penny of...
GP looked a little out of his comfort zone post Salzburg interview. Guess he heard the boos and realised that this was a much harsher environment than BHA. A few boos at the Amex v Leeds is chicken feed compared to the flak he could get from the most spoilt and entitled set of fans in football...
Well, lets hope he rectifies that in January, unlike his predecessor, who felt he had enough options in that department. Leaving us with a 6 goal a season striker and others who are unproven. It was clear to almost everybody that we were short in this area and the sale of Maupay confirmed that...
Probably one of the best balanced athletes I have even seen. He moved around the court with a feline grace and his usually calm demeanour hid a champion mentality. I liked him when I first saw him and that never diminished, even when he met Murray in the Wimbledon final ( 2012 ? ) when my...
It was very muted at the end of the game last night and it certainly sounded like there were a few muffled boos. Surely not. The Messiah's first game and some weren't happy? He did look a bit ruffled at the end. Not the usual relaxed demeanour and calm interview. A bit distracted.
Anyway it was...
Well its no secret now that Potter's agent put his man forward to Boehly when Chelsea were enquiring about a player on the agent's books. That was some weeks ago. That infers that Potter and his agent were seriously looking for an upgrade from little old Brighton and were waiting for an...
So you trust politicians with the public purse do you?
FFS....do you people never learn. They are our elected representatives but they do not represent us or our national interest. They take us to war without reference. They sell off our gold reserve without reference. They abuse the education...
Potter is a political animal and just says what he thinks people want to hear.
Unless, of course, its a few frustrated fans booing another below par performance and then the gloves are off. The real Potter comes out then.
1) Potter is not savvy.
2) Did he take Swansea as far as he could? ( 10th place in the Championship in one season )
3) He is not the next great manager.
4) £50m is the chance worth taking.
