Yeah I think Levi will be just fine whatever happens this summer. He will be a first team player for a premier league team with a nice pay rise, just maybe not in Europe next season.

[Albion] £30m offer for Levi Colwill rejected
- Thread starter doogie004
- Start date
Oh Christ on a bike. Don’t be a bore.
White was 23 when we sold him, Colwill has not long turned 20 and to me already looks like he is going to be a superior defender to White if he isn't already. Colwill is the real deal and will be England's first choice CB in a couple of years if not sooner, I would have no issue if we had to pay £50m for him now.

In that example you'd need to factor in the extra 2 million pounds of unnecessary VAT from each club.

POTS, but only in the Championship at Leeds.
Plus, it seems to be regularly mentioned that Colwill plays on the left which increases his value.
Thing is, if that is correct his resale value will be £100 million in just a couple of years. It's a big gamble though.
£100m is a way off I suspect…….current record for a LB/LCB is only what it is because of a clueless owner being rinsed by a genius
Man Utd paid £80 million for Harry Maguire 3 years ago when he was 26. If Colwill became England's first choice CB for the next few years then surely the fee would be higher than that?£100m is a way off I suspect…….current record for a LB/LCB is only what it is because of a clueless owner being rinsed by a genius
….and now they’re reportedly prepared to pay 10m to him to **** off………..
Anyway, dunno but even Boehly might wince at 100m for a defender

This. Still stuns me that after they completely screwed us over we didn't demand more than a loan for Colwill. Naive view yes, but where was your poker stance at the time TB? Wankers

Who cares what Poch wants do you think other clubs think oh this might upset RDZ if we try to sign one of their players who’s under contract

I think we would bite their hand off for that.
You want Chelsea to get a top GK - who's disillusioned at his own club - on the cheap from one of your rivals for a European slot? Geez! - how long have you been a secret shed-ender?

I don’t think Moises would go to a non Champions League team which rules out Chelsea for any negotiation. ( Arsenal are the most likely destination for Moises)
I can imagine that Sanchez would go to Chelsea who are looking to offload one of their keepers. Hardly seems to help the situation if Colwill is truly ‘not for sale’.

Leave the £30M bid on the table. Do nothing else - it's take ot or leave it, Chelsea. You want a bidding war? - we don't, so trot on. You want to sell Levi to leverage a cut price deal for one of our diamonds that under FFP rules you can't splash the cash for? Same again - do one!
I'd rather see Mac (or Moises) go almost anywhere rather than scummychav Chelsea!

FFS mate. I merely pointed out that he’d be better off here, playing with a team he knows and in a system he’s clearly enjoying, and you go all stupid over it. Nowhere was I suggesting we ‘free’ Levi, so stop putting words in other people’s mouths. Absolutely nothing ridiculous about what I said.
