[Albion] Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall **Singed for Chelsea 02/07/2024**

We should take out a restraining order against Chelsea.

Players and their agents hold all the cards. They’ll say fck off then.

Fine next...

Hope you’re right. But I can just see us doing all the hard work in negotiating what fee would satisfy Leicester & what wages KDH would want, & then Spurs/Chelsea come in with a slightly better offer. He’s a good player, impossible others aren’t interested & keenly watching what we do.

Was so obvious this would happen.

 

[Flounce]

Will become the new Danny Drinkwater if he moves to Chelsea

If he has a wage packet more than twice the one on offer from the Albion and no guarantee of first team football, chances are he’ll take it

 

[um bongo molongo]

I'm not sure that's the case.

From what I'm told, he would have become an Albion player in January but our now ex-manager scuppered the deal.

WTAF.

 

[Sam Ovett]

Chelsea is everything wrong with modern football. You can hate Palace all you like but at least they’re a real football club.

Would love KDH at Brighton, but infinite money cheats Chelsea will just continue to offer infinitely more whenever we have a target.

On one hand it’s flattering they’re copying us at every stage, but it’s also more annoying than anything I’ve ever witnessed in football.

 

[um bongo molongo]

Are Chelsea obsessed with Albion and their targets?

It’s like f****** Baby Reindeer

Winstanley seemingly hasn’t got a clue what he’s doing without the data TB provided him with.
How much have the fuckers fallen under the Russian a Brighton target wouldn’t even flicker on Chelsea’s radar.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

I missed the sarcasm!

Money will talk. Players invariably opt to take double the pay packet, despite the risk of being a bench warmer.

Well, Popular legend has it that Liverpool actually offered Caicedo more money than Chelsea last summer and he was happy enough to go there. But something- hmmm, what COULD it have been?- persuaded his agent to convince Moisés that Stamford Bridge was the better deal for him, despite Liverpool being a bigger club, title contenders, with one of the best coaches in the game, and having Champions League football to look forward to.

Yeah, it's a mystery to me too.

We need to start sending scouts & making low ball bids on a few red herrings.

Todd was advised to follow the Brighton model of buying young, developing players at low prices to sell on at a large profit but he forgot everything except buy young players.

No, we need to insist on NDAs before we even start negotiating. No other industries operate like this.

We have a chip left though - sell to us or we now want £20m for Moder.

 

[Hiheidi]

£25 m

According to the Telegraph last September. Seeing Arteta’s failed move for Caicedo, in Feb 23 Chelsea made contact with Caicedo’s agents and wooed them for months. Caicedo’s new Albion contract wasn’t decisive as mentioned by @drew and @Weststander said at the time. Chelsea won them over, it was then months arguing over the fee with us. The 2023/24 Chelsea accounts or data FIFA force clubs to make public, will reveal a record breaking sum paid by Chelsea to agents, you can guess the rest. The agents wouldn’t allow Caicedo to move to any other club, they had control of him at a London hotel. The silver lining was that we made £30m more out of by Liverpool’s interference.

It’s wages and agents fees from clubs, again.

Wasn’t there a time when agents only made their income, x percent, from their players?

 

[Jim in the West]

If piece the reports together from various sources then it looks like we were all set to complete a swap deal with medicals booked and Chelsea got wind and made enquiries and now the player wants to hold out to see if Chelsea move to make offer and whilst this goes on our deal now stalled.

I wonder how much longer PBOBE and TB can keep up the pretence of welcoming the Chelsea directors to their seats pre-match.

 

[dstanman]

Must admit hate Chelsea more than Palace. There I have said it

 

[NorthstandRacoon]

i hate them more than palace at this point i think. there, i said it

I have to say, it feels like that currently. f***ing ****s. It's mental that they do this with us, either its sheer coincidence, or PURE laziness and weirdly copying us. Either way, f***ing them. FFP?! yeah right.

 

[Mancgull]

I wonder what deadline we give KDH and his agent?

 

[nwgull]

Stephen Ward vibes

At least Burnley needed a left back. Chelsea don’t need another CM.
