[Albion] Marc Cucurella *Signed For Chelsea 05/08/2022*

I too am glad it’s over, frankly it was a mess and farce and in spite of the (obscene) money it’s left me feeling cold, as I realise football is now utterly dominated by mercenary agents and puppet players who would literally sell their grandmother to chase money and prizes... it’s really, really depressing.

The money will most likely only help us control our debt, rather than fund expansive transfer action - which would see us chasing more mercenaries, and thus the circle goes ever on...

When you consider some people will freeze to death this winter, for me, it’s unacceptable in the extreme that one bloke can be worth £60+ million pounds... it’s just wrong on every level possible.

This whole sorry saga has left a bitter taste and I’m uncomfortable with it all tbh - I’m unsure why we’re celebrating any of this, it’s frightening, especially when you consider the economy for normal people is about to collapse... make no mistake, this is going to be a horrific few months.

When I’m literally deciding between food and heat this coming winter and recession - well, I’ll raise a semi frozen fingerless glove to our ex player and his doubtless ludicrous wages... yeah, good luck to him ... good luck my frozen backside.

I totally understand your distaste of the money involved in football - I turn off that part of my emotions so that I'm (most of the time) still able to watch a game that I enjoyed playing years ago and still enjoy watching. There are plenty of people in big business salaries too, and they are not entertaining at all.

Yes you’re right of course... time for a revolution.

Capitalism, globalisation - off with their grotesquely swollen heads.

 

[Mike Small]

Agreed. Considering they've got the deal done, it seems a really oddly-gloating thing to post. Distinct lack of class, IMO.

It's also a ****ing easy deal to do when you 10 times richer than the other club and have CL to offer. Not totally against a bit of bantz but bloody awful club.

Agree 100% . . . . But I still go to the odd game and try to forget that shit, and enjoy it for a game.

Hats off to TB for top rinsing. 400% in a year is a belter even in his book

 

[GT49er]

Apparently according to his welcome Insta, it’s always been a dream since a child to play for Chelsea, odd that it was only City?

City? I thought it was Barcelona ..........................

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

His knowledge seems to extend no further than young Irish lads.
Maybe he's a priest?

I think he's an economist/historian. Seems decent. But wrong on this occasion (again)

 

[Milano]

POTS, he should ****ing give those awards back. Supported Chelsea as a kid? Oh do **** off. He’s in for dogs abuse when he returns here. I’d love it if he was a one season wonder, plenty have struggled at Chelsea after a huge money move.

If he flops at Chelsea, it will do tremendous damage to our future ability to buy players, bring them on and sell them for top prices - so bearing that in mind, do shut up!

I'll raise two frozen fingers to the hairy cucumber - mercenary ****.

Trevor Sinclair has entered the room.

Someone must have showed him how to open the door in that case

 

[doogie004]

I believe Caicedo will be a better player than Biss, however that is not yet proven, but from what we have seen so far it looks likely. We will struggle for a better LWB than Cucurella, but I think we would miss Sanchez more. As I said, not sure we have just sold our two best players, two of our better players undoubtedly, but lets see how Mac Allister, Sarmiento, Mwepu, Caicedo, Mitoma, Trossard, Enciso, Lamptey, Undav, Kozlowski, Moder when he comes back, and even a rebuilt Welbeck get on this season.

I like to think that caicedo will b as good as biss to but right now he is not so as it stands we have sold our two best players but I do agree Sanchez is right up there await Newcastle bid on transfer deadline day

Well said.

 

[Invicta]

If he wanted out and didn't want to play for 'our club' then xxxx him ! If he's now claiming to be a lifelong Chelsea fan, how can we compete ? Rather see Solly at Left back.

I hope he gets a warm welcome when he returns and I hope he becomes the World's best left back to match his fee. We loved him with Albion, but he was too good to stay if a Champions League club came knocking. We've banked a fabulous fee. I want him to show the whole Blue Moon forum what they missed. I have no idea if his agent or Man City initiated the process, but they both messed up if they thought Bloom and Barber would roll over and sell him for £30m odd. Clearly City would have been his preference, but joining the new post Chelski project will be pretty exciting for him. He's not a Brighton fan, it's his job and the icing on a short football career is Champions League competition and trophies, not being the best and most popular fish in a smaller pond. It's still a great move if not the trophy laden City one and I bet if every single Albion fan had been in his position, the way it panned out they would have taken the move. I'd be embarrassed and disappointed if we don't give him a fantastic welcome back before the boys play Chelsea off the park.

 

[Southern Scouse]

I’m not looking forward to watching us as much as last season.
We simply do not have the quality or pace to play Potter football, and I fear that losing our two best players will damage the team immensely.

It really won't though...It won't make a scrap of difference imo

It really would, though.

I feel like all that stalking his arrival at the border was a waste of time.
