[Albion] McCallister and cash for Colwill...........

[Perkino]

Chelsea could really struggle to sign any players this summer. A huge squad of players who are not playing well and no European football. Joining them could see a player be another 2/3 years away from challenging for a champions league spot, a lot of work required to fix them

If MacAllister is worth 70-75M then you’re saying sign Colwill for 80M plus? I mean I like Colwill but he’s more in the 30-40M bracket currently.

Plus doubt either player will pick those teams out of all their options.

I reckon Colwill is more £25m based on this season.

Good player but lots of scope for improvement.

Pretty sure Mac will end up at Liverpool, so don't see this as likely.

 

[Invicta]

What true Albion fan would wish Chelsea on Alexis, I’m out!

Yep totally. He deserves better

 

[Braggfan]

I love Mac Allister and wish him well, but to be honest if he wants to go, I dont think it matters where he ends up. All the big clubs are as bad as each other, so I dont really care where he goes. I just think its about the club getting the best deal they can.

In terms of value, I think we seem desperate to prove we're not getting ripped off which is why we all want 60/70million plus for him. But if you consider that we'll never spend that sort of sum on a replacement, and we're not hard up for cash, then really we don't need a huge fee if we're getting a quality player incoming as part of the deal. Therefore i think any deal that brings Colwill here would be a good one, even if the cash element is significantly lower.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Oh didn't know he had agreed to sign.. He's got his work cut out but he is a good project manager and will be given a budget of some sorts.

He'll have to get rid of a lot of players, though I could see him signing Kane. They get on well plus he won't have to leave London.

Kane wants to win something, though.

 

[Perkino]

Colwill is not the same as White, less premier league experience and done nothing at Chelsea. They would struggle to get more than £30m for him this summer. MacAllister is a world cup winner and played almost every available minute for 18+ months. We would be foolish to accept anything less than £80m considering what Enzo Fernandez cost Chelsea and how the two compare in premier League quality. Colwill plus £50m would be the region however FFP could work in our favour.

 

[The Fits]

Mac is going to Liverpool, I'd put money on that.

 

[Littlemo]

Yeah, I mean the amount of cash matters but if Mac is going to go, it really doesn’t matter to us where it is. So if it means we can get in a good player we want and a bit of money, then why not.

I think it is harder than we think to find good players who fit the system and the club. That Colwill has been here on loan and is great, is a massive blessing in that regard, and worth more than money.

70m to Liverpool according to the Beeb.

70m to Liverpool according to the Beeb.

North of that figure
it’s how we roll

 

[LamieRobertson]

Blimey so much football for us to play yet and so much to achieve …to bother about this sort of stuff

Well today was enjoyable……four more to enjoy

@BluesRockDJ just checking you haven't made a mistake and really do mean Ali Mac plus cash for Colwill, rather than Colwill plus cash for Ali Mac?

The latter !
