I don’t know what tf you’re tuning into to get your information, but you need to stop. It’s sad seeing a fan buy into so many negative narratives about their club with next to no basis. The fact you end with using Chelsea to support this point is insane. Like you couldn’t pick a worst example out the league than them. Please stop consuming whatever is making you think this way.
60m for Havertz who hasn’t hit the ground running. 60m for Mason Mount who looks shit. 30m for aging Kovacic. 20m for Pulisic who was shit for them last year. That’s just this year. Last year their outgoings were kinda shit. Year before that, however, 40m for an uninspiring Tammy Abraham, 35m for Kurt Zouma, combined 50m for unknown products in Guehi and Tomori.
Compared to us : balo for 30m and 15m for Xhaka which I’ll say both are good business. However, 11m for Guendouzi (frozen out), 6m for Torreira(nut job), 4m for Leno, 4m for Mavropanos, ONE SINGULAR SALE in 21/22 of Willock for 30m is also good business.
The thing is though, I listed almost all of our sales(bar the Americans and Mari). Chelsea had more sales than what I listed.
I think we’re too scared to sell to top clubs. No coincidence that our biggest fees in recent years (balo as an exception) were Ox to Liverpool, Iwobi to Ancelotti’s Everton, and Willock to a newly taken over Newcastle.
