Transfer prices are rocketing this summer, Diomande quoted at £112m. Newcastle turn down £80m for Tonali, Add on the agent fees and taxes and that is serious investment, maybe our stockpiling of potential might turn out to be a good move after all. Too many out there having a knock before the full picture unfolds.
21 Jun 2026 13:00:01
Greenaway, according to some, we have "blown" £1.5bn ish. Still makes me laugh.
I hope we never find out how much a player is worth in the market, as I want them all to be successful and we never sell them. If only!!
21 Jun 2026 13:20:58
Remind me again, Tom, where we finished last season?
21 Jun 2026 13:25:42
Some of our signings will have added value, but those are the ones we should keep. Can't see any profit on players like Jorgensen, Garnacho, Gittens, Delap, Fofana etc.
21 Jun 2026 13:53:32
Bill, we finished where we finished last season because we lost Maresca, but let's just drop that one now.
21 Jun 2026 14:10:07
The term "blown" suggested the players must have "zero" value.
Some players will create a profit if ever sold and some will not.
We all judge player values differently and as fans we often forget any accrued loan fees.
I personally think we will show a profit on Delap and eventually Gittens, if we decide to sell. I wouldn't have a clue about the current book value of Fofana. I think Garnacho and, surprisingly, Jorgensen will both go out on loan.
21 Jun 2026 15:19:01
100% correct, Tom, those who choose to use terms like "blown" are generally looking for clicks or have agendas. The investment in a player is only realised on the sale of said player at some point, which was my original point. We have stock piled a lot of promising young talent at generally reasonable prices, bar the odd exception.
Take Jackson as an example, purchased for around £32 million, had one loan fee of £15 million, would likely sell for well in excess of £17 million, and yet I have seen numerous comments about money being "blown" on him. The list goes on.
21 Jun 2026 16:06:57
While we still had Maresca, we were 5th and 15 points behind Arsenal, and had hit bad form. Replacing him with Rosenior was idiocy, but Maresca wanted out and, frankly, put himself well ahead of caring about the club.
Far too early to know what our squad will finally look like after the window closes, but losing Cucurella is not a great start.
But, like others, I am hoping Alonso can be given the players he needs and wants for us to get Champions League qualification again this season. It already seems an age since we won it in 2021 under Tuchel and Abramovich.
21 Jun 2026 16:13:26
Personally, Greenaway, I would give Jackson another chance. I think there is a player in there, and Palmer would be happy to see him back.
I agree Maresca running out on the club destabilised us, but the SDs/owners did not help our cause by employing Rosenior, who was definitely not ready for a gig like ours.
On the players' front, we have some really talented youngsters that I hope Alonso can mould into a winning team.
With the amount of players we bought, there were obviously some that would not make it, but I believe we are selling for decent prices.
The team that has done well so far this window is Spurs. They have stabilised their backline for £52mil.
21 Jun 2026 16:27:25
I agree with you, Bill. We do have some very talented young players and now a very talented manager who played at the very highest level, toppled the mighty Bayern Munich in a one-team league, and gained good experience dealing with egocentric players and owners in Madrid.
With the addition of 3 or 4 top players, I can see us challenging hard for the Premier League, something we haven't done in 10 years, 6 under Roman and 4 under Blue.co.
21 Jun 2026 16:27:47
It is a matter of opinion if we have blown money on players. We have certainly spent money and wages on players who aren't up to standard. I'm not that fussed about that argument. I am more concerned about the players' contribution on the field, rather than the fee or wages.
However, if you are looking at value for money, Eden tops the list. He gave us joy on the pitch. We bought him for £32 million, and with the add-ons we got around £120 million from Madrid. That's what I call a bargain!
21 Jun 2026 17:48:29
Sad that football has reached a point where we judge a player on book value and amortisation as opposed to actual performance.
21 Jun 2026 17:54:49
Just thinking about the goalkeeper situation. I will be p**sed off if Sanchez starts as No 1 next season. There are links to Costa, but I doubt it will happen. If it did, where does that leave Penders? Alternatively, we could go for a short term solution by signing someone like Ter Stegen or Sommers on a short term contract, and let them fight it out with Penders for the No 1 spot.
21 Jun 2026 17:57:07
I'm with you there, Jimbo. What a player Hazard was, and what a bargain too. I remember, at the time, moaning pundits and punters saying we had only got him because no one else would pay his agent's fees! They were all left with egg on their faces, with the joy and trophies he delivered for us.
21 Jun 2026 19:01:16
Jimbo, what does "blown" mean? Is it what they cost or how they perform?
Cucarella looked like a very poor investment for a season. We got a further three seasons of tremendous playing performances, and then, apparently, a book profit when he decided to leave for family reasons.
We have different valuations about players
When we sign them, and then when we might see them.
As far as salaries are concerned, I believe our club has changed more of its player salaries towards PRP.
I think that was a sound move by our current owners. My guess is our average player basic salary is lower than at other clubs.
I think players have always been judged by fans on a value for money basis for a period of their club playing career. If they are performing well, it's hardly ever mentioned. Play badly, and it's a heavy burden for some players to carry.
21 Jun 2026 19:23:52
Tom, I didn't use the term "blown," I referred to the contributions by players on the pitch. If you believe players like Lavia, Fofana, Delap, Gittens, Garnacho, Gusto, etc. have contributed on the pitch, you are entitled to your opinion, but we still have the 5th highest wages bill in the Premier League to finish 10th.
21 Jun 2026 20:05:14
Jimbo, I deliberately didn't post the poster's name who consistently uses the term "blown" when referring to our transfer spend.
I have "never" mentioned any player's contribution on the pitch while referencing their reported transfer fee. I learned a valuable lesson when Cucarella proved me totally wrong about his abilities.
My reference to our wage bill was, as I understand it, more the owners including more performance clauses than there had been in the past, while being aware that performance clauses are in virtually all footballers' contracts.
Us now being the 5th highest salary payers in the Premiership is interesting, but given what I have been reading over recent seasons, I would assume we were recently close to the top salary payers. If that is the case, I see it as a move in the right direction. It will also be interesting to see if the player salary levels reflect us finishing 10th in next season's reported accounts.
21 Jun 2026 20:31:10
I would consider the right direction as competing for trophies.
21 Jun 2026 21:05:39
Jimbo, that would be nice, and as usual, I will start next season full of optimism, but as I've said before, the majority of my 60 plus years of supporting the mighty Blues has been disappointing.
Of course, we did get to a domestic cup semi and final last season, so I suppose in a small way we did compete for some trophies.
20 Jun 2026 21:36:10
Now back in a hotel after spending a wonderful day at Royal Ascot.
I wa fortunate enough to meet and cahatro people from all corners of the globe including Manchester and Morecombe.
The venue is fantastic and the amount of money being spent was "probably" outrageous but to my sad eyes it was worth the spend.
It's an occasion that people dress up for but the singalong after racing was well attended by all age groups and loud. The younger generation seem to know the lyrics to some World War Two favourites. The national anthem was sung with gusto with the vast majority of people taking off their top hats to show respect to our King.
I have been fortunate enough to travel around a significant percentage of the world but when do this sort of event so well.
My god it was good to be involved with people having fun.
21 Jun 2026 13:27:26
Tom, that's because you weren't at Stamford Bridge.
21 Jun 2026 14:16:33
Stamford Bridge was about average on the fun stakes during my time of supporting the club. I have never worked it out, but I would think I have been disappointed more often than satisfied supporting Chelsea.
Anyway, the point was, virtually every person at Ascot yesterday looked to be enjoying themselves and the singalong at the end of racing was absolutely brilliant.
Anyone who hasn't been for a day at Royal Ascot should, in my opinion, put it in their bucket list. Not for the racing, but just to soak up the joy of the occasion.
21 Jun 2026 15:17:22
Tom, Ascot is too posh for me. I prefer the Cheltenham Festival more suited to my station in life.
{Ed001's Note - I used to live near Ascot for a bit, was hellish when the racing was on as you couldn't go anywhere. The roads were just nose to tail for hours.}
21 Jun 2026 19:08:07
Blimey, I didn't find Ascot yesterday as "posh," as I say, it seemed to be a cross-section from around the world.
We seem to do these sort of events so well. Obviously Cheltenham, Goodwood, York, Aintree and Chester spring to mind in racing, but we have Wimbledon, The Open and The Ashes (at Lords).
I love these events. It's strange, but if I can get to them, they all always give me a buzz and a sense of pride.
20 Jun 2026 20:13:19
Chelsea and Manchester City are close to reaching a financial settlement worth over £10m for Enzo Maresca, with negotiations between Chelsea and Man City over the final details ongoing.
Chelsea have all the evidence that Man City tapped Maresca up and are willing not to use it if the settlement figure is paid.
This is quite a shift in the way Blue. co are now becoming more ruthless.
Top business people learn quickly, reset and go again, it has already happened with the change in direction of squad building and the appointment of Alonso as manager.
Forget project 2030, this might just be project full on.
21 Jun 2026 14:50:40
I think £10m is letting City off the hook. I would be looking for a minimum £10m plus a lot extra (another £20m) if it was an obvious illegal approach.
21 Jun 2026 18:53:10
Tom, strange that you say "It's obvious..." when you usually say "I don't really know." I'm taking your stance; I don't really know what went on with Maresca and City, and I don't really care. Presumably, we will get some money, but it's all pretty trivial; we have much bigger fish to fry.
21 Jun 2026 19:30:49
Jimbo, it is "obvious." The Club found out that Maresca was having secret talks with City. Not a single person from City had asked Chelsea for permission to speak to Maresca.
You might not care, but I certainly do care, and I believe a lot of other fans care. To be honest, part of me says f*** the money, just report City to the governing bodies.
You are correct, unlike a lot of posters, I usually state "I'm only guessing" or "I don't know for sure." I was once told by the player himself that he was going to sign a contract extension, only for that player to sign for another club a few weeks later. Most fans are only "guessing." I like to admit it.
21 Jun 2026 20:15:55
Tom, you obviously know a lot more about what happened than anyone else. If there is a settlement, there will be a Non Disclosure Agreement. You obviously have it in for City. If they are found guilty, they should indeed be appropriately punished.
However, let's not forget our breaches: true, we came clean, but that is the only mitigation: pot: kettle. Tom, I said I don't care: I don't speak for other supporters, and never have.
21 Jun 2026 20:45:48
Jimbo, you constantly bring up our breaches and I always say the same thing. The club should always cooperate fully with any potential breach, and if found guilty, accept the punishment after any appeal process is considered or completed.
It is not only City that imposes NDA's on any contractual settlement, but NDA's are now in general use across a wide range of industries. My guess is, if we do reach an agreement with City, then an NDA will be signed by both clubs.
I am not a fan of NDA's, particularly in the area of illegal contact or inducement to breach a contract. The courts in this country take a very dim view of inducement to breach contracts, and have issued severe penalties to companies, and even banned offending directors involved in such behaviour as being company decision makers.
That is another reason, sadly, why, if an agreement between the clubs is reached, an NDA will be signed.
21 Jun 2026 21:23:00
Tom, NDAs are used for cover ups and are anti-democratic. I mention our breaches because you keep going on about City and you don't know the outcome of the process. We self- reported and fully cooperated with the authorities and rightly were given credit in the sanctions.
However, we did breach the rules which is beyond argument because of our admissions. That is my point about pot:kettle. After the conclusion of the FA investigation we can move on and concentrate on football.
21 Jun 2026 21:40:21
Just to clarify. I am not a fan of NDA agreements because they are misused by money companies and individuals, but I have to also acknowledge that an NDA agreement can be necessary for other reasons, including real security risks.
I have consistently said, when and if found guilty of any rule breach, accept the punishment (after any appeal) and move on without bleating.
While I don’t know the punishment that City will receive if found guilty for one or all of their 115 charges, I have zero doubt they will be found guilty.
As far as the illegal approach to Maresca is concerned, they are guilty in my opinion, and I think most fans would be in agreement on that score. If a substantial fee is not paid to Chelsea, I hope we do report them for tapping up, but my guess is a fee will be agreed and an NDA signed. We will all be then left guessing as to how much money City have paid to stop us reporting them.
21 Jun 2026 22:05:25
Tom, you have zero doubt about City being found guilty: obviously you are in the know. I agree there must have been something untoward regarding Maresca and City, otherwise there wouldn't be negotiations: whether or not it breached rules, I don't know.
As I said, I don't care. I posted many times that I didn't think Maresca could take us to the highest level and wasn't that fussed when he left. That said, I wasn't prepared for the disaster of the appointment of Rosenoir.
21 Jun 2026 22:21:24
I doubt there is a football fan in the whole of England who doesn't think City are guilty of some, if not all, of the 115 charges against them.
I repeat, yet again, this is my opinion, but I am totally convinced of my opinion. Of course, if I am wrong and a joke "not guilty on all counts" judgement does happen, it certainly will not be the first time I have made a mistake.
As far as you not caring about Maresca and any illegal approach, that is up to you, but again I think a substantial percentage of Chelsea fans do care about this issue. I also think the majority of fans believe City should pay a substantial fee to Chelsea. If they do not, they should be reported to the football governing bodies.
21 Jun 2026 22:44:42
Tom, as I keep saying, I speak for myself and not the majority of Chelsea supporters, unlike you. As for the City case, you are probably right, most football fans think City are guilty. However, what is indisputable is that none of them have seen the evidence or heard the legal arguments: I am a great believer in due process. My "guess", without any knowledge of the evidence etc., is that City will be found guilty of some charges and others will be dismissed. That is just a gut feeling based on absolutely no knowledge of the evidence in the case. I do agree that it needs a resolution for the sake of football, but I fear it will go on and on.
21 Jun 2026 22:59:48
Jimbo, I have consistently said that this is my opinion. I do not speak for other supporters or any supporters groups.
I am convinced that the vast majority of fans believe City are as guilty as sin, and that a significant percentage of Chelsea fans care about an illegal approach to a serving Chelsea manager.
I repeat, if I am wrong, I will apologise.
21 Jun 2026 23:16:29
Tom, if there was an approach to Maresca which breached the rules, they should pay compensation. My Chelsea mates don't give a monkeys about this issue. As I said, we have more important issues to concentrate on rather than 10 or 20 million pounds from City. Take the money. Next season may give an indication of how the club goes forward for the future. This issue is a trivial distraction to the bigger picture: not worth a mention IMO.

19 Jun 2026 18:28:12
Some transfer news.
Grimaldo to Atletico Madrid for £10M. Rules him out from joining Chelsea.
Jimmy Jay Morgan to WBA for £4M. Chelsea has a substantial sell on clause. I believe he was a free transfer so pure profit.
Maresca targets Malo Gusto for Man City with Chelsea open to selling him to provide a space for Josh who is highly regarded by Alonso.
Source. Various.
19 Jun 2026 19:47:33
Rpd, thanks. Wouldn't be worried about Gusto going particularly if it opens up a route for Josh.
20 Jun 2026 14:12:07
Absolutely agree, Jimbo.
20 Jun 2026 16:06:32
Also, not too fussed about Grimaldo going to AM either.
Our incoming transfers need to be top quality.
20 Jun 2026 16:38:47
I wonder if PSG might come in for Gusto if Achraf Hakimi goes down for raping that young lady. He was getting pelters last night from the Scottish fans.
As for us, Lewis Hall would be my choice,
he knows the club, grew up with the likes of Levi and Trev and if I'm not mistaken, we have a buy back clause as well.
Can invert into midfield which will suit Alonso.
21 Jun 2026 13:02:46
Greenaway, I am not sure we have a buyback clause for Hall. I think we might have a sell on clause, and if that is the case, it would act like a discount.
21 Jun 2026 13:52:00
Thanks for that, Tom. I think you are correct.
21 Jun 2026 21:48:41
Not interested in getting Hall back, he is okay, but nothing special, which was my take on Guehi.
19 Jun 2026 12:15:52.
Was chatting to the boys last night about who our greatest ever player is.
A few names in the hat included our much loved captain, leader, legend John Terry, Super Frankie Lampard, The King of Stamford Bridge, Peter Osgood, and the legendary Gianfranco Zola.
JT took our vote by a whisker.
19 Jun 2026 13:25:10
Not even close. Jimmy Greaves.
19 Jun 2026 15:26:51
Jimmy Greaves got a mention, Tom, but was ruled out as most of us felt he was more Spurs than Chelsea during his career.
19 Jun 2026 16:02:51
I think Peter Bonetti is up there.
19 Jun 2026 16:13:31
What a keeper The Cat was, Bill, but does he get above Big Pete as the all-time greatest ever player?
19 Jun 2026 16:14:34
Captains don't come much greater than John Terry. He was Mr. Chelsea for 19 years, and led the club to greatness throughout his time at Stamford Bridge, winning a ridiculous amount of silverware in West London.
The Cobham graduate donned Chelsea blue on 717 occasions and is among the Premier League greats.
The centre-back won five Premier League titles, four FA Cups, three League Cups, the Champions League and the Europa League with the Blues.
Simply astonishing.
19 Jun 2026 18:11:04
It's hard to nail down the greatest Chelsea player: it's about era and context, not just trophies, because other players contributed. If it's about talent and getting you off your seat, Eden's up there. As for Terry, great CB, but I still don't like him.
19 Jun 2026 20:25:40
The comments and opinions we have about players, I always find intriguing. We make comments as if we know them.
I have had the good fortune of spending time with JT, and he always came across as a really nice bloke. Strangely, I was never a fan of Lamps, who again I met a couple of times.
I had family reasons to be involved with Wise and Zola.
Obviously, Zola was just class, but again this might surprise a few people, and Wise was absolutely top drawer.
Can I just add, none of the players' personalities had anything to do with me loving or disliking a player. Greaves was just class, and I have never been so gutted as I was when we sold him for financial reasons.
19 Jun 2026 20:45:13
Tom, I don't know Terry, but plenty of things about him have been published. He's certainly not a devout Christian.
19 Jun 2026 20:59:02
As I've said before, I also had dealings with Mr Terry Snr.
Can I also say one of the most horrible people I have ever met in football was Mathew Harding. Not a nice man in my opinion.
19 Jun 2026 20:46:54
JT was a great player and ud say arguably our best althought i always preferred frank.shame JT is a scumbag of a bloke makes it harder to appreciate how good he was on field
19 Jun 2026 21:28:44
Tom, apart from your family and long standing friends: you don't really know people. We all have our faults but some people are scumbags. Generally people who become rich have trodden over many people to get to the top.
19 Jun 2026 21:45:14
Jimbo, it's true we really only know the people we are close to!!
I try and judge people after more than one meeting, and I really don't care if they are rich or poor.
I try not to make negative comments about people I have had no personal dealings with, and I certainly don't judge people from media s***.
Over the years I have been involved in various charities, and it's via those charities that I have met lots of well known personalities. I guess most people look good at these events.
19 Jun 2026 22:01:21
JT is a typical east end English lad, make of that what you will. For me, a total scumbag of a bloke is that fraud Hakim Ziyech who just turned up every day, took the pay and pissed off. We see things different.
19 Jun 2026 22:57:22
Typical east end lad that slept with his mates wife . Said things to anton ferdinand and has since done similar and supported similar after retiring although hardly surprising you're a big fan greenway youve made it clear what sorta person you are
19 Jun 2026 23:29:33
Don't know whether someone being nice or nasty should count when calculating how good or great someone is purely as a player.
It is a bit different to saying who your favourite player is, though the two can be connected.
Terry must be in the conversation for CFC's greatest player for defensive record, leadership, longevity of playing for the club, trophies won, plus being the CB who has scored the most goals ever in the EPL.
Even if he is not a nice person. Lampard is also in that conversation, as are Bobby Tambling and Peter Osgood. Didier Drogba too, cos of the big match, trophy-winning goals he scored.
Favourite player surely can be a combination of liking the player as a person plus enjoying watching him on the pitch. For me, Zola, Kante, Hazard score exceptionally highly.
20 Jun 2026 06:49:41
Great post, J, well balanced and reflective.
20 Jun 2026 12:43:48
"A typical East End lad," what on earth has the area he was born in or grew up in got to do with anything?
I take people as I find them.
20 Jun 2026 13:19:08
Tom, when I was a teenager growing up in North West London, we considered ourselves cooler and more fashionable than kids from East or South London - nothing has changed. Lol.
20 Jun 2026 15:45:07
I have favourite players from different eras. Charlie Cooke was an early favourite, followed by Clive Walker and Pat Nevin, then Zola and Arjen Robben, before my all-time favourite, Eden Hazard.
20 Jun 2026 21:40:14
Jimbo, I was raised in South London, but I'm not a fan of stereotyping people. I mean, I did once meet a nice person from North London.
21 Jun 2026 07:45:13
Tom, don't know much about North London; probably passed through it to get somewhere.
19 Jun 2026 07:39:16
{Ed's Note - OptimumShots has posted a new article entitled, Everton Need One Clear Squad Plan
18 Jun 2026 09:41:17
Of course it’s early days and we shouldn’t get carried away but unbeaten after ten games is a better start than I had dared hope for. The team is showing real commitment and a desire to win every game. Well done the owners for appointing Alonso and well done the SD’s for recruiting some real talent.
Or
I can’t believe how bad these players are.
They do not deserve to wear the badge, they are an embarrassment to the club. The owners never fail to disappoint with their choices as manager and all the SD’s should be sacked.
I personally can’t wait for the new season to start. Not having mood swings doesn’t agree with me!
18 Jun 2026 16:17:29
Tom, we haven't challenged for the Premier League title for 10 years, 6 years under our much-loved Roman, and 4 years under the much-derided Blue.co, partly due to poor recruitment under both regimes, and partly due to poor coaching, but equally because of the competitive nature of the league and our rivals.
Arsenal went 24 years without winning the title, Man U have gone 13 years, and Liverpool went 20 years. These things are cyclical, and our time will come again.
17 Jun 2026 21:36:55
Stones said recently in an interview that he has been fit virtually all season.
I think we could do a lot worse than sign him on a free transfer.
18 Jun 2026 02:12:34
Think it would be a hard pass for me.
18 Jun 2026 08:19:15
Tom
He has been fit because he never plays.
Definitely a no.
18 Jun 2026 08:24:11
Historically, he would have a no from me, but he is experienced, and he has always had ability. My guess is the salary would be too high for us, but if the club signed him, I could see the logic.
18 Jun 2026 09:29:21
Physically shot, injury prone and on big wages... sounds like just what we need at the minute, Tom.
18 Jun 2026 09:46:27
If my mate is right yet again, this may not be so outlandish as it first seemed. He tells me we are, along with other clubs, talking to his representatives.
Apparently Alonso is a fan, like Tuchel, as a player and dressing room influence.
18 Jun 2026 11:52:29
We need someone to start games more than we need dressing room influence. What good is leadership and xp when you play 10 games a season and we're left with Chalobah or Fofana starting still?
18 Jun 2026 13:28:37
It would be an absolute disaster.
18 Jun 2026 14:03:52
I thought Stones and Konsa were below the standard last night, Tom, and would like to see Marc and Trev start the next game. So that probably sums up my view on Stones joining us. Is he better than Trev? Our starting back 3 should be built around a pool of Levi, Josh, James, and Hato, with a world class leader thrown in as well.
Bastoni would be my pick, Trev as a back up. That would be 6 players vying for 3 places, with a couple of them also able to cover for our wingbacks. Clear out Disasi, BB, Tosin, and Fofana.
18 Jun 2026 15:48:58
Konsa was ok although maybe he's not a devout enough christian to deserve to play for your liking greenway
Stones struggled and looks like someone that hasn't played much in a couple years
18 Jun 2026 16:40:36
How we all see games differently, I thought James was the worst defender last night, with the other full back not far behind. Of course, that could be because Tommy Tickle had them both playing halfway up the pitch.
18 Jun 2026 17:05:05
I agree about Reece James, Tom, which is why I see him competing for one of the right-sided centre-back slots and not as a marauding right wing-back after his injury issues.
18 Jun 2026 18:17:16
I was also told that Gordon played last night? He has to improve as the tournament progresses because he was anonymous.
18 Jun 2026 18:31:26
Reece was average, but I don't see him as a full time CB. Gordon was very poor, and definitely needs to step up. Any argument about Bellingham and Morgan Rogers should be put to bed. Admittedly, Mr has come on as a sub, but he looks bang average.

Jimbo, I'm sort of with you on Reece. He is probably our best player, but where do we put him? He is injury prone, so wing back won't work. In midfield? Sure, he can do a job, but there are better options. Right back? Probably his best position, so maybe Alonso sees what I see and goes 4 at the back.
Right side of a back 3? A little short, especially with Hato the other side, although he, Hato, has an incredible leap. Alonso will be on £5m plus to sort these questions, and my faith is with him.

Greenaway, yes, that is a conundrum for Alonso if he adopts a back three. James is a natural right back, which is his best position. I am a believer in playing players in their natural positions, if possible.

I agree, Jimbo. Play to our strengths, and as Reece James is our best player, go with a back 4 and play him at RB?
