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

    A small point, but why do so many media outlets get his age wrong? Assuming Wikipedia is correct he is 24, yet I've seen 25 and 26 years old given in some reports.

    He can still turn down any club he wants. He's not obliged to agree a contract with Chelsea. However, as Chelsea are prepared to pay about twice what City were prepared to pay he will realise that he's never going to get a move to City. So it's go to Chelsea, get a big pay rise, play champions...

    Caicedo is our Bissouma replacement (and sooner rather than later upgrade). We've strengthened up front and Welbeck looks like he might stay fit for longer. If we can sign a replacement for Cucurella (yes he won't be as good), then overall I think our squad will be stronger. But we will need a...

    Veltman came on at half time (https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/58289648) and I am sure he went to left wing back.

    That game was horrendous but March did not play (I think he was out injured). If I remember correctly Veltman ended up playing left wingback.

    This seems like getting upset about something that has happened. Do City fans have a history of this? Did they boo Kane?

    Tony's issue with Brentford's chairman suggests he's not always that quick to forgive and forget. Although in this case I agree, if Man City offer what want we will sell regardless of their conduct.

    Also if the average they are using is the mean it can get skewed by a small number of very expensive tickets (perhaps they included 1901 prices to get their average). In terms of affordability what’s important is the cheapest tickets (as long as there a sensible number of them) and prices in for...

    As I understand sell on clauses they are normally a percentage of anything over the original sale figure. After all if Cucurella flops at City and they sell him on for £25m it wouldn’t make sense that we get some of that money. Therefore aren’t they normally included on deals with a lowish...

    Ben White was PotS, with 4 years left on his contract and homegrown and he went for £50m. You could take the view that our history suggests £50m is enough.

    And the other half of this image is that the billionaire owners of the club we are dealing with are not shrewd individuals used to negotiating, but fools who won’t know how to deal with someone as clever as Tony Bloom.

    We could have given permission based on a verbal offer. Edit: although for €41m I very much doubt it.
