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

    be interesting to see how Cucu gets on in the post Potter Chelsea era it seemed at the time from quotes attributed to Boehly that Potter was instrumental in Cucu heading for Chelsea

    the biggest problem ive found with the way city fans viewed this from the start is they came at it from the viewpoint that the player was "up for sale" and we were under pressure to get it done. starting to see the same with Chelsea now

    not going to happen but wouldnt it be funny if we snatched Gomez from under Man Citys noses

    strange how neither city or chelsea fans can grasp firstly that the asking price has never been 50 million and was certainly never 30 million. the suggested 50m plus is a fairly loose guide. secondly and somewhat oddly they just cant get that we dont want or need to sell hence the inflated valuation

    Love how there are city fans on blue moon fuming because we've stitched them up having told them in May Cucu would cost 30m and then when they firmed up their enquiry we moved the goalposts. no way on earth we ever hinted that price to them

    if this is the case with Pep though, and I do think hes a good coach on the whole, surely he could have coached Ake into a left back worthy of his price tag just like Bielsa turned White into a world class defender

    im well aware of that,worded it badly. i meant that i still suspect its not worth a guaranteed 40m to us as it stands.

    this is exactly my thinking. the athletic article says City were able to raise their offer up to 40m. it doesnt read as if thats 40m straight down to me. Romano additionally has referred to this as worth up to 40m

    im not convinced either. i wouldnt be surprised if it does happen but with city so adamant they wont get close to 50million let alone with the plus they wont want to look like soft touches when it comes to future negotiations

    one of the twitter transfer news threads. i just thought some of it fitted with what we know and the reports today that city dont really want to go higher than 35m

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

    from what i read the second bid was a structured one worth up to 40 million. that seems to fit with the messaging today of still being interested but only at around 35 million. makes me think the second bid was 32 or 33 million plus extras which probably resulted in our stating that we were...

    whilst over on Blue Moon they are talking like our holding Cucurella hostage spells the end of his career and how we will be lucky to get half of what theyve offered in 18 months time. They really do believe they're doing us a favour offerinf what they have. on top of that of course our...

    we've never really gone for asking prices. anything in the media suggesting there is one in this case is guesswork

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

    naylor has frequently spoken of eyewatering offer being needed and yesterday was saying we viewed Cucurella as a better and rarer player than White hence valuing him in excess of 50 million

    point 8 not necessarily correct. one of the City twitter pages reporting that city have advised us they remain interested but only if the price is around 35 million

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

    even in the early stages when he said quite clearly that city believed a 30 million bid would be no issue

    that was a truly ridiculous headline. suspect the body of the article just quoted Romano a lot.
