Mission accomplished. Caicedo, Sanchez, Wankstanley and Cucurella win f@ck all for the season.

Is there an Argentine who posts here occasionally, with detailed knowledge of their international team? His view would be interesting. To me Messi at long last in a WC had a great centre-midfielder with him doing the ‘heavy lifting’. With the defensive skill of Mascherano plus creativity.

Very young and naive. The two shyster agents from Madrid were/are allowed by FIFA rules to receive any sums they demanded from Chelsea. The deal was done surreptitiously in Feb 23. Caicedo was by a country mile their main asset and they struck when his stock was high.

Exploiting the £35m fee was the coup. Caicedo and Macca were two £80m players this time last year imho.

Your veil removed, angry that he’s playing brilliantly at a club you hate :lolol: .

In the WC he got them playing after not starting the opening disaster. Giving tempo, immaculate tackling, driving them forward, at last in a WC Messi had a midfielder who dovetailed perfectly. Macca was immense in his starts, a joy to watch from an Albion fan’s perspective. In the final he...

Unlike the Mark Beeney transfer, it seemed like Leeds were determined to not get to the add-ons. trigger point.

Haven’t seen it yet, pundits are saying that MacA was brilliant in the dying seconds today.

Unless we start the Real Madrid type release clause of £200m :lolol: . Let’s face it, Bloom plays the market like a fiddle. I can only think of one fee where I wish we’d extracted more …. Trossard. Bissouma’s reflected his contract was nearly up.

I realise player pay is purely guesswork, but online Chilwell’s supposedly on £10.4m a year. Giving immaculately coiffured hair, but a footballer going backwards.

My view from ShedEnd is Caicedo and Enzo getting destroyed …. cowards once the Liverpool kids came on.

A slight revision on that, I got the impression that at the beginning of February 23 Winstanley copied Arsenal’s move for MC and illegally reached an agreement with his agents. When it nearly went tits up, Eghbali took personal control. MC just a naive young pawn, albeit about to become one of...

His money lusting agent took total control, reaching an illegal deal with Winstanley/Clearlake exactly a year ago, after they copied Arsenal’s interest. Caicedo just a young, naive ‘asset’.

On that final day the agent and one of the Chelsea owners from the states took personal control, the player was swept out of the picture. It's a funny thing, £115m was madness, Liverpool unusually swept up in a Chelsea-esque dutch auction ... they got away with it. He is and will be a quality...

I’m sure that was once only the way? Funny how the football industry finds every conceivable way to exploit positions.

(Reports said) the agent secretly made contact and did a deal with Chelsea straight after Arteta failed to get Caicedo, exactly a year ago. He got a vast fee from doing that. In the previous year for example, ManC directly paid agents £51m and Chelsea £43m to buy an advantage in signing...

to top 7, to top half :D
