Yeah. That still sticks in the craw though. 

 

I mean what would you pay for him now? And to think : suggestion is his release was far lower. 

we got them back with the fee for Drinkwater

Scant payment. That left us shorthanded. Thirty million up, I do concede.

21 year old England international left back 5 years away from his prime. Come back with 60.

We don't want or need to sell him so they shouldn't waste their time coming back at all.

 

We won't progress by selling our best players and he's on a new five and a half year contract to warn off any suitors.

we would have been short either way he was injured until nearly January

Not sure we did considering what we've spent and still not managed to replace him.

Spurs fans reckon they can get him for 25million

Spuds transfer policy is the eighth wonder of the World.  Closely followed by Celtic’s, whose deluded fans ‘think’ we are going to gift them Benkovic, if they offer us the same fee we paid for him a few months back.   January is going to be hilarious.

[RowlattsFox]

I don't think he'll be too bothered about Spurs, he'll probably be on a better wage here. I worry about Man City coming in though, Mendy is good but I don't think they'd be bothered about replacing him. Chilwell is what Pep likes in a full back, he's crossing isn't great but he'll have so many options playing for Man City it wouldn't matter, good with the little one-twos and through balls too.

[coolhandfox]

Can't see him going anywhere unless there is a unbelievable fee involved.

 

 

[sylofox]

In todays sun Mr Puel says he's going to cost anyone the wants him north of £70m. Not sure he's anywhere near that just yet. Or is it just a polite way of saying FECK OFF

[Beechey]

Shows how a great performance is becoming the norm for Ben, so much so that after one, nobody bats an eyelid.

 

Played exceptionally well today, I thought.

[Hanan96]

Anyone can tell me why he's bad at crossing during open play yet got decent set pieces?

I thought he lost his way a bit in the last 25 minutes? Perhaps knackered, and we're getting used to seeing him play so well it becomes noticeable when he appears to make unforced errors

Easy - he’s not. He’s improved substantially in his crossing this season.

He improved a bit yes but still, his set pieces and crossing in open play are far different quality

Well - wouldn't you expect a ball when a guy has all the time in the world to set up and pick his spot to be better than one taken under pressure, on the move move with a defender(s) bearing down on him?

[eaststand68]

Overrated just like Maddison and Gray.  70 million not a chance and besides Puel wont have a say he wont be here P45 time..

He was my MOTM yesterday. Thought he was class again.

Nah so the problem is composure?

One of the so called big 6 will be waiting to nick him and sticking on the bench like they do

Man City have just lost their left back for a long time, following surgery. I bet Pep would love Chilwell.

Well they’d most certainly have to bid close to their transfer record for us to even consider it!

or is it on set pieces he has more than just Vardy to aim at with a cross, David Beckham would look shit at crossing in this team
