breadandcheese Posted 14 December 2018 Share Posted 14 December 2018 He is England's left back and has huge potential. It's no surprise that a club like Man City are interested. But it will take more than 50m, especially as he is a home grown player. Maybe throw in some players with the 50m like Roberts and Zinchenko.

RumbleFox Posted 14 December 2018 Share Posted 14 December 2018 In today's marker he is worth more than £50m. Hopefully we can hold on to him. X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flannel_Fox Posted 14 December 2018 Share Posted 14 December 2018 Assuming Fuchs is still leaving in the summer the club won’t let both first team left backs go. Not happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcfc278 Posted 14 December 2018 Share Posted 14 December 2018 (edited) Definitely a ploy to unsettle him just before we play them twice in the next 2 weeks. We'll see the old 'Peps arm round the shoulder' bo**ocks on Tuesday as well I imagine. Tell them where to stick it. However, it is mad as this time last year, a £50m offer for Chilly would have had us all laughing. Fair play to Ben for working so hard the last 12 months, came on leaps and bounds and could easily establish himself as England's first choice now.

SB87_LCFC Posted 14 December 2018 Share Posted 14 December 2018 (edited) I think Ben's a level headed sort of lad and will see that playing consistently for us is better than playing every 2-3 games for Man City to cement his place further in the England team - despite the lure of Champions League football and working with Guardiola. £50m seems to be the average fee papers throw about these days for players, I wouldn't be even batting an eye if I was Top or Puel.

RowlattsFox Posted 14 December 2018 Share Posted 14 December 2018 He might be tempted. He could go there and be first choice left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Man City really want him and are prepared to pay big, then he's gone. He would be daft to pass up working with one of the best coaches in the world at a club that will always be in with a hunt for silverware. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we all have that loyalty. Our best players will always be poached but we need to use this to our advantage in both timing of the sale and to attract good young players who know that if they sign for us and play well, then they can go on to bigger things (England call-ups and moves to the big clubs).

Very true, but in my eyes we need to show ambition and be signing the types of players that can push us up the league and to where all of us fans want us to be. Frustrating when newspapers release articles that basically make us look like a selling club when we have more money than most! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4DD0gg Posted 14 December 2018 Share Posted 14 December 2018 Man city really are scumbags, use to have a soft spot for them when they were the working class team of the city of manchester, now owned and run by scum bags. Pathetic thing is they dont even fill there stadium most of the time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cujek Posted 14 December 2018 Share Posted 14 December 2018 the question we need to ask is, is he worth 50 million in our side? possibly not i would say, but if we bagged 50 million for him, that would be 1, 25m striker, 1 10m LB and 1 15m winger, wouldn't 3 players with that kind of price tag be more beneficial to us than a young promising left back? i dont know its a tough one, there have been plenty of promising players that never amounted to anything, i think Chilwell is a cut above most. after balancing it all up, i would say sell and reinvest but thats just my humble opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say to us he’s worth more than £50m, he’s one of the best left backs in the Premier League atm imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xen Posted 14 December 2018 Share Posted 14 December 2018 Not even 6 months into a 6 year contract on a decent wedge, for the club which developed him from a young lad into first choice England international. As a club we'll say no, and Chilwell will accept that without too much disagreement. A few years down the line when Chilwell is approaching his peak and only has 2/3 years left on his contract he may want to move on and I think we'd accept a fair offer for him. Right now, though, LCFC is holding all the cards and can dictate how this one plays out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
