Love it. Every result against the super league 6 plus Newcastle deserves celebrating

So I’ll admit I’m not a huge fan of Brighton. But what has Caicedo done to earn that fee? Other than Chelsea being crazy.

Brighton seem to have totally "Maguired" Chelsea.

A myth got created in the winter window that he was hot shot in demand. Somehow Brighton managed to work with it and that myth ran until Liverpool were in for him and that increased the price. Not worth anything near that price tag and Brighton must be wetting themselves laughing. Chelsea’s fault for paying it and they won’t learn.

105M Enzo misses penalty, West Ham keeper saves first ever penalty
115M gives away penalty

10 man West Ham best £1B Blues

What the heck have Chelsea spent all that money on?!? Imagine spending the best part of £1bn and ending up with a squad like that! If the Saudis don't bail them out they're a financial time bomb waiting to explode.

Yup I'm afraid your right. First you had the Government and the Premier League letting them off, even through they were billions in debt to Roman Abramovich (even through he said he'd waiver the debt). Which in principle shouldn't matter, the Premier League should have placed fines on the club no matter that the owner didn't want his fines back.

And now you have the seedy relationship with the Saudi's who seem to help them financially by buying there unwanted rubbish 🙄

Don't know, got sent to me by a mate.

 

Nothing ,but nothing is in poor taste if it insults Chelsea. 

 

The most despicable, tapping up players,breaking rules, finding loop hole cnuts there is.

 

Boolax to the lot of them, I hope they get found out and fall down a massive hole👍

I didn't know this but we apparently rejected Ivan Toney when he was 15. That would have been around 2011. He was ready to quit football until Northampton picked him up.

Firm building Liverpool’s Anfield Road stand files for administration

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/aug/17/liverpool-anfield-road-stand-administration-buckingham#:~:text=A club spokesperson said%3A ?Buckingham,for the match against Bournemouth

 

The redevelopment of Liverpool’s Anfield Road stand is facing further complications with the main contractor set to go into administration.

 

Liverpool announced last month that their £80m stand was behind schedule and would not be fully open for the first home game of the season against Bournemouth on Saturday. The club has now been notified that Buckingham Group, the main contractors on the delayed project, has applied to enter administration. The company employs more than 600 staff.

 

Liverpool expect Buckingham to continue work on the planned phased opening of the stand, which will increase the capacity to 61,000, but it remains to be seen whether the contractor can meet the rearranged schedule completion date of October.

Hope Chelsea do rubbish again. Disgusting the amount they can get away with spending, and overpaying at that too.
