Danny Drinkwater.

And he is not even close to as good as drink water.

i just don’t see him as a top half player.

[Wasyls Pec Deck]

A Chelsea mate of mine reckons it could be the start of one of these dodgy PSR mutual deals.

 

They pay us over the odds, we bank the profit to pass FFP, we buy one of their youngsters for 15m, they’ll bank that profit etc.

No formal offer has been made yet but the 25-year-old is believed to be keen only on a move to Stamford Bridge if he is to leave his boyhood club.

 

He's a Man United fan.

I just can't see this. To be honest he isn't a perfect fit for Enzo's system. Had a brilliant season don't get me wrong but isn't creative enough to be a high 8 usually and especially not in a top teir Premier League team. Even though it's from the Athletic just seems like a lazy story and a non starter. However, if they offered over £40 million we would be silly to turn down and he will probably end up like Drinkwater 

[South Shire Fox]

I like him but agree with others that itd just be Drinkwater 2.0. We all know hes not good enough for Chelsea and it wont work. Brighton would be a good move for him, Chelsea will be a career ruiner

It's still his boyhood club, he's been playing for us since he was..... a boy!

[CloudFox]

This is wild. I really like KDH, and he clearly loves the club...but this has another Drinkwater written all over it. I don't think it's even a question of if he could step up—I just don't think he'd get played enough at this point in his career.

No. 

 

Boyhood club means you support them as a kid.

Exactly! It’s a very strange one but could be excellent for us if we can get 40 million for him.

[Tuna]

Fed up with Chelsea. Piss off!

[frany104]

Yeah, £50 mill and one of their players in return plus a loan. He is a good player but he’s an average prem level player. Hopefully the money sorts out PSR and we can then spend it on a new CM.

[Wymsey]

Chelsea, whenever they see someone decent.

Omari Hutchinson in return would be good or bashir humphreys. 

[Haywood_6]

I can't see them offering 40m. I think it will be closer to 35m, we'd probably have no choice but to accept it either - which is a shame as he's probably our most progressive player. I can see why Enzo wants him but it's funny how Chelsea keep coming back for our players. Drinkwater, Fofana, Chilwell have all flopped. The only one that really worked out for them was Kante. If we lose KDH though it puts even more pressure on us to pull some rabbits out of the hat in the market. Oh well, at least it's never dull supporting us.

Hopefully not Casadei.

Cesare my boy, welcome back.

[UniFox21]

Likely untrue, but wouldn't object if he went there for that amount.

Omari is going to Ipswich.

Pretty much ‘the’ elite source at the minute - I’d say this one is happening then

I personally think this is unsettle player and will now drag on. Will happen but it won’t be near 40 mill. They will screw and we all know it. 

[moore_94]

At least when it is this kind of value Whelan gets involved so Rudkin can’t sell him for £5 and a pot noodle

[winteriscoming]

He’s no where near good enough for Chelsea. Having said that I’d happily take 40m+ for him.

Isn't the issue with us that we don't sell players at all? It's either a decent sale like Fofana or Chilwell or we turn down good offers like Soumare and Iversen.

[Dahnsouff]

Brighton fans called this anarl 

[lcfc sheff]

Obviously this is the start of a potentially dodgy PSR related deal. Which academy player are we buying back? Trevor chalobah? Broja?
