Poch, the CG staying or going saga could well decided by contract issues.

Big Trev is a very solid professional who I hope never leaves.

But. but. pure profit .

{Ed001's Note - I don't understand this pure profit thing I keep seeing. It is simply not true as the club has to pay for the academy. You are better off keeping academy players as a rule, simply because they are usually on much lower salaries than players brought in from outside.}

I wouldn’t sell either Enzo has been playing injured for 6 months FairPlay to him it’s meant to be a hard condition also. We have 3 quality midfielder to rotate in there. I still stand by we’d be a better team playing 3 at the back. Would suit Enzo having protection behind him and also Palmer and Nkunku as 10’s it would suit them to a tee.

I agree ed1 it's a load of rubbish.

I repeat I wouldn’t sell either player but I’m more interested in the performance and result against teams currently in 4th and 5th.

The club will buy and sell players as it does in most seasons. Some of the sales I won’t be happy about and I’m sure some of our signings I won’t rate but I will support whoever we sign when they put on that Chelsea shirt.

I no longer feel attached to players and I truly HATE to say it but I now just see them as commodities but that isn’t a feeling that naturally sits well with me as just a fan. If that makes sense!

I’d 1 million percent sell Lukaku for £300m. Bout as much chance as Enzo being sold. He cost us over £100m. Utd, City, PSG, Real, Bayern and Saudi are the only clubs who could afford him. Real have no need for him, Bayern typically don’t spend that much. Unlikely Enzo would go to Saudi so that leaves Utd, City and PSG. Utd need more of a defensive CM/ DM given their squad. So just leaves City and PSG. Maybe one of them would bite but unlikely and probably not for over £100m. So maybe we could sell him for say £70-80m at a loss, meaning we have to raise an extra £20m to comply with PSR and then still have to sell Gallagher anyway and possibly even more players to make up for it. Ideal right?

The pure and profit is there’s not amortisation? As in lukaku, £100m over 5yrs is £20m per year, so if sold after 4 years for £20m would break even, Gallagher as there was no fee to buy if sold for £50m goes on the books as £50m profit?

Also Matt, Academy costs are not included in FFP calculations.

{Ed001's Note - it is PSR and that is no longer relevant. It is a %age of the revenue that you can spend on transfers, agent fees and wages.}

Ed, does the PSR % of revenue become active for the 24/ 25 season?

{Ed001's Note - they have to vote on it, but I expect so. It will apply to any team in European competition anyway.}

Thanks Ed. I assume there will different criteria for domestic and European competitions?

{Ed002's Note - Yes there are, but try and keep away from discussing finances.}
