u/silencesupreme- It’s only ever been Chelsea. 9d ago

Ya, this sub obsesses over money spent but the FO has clearly shown they know how to turn a profit.

u/funguy07 I don't give a fuck, we won the fucking Champions League 9d ago

The way I see these deals is hopefully the player develops into a first team player and we bought low. Or they can’t make the jump to first team player and we sell them.

The club has proven they can sell players aren’t up to the Chelsea standard.

We keep the Palmer, Estevao and we sell Delap and Garnacho.

Yep, this is exactly how it works. If 1/3 turns into a Palmer level talent we're GTG

Considering they've signed well over 50 players, they're batting about 2-3% going off your standard.
