Dearie me. Reading comprehension not your strong suit then?We've rattled you so much you're resorting to bigging up one of your rivals
What next a passionate defense of Leeds United?
The renties trying to sign some overrated german kid but struggling to do so despite no competition.
A frustrated Muppet with insecurities who can't read + a misguided notion of having a sense of humour.
That's not fair. Terry came through in the last 20 years as well as.... Ummmm
Some guy that's got anger issue's over our club so badly he didn't even realize he was responding to a Levekusen fan
I suppose you could count him.
He's claimed!I suppose you could count him.
Maybe in a few years they could claim pulisic (if his hamstrings last that long) once he gets a british accent?

£90m he'll cost
Only noticed that now. Yeah, that's a new one, but I'd say it probably doesn't make my top 5 absurd allegations in this thread.
Interesting, they seem to be playing hard ball on the fee according to reports, if they're asking really asking £90m we should walk. If another club wants pay that let them. Take the risk and try get much cheaper next summer when he's in last 12 months of contract.
I doubt this. Looks like we are rightfully playing hardball. We hold all the cards and I don't mind taking this all the way to deadline or walking if they don't budge on the price. They'll be lucky to get €35m from Bayern next summer.
Dortmund in the CL, financially don't need to sell, owners been firm in saying Sancho isn't leaving. Leverkusen in the Europa League, financially worse off than Dortmund, sources always said Havertz would play out the Europa League but nothing else. Not as firm about price tag as Dortmund.
How are they not as firm? They havent moved an inch on their asking price?
According to multiple sources. We don't know how things go behind the scenes, all we can go off of is the sources. All sources for Dortmund regarding Sancho said they don't need to sell but would if €120m was bid, and now are saying they won't sell due to the deadline (remains to be seen if that's true). Thats it. For Havertz, it was never as firm as they only ever explicitly stated he would stay until the end of the eurola league, and sources then say they are in a worse financial position so are more likely to compromise on the fee, compared to Dortmund who have an all or nothing stance.
But you are only in pole position because of Covid. If he waits another year he has Madrid and Bayern waiting since thats what theyre asking him to do anyway.
He's got such a shit-eating grin. He'll fit right in at Chelsea.
Madrid have James and Bale to shift, plus the Bernabeau to pay for, doubt they'd be interested for big money. Bayern maybe, though they have a stacked squad, have Musiala to bring through .... and have just signed Sane.
I think €60 is too low for a player of his quality, age , position and attributes. €80m after easy add-ons would be fair IMO. We should walk if they want anything more than that and even if Havertz wouldn't mind waiting and choosing Real or Bayern over Chelsea next summer, Leverkusen know they won't get anywhere close to €80m then.
I mean we have been heavily linked with a bunch of players in various positions, not just Havertz. Romano has repeated told us Havertz and Chilwell are both priorities for Chelsea. Then the rumours linking players like Rice, Dunk, any keeper of your choosing (Oblak, Onana, Pope, Henderson etc). As I have understood it, once the Havertz and Chilwell deals are concluded, Chelsea would need to sell to add further players to the squad.
On paper we should have signed a CM of signing Hazard.
What have you heard? I've checked all the usual journos, no new updates from them.
In that comparison, we would then end up with Sancho. Hardly a disastrous consolation prize.
Doubt anyone really knows, unless Leverkusen cave and just accept our bid.
