He's speaking to the press at 1.
The fee in terms of these other stupid amounts, like 35m for Carroll is low. But in terms of "normal" fees it's not too far off the mark.
We can get 2 or 3 quality players with that money alone.
I think his hamstrings are fucked anyway.
Yes it does.
All the barca comments about how he is worth only £25m or less, etc, was all bullshit. They knew full well he was worth in excess of £60m and the buy out clause they have sapped on him for double that amount proves it.
£35m we got for someone who is suddenly know worth £130m?
nope. it has everything to do with ensuring they do not have to go through this sort of saga again where they lost a young player and had to pay to get him back. exactly the reason they set out clauses in the contract of the player that just joined chelsea.
it's an arbitrary figure.
Sods law says he will fail his medical cos of his dodgy hammys and the deal is off!
