Is it just me that feels that the Souttar saga will drag on to the last day of the window, when he will leave but it will be too late to buy in quality recruits? Or is that being cynical? I really hope I'm wrong. The Sarkic news also gives the impression that Iverson is also off the agenda in any discussion that may or may not be taking place.

Anyone seen that Sarkic in action? Heard he wasn't great against Liverpool but don't know what he was like at Birmingham.

Oof! I hold grudges but it was only their ground lol 😃😁 Aah but it was one of their ground workers in a white coat too, not Arsenals fault. Totally justified! Bastards! 😡😤

Why are wolves letting him go but signing Bentley? Assume Bentley must be the better keeper? They must want him have regular football

To circumnavigate FFP, the American owners of Chelsea spotted an accounting loophole which allows you to spread the transfer fee over the length of the contract. So for example, as Chelsea have just done, you sign a player for £80 million you an spread the cost over the length of the contract, in this case 8 years. So for accounting and FFP purposes the cost is £10 million per year. Now here’s the rub. Under current FIFA rules the maximum contract period is 5 years. So to get round this, players sign a 5 year contract with the OPTION of (in this case) a further 3 years. After the horse has bolted FIFA are closing this loophole at the end of this season, but in the meantime Chelsea and others are expected to make a number of similarly structured deals before the end of this transfer window. So basically they’re taking advantage of a loophole and cheating to gain an advantage because the rules weren’t correctly worded. If there’s a club that really leaves a foul taste in the mouth it’s definately Chelsea. They really did get away lightly with using the blood money that funded their success. 💯 agree. But where were our clever people so we could have exploited the loophole? Had the potential to save the club millions 🙄

Looks like Millwall have moved on from Lyndon Dykes and are signing another striker

Not sure what his availability would be but Wolves back up keeper Matija Sarkic would be a good shout. Blues fans really rated him after having him on loan last season. 1st Jan I'd mentioned Sarkic being on my wishlist to fill the keeper spot, very happy if we get him, possibly better than Bentley himself IMHO. If anyone went to the U23's Play Off Final match v Wolves at Molineux, he played against us that game. Although in fairness sadly he never had a great deal to do that match 🙄..

See, you have to stop shots to develop and increase in value, not depreciate unlike Josef. Novel concept I know for alot of Stoke fans. Sarkic actually does that and more as his value and promise has only increased in the last few years.

To be honest, no disrespect to Bonham but he was signed as back up/2nd/3rd choice and it’s shows as no1. So pleased we’re in for an upgrade

So pleased we’re in for an upgrade It's not intended to be a dig at Bonham who has actually done better than I had imagined unlike others, that said, he's nowhere near as promising or experienced as Sarkic coming in who has shown alot of praise at a PL club.

If we had done it, Imbula, Wimmer and Berahino would have had 7 year contracts and we would now be in Leagie 2. It’s a huge gamble by Chelsea

Good job no one listened to some on here and chucked Souttar in the bin at the same age. There were plenty of experts who thought he was shite.
