Douglas Luiz - coming back?

[john e]

Unless Iling Junior is a future superstar AND McKennie is better than adequate, this is a terrible deal forced upon us.

Dougie is a massive loss.

I'm increasingly thinking it wasn't forced upon us, he wants a change.

So say Arsenal come in with an offer for Watkins and he says he wants to go, we just let him go because it’s been forced on us do we and like many on here have said there’s no point keeping players that don’t want to stay

I actually agree I don’t think it’s worth keeping players who want to go but it would be interesting to see people’s different takes depending on the player

[pablo_picasso]

I imagine that would depend entirely on the contract situation John...

The poor deal is forced on us.  If it wasn't for PSR, we could sell him for his proper worth in the new accounting period.

So it was forced upon us? Or wasn’t?

It was probably more likely forced on us because we currently can’t afford to keep a player until the end of their contract and let them go for free because of our PSR situation. Plus Dougie apparently not prepared to sign a new contract.

Just confused what edgy meant, as he appears to say both.

I took it to mean he wasn’t forced upon us from a financial point of view, but from a Dougie wanting to fuck off point of view.

Has Chiesa got over his injury problems? He was amazing at Euro 2021. Would have loved him if he had been gettable and fit.

I only watched him in the last Euro qualifier (I think?) against Ukraine and he looked amazing. Like a one man team.

So it was forced upon us, but by Dougie.

So how does this deal work for our FFP/PSR? Are you we able to class it as the full value of Doug even though players are being exchanged, or is it just £20m?

Total value of everything incoming, including players.

[ChicagoLion]

I think we will justify a 70 m valuation for Luiz.
20+30+20cash.

Yeah I’d say that’s about right. Explains why we’d do a part ex I suppose.
