The people on the Chelsea subreddit are laughing at us. We’ve managed to turn ourselves into the club that appears desperate to make this happen.
It’s disappointing because I wouldn’t want to help Chelsea restart their season.
I understand that it’s hard to move players outside of the league like we used to because of money. But what I don’t understand is why the club would be willing to help a direct rival rather than offer Dortmund more money.
Someone posted a graphic on Twitter showing that if the deal for Giroud goes through along with the deal for PEA the club would have 0 net spend. I’m not usually one for conspiracy theories but…I can think of one mustache sporting Trump supporting fucker who would love that.
You are telling me, That Giroud loves London so much he can’t bear to be gone for 13 odd weeks?
I know he’s a dad and all but Arsenal can fly his family out on a private jet every week if he wants…
Its the wife. He’s had his head turned before and she doesn’t want to lose him to some 6 foot tall fair haired german model on the hunt … That has got to be it. Nothing else makes sense.
Giroud is 30 and isn’t that great to sell him for more money, maybe to a chinese club like jackson martinez but a top club won’t pay a larger fee for Oli.
would really miss Oli if he left but if it means us signing Aubameyang then it’s a good thing, it would be really strange and hurt seeing him in a Chelsea kit (probably more then Sanchez) but just because Giroud is way more likeable as a person, and has a much better connection with the fans.
doubt it would happen but I hope they offer us Fabregas in return but I can see it being Luiz
It can quite easily happen if Giroud doesn’t want to go to any of the clubs that can make Auba happen or if Chelsea end up getting someone else and then fuck us by keeping Batshuayi.
I can see the Auba deal falling through now, it’s been left too late in the window for Dortmund to find a replacement and there’s too many moving parts.
