I'm still bemused at Wright-Phillips and Ferreira's respective price tags.

I suppose you really need to say it's Chelsea, Coventry City, Plymouth Argyle, Manchester United, Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur, Nottingham Forest, Charlton Athletic, Newcastle United if you really wanted to be picky.

spankyplugs · 23-03-2007, 00:32

Not necessarily picky, but not the 'hilarious' names.

ForestChav · 23-03-2007, 00:38

What's wrong with them? I do realise it's not funny, but it really is harmless.

Mark. · 23-03-2007, 00:42

Little point...the entire Dundee squad is made up of free agents, loans and youths.

That's because Dundee are rubbish.

Mark. · 23-03-2007, 08:55

They could easily beat Forest

This thread is about YOUR teams starting eleven, you are not a Chelsea fan, and the decent thing would have been to let a Chelsea fan do it, but of course certain people around here are obsessed with us to the point they cant resist bringing us up at every single opportunity.

Not much. Just a pet hate really.

Well the SPL is about the same level as the CCC (Rangers and Celtic barring), so the SD1 is about the same level as the English L1 so there's probably nothing in it. The fact that we're 3rd in our division and you're midtable... erm...

Mark. · 23-03-2007, 13:19

But being mid-table up here is still only 5th

Good god, have a day off will you, its factual information, people can read in to it what they will, I thought some United fans suffered from paranoia but it seems like you are about ten times worse. Its hardly going to have us all reeling in surprise that Chelsea have spent more than anyone else - after working out what we spent I was too intrigued to wait.

As for that bit in bold - well I am in absolute bulk. Who are you to become a self elected moderator telling me what I can and can't post? Are you only allowed to post about your own teams?

Do you think a thread like this is unlikely to involve someone interested in the Chelsea figure? I had worked out my own teams figure first, so if you don't like it then tough shit.

spankyplugs · 23-03-2007, 14:06

I suspected there may have been a few quid in it, but I couldn't find any confirmation other than 'Tabb signed'

Cech 9m

Boulahrouz 8.5m
Carvalho 20m
Terry YOUTH
Ashley Cole 15m (estimated value in trade with Gallas)

Wright Phillips 21m
Makelele 16.6m

Shevchenko 30m
Kalou 9m

Ferreira 13.2m
Ballack FREE

and if we add:

Except we're talking last starting XI, so why do those players matter?

omideyi · 23-03-2007, 15:15

why does any of this matter?

but to answer your question, the thread got me thinking about the total cost of Chelsea's squad, so I decided to investigate it a little further. do you have a problem with this?

EvolutionUK · 23-03-2007, 15:23

Ok if we are going to go off track then I want to discuss the underachievement of Spurs when considering the amount of money spent on their squad over the last few seasons.

I'd like to discuss this too

You know what? For once it would be good if we could have one thread that mentions Chelsea, but doesn't focus on Chelsea. Once again it seems like the thread is gradually drifiting towards the focus point being Chelsea. We've had posts on a number of teams, yet as usual people seem to focus on Chelsea.

It just gets damn annoying after a while.

Faxy Fowler · 23-03-2007, 15:59

Chelsea are the current champions of England. This is a football forum.

If anyone wants to discuss matters relating to Chelsea they are quite entitled to.

This mentioned Chelsea in the same vein as about 12 other teams until some idiot decided to take exception to Chelsea's inclusion.

I cannot understand why Chelsea fans are so bothered.
