I've seen worse go for more. If he goes, they'll get a good 20m minimum for him. Because it's Chelsea and that's what they do.

Colwill won't leave at all. He's got 5 years left on his contract.
Think the ship has sailed on getting a decent fee for Broja, had they brought him back halfway through the Southampton loan they could have gotten probably £30m for him but they've let him play and everyone see how shite he is now so not likely they will get anything like £20m. Winks was a proven quantity at PL level and former England international and went for £10m, I can't see a universe where someone forks out £20m on a striker who doesn't score.

Liverpool ended up selling Solanke for 19m and he had 1 Premier League goal to his name.

Some teams can be stupid or see some sort of potential somewhere.

Goes to show how shortsighted many fans are. They think that these types of things can happen overnight. Yeah, we haven't won a trophy in 15 years, but that's not because we were a lower midtable team that pinched pennies. We have been quite competitive for our size and could have had 2-3 trophies (including the big one) during this time. The reason we didn't is because of what happened on the pitch, not in the boardroom.

Moving forward I think we will operate similarly to how we have until now, which I think is right. The big difference will be that other clubs will not be able to operate the way they have until now. The difference maker will be who has the best recruiting on the managerial and player front, not who can spend the most, because pretty much the top 6 will have parity with regard to spending. So I am really hoping that this new football structure the club has set up is world class and is maintained at a world class level.
 
There’s no pressure at Brighton. He’s not that good and he’s a kid on bully on the pitch. He’s fake aggressive and constantly fouls. Not for me.
Fair enough. I'd have gone for him before VDV in the summer at LCB and it looks like we did OK with VDV.
More than OK. I wouldn't swap them now in any world.

Do rate him though and I'm glad Poch is sticking with the idea of playing him LB instead of using him as a 1 man press break that he can be at CB.
