Chelsea sign Jamie Gittens from Borussia Dortmund for £48.5m and further £3.5m in add-ons, seven year contract

i don't think i've heard of that length of contract since the Jim Mclean days at Tannadice


where the heck is Chelsea getting the money for all these transfers they've done
Erling Haaland signed a contract earlier this year that keeps him at City until 2034.

Not saying you’re wrong, but is it anything specific about these signings from Luton and Peterborough that everybody should be particularly afraid of?

The Huns are very good at building hype and folk have a quite incredible propensity to buy into it.

Personally think whilst being solid signings they don’t make them anything special. Thelo Aasgaard is decent but these signings are championship level players. Unless they build a team and play as a unit and the supporters give them time rangers will be hitting the repeat button next season based on early dealings imo.

Agree with this - none of the signings they've made make me think they'll be any better than they were last season.

Chelsea seem to be a law unto themselves…

They also sold their woman’s team to a subsidiary for £200m to get round PSR rules.

this is the bit that I think is the most important. there does seem to be some quality there (arrons I think will stand out in this league) but it depends how they adapt to the pressure cooker that is playing for the old firm. interesting that the Celtic fullback Johnston spoke about how hard he found it to settle in and cope with the pressure. look at Man Utd - signing quality players does not give any guarantees! will Martin himself cope? his previous experience at Southampton and Swansea could hardly be described as intense.

same, if not more so goes for hearts. plucking numerous players out of obscurity, putting them on good wages...suddenly finding themselves in a totally different football context...for me reminds me of errors we've made with players who looked like they had all the potential to make it but ultimately fell short.

I'm much happier with the stability we have, the ethos and culture we have than something based on analytics. for me, McInnes is too old school and although experienced I'm not sure how well he himself will cope if things there go tits up.

I'm also wondering how many of our own younger players will get a chance this year. we seem to have a few with real potential - could this be the year the likes of Jacob McIntyre, Dean Cleland and Jimenez break through? get triantis and a striker in and I think we have the depth we need to give it a real good go this year.

Embarrassing af.

I saw a program on Sky where one of their directors was being interviewed. He said their strategy is to pay comparatively less wages on a weekly basis but offer long-term contracts to players for stability.
It also ensures that less players will leave for free during the peak years of their career.

Birmingham announce the signing of Kyōgo Furuhashi

Wow, his career has really gone off the rails since leaving Celtic. A guy that was being linked with Spurs is how playing for a team that has just been promoted from League 1.

A possible lesson for Triantis there, the grass is not always greener.

Hope Miller points this out to Nectar in one of his pestering calls:wink:, keep the pressure up Milsey.
