Is Aaron Cresswell on his way to Chelsea for £20m

Post by Charnwood » Mon Apr 20, 2015 7:22 pm

According to the Daily Express West Ham are ready to accept a close season bid of £20m from Chelsea for full-back Aaron Cresswell, with him poised to replace Atletico Madrid-bound Filipe Luis.

I hope we have a sell on clause?

Apparently we have a very good sell on clause according someone on twtd. Whu did get him on the cheap. I hope Cressie does well if he gets that move.

If they sell him they will come in for Mings for sure.

Cressie worth 20Mill, while Tranmere are heading to the Conference. It's a crazy sport.

We've normally been quite good at getting decent sell on rates haven't we?

Good luck to the kid if it's true

He has surprised me with how he has coped in the BPL. WHY love him and when I have seen him his delivery is even better then when he was with us. I'm praying he goes, I guess the minimum sell on would be 10% with max 20%, either way a nice little pocket.

Welcome to the form, Aylesbury Blue. Hope this is the first of many posts, and that you get max enjoyment from it! It has the ability to get lively and passionate at times - just what supporting Town's all about.

Cressie has done outstandingly well at WHU, and fully deserve a crack at an even higher level. Anything we receive by way of sell-on funds will also be very welcome. Someone speculated whether Mings might be seen as a replacement - provided we negotiate a good price, and a further advantageous sell-on clause, then so be it. I think it inevitable that he will leave sooner rather than later.

Interestingly, prior to AC leaving I personally thought his performance levels had dipped a bit, for whatever reason. No doubt, however, that he has developed into a high-quality player, fully at ease at the higher level. Good luck to him!

Anyway on a serious note, glad you signed up at last. I remember both of us saying he wouldnt cut it in the Prem and would struggle, I guess he proved us wrong. I still believe that with another season under his belt Mings will prove to be equally as good as cressy.
