    Chelsea does it, everybody complains. The rest of league copies, crickets.

    For everyone saying the long contract is a bad thing. Just a quick thought

    Is a longer 6/7 year contract the same for a club like Chelsea, who generally sign players on massive wages and huge transfer fees (£70-90Million), so we know why they’re doing it, you spend 1 Billion but end up with multiple, or in their team basically an entire 24 man squad. What does this mean, well it means a few things but for the most part it puts off bids from other teams, and means if the player doesn’t play well, you have to pay him for the contract unless you take a massive loss.

    This is bad for Chelsea.

    Max is still relatively young (27) and so should be going into his prime and has a strong premier league experience, west ham don’t have a squad full of 100mill 19 year olds on 8 year contracts and if max kilman does well there, and helps west ham get back into Europe, it puts other top clubs off bids (they did the same with Bowen who was linked with Newcastle and Liverpool over the last 18 months)

    West ham wants to keep their best players and are trying to play it smart. That’s not what Chelsea are doing.

    This is a player that Lopetegui worked with before which means he trusts the player a lot. Getting a Pl proven defender who’s (presumably) picked by the coach for £40m isn’t a bad deal at all. I think this is a good deal for all parties involved.
