| Villa paying £65M for Jackson? 21:43 - Aug 26 with 2072 views | MK1 | How the hell is he worth £65M? If we want a decent CF, he is going to cost serious ££££££'s. Aston Villa are close to an agreement to sign striker Nicolas Jackson from Chelsea in a deal worth up to £65m. (From the BBC) |  |

In the case of them and Villa, via close to fraudulent means I would suggest. |  | |  |

Oh, I agree. £50M for Delap is crazy money. I thought they would have to take a loss on him. Jackson is worth £40M max. |  |

There is no way in this world or the next that Delap has done anything over the last year to warrant a £20m profit. That being said, we're reputedly valuing Mehmeti at £9m |  |

I think anyone who mentions the £20M profit that Chelsea might well make on Delap are looking at it wrongly. Due to the relegation release clause in his contract, the fee Chelsea paid us for Liam Delap was artificially cheap. No clause, and he would’ve gone for £50M minimum. The fee Forest are reported to have agreed with Chelsea, through a tad excessive is still almost bang on the money in today’s market. [Post edited 27 Aug 7:31]

What they paid at the time was a low buyout clause though, we all know we got shafted on Delap. So it's not necessarily that he's gone up by £20m. We did just pay £24m for a basically unproven Emersonn. |  | |  |

Delap got 12 goals in a side which was at the wrong end of the table all season. He’s a proven goal scorer at this level, although Chelsea have done their best to drill that out of him. |  | |  |

We got Mehmeti cheaply as he was in the last few months of his contract. £9m is a fair price I would say |  | |  |
