Yeah, that’s fair enough I suppose. Ironically, despite my rant about Chelsea if you were a Chelsea fan you’d be foaming at the mouth being gazumped repeatedly by Barcelona, who are openly trying to shaft their own players like de Jong out of money, owe money all over Europe yet somehow aren’t under a transfer ban til they sort it out.
Borat ?
Yeah, I’ve went from really admiring Barcelona and loving watching them play to being repulsed by how they operate with what seems like impunity.
I honestly don't understand why the club's outside the scab six accepted the rule.
Well in fairness it’s a very different prospect not being good enough for Chelsea’s midfield when they’re about to throw £70m+ at Barca for de Jong just for the sake of it compared to us where we legitimately have not had a midfield in years.
I think they wouldn’t mind getting rid of him permanently regardless but look at it this way, if he goes back to Chelsea because they want him then he must’ve done an unreal job on loan, which is obviously good for us.
Agreed. It was probably argued the contracted schedule due to the World cup would mean players would burn out so they need more subs but it only benefits the scum six, again.
What I don't get is, obviously there's the name as a pull, but most players are all about the dollar and surely if they aren't paying the wages, it might put you off a bit?
They are like a gambling addict who has done their brains but instead of stopping borrows more, ups the stakes, carries on and doesn’t care who gets hurt. “OK OK we’re in trouble but if we just buy Lewandowski he will win us the Champions League and it’ll all be fine”. Hopefully La Liga or UEFA stand up to them because they need an intervention.
Agreed, would love him here, natural strong and good on the ball, last premier league season Scott Parker fell out with him so he didn’t play.
