No.
Sad to see him go, but there has been a sense of inevitability about this since January. I hope we have a plan
Ok mate cheers for that.
I'll be surprised if he disney land in Paris soon.

Well that’s one way of looking at it.
The other is he knuckled down like a model pro and didn’t spit his dummy out, when Everton scuppered his transfer and the chance to win stuff.
Does the club ever have a plan?
Unless the plan is to buy players on deadline day?
Do we have a deal with Sky to do this or are we just unorganised?
Idrissa's imperious form contributed to our success in the last part of the previous season. He suddenly developed, in addition to his defensive abilities, better distribution skills. It flummoxed a lot of us blues watching. Where did this extra gear come from? I suspect he was playing for his move. Now I'm not saying he wasn't trying his absolute best previously. He's always struck me as an obvious grafter. However when a top team courts you it can only fill you with pride and confidence in your own abilities. Some players let it go to their heads and drop off that 1 or 2 % and it shows. For others it fuels them to improve even further on the pitch. I suspect he would've known that he would've had to continue to impress to push through his dream move. I mean if he'd played poorly maybe PSG would've reconsidered.
What concerns me is that how we replace that tremendous player we all saw during the latter part of last season. He was a behemoth and I wish we were not selling him, although if the deal collapsed maybe his form would to!

4 year deal for someone that turns 30 shortly?

Player Valuation: £25m
Cattermole is ours
I can't imagine Gueye would have even looked at a contract that was any shorter, and it's not like he is falling apart. He has loads of years left
Yeah players usually wanna ensure they are well paid till at least the 33-34 kinda age. And wont entertain contracts that won't give them that kind of security.
Defensive midfielders usually play well into their 30s though, he will be slightly less effective when the pace drops off a bit though. But his greatest asset is positioning himself to break up play
