Hafnia Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 I'd say we have a reputation for developing good young players and contesting towards the top of the league bar the top 4 - we're very likeable. Chelsea have a reputation for spending big and winning things as a result - not as likeable maybe but a hell of a lot more successful in the modern game. You can work with someone who gets a job done but they behave like an absolute prick. That's Chelsea. Football has gone to the dogs, it really has.

Hafnia Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 I am frustrated that Stones signed a 5 year deal worth 33 grand a week. Looking at Chelsea's payroll they pay Cahill 112 grand a week. Terry gets 80 odd... Everton will do the deal once Stones asked to leave to save paying him his contract and I expect this to happen... 3-4x's his current salary is tough to pass up especially since there appears to be certainty at his position after the upcoming season providing Terry stays in form... could be sooner if Terry struggles early... careers are short... If I'm Martinez I'd be looking for his replacement... and while we are at it sell Chelsea Baines also for 25-30 mil... we will survive without them... We will finish 8-15 but good enough... Our infrastructure does not allow us to compete... Until we can compete with payroll this scenario will continue time and time again... Would the next Billionaire please stand up and take this club to where it should have gone long ago!!! We pay Rom £75k a week. There is scope to reward him.

Oztoffee Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 Haf saidFootball has gone to the dogs, it really has. In it for the money only....no sense of respect for the other teams....no sense of tradition.....no sense of honesty or loyalty. Just to show you what's going on in OZ...the shite have been here and played to packed houses. I guarantee less than .5% of those attending have been a 'fan' for over 10 years. Right now, Citeh, Roma, Inter and Real Madrid are here in the International Champions' Cup. The same 'fan' thing as above applies to Citeh. The others have a good fanbase here as there are hundreds of thousands of Italian immigrants here who also appreciate what Real have been and still are. True supporters. Not your 'Johnny come lately I'll support them because they always win' shitheads. Sounds like I'm green with envy....nah, just pissed off because the game I love has gone down the shitter!

milesey05 Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 John Terry is on a basic wage of £150k a week. 100K of that goes to his team mate's wives/girlfriends. Hush hush money ;-) Lowensda, Quinn31 and chicagoblue 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 If. And it's a big IF. If John does leave us, we get £40m+, plus a player of sorts, I wouldn't mind us going for that Dragovic who played against us for Kiev. He was a monster. Good in the air, played the ball well, composed. He'd cost £15m but he's Austria's captain and still pretty young. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 The whole big club small club thing pisses me right off. Here's a question.... Abramovich pulls his millions or whatever. How many of the supposed world wide support will still buy Chelsea shirts? How many of their 40k fans will turn up at Stamford bridge??? The answer is quite clear, very few. Everton like Liverpool, like Man United, Man city, villa, spurs have lots of loyal territory support. That is a big club. The whole global thing is just a money spinner and they are their whilst thhey are doing well. That is all.

StevO Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 I've said before, we shouldn't sell anyway, but he has to go for more than Stirling. For me, if he does go I want Zouma in return. Matt and Lowensda 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea are a going concern, the russian pulls his money and there will be a line of other billionaires who want to buy it, the whole "global thing" is the whole thing, the BPL is way bigger than England now.

NYBlue Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 So just out of interest and to see what the response would be I sent an email to the FA regarding Chelsea and their pursuit of Stones. The response was "It is not appropriate for us to comment on this but should any club make a complaint to us about such an issue then we would investigate." Aside from the cop out that is their response I guess the question is why the club hasn't made a complaint to the FA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duncanmckenzieismagic Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 in some degrees yes, overall no. Do you think man city and Chelsea are bigger than Liverpool? Because they are richer? The Shite are still a global enterprise and they can still afford to compete with them financially so its a completely different scenario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
