Embarrassing.
Not that I believe the article, but it's pretty funny how these players value themselves. Imagine Alonso or Willian threatening the club they will leave.
Real Madrid in talks to sign Ferland Mendy.
Just ridiculous. We spend just as much money, yet can't ever get deals over the line. It isn't even June and Real have 3/4 signings lined up!
His technical ability is the main reason why Sarri didn't bother with him. Probably saw the amount of poor first touches in dangerous positions and just threw his fag, looked at Zola and said "ship him"
So Simon is saying we've appealed and will hear the results shortly before the final, whereas the article is stating we haven't even approached CAS yet.
Terrific.
This is a charity publicity stunt. You don't think Buck pressured Sarri to play his strongest XI? People came to see Chelsea's stars, not their youth products and loanees.
Sarri didn't want any of this, and it was blatantly obvious given how he reacted after RLC was subbed off.
