LAM09 7,056 Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 It's going to be both. But, will probably be the case next summer as well.Lets hope not. There were plenty of options this summer, but the club decided to put all their eggs in one basket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhForAGreavsie 6,075 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 OK, I'm going to say it. If Thibaut leaves then we should get radical, reinvest the fee in other areas, and go with Marcin. From the first time I saw him in the youth team, the kid impressed me. It would be a bold move, to the point of near recklessness, but you win prizes when you get the big decisions right and I think this lad would justify the decision to back him. I'm not expecting it, but I'm hoping that he'll start today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAM09 7,056 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Jasper Cillessen wants out of barcelona He's a notable set down compared to Thibo. I honestly hope we go for someone that has potential to grow here such as Strakosha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamilton 2,120 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Courtois asked about the transfer soap today before the game Genk - Stvv. “It’s a delicate case, but we will see. I’m very calm about it” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZanSnake 1,211 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 He wants to leave yet took him till 3 days before window closing. Just an unloyal arsehole. xPetrCechx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamcfc 182 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Yea this is getting to me as well, if he wanted to go he should have put a transfer request early in the window. This shows a complete lack of respect to the club the way he has handled this, a year is a long time and he should be made to stay and rot on the bench. Alternatively we sell him and spend 30m on someone to fill the gap for a year or 2.. might as well lose 30m and teach him a lesson. I know it’s not my money lol it just irritates me that this clown thinks he’s better than the club who showed faith in him as a teenager, no respect what so ever. Even Luis Suarez signed a new contract with a clause to show his respect to Liverpool so they get what he’s worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,957 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 I have a strong temptation to bench him. We have no time to sign a proper back up and his arrogant claim 'They won't bench me.' drove me nuts. Just a shame our back up options are what they are.

Sir Mikel OBE 4,920 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 He's tried his hardest to screw us. Keep him on the bench this season. xPetrCechx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vytis33 1,271 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Fine you want to play for Real Madrid, ok. Be closer to your family, totally understandable. But I think Chelsea has been more than fair to him. Displaced a club legend to make him the #1. Two league titles plus an FA Cup in three years. If these reports are true he should've handled this much differently IMO. xPetrCechx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has wanted to leave for a while, he has one year left on his contract. This is a fact everyone at Chelsea knows.The fact we are holding a conversation with him 3 days before transfer deadline and have not lined up a replacement is Chelsea fault. This should have been taken care of a while ago. I find Chelsea completely at fault. I fear we are heading for the same direction with Eden Hazard next summer. Eden being much more valuable.

If he wanted to leave he is the first one to act by submitting a transfer request, he hasn’t done this in all these “years” he wanted to leave. Has he ever told the club he wanted to leave officially? Doubtful or we wouldn’t have Sarri saying he wants to talk to him face to face. He tried to be clever and play games, making stupid sly digs in the media etc. While he has a year left and there is no transfer request, we call the shots.

OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 If we made him the apparent £250k a week offer back in December he probably would of resigned. But we didn’t. As long as we get a decent fee and don’t sign a shite replacement it will be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eidur the Spider 4,515 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Exclusive: Courtois goes AWOL to try to force Chelsea exit. More on @TeleFootball #cfc Just get rid of this wanker. I cannot stand him. Let him go to Madrid and get booed for getting beaten at his near post. No respect at all. Starman60 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,914 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Man, if I were Roman I'd be super tempted to just sign a replacement and let this cunt rot on the bench for a year. BlueSunshine 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sainttourist 68 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Not a fan of him. But he made it clear, that he wants to leave long before. Club management is at fault for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
