Thibaut Courtois

Di Marzio:

"According to some indiscretions however the clubs had already agreed on what to do regardless of UEFA’s ruling. Should Courtois play against them, Chelsea would no longer want to renew the player’s loan to Atletico for next season".

That from six hours ago btw, so maybe someone posted it already.

That's very interesting. Are any of us really surprised that UEFA change their minds and have 0 consistency though? Guarantee that if this was against Barca there's no way they'd do the same thing.

Having said that, wouldn't it be nice to let Thibaut play? For him if nothing else, he'll want to play, especially at the Bridge, to prove himself to any Chelsea fans that doubt him.

We are not on the wrong side if we enforce the clause we agreed on, but I want courtois to play if we sort out some type of deal for costa.

8 million dollars (4mil per match) is a lot of money to start being honourable about during FFP times (don't know why people are acting like we're the bad guys here, athletico knew what they were doing when they agreed for this).

I'm sure athletico will listen to offer to reduce possible deals for costa, that's what will benefit us in all this.

Well, well, well... this makes this whole clause issue interesting. This would also explain why our board insisted on putting such a clause in the contract. Does anyone know where one can find all UEFA statutes?

Does Chelsea really want to loan him another season to Atletico? Not sure what benefit they have in that. Unless they really want to sign Costa in which case it is leverage. Then they now have a second leverage by allowing Courtois to play or not.

Interesting, interesting ...

Agree however that these clauses should not be allowed by law. You loan a player = the player must not be disallowed to play against the team loaning him.

LOL at UEFA, breaking their own regulations just for the chance of screwing us :D If Atletico have the nerve to play our player against us, we should deny them a loan deal next year and they'll never see their precious keeper again.

And while I'm at it we should use Courtois' rising popularity, which should have a great effect on his price tag and cash in this summer. No more loans.

You guys are interpreting that UEFA message pretty colorfully. They clearly say that a loaned out player should always be able to play against his mother club and that any regulations made between the clubs don't matter to them. Also, the question about the Celtic player came after it was already decided he WOULD play. They didn't even have to make a stand.You can keep pulling the "everybody hates us" card, but that doesn't change what is written here. "If a player is duly registered on the player list of IF Elfsborg then he can play against any team that Elfsborg are drawn against."

Media is one that puts crap on us all the time and sheeps around the world follow that "truth". Everyone hates us, yet we are still 4th most popular club in the world.

Love it.

I dont care if Courtois plays or not, as long we win the tie.

what if he saves the deciding penalty in the 93rd minute? can you see our fans accepting him next season after denying us the chance of winning the Holy Grail of football?

Yes because it shows he is ready to give it his all to whoever he is currently playing for.
