Juan Mata

We can use the £40m to invest in a world class striker like Andy Johnson

or a world class diver like Young

Found a nice picture of the Chelsea board...

MU sold one of the best player in football history and replaced him with Valencia, still won 2 titles in the next 4 seasons. They annually lose their best players like Van Gol, Stam, Tevez, Beckham and still do well. WHY? BECAUSE THEY GOT ONE OF THE BEST MANAGER IN HISTORY, SO DO WE. That is why we as a club will survive, this sale means nothing. Arsenal sold RVP last season, now topping the table. Liverpool sold Torres, bought an even better player in Suarez.

KTBFFH, WE ARE CHELSEA, WE WILL GET THROUGH THIS AND WE WILL STILL MOVE FORWARD NON STOP.

I doubt they would win shit if they sold Ronaldo to us.

It not the problem in selling Mata, problem is in selling him to MANU.

[Cosmin 2,484]

If only we got Rooney, that would make some sense...but obviously we cant negotiate and do whatever they say...we are chelsea, the worst when comes to transfers...

People will laugh at us as hell if Mata becomes a hit in Manu. At least Mou will look like a fool for this ridiculous decision.

No, he won't. If we win the league and reach the semis, at least, in the UCL, Mata's departure becomes irrelevant.

Never sell to a rival

Although we disagree on this matter, I got to hand it to you that you can take everything with good humour, good on you.

[calculatingInfinity 1,462]

Fuck this

[BlueLyon 9,359]

What are you on about?

Well if we sell Mata to ManU, we only have to sell Luiz and Courtois to look like even bigger fools.

[Polo7 3,496]

I like how most people on here are saying "others will laugh at us when Mata plays well".

Who gives a shit what others think? I dont agree with the sale but it would be good to see us make a profit once in a fucking while.

[duo11bluecl 207]

No, he won't. If we win the league and reach the semis, at least, in the UCL, Mata's departure becomes irrelevant.

But he is gonna score the winner in the semi final if he has stayed

I doubt they would win shit if they sold Ronaldo to us.

It not the problem in selling Mata, problem is in selling him to MANU.

Fair point I suppose. From a business perspective this is actually a good deal for us, but yeah I agree from a supporter point of view it sucks

was that when they signed Torres or when they gave Matic away??

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

Replacement?!

Chelsea have talked to FC Basel for Mohamed Salah. Offer is €10M plus bonus. FC Basel asking price is €18M (via @dimarzio)

ours and Real madrid's are the only board I know who seem incapable of learning from its past mistake and consistently display lack of common sense and critical reasoning in its decision making.

Lol well this is slightly embarrassing.

[bushman 2,043]

I was talking about Martinez.

Sorry then. I must be all goo-goo over Juan, then. lol.

[chrismada9 1,948]

So let me get this straight..

• Buy back a player we offloaded as bait to sign David Luiz for £21 million. Buy back the same player for another £21 million.
• Sell our player of the year for 2 years running to one of our arch rivals without even putting a foot down.

I wonder what next... sell Courtois to Atletico for £5m and let Barcelona sign David Luiz..

It makes me sick to see United fans jizzing all over these Mata rumors.

seriously... SACK THE FUCKING BOARD!

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Lmao at this thread. It's like half the forum is PMSing

We're getting 40m pounds for a guy who has mostly sat on the bench this season and he's a great guy and great player who is getting the playing time he deserves. It's good for all parties involved. Just wish him the best of luck for he's done for the club and move on.

it's all banter and light humour, never hurt anyone.

[The Mak 4,459]

Sorry Juan, I still love you, but I hope those idiots use you on the wings and the only time you hear the CL music in a red shirt is on the T.V.

It'll be like watching your girlfriend getting nailed by your arch-nemesis and you can do sweet fuck all about it. So thanks for that Chelsea, you literally could've sold him anywhere else. You could've even used him as a bargaining chip in a Costa deal, but no. It'll be great seeing the stupid smiles on all of my United mates while they thank me for a top notch footballer.

What also pisses me off is that, if this whole thing is really just because of FFP, the thought of that Goldilocks sack of shit sitting in our treatment room who has contributed FUCK ALL compared to Mata and is somehow still at this club and on £180k a fucking week.

There'll be a serious shitstorm if we don't get a massive signing either in this transfer window, the next or we end up not having enough AM cover for the rest of the season. And I've a sick feeling about this whole thing and that it's only inevitable before:
