José1893 89 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 So happy about Luiz' departure for the sum. Mata, de Bruyne and Luiz sold for a huge amount of money, well done José! Just feck those annoying foreign/ african facebook fans who cry about every news from Chelsea and want Mourinho out and Benitez in (wtf!?) or Mata back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is more expected part of the game for me i guess that players come and go..obviously miss the likes of Carvalho,Ballack,Zola,Makalele etc..but don't get gutted over them leaving..i'm gutted Torres ever joined.. zolayes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdrcfc 461 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Just woke up to see the transfer has been agreed, more than happy to see the price nearer to 50 than 40 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duppy Conqueror 1,539 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 No, I understand completely..However, more fans = more money (to a degree)...Also, the useless preseason tours equals more money for Chelsea FC and gives them exposure to fans across the united states= more money..Selling Luiz to reinvest, I completely understand with. That is exactly why i brought up those pre-season tours..just another way of making money to then spend on improving team..just like selling Luiz is. It's what every club has to do to gain and maintain success..especially with FFP. We are a few steps ahead of the likes of Man city and PSG because of us getting wiser to how to strengthen and still abide to FFP rules.

I would not be sad if Roman left . Duppy Conqueror 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Class players are more important than money. So we have to make sure that we sign some gems with class and personality and not waste it on average fair-weather players like paulinho. We got more than enough money to get whoever we want and still comply with FFP. I respect fans who say, their loyalty belongs to the club, but I also identify with players, characters who have carried the club and whose loyalty can't be replaced by money, I'd rather be in debts and excluded from the CL but with some legends you can look up to than being a filthy rich club without soul which wanks about its transfer revenues but can't get a decent team together with players which don't have character to earn the success.

sdrcfc 461 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 We'll still love you David, and we're still able to support you as you aren't at a rival club. Hope this won't cause any problems for Brazil at the WC for the Chelsea camp. zolayes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Für mich sehr wichtig, dass man ihn für ordentlich Bares losgeworden ist! Persönlichkeit ist eine Sache, ein Martinez hat z.B. nicht das Charisma oder die Persönlichkeit eines Luiz, aber dafür ist er ein unabdingbarer Baustein für Bayern. Leistung steht über allem!

Beepu 1,714 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Wow I just woke up to this news. I feel sad actually, he is such a likeable person and will be missed. But the fee is just insane, I couldn't believe PSG splashed that amount when they had trouble with FFP. I sure hope we spend that money on a world class midfielder, not paulinho! If it's paulinho, there will be riots.And I find it ridiculous that players that bring so much excitement to fans like Mata, De Bruyne and Luiz were sold first before the terror known as Fernando.

Steve 10,227 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 From Davids Facebook page:Thanks Chelsea for the three and half years of great partnership.I've made good friends, won many titles and those memories will last with me for ever.I'd like to thank my team mates, all staff and all supporters (my geezers).I'm leaving with great sadness but at the same time excited for the new challenge that lies ahead in this great club in a city that have always enchanted me.It's a new stage, new challenge and together we will go even further.Allez Paris!

I'd also ratify the sale of Luiz for that crazy amount as he is not worldclas in any position. Maybe I am too romantic about this, but I believe their passion for the club and their strength of character ultimately contributed as much to the succes Cech-Terry-Lamps-Drogba axis brought to the club. Those traits can't be replaced by money but if we have to, we should use it to get new worldclass players and not sit on our money to be rich for the sake of it.

Korea 734 Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 I'm really interested to see if the same people that are celebrating Luiz transfer are the same folks that bash Mourinho during the Mata transfer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
