DavidEU 2,023 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Sure he will earn less here.Sergi Dominguez or Di Marzio said that hes turned down offers from Qatar and China (I think its them 2) on higher money but Jose has offered him a player-then-coach deal here, which he prefers. Fuck knows how true that could be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 He's been a free agent for a while now so I wonder why it's taking so longProbably enjoying the magnum of champagne José sent him for helping us (potentially) sign Luis and Costa.

termninja 5,290 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I would love him here to provide some depth on our midfield position. He has a good season under his belt and is certainly an upgrade from Mikel. Look at the Eto'o transfer last season. He was physically in worse shape then Thiago yet he has done well for us. As a short term squad player for free he would be a great deal. Especially until we check Van Ginkel and Romeu.I can't escape a feeling we will be playing 4-3-3 next season because of Fabregas which means we only -have 3 regular midfielders in Matic, Ramires and Fabregas. That's absolutely not enough. I'm omitting VanG and Romeu since I'm not sure what will Mourinho do with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 RTVE, another reputable outlet in Spain, confirms that he will join Chelsea on a two-year contract.http://www.rtve.es/deportes/20140716/atletico-reestructuracion-campeon-futuro-incierto/974981.shtmlOtro viejo conocido de la Premier acabará su carrera vistiendo la camiseta del Chelsea. Tiago decidió regresar al club de Roman Abramóvich tras conquistar la Liga con el Atlético, por lo que cuatro jugadores titulares del once del 'Cholo' se pasan al 'enemigo'.

It allows you to "play" with the words. They used "enemigo" because of the relation between Jose and Atleti - the rojiblancos (the fans) despise him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky 739 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 So why haven't we signed him yet ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll probably announce Tiago next month to satisfy the FM and FIFA players who demand a new transfer every other day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we still have plenty of money too. Im sure we will bring at least one more player, maybe not 60m one but definately someone who will play part in next season.

I think he is serious in saying "okay, no more big signings". Maybe Tiago and another young player, perhaps in the Salah mould, as a squad player? I can't see any more marquee signings. We've been spoilt this summer in having THREE arrive in one window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I'm listening to Al primer toque on Onda Cero and they just said that Tiago can't sign with Chelsea and Jorge Mendes offered him to Valencia.They said why Chelsea can't sign him, but I didn't understand what they were saying. Something about his contract, I don't know. Waiting for someone to pick up on this story and see what's all about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame because I'd have loved to see him here. Ex-player, lots of experience, more depth, good passer, camaraderie with the other Atletico guys and can play in the holding role next to Matic if Fabregas is playing as a number 10.

Would have been a great squad player.I'm reading an article from Cadena Ser where they say that this transfer can't go through because of Chelsea, not because of Tiago's contract or something else. This "licensing issue" is Chelsea's problem it seems.Sin embargo, un problema de licencias del club londinense le impedirá (a Tiago) jugar en Stamford Bridge y su agente, Jorge Mendes le ha ofrecido al presidente del Valencia, Amadeo Salvo la posiblidad de firmar a Tiago con la carta de libertad.
