The curious case of Courtois

[Stingray 9,441]

 

if he wants Barca, otta let him go for 20+ mil. We can't abonden Cech anytime soon.

 

What not though?

We are in a crucial time of our transition with Mourinho now appointed, and we must understand that Cech's influence this season's transition phase could be massive in that, but after the WC we should be seeing to get some profit off of him. After the WC, Courtois is more than ready to join us considering he has accomplished so much at a tender age. He's been performing way above standards and has the quality to easily be the BEST keeper in the world. He must be introduced after the world cup or the following season. An absolute Must

I agree fully. After the WC he needs to step up and compete.

Also, what if he returns after playing a brilliant WC ... Harsh, harsh competition on that no 1 spot.

I can't understand why some cannot accept selling Cech as a concept?

He's still at the top of his game and provides massive leadership and character. His influence will be critical this season specifically, but after that, I see no use for him when we have a hungry world class talent striving to play under us who needs to be introduced with our current crop of young talented players.

In all probability, we will lose him to Barca/big club next season. As soon as victor valdes' one year on his contract is over after this season they will go all out for Curtois and he will definitely not say no to them.

Chelsea needs to understand that any player needs stability. Being on loan year after year is not real stability, and by next season he will know he is top class and deserves to feel like a number one at the biggest clubs in the world.

Next year will be the moment of truth for Chelsea, just like united had with De Gea( even though that was after VDS retired). If we dont get him as a No. 1 keeper for next season 2014-15, then in all probablility we will lose him.

Cech is 31 years old now, I think he still has 9-10 years playing on the biggest stage.

If you don't mind me asking, where have you come up with the assumption that he might go to Barca or another club next season? A player of his caliber and professionalism is absolutely vital in our future transition. We currently have all the right elements to run properly with stability. A world class manager, brilliant youth set up, potential world class prospects on loan, and current young top talents integrating into the squad mixing in with experienced old guards.

Courtois is one of these elements for this club's future and our board has recognized this. Courtois is continuing to grow at Atletico, and win silverware as well as break records in beautiful fashion. IMO, i would place a hands off policy specifically on him, Chalobah, and Lukaku.

He isnt going to hang around for 2-3 years more being loaned out.

He is simply too good

I have personally never heard of any club buying a player, then loaning them out for 5-6 years in a row.

If we have big plans for him, they are not showing . He wont be offered the no. 1 position till Cech is gone.

he is already on his 3rd year being loaned at athletico.

Atletico

And I think this will be Cech's last year with us after the world cup where we can still make value off of him
