André Schürrle

[Barbara 15,149]

I'm no FFP expert but don't we still have enough money gained from our previous transfer sales to actually buy Cuadrado (+ ship Salah to Fiorentina) and still keep Schurrle?

and who gives a fuck about it? City, PSG, Barcelona all proving that FFP is there just for pretense. Also we've been doing great, I'm sure we can afford some expense and still be okay. Nothing scandalous, but some spending.

I don't think we won't have any other revenue and stuff that won't allow us to get Cuadrado... we're allowed to spend a bit more than we earn according to FFP anyway... also we don't know when the new sponsorship for the shirt will be announced and the first part paid...

According to that FFP guy from twitter, Jake Cohen, we can buy Cuadrado without selling Schurrle and Salah.

and that's your final answer...

If he hasn't signed fuck all with Wolfsburg yet he could be in squad. I mean numbers will be light, Salah probably won't get a spot on bench, Fabregas, Costa, Mikel is still a doubt. Not the game for youth so if Schurrle can play one last game before leaving, or at least make the bench, do it.

I do suspect though if he is on the bench, he'll not come on as to risk injury and medical failing

And/or it could be because of this...

Ooooh.

I didn't mean us (the give a fuck part), but the clubs. Everyone is shitting all over those FFP rules except us and a few others.

Maybe it's time we start doing the same as the consequences are hardly harming.

If we do that, we would probably won't get punished by the UEFA but FA instead. They'll send us to the Championship and take away the PL titles from us...

Very easily lol, we're still very well off financially you know, even if the club are being pragmatic with our transfer dealings.

F*CK PRAGMATISM!!

Allofs yesterday said that there isnt an agreement with chelsea yeat. thats probably the reason why he is in the squad. Still think this deal will go through until Monday. Allofs confirmed that they agreed a deal with Andre and he wants to leave and Mou wont keep somebody who wants to leave.

Even though I am Chelsea fan first I still want the best for Schurrle, his best position is covered by our best player and he is too good of a player to play once or twice a month. He is going to do well at Wolfsberg and we get enough money to cover JC transfer.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

So there is no team news announced yet, but we know Schurrle will be on the bench? How come..

[We Hate Scouse 10,286]

???

We'll see.

As expected no Schurrle..

[TheOneChan95 225]

Isn't on the bench at all today. Guess he's off then

Delete - wrong thread

[LDN Blue 7,903]

For all that was said about our 'weak' bench today - Schurrle is still a Chelsea player, isn't he?

Could've been of use.

Had the same thought but one might argue that we didn't want to risk having the deal with Wolfsburg fall through if Schurrle suddenly picks up an injury.

We are still playing hardball and they still don't want to pay that 1-2 million. Somebody would eventually crack and give in..

[didierforever 7,349]

we definitely will be the first to blink. i mean it would be stupid to jeapordise our PL chances for a couple of millions.

SCENES.

He's staying.

The official club calendar says so.

Shit pic, yes, as it's not mine.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

I think he will be gone for sure. If there is a slight chance he will stay, he should be involved at least on the bench yesterday.
