Acting like an idiot again. Atletico need to get this deal done ASAP, so he's no longer our problem.

Mate I gotta feeling A.Madrid are going to give us the run around with the transfer fee for Costa 

[ChelseaFanUK 1,014]

love him, but he needs to go now.  That video can be interpreted two ways, give Conte a hug to reconcile and the Atletico top is just coincidence, no malice behind it

 

or, far more likely, give Conte a hug was him being sarcastic and the Atletico top was intended to piss Conte and/or the board off.  I'd go with this version

 

 

Inclined to think he has more or less signed for them and will be confirmed once we sign his replacement

No doubt. The big bucks have long gone, so we'll have to try and meet in the middle to get rid. £25-30m would be wonderful right now.

Listen, I would do this - let him go to Atletico on the cheap, even 20M maybe and ask Atletico for the 1st option on Griezmann. Not a swap + money deal, not a discount, just the 1st option to a future sale. 

Kante, Bakayoko, Hazard, Aubameyang, Grizmann - basically the front five - all French speakers haha.

First refusal clause is absolutely useless, good for tabloid nonsense stories but in reality very impractical. In fact i can't recall an instance where it was used.

If Griezmann prefers another club rather than coming to Chelsea that clause becomes obsolete. There is no way a transfer happens without the player consent. Second if another club bids higher than Chelsea. Atletico are going to sell to them, again the clause becomes useless. You don't need that clause to buy Griezmann ,if we bid the highest and player wants to come to Chelsea than they will sell to us. This clause maybe helpful between two rival clubs, instances where two clubs do not like selling player to each other. Real Madrid and Barcelona, and other domestic rivals.

He is so unprofessional it's almost embarrassing to watch. 

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

At least it is over now. Time to seek his replacement.

Strange thing is I'm glad because (hopefully) this is confirmation that we're getting rid of him. Genuinely won't miss him, even if we don't get a world class replacement. Such a strange Chelsea career / player.

[Special Juan 27,429]

He does what he wants, not on Conte's watch though, off ya go son, someone else's problem now.

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

 

Idiot.

[manpe 10,861]

The lack of respect he shows towards Chelsea is astonishing.

[zekinjo 449]

What a cancer that guy is.

[Special Juan 27,429]

Acted like a petulant child in January, saw the money signs and was quite happy to put his own interests ahead of the team winning a title, that says everything about him. If true regarding the Conte text that was wrong but maybe he's used the old saying "Do onto others as others do on to you" The quicker he's out the better.

[yipo 56]

can we fine his salary and put him on u21 . sick of this 

[Special Juan 27,429]

Don't want him anywhere near the club, leave him in Brazil.

[Milan 17,853]

His team mates are sweating blood in the pre-season training sessions and this fella is dishonouring the club, telling Cesc to give Conte a hug. Disgraceful acting. Can't wait to see him out of this club.

[Kieran. 6,317]

It's not that big of a deal honestly lol, thanks Diego for a record of 1.5 goals every two games in the PL and 3 trophies. Good luck pal!

 

I'll miss his big character but there's obviously things I won't miss about having him in the club. Entertaining person and player all around though.
