"It is true that the negotiations with Chelsea are at a standstill," Giesse admitted to Calciomercato.it."Now we are ready to listen to other offers from other teams, but for now no one has called me from Milan or Italy in general."

If he loves the club as much as he says he does then he will accept that he wont get a pay rise and stay with us.

I LOL'ed. Astouding naivete, Kez.

I really want Joe to stay, if I was him, and I loved Chelsea as much as he says he does, just accept what they are offering, get on the pitch and prove you deserve another 'improved' contract next summer.

If his agent knows Joe can get a better deal elsewhere than what we're offering him, he'll be off like a bird.

I hope he proves you wrong.

I hope he proves you wrong.

I hope so, too. Then again, if he does sign, it will be because he can't find a better deal anywhere else IMO.

No it's not because I know it's not going to happen.

More than likely if someone offers him more money he will be off simple as.

City to offer him a crazy £180,000 a week wages

I could see him leaving this summer.

Joe Cole is edging closer to the Chelsea exit door.

The Daily Express says Cole’s position at Chelsea is growing more tenuous by the day. England midfielder Cole, who has had a miserable season, wants to be in the same wage bracket as Michael Ballack and Michael Essien on about £120,000 a week, but Chelsea are refusing to budge on their offer of £100,000.

If things cannot be resolved, the FA Cup final against Portsmouth at Wembley on May 15 could be the last game in a Chelsea shirt for Cole.

Liverpool and Manchester City have been linked with moves for Cole, 28, who will be out of contract in June, as have his old club West Ham, Everton and Tottenham.

See yeah Joey.

Hello Stoch and Kakuta.

See ya "english homegrown player"

hello "two more foreigners"

(of course Stock and Kakuta are two quality youngsters but I'm more concerned about the number of homegrown players now that this new system is set to come into force)

[neel 257]

both kakuta and stoch should be qualified as homegrown player

[Term-X 7,891]

both kakuta and stoch should be qualified as homegrown player

true, although it's good to have english players in the team.

but those wages he wants are ridiculous considering j.cole is no longer a first team player.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Joe's not willing to accept £100,000 a week? If that's the case he can go! I love him, but what has he done to earn £120,000 a week? He's been constantly injured and the mere concept of form doesn't seem applicable to him anymore.
