Just pay it man. This club... didn’t hesitate to spend £35m on Drinkwater? So silly.

Can't for the life of me understand how how napoli can demand any money when they've effectively sacked the manager by hiring his replacement already? Bizarre 

[Ledg 640]

Because Sarri's not sacked. He's still their employer.

The haven't really sacked him though. His contract is still up and running until the club terminates it. They know Chelsea are desperate so they're gonna hold out. They have 2 suitors in Zenit and Chelsea. If Chelsea don't pay it, he'll probably be off to Zenit who are ready to pay the clause. 

 

That's a pretty strong position for Napoli.

Exactly.

If somebody was interested in Conte, like how we are interested in Sarri, we could've been in Napoli's position, but we are not.

It sucks but the board needs to decide what to do, because we need to sort out the DOF and start on transfers as soon as possible. It's not like we're having a very long summer to do so.

If Barca made Messi available for £10m our board would go in with offers of £6m, £7m, and £8m until Barca walked away from the table. 

Haggling over €8m, ffs. Roman probably has that in his jewelry box.

You cant make this stuff up, can you? Feck sake. We haggling over 1/10 of a Drinkwater

Any one got any idea's on why conte hasn't been sacked yet? Could he actually stay? 

Have a feeling this is being dragged out to suit the fiscal calendar's agenda. June 1st is when I expect to know what is actually happening

Rumors on twitter and other Chelsea forums saying we also looking at Mick McCarthy. 

Apparently been seen meeting with Bruce last week.

He's not fit to lace Kante's boots but he's hardly much worse (if atall) than a player who could be the captain of the CL winners in just over 48 hours. The point i was trying to make is we have enough players who can be trained the "Sarri way" at least as squad players and like Henderson, Drinky has the workrate and an acceptable level of technique to play some part under Sarri, certainly before Baka.

both need to be gone for Sarri's system to be realized. H2o is just as incompetent as Bakayoko.

~Wait until Friday when his release clause expires, Sarri resigns and gives up his pay off of 1.2m euros or whatever he is on per year (has one year left or 2), we pay him that back and appoint him.

 

Win win

I think this is it.  ADL is probably negotiating, and we're saying take this, or nothing next week.

I was going to say that we probably have a policy about managers over 60, and have only now realised his age.

Jokanovic is a silly and lazy term now, he got Fulham up yesterday. Sarri will be our coach by the end of next week.

And then we will say "by the end of next week" and it will continue for weeks

Just pay it, FFS.
