LDN Blue 7,903 Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 BAD NEWS.The future of French starlet Kakuta does not seem as cut and dried.Chelsea signed the 19-year-old amidst much controversy in 2007, only for the forward to sustain a broken ankle.He was subsequently banned by Fifa for four months for breaching his contract with French club Lille in order to sign with Chelsea.Chelsea, too, were banned from signing players in two transfer windows as a result of this but this order was eventually quashed by the Court of Arbitration for Sport.However, his future is again up for discussion.Salary"I don't discuss the salary of players," said Ancelotti."Technically, it's best for Kakuta - he's young, he's trying to improve and we're the best team for him to stay with."He has to take a decision to sign or not. We're sure he'll sign because he's an intelligent player and an intelligent man."SkySportsAnother Joe Cole situation? :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NattyBlue 44 Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 and this simply should not happen, cause now look at them, sure they are top top notch but you can feel that something ist diffrent, c. ronaldo is delivering less and less every season since his outstanding 40 + Season nontheless one of the fastest Players on this planet but you can still feel it.the same way it goes with Messi...I#M missing ppl like Maldini, Lamps, Lizarazu, Zola, Matthäus, Drogba etc, playing at the very best until 34 years of age. Its like they give it all when they're young and than they dont have nough to do it in the latter stages of they're careers.so I would be pleased to see Kakuta hitting absolut top form on 23, 22 Years of age and then long it may be...I agree, ultimately I just hope he stays though, it would be such a shame for him to leaveA 20 year old who has as yet unproven is holding the deal up. Shameful.Indeed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Borini's contract is also expiring by the way.. 'Borini is in the same situation as Kakuta, he has to sign a new contract.''He was in the squad a lot of times but there is very strong competition up front because we have a lot of strikers. Sometimes he will be able to play with us and sometimes he will have to play with the reserve team. He was on the bench against Aston Villa.'

Rubber bullets 1,183 Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 It sounds to me as if he is holding the club to ransom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameron 30 Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 They are both good prospects, nothing more, and if they're not happy & want to leave I won't be too disappointed.Bosingwa and Ivanovic on the other hand... I would be very disappointed if they left for free at the end of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Styles 9,790 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Well if they are asking unreasonable demands then the club should not look weak and accept them.The club are rightly not offering silly wages to players who probably won't make it.As long as McEachran is signed up I'm happy! Couldn't care less about Borini or Kakuta to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Styles 9,790 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Why?Because I don't think they're good enough. Certainly no better than SInclair who never got the chances likewise with Di Santo who were both let go. Mancienne a good young player who is Premier Legaue material constantly shipped out on loan yet these two, who the club seem to want to stay, are refusing to sign new contracts. Let them go I say.

Mancienne a good young player who is Premier Legaue material constantly shipped out on loan yet these two, who the club seem to want to stay, are refusing to sign new contracts. Let them go I say.Who said they're refusing new contracts? Find me one article that says "Borini refusing to sign a new contract" or that "Kakuta refusing to sign a new contract". Carlo said they're yet to sign a contract not that they're refusing to sign it.Borini and Kakuta are both great prospects. Over hyped? Perhaps. But to deny their potential talent is ignorant of you, I believe. Borini and Kakuta have proven just as much as Josh that they're immense emerging talent.Di Santo had his chance. He failed to impress on loan, he failed to impress in the reserves, would you rather we kept players who aren't good enough? Same goes for Sinclair, he had his chance with us and he didn't impress. He's doing brilliant in the Championship, but maybe that's because he's found his level of football now. Mancienne still has a future with Chelsea, he's been loaned out to a Premier League team so if he shines, Chelsea will definitely retain his services.

Unless you think the club still haven't offered these 'great prospects' contracts with just a few months remaining on their current deals?Could Kakuta go to Swansea and put in the same level of performences Sinclair has? Most probably not.We've let go of better players in my opinion which is why I'm not particularly fussed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most probably not.We've let go of better players in my opinion which is why I'm not particularly fussed.Or perhaps they've said "we'll talk about contract issue after the season" because that's what most players do. They like to focus on the season 100% and then handle contract negotiations, in fact that was Roman's policy last season.And I think you're wrong. I believe (from seeing Kakuta AND Sinclair play in the reserves for Chelsea) Kakuta would outshine Sinclair at Swansea, but that's here nor there.I agree. Stoch comes to mind, however you're clearly denying the talent Borini and Kakuta have. Surely you much appreciate their potential to be great?

Badboy 1,526 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Styles you clearly do not know much about youth football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZanSnake 1,211 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Styles you clearly do not know much about youth football.Yes i too believe this claim, and also support it too.A striker the scores 5 goals in one reserve game and is overhyped? Maybe he is helping such high expectations with some good looking performances. To let Borini go out on a free (nor at all) is a stupid mistake in my most honest opinion. The lad has the potential to be a quality player for us or anybody, unlike Di Santo who had a good run but couldn't produce when given the chance.

Madmax 9,219 Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I have Kakuta on my friend list on Facebook and a couple of days back I posted this on his wall : "Gael when will you be signing new Chelsea contract?" I looked at his profile today and the lad has deleted my post LMAO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwylino 329 Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I hope his ego doesnt inflate above the club As a youngsterit will come back to bite him If he holds us to ransom i will be angry But in other terms I hope we keep bosingwa and ivanovic As i mentioned other times Bosingwa wasnt cheap and letting him go would be a wasteBranslav on the other hand is usefull and would be a waste to let this guy go he is worth a lot and would also be a waste if let go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
