But as it's all through agents then it matters not really.

 

got nothing to do with his contract expiring in the summer though.

 

His agent can legitimatly talk to european clubs now but only to domestic in the summer. Granted I doubt any fucker bothers with this.

Sturridge, Romeo, Mikel, Ramires, Luiz are not on 100k a week, no chance.

 

They should get better agents then. Cahill is in the driving seat and can push his wage demands. Who could blame him, Chelsea need him at the moment a lot more than they need Romeo and Juliet!

The other story doing the rounds is that the hold-up isn't money related.

 

Gaz's agent has allegedly asked for assurances that his client will play regularly ie to ensure his England place.

This is the gamble you take going to a big club, especially a club that can easily replace you if your not as good as they thought. And only bought as a cheap stop gap.

I really appreciate the way that experts in their respective fields take the time and trouble to register to impart such knowledge upon us.

i do too, just hope that cahill going is the catalyst for the new signings coming, everything should be in place, shouldnt it?

 

They should be but as we know with BWFC it doesnt mean that they are! Weve known for long enough now so if theres no contingency plan then we deserve to get relegated.

and if the contingency plan was sunk by somebody else being able to move on their deal yesterday - eg neddy from city

 

i know what you mean but the football world doesn't stand still waiting for bwfc to be ready to move

CB pairing.

 

Ricketts and Wheater .. Wheater and Knight .. Knight and Ricketts

 

errrm Ricketts as done well on return at LB, maybe wait till Alonso is back, with Cahill leaving, I really hope we get someone else in, having Knight as a guaranteed CB is worrying. Yeah Ricketts and Knight did quite well when Cahill had a blood clot, but I have 0 confidence in Knight and Wheater and Ricketts ain't anything special in the position.

 

Problem is, would any quality (good enough) want to come and join a team figgting for relegation, with little money and prospects?

I would hope the contingency plan contains more than just one replacement in case our first choice doesnt come off. Surely the club wouldnt be stupid enough to think we can replace A with B guaranteed and thats that.

at least 2 of that five are absolute shite though

 

Mikel, Ramires & Luiz will all be on 100k a week and the other two wont purely due to them being signed at a young age. Sturridge wont be far off 100k a week when he gets his next contract imo. That Romeo is playing more and more and he will possibly get a big contract in a few years time if carries on.

 

Chelsea paid Mikel a bomb to get him to sign for them over Munich.

I remember that debacle, didn't United sign him from Brann (or somebody similar) for about ?5M - at the same time Chelsea also believed they had signed him. In the end Chelsea had to stump up about ?15M to United in order to get the player.

 

United did very well out of it, in effect making about ?10M on a player they never really owned

 

Either way, for a player that cost Chelsea well over ?10M, I would expect him to be nudginh around ?100K per week

 

 

or something like that......

Ant CB pairing (like CF position) takes a few games for players to adjust to each other. Ricketts and Knight were awesome last season when Cahill was out. Whichever he starts with he MUST stick with for at least three games to see them "settle in".

 

Wouldn't be suprised if the two that start tomorrow are the new first choice (unless we sign neddy manure or Bob Reamer of the US of A)

We won't be buying Onuoha as we can't afford his wage demands and The Ream deal is close to completion. Just waiting on the Cahill deal to go through for the funds.
