Courtois Update

Let his agent pay it

WW, I think you're missing my point. Chelsea are fully entitled to exercising the clause, and nobody really should be complaining about something they'd previously agreed to. Logic and reason are totally on your side, but human emotions come into this in a big way and while exercising a cold, legal clause at this point in time would make total sense for your short term interests, it could prove a bad move for the long term.

On the other hand, you can of course argue that a bird in the hand...

If its true we are negotiating a new contract with him at the moment, he should use it as a bargaining chip.

Hopefully we will avoid them and all this is for nothing.

If there was a choice of beat them in a semi cause their back up keeper plays bad and Courtios never plays for us and he plays and then signs a new contract after they beat us what option would we prefer?

I say sod him I want to win the throphy.

Yep, but the real outcomes are unknown. Aranzubía (ATM reserve keeper) is crap imo, but that only improves your chances, it doesn't guarantee you getting through. Worst case scenario would be not winning the thing and losing the player. The choices aren't clear, which is what makes it interesting. It's a question of which way to hedge your bets.

No one is bigger than the club.

Roman is
