I’d take him on a Free all day long. 100% worth the gamble in my opinion.

Leicester or Everton

The reason he's leaving us is because he wants guaranteed football time.
The fact he was willing to cut his wages to stay at the club clearly shows his intention to leave was not financially motivated.
If you think Conte/Sarri/whoever your next manager will be can guarantee that Jack will be a first-choice starter for you, then maybe it's worth a shot. It would be underwhelming if this is the calibre of player you are going for, though.
Personally, I would put my money on him ending up at a West Ham, Crystal Palace or Everton.
I'm sure most of the top clubs wouldn't mind Jack in their squad, but none of them can give him the assurances he wants for playing time.

Well we tricked Barkley into thinking he'll get playing time with us so don't rule us out.

He'd be a better option than Fabregas or Drinkwater.....and still no

Not sure we need another player living off past performances (Barkley, Drinkwater etc)
Also if we signed Wilshere it would limit Loftus-Cheeks playtime.

When the man was at Bournemouth was no better than Drinkwater.

Exactly, we already have the future of English football in Loftus-Cheek. Just hope we're not dumb enough to lose him as we've done with others.

Yep.. Loftus-Cheek along with Rashford should be starting for England imo, Why is Jesse Lingard starting in CM? Loftus-Cheek already looks more accomplished than him.
