CHO........
Following on from the media reports and also the posts on our board, I would like to say that, having spoken with friends and family in north and southern Gemany,the general impression is that Bayern are "trying to take our pants down".
The latest reports say that they have increased their offer to 35 million euros.If we accept that offer,Bayern will see it as money well spent,which they can recoup in a not to long
a period of time,if they are not happy with things.
Bayern ,as we know are a very business minded club,with long term objectives,they see CHO, as part of their long term future now that Robben and Ribery are past their best, and don't forget that we are one of their main rivals in Europe.
People in Dortmund know exactly the way Bayern operate and think that we would be bloody silly to let him go there,
they have lost so many of their top players to them over the years at a huge cost to their own aspirations ,so I say to the Chelsea board,
GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER, CHO MUST STAY !
Take our pants down !

CHO has 18 months left on his contract and has no intention of signing a new one. What would you do if you were conducting our contracts/transfers? Please bear in mind the bluffs and double bluffs that go on between clubs and agents.

First sensible comment. Yes, ideally, we would sign CHO to a new long-term contract - but he has turned that down. The club's first choice is to do what all Chelsea fans want - which is to offer him a new contract. But CHO doesn't want to stay apparently. It's disappointing, but presented with those circumstances the board is doing the next best thing which is to sell him at the highest price possible - bearing in mind that he has 18 months remaining on his contract.
It's possible that we could call his bluff and refuse to sell him, and try to get him to sign a new contract within the next 18 months. That's a REALLY long time for an 18 year old - and a lot can change in that time, such as he could cement a first team place which could persuade him to sign a new contract. But that's a £35M risk. I'm not sure the club is prepared to take that risk. £35M now is better than £0 in 18 months.

Sarri was bigging up CHO in his press conference? He stays and plays.

J2 I know what you are saying but is selling a player potentially as good as Robben or Hazard be termed as good business?I would prefer to sell him at least at the end of this season after giving him ample opportunities as a regular squad player at least for the next five months.He could turn out to be eye-catching and might even become happy and sign a new contract afterwards in seven months time if he is happy with game time given to him by Chelsea!

£35m now isn’t worth throwing away the chance of convincing him to sign a long term contract over the next 18 months IMO.

You want him to stay, get him in the team. When he sees a regressing Willian constantly getting picked and a 31 year old Pedro who is inconsistent you can't blame him.

Oh , and by the way,the word is that they like RLC as well !.

Bayern just want to sign him because they want their Sancho. He's gonna end up like Solanke.

Just tell Bayern that we won't sell them either CHO or RLC.
