And you won't qualify for CL and have to sell him

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

On a serious note though all the other players will want to be paid more and they will emulate his behaviour to get better contracts.

Imagine if you are playing alongside a player that is earning over double what everyone else in the squad is earning, huge tensions

Unfortunately it's teams like Chavski & Citeh who have started all of this.. (in other words ruining football)

Get real, he is twice as talented as most of our other players - the majority of whom are getting paid a kings ransom for being pony. I can see VdV getting the hump but sadly I don't think he is going to be here long term anyway - Bale and Sandro are top draw but the others are one or two steps down and wont get a better gig than Spurs.

If Defoe decided to go on strike I don't think anyone would notice.

awww bubbles when your here it's Chelsea

I still don't think £100,000 a week will be enough to keep him, think about it! After tax that's £50,000 a week, Chelsea are still offering more and hes strained his relationship with the fans and Chairman.

Why do you want him to stay after the way he's treated you?

I can't help but wish we would have got Pastore.

What the hell has either done to deserve that accolade ?

In terms of our current squad they are clearly a cut above whats around them, I'm not saying their Messi, Xavi, Ronaldo class but are by far the best we have and must be kept if we want to progress..

Problem is we have set the bar too high (in terms of average wages) for the likes of Bentley, Crouch, Palacios, Defoe etc. On the one hand we can't get them off the books and on t'other the likes of Bale, Sandro, VdV and Modric (yes even he) are earning the same or similar amounts as this dross.

that dross got us 4th place!

all good top 4 squad players - no more, but you need them

I think you are being a bit harsh on the likes of BAE and Kaboul to be honest.

Benny for instance must be one of the four best LB's in the prem is Sandro one of the 4 best CM players ?

I am not saying that I dont think Sandro will develop because I believe he will, but we had all this hype about Palacios a couple of years ago and look at him now. Sandro has a long long way to go before he can be considered a cut above IMO (ok)

I agree with your opinion on the likes of Bentley etc. we have made some bad signings but we still have fans screaming for us to sign any old player.

King Luis Suarez,

I still don't think £100,000 a week will be enough to keep him, think about it! After tax that's £50,000 a week, Chelsea are still offering more

=============================

But then £130,000pw is only £65k pw.

If you're going to use the tax calc on the wages he'll get at Spurs, you have to take the tax out the Chelsea wage too.

i am against offering him 100k a week.

posted on 23/8/11

Yeh me too Chronic, if anything this whole endeavour should merit him a pay cut!

posted on 23/8/11

I am still in favour of running him over
