The Utd tradition was a lie
----------------------------------------------------------------------

In a few years time the sin machine will make out that Shaw came through the OT youth system.

*spin

Either works

I was gonna say sin works.

Chelsea have easily spent more (on both fees and wages) on young players to then loan them out.
--------------------

Which player of his age have we done this with?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I said players not player. Not singular

Gakuta, Atsu, Piazon, Hazard, Marin, Moses, Kalas, Wallace, Lukaku, De Bruyne and that is just off the top of my head.

All making Chelsea comply with FFP

I said players not player. Not singular
------------------

So you are comparing ONE player you bought to the combined fees of several Chelsea bought then?

Does that seem like a reasonable thing to do then? Seems to me you're a bit silly if you do.

No, if you read my earlier comment. Shaw will start for us, and is a position that was essential we strengthened.

Mourinho is commenting on the fee and wages but at least Shaw will become a mainstay of the squad unlike the money that Chelsea have frittered away on players that will most likely never feature for them.

you're a scream

Guardian making up figures again. Hasn't Jose been quoted as saying he wanted £100k a week?

Chelsea fans particularly have nothing to say. Their club is paying a teenager who has never played for the first team in a competitive game £2m a year
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So you've seen Chelsea u21 players contracts have you?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

It was a big discussion point last month after the youth cup final. Take an interest in your club and you might learn a thing or two.

Ruben Loftus-Cheek £1.7m a year...

So his wages have gone down in less than an hour

You should still have Pogba and 30M to play with seeing as wages are not a worry.
How does that feel like now ?

So we have one United fan saying you can't believe the papers and the next one using them to try and prove a point

Well, you have a budget and work within that. So sure, Shaw is expensive but obviously within our budget. He was an essential signing and (hopefully) means we will not have to worry about that position for a considerable amount of time whereas in 4 years you will be searching for another lb

whereas in 4 years you will be searching for another lb
-------------------

So still nothing to do with your original point then.

Keep trying to move the goal posts why don't you.

In response to his Shaw comments maybe one of the press reporters present should have asked Jose if he thought the £32m transfer fee, £100k plus per week wages and £6m in agents fees Chelsea paid for a 21 year old Eden Hazard who was totally unproven in any of Europe's big leagues was excessive. Did he think it could have upset team solidarity as he was on around double what CL winner Juan Mata was being paid. Would have been interesting to hear his response and if he'd have criticised his own club for paying such huge wages to a young player who was unproven at top level and had only ever excelled in a poor French league.

As much as i loved Fergie i often criticised him for coming across as a hypocrite. Seems Jose is now following the same path as his great Scottish friend.

The key point to take from this is that Chelsea fans are rent boys with absolutely no concept of irony.

Pretty common practice to round up decimal places. You'd know that if you had passed GCSE maths... or year 6 SATS for that matter...

7th place panic buying.
When you laughed at Chelsea before you are now doing yourselves.
Explain this irony to me

You seem to get very angry when proven wrong Flash.
I'm not even trying tbf

Well my original point basically related to Chelsea spending money on non-essential personnel and the criticising us for buying someone who was very much needed. But you want to be difficult so lets just leave it at that

TCP,

I am above getting angry at the disabled.

It explains why you dont use mirrors
