So Chelsea signed Jadon Sancho on loan with an obligation to buy him for 25m at the end of the season.

BUT

There was a clause that if Chelsea paid 5m, they could get out of that obligation.

And as the greedy cunt wouldn't sign for less than the 300 grand pw he is on at United (who are paying half his wages), they are sending him back

LOL

This is now a complicated situation. Chelsea gave the Rags £5 million, but the Rags will have to fork out £15 million on wages for the remaining year of the contract. I'm guessing there's no way either party would want to extend his contract with the Rags, no matter how well he performs next season. If he plays brilliantly, as a 26 year old free agent he might command wages upward of £300k next summer. But if the Rags choose to reduce his role to a cameo, then he may well end up having to take a significant pay cut to find a new club.

I can't see him going anywhere either now or in Jan, with the shortness of his contract and his wage demands, unless those demands were Chelsea-specific, and he'd take a pay cut for another club (or be open to a contract structure that Chelsea weren't able/willing to offer).

He's probably been worth 15 points to them to be honest, as others have suggested.

I'm gutted he's staying because otherwise they'd be nailed on for relegation

I see TNT are reporting that Dave Brailsford has given up on the rags and is off to Ineos Cycling - mind they’ve been struggling without Dave, must be the lack of TUEs

Do we think Scruffy Jim might just jack it in as a bad job?

Scruffy Jim has lost one quarter of his wealth in the last 12 months alone.
It's no wonder him and Saint Marcus don't see eye to eye on free lunches.

Comedy gold, this report. On the BBC, as well, which shows their other reported value to be a complete and utter lie.

Always astounds me how Bacon has had a free pass in all of this. It was his greed over the Rock of Gibraltar that led to the Glazers coming in and he also endorsed them as well.

Yet not one fucking word is said against the cunt. And the rags would have you believe he was in line for the last Popes job
