Let's All Laugh At... Let's all laugh at Chelsea thread

It's a bit unfortunate that we didn't get any transfer business done before this was settled. They can legitimately content for our targets, now.

They’ve paid Conte off then. If they were always going to do it why wait so long.

Can treat himself to a lovely new wig with the payout.

If it is true RA has cut the cords some my guess is that they had to wait until they could secure guaranteed funding which would be enough to offset his payoff. If that was a bank loan or other financial wizardry we may never know. If it was via player sales we will probably know in the next few weeks.

It’s rumoured to be a hair raising amount after all!

To get rid of Conte, Chelsea will need toupee

Chelsea announcement over Conte sacking delayed with Italian ‘disgusted’ and lawyers haggling over pay-off. Eddie Newton to take training tomorrow with Sarri deal close #CFC

Laughing stock comes to mind..

I won't Shed a tear.

Excellent, four weeks until the season starts and transfer window shuts.

Conte worked hard to get sacked. Credit to him

Who is he whinging at in the real video?

Well, the longer they left it, the less they have to pay him.

Also, they will have been arguing that Conte helped create this situation by how he handled Costa, and lowballing his payoff as a result.

 

[spud]

That is absolutely brilliant.

(Apart from the Tottenham bit.)

It's that true? I thought that they had to pay him for the remaining length of his contract? Whether they'd sacked him six weeks ago, or now he's still due the same amount of money isn't he? Isn't it more to do with getting a replacement?

Sarri has been appointed manager now. Looks like they were just getting him over the line before sacking Conte.

If the Russian had paid up they could've got him over the line the second Napoli announced Ancelotti, and that was over a month ago.

Something weird's definitely going on there.

Chelsea's behavior this window has been very bonkers but Jorginho is a good signing. Sarri is a wildcard though, I would be surprised if he lasts a year and had time to implement his style of play in that political and premodanna of an environment.

Matt Law claiming Rugani, Golovin, and Alisson their remaining targets along with Huguain if Morata leaves. Also that the Sky Sports story of Barca wanting a Kante for Gomes plus cash deal is not true.

Very curious to judge their window at the end because some of those targets with their existing personnel would be seriously good. If they do lose some of their players, like rumored, then it may be status quo.

Someone better hose him if he tries this at the NWHL
