Fordy62 Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 I think it’s fair to say JDS will have more tempting and more lucrative offers than here. Villa for example. They need full backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon uk Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 This all reminds me of the tomlin twitter saga, and all of us wondering if hes going to sign or not. Im too old (not as old as robbored) and impatient for that these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meh Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 I’m sure all 3 loans will listen to our offers. If nothing else these tweets stop the moronic “are you signing” tweets 50 times a day. When Tomlin said nothing it was pathetic and embarrassing reading his twitter account; we seemed so desperate and other clubs fans were rightly ripping the piss. Let them have a holiday and talk to family etc just like would want to when making a big career decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As our fee is preagreed and he has had a very good season other clubs may have to stump up more than we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you mean but there’s no guarantee when taking a loan that they will sign for us. It’s not a try before you buy arrangementvwhen you take a season long loan, usually. Chelsea have used us as much as we’ve used them, getting their players experience they can’t give. We do the same with our loans. I guess we didn’t want Newport to buy Semenyo or Rotherham Vyner. That said, there was rumours we had some kind of deal struck for Dasilva. People also thought Kalas might want to settle after being on loan pretty much all his career. In our favour is the fact they know our club and hopefully have enjoyed the experience, If they went elsewhere it could only mean more money, playing at a higher level or prospects of it, or closer to home, depends on what’s important? It sounds like a goodbye tweet, but I think players tend to take seasons as they are and draw a line under and start again. It might just be him signing off from this season ( clutching straws).

Silvio Dante Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 Jeez guys, let’s deal in some facts (and optimism) - Chelsea don’t want JDS. They were happy to agree a fee with us as the loan club so “the next stage of his development” for them is pointless. They’re cashing in and no new manager at Chelsea is going to risk JDS in the first team - We want him. LJ has stated as much. - In terms of better options - where? The two promoted sides don’t need a LB. Realistically, JDS is looking at a top end champ club if he’s leaving Chelsea permanently (and he is, see (1)). I’ll put this bit in bold - we are now a top end championship club. If Villa and Derby don’t go up they don’t have a pot to p!ss in. Half the rest of the league, including so say bigger clubs, are in some kind of FFP borderline. Where is the club who is going to spunk serious money on a LB (and if it’s not us, Chelsea will want more than £2m) So, you’re JDS. You’re leaving Chelsea - where you won’t be on extreme money - and are going to a top end championship club. There’s one club interested, who you know you fit in with, have to pay less than the market so can prob do a good signing on fee (and match/increase your wages). Realistically, where else are you going? Reading too much into social media is an absolute modern curse. He’s coming here. I’d lay decent money on it.

The Bard Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 He's a decent player but I'd rather keep Lloyd Kelly who is a better defender and will be worth am awful lot more than £2 million sooner rather than later.

JamesBCFC Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 DaSilva CB vs someone like Clayton Donaldson would be quite amusing to see.

Olé Posted May 8, 2019 Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 10 hours ago, MC RISK77 said: could just be thanking the fans and his agent pr are just towing the line This! Whether a player is coming or going, until it is finalised and in our clubs and Chelsea's interests to share the news, we won't want the player saying anymore than what he has, otherwise it results in embarrassing climb downs like when Pisano had to say his account was hacked because he had quite clearly been told off for releasing news of his departure too early. There could be any number of reasons why either Chelsea or us or even the player himself don't want to say anything too final at this point, especially if any agreement or paperwork is not complete. I understand the anxiety but the place to announce signing is officially via the clubs involved (and holding up a scarf), not in an Instagram post 48 hours after the final whistle, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
