    You seemed have done a 180 on Siggy. Llorente is a very old striker who suffered an injury in the summer . Take the ten million and run I say

    That injury was a broken arm and he did it on holiday with his familt, nothing to do with football. As for him being very old he is 32 for **** sake, younger than Williams and LLorente still has 3 seasons left in him.

    Relegated is relegated, regardless of points accumulated.

    Age is a huge difference between a striker and a defender IMO and I don't really care about how he got the injury , older people don't heel real well and I can see this injury being on his mind with every leap for a header .

    Yep I agree he is going to worry about how he broke his arm on holidays everytime he tries to head the ball, I suppose if he scores he wont even celebrate due to post traumatic stress, due to constantly thinking about how he broke his arm.. Roof sometimes your logic don't ****ing half confuse me, that is the biggest load of tosh you have ever put on here. .

    Your arms are super important to get into the air and come in contact many times when you jump , the old timer will be looking around when he leaves the ground now , unlike before . Your a leg and foot man , I don't expect you to understand :)

    With AC Milan and Liverpool dropping out of the Sanchez race , we appear to be upping our push to sign him , to the point we are garrenteeing him a 1st team spot .

    What's the point of a contract as it only seems to benefit the player who makes sure he gets every penny and bonus payments while here. They are happy to sign 3 or 4 year contracts and we are happy to pay them......But if they have a good first season the bigger clubs become interested and these same players who's agents have squeezed every penny they could out of the club now want to break that contract within a season in some cases for a better deal elsewhere.....Why the hell should we as a club let these players go....We should have the guts to say sorry we are not interested in selling as they are under a long term contract so look elsewhere.....A lot of it is to do that we have a weak chairman/Board and owners that likes a profit but we need to keep the team strong and staying comfortably in the Premiership is a substantial profit anyway......Contracts that both parties were happy to sign and agree too should be Honoured and if a bigger club enquires then we should say NO and if they persists they should be fined heavily to stop this practice going on......Just my own view of contracts....

    Llorentes value is completely dependent on the number of years he's got left in his legs Imo. I think he only has one years worth of top flight football left in him after which his performances will drop.

    As he gets older his valuation will fall too so whoever buys him now will not be able to make any money selling him next year and even less the year after.

    That's why I'm ready to duck for cover and say that I don't think Llorente is worth more than £15m.

    Whoever buys him knows they are only buying 1 years worth of service from him because no one can beat time and, sadly, Llorente has very little of it left left. So Chelsea and Everton will be buying whatever Llorente does have left, one year of top flight football imo.

    Even at his current levels of fitness the most optimistic of us see him as a bench warmer at Chelsea, while Everton will be playing him a lot more and praying he lasts the season, he is injury prone. So neither are looking to spend £ms on him as if he was a 20something.

    If he wants to go we cant stop him so let him go and get paid £15m for him while we're about it. That would be the shrewd move imo.
