I counted them on the Premier League website, only including players which had "loan" written against them. I hadn't seen any other list. Regardless of the number it's beyond ridiculous. I wonder how many of them are going to have a career with Chelski (assuming you think going on loan is not a career), and how many of them will never achieve their potential because of this stockpiling that Chelski are doing. I then wonder how many of them are being properly advised by their agents. I've just noted that three of the loans are to other PL teams. I really don't think that should be allowed. Yes I know we've done it but I still don't agree with it.
BBC listed it on the deadline day page yesterday. Frankly, i don't care enough to go and find it It's a LOT, we can all agree on that. And they're arseholes.
Here's the full list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016–17_Chelsea_F.C._season#Loan_out I think that they've got more senior players out on loan than we've actually got contracted to the club.
So, back to the PL. How many points do we have to make up to catch Leicester ?? How many extra goals do we have to score to be rated as equal most attacking-est club ... in the world ?? ------O
No. How can this be ?? Have they already lost to Spurs ?? Ah yes, they lost to our B team on the first game of the season. In fact, it seems not even the full complement was required to do that (no Dawson) .
Citeh to go to the bother of challenging the Aguero Violent Conduct Charge. FFS just write a cheque like you do for everything else, fellas.
Why? He clearly throws the elbow. It doesn't matter how much of a connection he made. This might be seen as frivolous, in which case he'll miss the games against Utd, Bournemouth, Swansea and... Swansea. Back-to-back visits to the Liberty stadium for City, due to their cup draw.
There could be a good reason for this, the players are away on International break then have to travel back to their clubs next week. It could be that any hearing will not be scheduled until the following week leaving him free to play in the United game.
Clubs have used this loophole before haven't they? It really needs to be closed. There is no reason you can't appeal a card and get a verdict before the next game. How long does it take to watch a replay for crying out loud?
Be aware that Guardiola is utterly ruthless. Probably more so than even Maureen. They're both in the business of winning, which is why they don't like each other. If Guardiola thinks he can gain a small advantage by making a spurious appeal, he will.
