It now seems that Leeds have been back and offered £5m for him in for January, apparently he didnt qualify for a work permit in the Summer but with his profile now pretty big and scoring goals it looks like no problems and irons are in the fire so looking like this is a thing. Venlo have offered cash to Leeds for Grot but Leeds are saying there is no purchase included in the loan. This can only mean that the door is open for Grot to have a good season and come back in the Summer. Looks like its down to Grot now
So its now officially confirmed that Leeds do not pay Chelsea a loan fee for Izzy brown and are not paying any wages until he is match ready. fantastic deal and will save plenty of cash in this unique deal. Guessing it has benefits for Chelsea in getting their player fit again and the benefit of working for Bielsa. Our head of Physio went down to Stamford Bridge to watch Izzy training a couple of days before the window closed and to then speak to Chelsea's physio and doctor. So how about this for a wagon and horses being driven through EFL rules, and whatever happened to owners not being allowed to own more than one club ffs:.... Evangelos Marinakis (owner of both Nottingham Forest and Olympiacos) wanted to sign Olympiacos midfielder Panagiotis Tachtsidis for Forest but ran out of time in the window.. .. So instead he terminated Tachtsidis' contract at Olympiacos and signed him on a free for Forest!
More benefit for those tossers at Stamford Bridge though isn't there? If Leeds hold up their part of the bargain and not only get him match fit but Bielsa- fit he'll probably play second fiddle to Saiz and may make in total 15 appearances At the end of the season with Leeds having no option to buy, Chelsea get back a supremely fit footballer whose value has increased even more He can also pass on to the Chelski hierarchy all the tips he picked up at Leeds re the training routine and the Bielsa system in general Whichever way you look at it without having an option to buy clause inserted it's not a good deal for Leeds United
I don’t think Izzy Brown will play second fiddle to Saiz, if he reproduces the talent he has and plays for us like he did for the dog worriers I am afraid Saiz maybe on the bench OR he learns when to release and stop being selfish on the ball, let’s see, it will be interesting.
If you have a kid and he or she can’t swear properly before the age of 5. Then there must be something seriously wrong with that kid.
and i think if we can do something like bending the rules we should do so.let's play by the rules the football league set .
Ok so he replaces Saiz because he's a better player but he's still not a Leeds player and he'll return to Stamford Bridge increasing the value of their asset Don't agree with it sorry and they should get rid of the loan system altogether
Afternoon Forza, my hope is that he gets promotion to the PL with Leeds, loves the club and fans and reckons he's got more chance of finally playing in the top tier with us than Chelsea so tells them he wants to come to us permanently. Player power, and they owe him after all the loan spells.
Come the end of the season, Chelsea will have failed again, they'll buy the next trio of £50m+ talent and the young talent will all drop further down the pecking order. I wonder how many Chelsea youngsters or loaned out talent never make it or have their careers ruined by hanging on to the dream that they are good enough for the Chelsea first team too long
Burt Reynolds dead now need to watch Mean Machine again and Smokey and the Bandit, not forgetting that music dueling banjoes from the film that made him famous. RIP fella top party animal
