speeeeeeedie Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Very true. Chelsea have 29 players out on loan. From The Guardian yesterday: It's not right. They buy young players who would get much better playing 1st team football elsewhere. Once there their confidence gets destroyed as they know they'll never get a game at Chelsea. Then Chelsea loan them out - for a fee, or sell them. It happened with DeBruyne. Mourinho said that he didn't have the temperament to be a top player so shipped him out. 18 months later he's at City after starring for Wolfsburg.

It's disgusting really but that's what happens when the Prem & Champs League are regulated and governed for the benefit of the 'big clubs'. They just buy up the best players (and young players) and if they don't work out it's just a temporary blip on the accounts.
ABBEY Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Could they not just loan him til jan then buy him?

Secondly, he's being egotistical to a ridiculous degree.
Mr. E Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Jeremy Peace is a hero, a rare chairman with dignity who stands his ground. And sadly a reminder for Rovers fans that the rot in this club started long before Venkys. It started with the defeatist attitude we took losing every single player who managed to score a goal or two making it clear we have no spine on the transfer market and willingly accept our position as a stepping stone. Duff, Bentley, Santa Cruz, Samba, etc. etc. It's the same defeatist attitude that is allowing Venkys to tank us to depths imagined on cruise control.

Salgado Is Still A Hero Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Apparently Spurs were only offering 5 million up front. Fair play to West Brom for rejecting the bids. With Berahino and Stones, hopefully player power starts to diminish a little.

A cup of beans Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 I can see the players point of view. At least he's being honest about where he wants to play, and not the usual platitudes and fake flannel. There are 2 sides to the story and Peace has obviously upset him. It seems personal.
roverandout Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Arsene Wenger @#/? up here, no way will arsenal win the league with squad, they lack 3 or 4 quality players, especially up front
chris_h Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 Players who get their heads turned by Tottenham still don't get it. Spurs destroy careers.
Rover_Shaun Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 Spurs were taking the mick again by offering peanuts for players and hoping because the players were thick enough to want to go to that graveyard of careers they'd get unsettled and thus they'd get the player cheaper. Why would West Brom want a fee that was dependant on how many games Berahino played or where Spuds finished in the league? West Brom want hard cash and couldn't then give a toss if he never played again or whether Spuds tumbled down the league pyramid. Spurs chairman sure is weird and he has to go down as a complete and utter failure
Backroom DE. Posted September 2, 2015 Author Backroom Posted September 2, 2015 Seems to me that Berahino and Levy thought they could bully Peace into accepting an offer lower than the club's valuation, and now that it hasn't happened Berahino has thrown his toys out of the pram. As Beansy said, we'd have to know both sides of the story before saying anything definitively, but beyond all of the BS is the simple fact Berahino signed a contract agreeing to play for WBA between a certain period. As long as they're paying him, he should honour that contract, regardless of what he thinks of the chairman.
Guest Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 Players who get their heads turned by Tottenham still don't get it. Spurs destroy careers.Bale must be regretting it.
joey_big_nose Posted September 11, 2015 Posted September 11, 2015 Bale must be regretting it. To be fair a few have gone on to do well - Bale obviously, Berbatov, Carrick.But their dwarfed by the huge numbers of players who have stagnated or gone backwards. For the money they have spent since 2000 they've had a poor return - two seasons in the CL and one League Cup. Terrible. Actually when you go back through their history - as I just have on wiki - apart from a brief period in the sixties they have been also rans. Despite in terms of support being one of the biggest clubs in England they've won the league twice...
Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted September 11, 2015 Moderation Lead Posted September 11, 2015 To be fair a few have gone on to do well - Bale obviously, Berbatov, Carrick. But their dwarfed by the huge numbers of players who have stagnated or gone backwards. For the money they have spent since 2000 they've had a poor return - two seasons in the CL and one League Cup. Terrible. I can't remember who it was that made the point, but basically they don't have any different options in midfield, they're all very samey, there's very little width and not that much bite. But yeah, like you say, they've hugely under-achieved and they squandered the Bale cash on a load of players they didn't need to imo. Rather than prioritising positions they actually needed. Sounds familiar doesn't it?
Backroom DE. Posted September 12, 2015 Author Backroom Posted September 12, 2015 Everton 3-1 Chelsea...
AllRoverAsia Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 The perfect hat-trick by Naismith and all good goals. How I love to see Chelsea get shafted. Watching Norwich v Bournemouth. I like the Norwich strip but Bournemouth's .... words fail me
Backroom DE. Posted September 12, 2015 Author Backroom Posted September 12, 2015 Chelsea's worst start since 1988, and according to Jeff Stelling no club who have started as badly as Chelsea have ever finished any higher than 3rd...
chaddyrovers Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 Barrow is recalled by Swansea and he isnt even on the bench. Why recalled him tho?
USABlue Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 Looks lkke Barrow not even in Swansea squad so why as he recalled, or is he injured.. Ha ha beat me to it Chadster
AllRoverAsia Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 Dann put Aguero out of this game. Yellow should have been Red. My he has come on.
AllRoverAsia Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 I think today was King's 3rd start and 3rd time being subbed. Just sayin.
perthblue02 Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 I think today was King's 3rd start and 3rd time being subbed. Just sayin. Got to say that Bournemouth away kit colour has no place whatsoever on a football pitch, be more at home on the lips of an Essex slapper, just for that they deserve to be 3-0 down.
