Yep. Funny to think that the influence of a young man from Ecuador could have had lent such a gloss to the cv of GP.Interesting to see that.
As I wrote the other day, the run from April (particularly Arsenal and Spurs away; Man Utd and West Ham at home) really changed perception imo.
And the difference was Caicedo...
If the reports were correct...... £60m.One rhetorical question I’d have for Potty and his merry little men who followed him is, I hope the extra dosh was worth it!
Yes, a good question to put to the multi-multi-millionaire Potter. I reckon it probably was, for him.One rhetorical question I’d have for Potty and his merry little men who followed him is, I hope the extra dosh was worth it!
Nope I'm not seeing that at all.Yes, a good question to put to the multi-multi-millionaire Potter. I reckon it probably was, for him.
“What first attracted you to billionaire Todd Boehly?”Yes, a good question to put to the multi-multi-millionaire Potter. I reckon it probably was, for him.
I read something somewhere that said there would be performance clauses that build security in for both parties because Chelsea would be mad to do such a long contract without them. It might also be that his pay is partially deferred too - the supposed £800k a month is more than Arteta, puts him on a par with Conte pretty much, and not far behind Klopp. Chelsea would be crazy to pay that from the start to someone so unproven and it may be that it's a much lower (but still amazing) figure with some of the salary linked to specific milestones being met.If the reports were correct...... £60m.
Sixty f*cking million pounds!!!
Just think about what you can do with that amount of money.
It's actually insane that Chelsea would pay that amount.
I wonder if there are performance related clauses built into the contract.
How much of that would he receive if he got sacked?
I'm not so sure. He's smart enough to know that this wouldn't have been his only opportunity for a big(ger) job if he'd been more patient, that it may have been an error of judgement, and he's thin-skinned enough / big ego enough to feel all the criticism sharply. I would imagine if he gets sacked it'll take him a long time to get over that, however much money he's made: he'll know he's quite likely sabotaged his chance of respect and being seen as a mould-breaking success because it's unlikely he'll get a big 6 chance again, and those two things matter a lot to him I think.Yes, a good question to put to the multi-multi-millionaire Potter.

Hilarious to think someone from here has registered with the Chelsea forum just to pretend to be you.Still can't post as Swansman but feel I need to reply to this.
"Droyman" isn't me. "SwedishEntity" is me.
It makes no sense that I'd think "oh, SwedishEntity is a bit obvious - I'll go around and firecely defend someone under the name of "Somethingman" instead".
The similarity in usernames suggests that someone from here is trying to make it look like I'm at The Shed End all the time. I'm not. Some of you are apparently, but personally I just check in once in a blue moon. I don't even read threads because I know what every thread says already, and I also know that I'm not interested in fencing for Graham over there right now.
Whatever loser from here spending time at The Shed End roleplaying as me: you're peak tragedy. I thought I was a bit silly posting a lot on NSC, but this weird roleplay thing over at The Shed End is just taking the patheticism (may not be a word but now it is) to the next level.
Not even doing a good job: you can use two or three exclamation marks over a lifetime and this bloke just throws them around in pretty much every post.
One thing I was wondering is whether anyone can recall a manager turning down a move from a modest / small club to a twatish / big one?
I was racking my brains for an example of a time when the likes of Chelsea, Liverpool etc. were turned down? Of course, we might not know it had happened because approach and turning down was kept private, but that's unlikely right?
Utterly predictable.Edit: Chelscum fans attacked some Fulham in the queue outside a Fulham pub ( Golden Lion) after the game.
Mick Beale then of QPR turned down the Wolves job recently, at the time the media were impressed with his loyalty, 10 minutes later he’s at IbroxOne thing I was wondering is whether anyone can recall a manager turning down a move from a modest / small club to a twatish / big one?

I do suppose we view our club with blue n white specs, however, we do have a great set up and I would think the view of us from players perhaps signing for us must be good. The squad does appear to be close knit in the main with some very good professionals.interesting reading these responses!
I've been looking at this from another angle, how good is our chairman and set up to support the team and their leader!
From top to bottom, our amazing club is set up for success - I would like to see GP suceed but interesting to see how this plays out under the new structure he has and players on big contracts he will have to lose somehow
Hello Swansman mark MX11VYou should setup your own football forum or start your own football podcast.
You’d certainly have your followers. NSC is obsessed with you. Time you think how to cash in on this?
