'Course you 'ave!I’m obviously being sarcastic
Unfortunately you've now reached the stage where you aren't allowed to delight in sarcasm anymore without sending posters into a frenzy.

Go back and read page 1031 from the start. Make sure you read the first quoted post too.
Need a good source of laughter in here that's what Sport brings. They've flip flopped their way through this saga, saying
de Jong wants Chelsea and will do everything to make it happen
then he doesn't even want to consider Chelsea,
to If he leaves he only wants United and United are his priority
Then it's he has no intention of joining United and he wants to stay
Now it's back to if he HAS to leave, it's only Chelsea and he's no intention of going to United.
Give it a few hours and he'll hate Chelsea again and want to stay at all costs. Simple fact is, looking at everything going on, Chelsea aren't even in for him, they showed interest but that's it. Plus with Barca hijacking and taking 2 players from under their noses, do you really see them helping Barca out by forking out €85m for a player they don't even need?? Makes no sense at all
Chelsea are about to hijack us!
Are Sport considered a pro - X team paper? I.e Are they pro Madrid or Barca? People seem to think they hate us at United but is it just anti-Barca stuff? Or is it just a good story that gets more clicks than any other due to involving both Barca and Utd, so they are just making as much money out of it as possible themselves?
I don't bother following, but I imagine they have no information at all on the situation regarding us and Frenkie/Barca. It makes me wonder if there is an ulterior motive. If De Jong stays while refusing a paycut I presume it royally fu**s Barcelona's plans up and screws up player registrations going forward. Could they just be praying we move on, knowing Chelsea have no interest, leaving Barca without a buyer or any negotiating power with regard to Frenkie's contract.. Got to wonder who Sport actually dislike with this.
Or maybe they are actually just right, Chelsea are moving Jorginho on discretely and replacing him with Frenkie, while we get left with out pants down? It's a really strange story given the lack of corroboration elsewhere..

Yes. I’m horrified.
Oh no!
If Chelsea were interested and de Jong truly wanted to go to them and that was his desire, we'd walk away as there's no point in even trying. The fact we're still in tells us that de Jong is interested in coming here or has told ten Hag that he wants to join if he has to leave Barca
Why haven’t they done so with that usual Chelsea efficiency? Old Chelsea would have done so and I don’t believe for one minute new Chelsea are not adverse to splashing the cash.
There out here hijacking everyone this summer.
They're an aggregator and make that very clear but yeah their website has always been an eyesore. They used to do a bit of commentary on bs rumours and their origins but seem to have dropped that these days. The story itself was attributed to Sport who are a terrible source.
I know nobody here really knows anything about the contract situation at Barca, but I wonder if de Jong stays beyond the September deadline, are Barca locked in to the lucrative contact previously agreed with de Jong?
I believe that Sport are a pro Barca outlet but I'm not totally sure. It's been said they report what Barca tell them too, but i don't really know.Are Sport considered a pro - X team paper?

If Chelsea were shipping someone on and were interested enough that a crappy source like Sport are reporting it, then you'd think that the Chelsea tier 1s would at least verify it as true. This is the third time Sport have reported Chelsea links and as per, the Chelsea tier 1s are silent again
"It seems like Sport may have switched the laptop on after a long break. So, perhaps a lag in their social media activity." said the scarecrow
Yeah it is so obvious thhat they are one of the worst clickbait news outlets around mate!
FdJ isn't stupid. He will know that Chelsea are about as certain of CL football as United going forward. 1 season isn't what you would base your future on. Only teams that currently are 95% guaranteed to be in the CL each season are City and Liverpool.
Good point mate!
Ahhh, so that's the stuff they were handing out free the last time I was there!The United megastore, presumably
It felt good, then we lost 0-1 to Wolves and it seemed to stop working, I assumed it was knock off gear.

Sport are a mouthpiece for Barcelona and they write any nonsense that suits the club's official. You read what they write, remember that's very likely coming from Barcelona for PR reasons and move on. Generally from Spain, you take things with a pinch of salt unless it comes from Cadena Ser, Cadena Cope or El Mundo(not El Mundo deportivo which is like Sport an other mouthpiece for Barcelona and often dafter).
This observation deserves more love
If he’s watched any of their pre-season he may rather just choose to be 8th choice CB at Barca.
They're a translator/aggregator account, but I do get a sense of self-righteousness and a pompous attitude from them.
His 'official' transfer figure is £51.2m (€60m release clause widely reported). With agents fees and bonuses it may reach about £85m.
Let’s be honest, Chelsea can’t even get a player to sign an autograph this summer so far, let alone a contract.
The Boehly franchise start up isn’t that appealing at the moment.

I have a question for the legal muppets on here, based on a hypothetical:
- Suppose FDJ did sign a document stipulating a portion of his wages can be paid at a later date, and for argument sake, let's say the later date is August 15th 2022. (can be anything, say he gets his 1st instalment on the deferred wages or the entirety starting August 15th).
- Now suppose 5 business days have passed since August 15th 2022, and FDJ has still got nothing wired to him on the deferred wages.
Could he be within his rights to rip-up the contract with Barca and walk into another club?
In such a situation, where FDJ goes AWOL because his employer are not fulfilling their end of the agreed and signed contract, there would definitely be a court battle between FDJ Barca.
But wouldn't that allow the club receiving him to just pay FDJ a bonus on signing and didly-squat to Barca pending the verdict of the court case?

Didn’t his dad want paying 50m or something insane? As well as a huge agent fee…
How do people still not know what Sports Witness are and who Sport represent.
Not a hope. Raiola had this negotiated before he passed away- there is no way that he would not have milked an oil club for an insane signing on fee (£60m minimum) and a similarly high agent fee. Also, whatever his reported wages are you can probably quadruple them - the Sheikhs pay a lot off the books (refer to Mancini).
Yup, it’s a strange phenomenon. You could have been a season ticket holder for 40 years but if 10 of your posts haven’t been liked then you don’t know shit.
And how much money shifts hands unofficial? its $hitty we are talking about,they cheat with money sums always.. They even admitted to it after the email revelations.
The represent the last bastions of truth, honestly and transparent journalism.
They have probably been bambozzled byy Barca on 2 signings probably now with Rapinha and Kounde and losing half their defence to Barca/Real so you got a point my friend
