They're quoting the Athletic. According to RMC Sport The Athletic claimed Chelsea were preparing a bid
Knew i've seen this before. Am sure RMC reported this the other day. Jesus this account is slow? Or is it a new report today based on a report from the Athletic about a week ago
 


Get away!

In my opinion this is Barca trying to get us to up our offer to cover Fenkie's wages. Nothing more. We won't be outbid by Chelsea for the player and I doubt Frenkie would string ETH on and then change his mind last minute.
Be calm muppets.
 
Do barcelona realise that time is in our favour ? What stops us from offering less on deadline day after they've come to an agreement with de jong to cover his previous wages ?

Didn't we try that once with Ronaldinho, and look what happened there? Or am i mistaken
 
No! Not done! 3 months have passed and it’s still misquoted. He said probability not done. It was never 95% done. Ever.

Calm down :lol:

Same difference. If someone told me something is 95% done, I'd think there's a 5% chance it won't be. If someone says it's 95% likely, I'd think exactly the same.
 
Just don't buy this at all.

Someone is lying, probably Barca.

RMC Sport are just referencing the Athletic article:

"The London club are preparing an offer for the Dutch international according to The Athletic"

And the Athletic article merely says that Chelsea are "watching De Jong's mess of a situation at Barca with considerable interest"

Unless the Chelsea interest hasn’t been there. Can’t string ETH along if no other club has been interested up until now.
 
Ay watch your mouth. Nothing wrong with North Birmingham
My family is in Cannock. The hotel on the a5/a34 at Churchbridge is called ‘Birmingham North’. I can confirm Churchbridge is not great. Nor is Wyrley, Bloxwich (absolute ghetto dive shithole) or Walsall. Be specific or take the generalised insult!! :D
 
and about language... not clear to me if a french/italian would prefer spain. their language is more similar but english is the de facto world language and many of them will have at least some knowledge, so it is minimum a tie and i would say that they prefer england. for example, im spanish and i live in the usa because of the language (only spanish/english spoken countries). i had offers from france but i wasnt interested because of the language.
I'm not thinking that much about the players as their families. Yes, you can move to the US and get along with Spanish and some English in lots of places, but a South American family that definitely speaks zero English is going to feel miserable in England relative to being in Spain or even Italy/Portugal where you can sort of work your way around it. It's obviously a significant factor for players to settle and focus on the job.
 
Why the feck does he want to go to a team with stability and Champions League. Is this moron scared of a challenge?
 
And you don't think they'll try to get them to pen a new deal?

If they weren't going too, you'd imagine that they'd be linked with moves away from the club by now. (unless they have been, i've not followed)

Jorginho has been linked with moves pretty much every summer for years, this summer is no different. Personally I do not think FDJ to Chelsea is something that’s going to happen as we do have other more pressing needs but also, Chelsea going for him is not as crazy as some make it sound, as we will eventually need to buy new midfielders. If Chelsea do go for him, it seems more like they’re striking because they opportunity is there rather than him filling a pressing need for us.

Dude, I’m calm.
But if one more person says ‘95% done’ imma go to my car and blast me some speed metal, 5.1 surround sound heavy on the bass - and somebody is getting mowed down!!!! :devil::lol:
 
LVG should be popping his head over to de Jong telling him that if he stays at Real Madrid he won't start, so he won't be part of his World Cup squad. And Chelsea won't improve his starts that much, as they already have such a solid midfield. But LVG won't do that because LVG hates us. :(

EDIT: Brownie85 has called me out on my mistake. Yes, yes, Barcelona. My bad. :D

I mean, he won't get any play time there at all

Anything past junction 7 is just Birmingham affiliates. But I had a nice time in Cannock;) and scored many goals against Wyrley and Hendesford Town. So nothing but good things from me.
