Couldn't have memed it better
They have said the evidence is against Bartomeu basically but FDJ and his entourage could be implicated too, I guess simply by agreeing and signing the contract. Seems bully tactics to get him to comply with their demands to be honest!
Chelsea don't need a new striker. They need someone who can actually get the ball to the attackers in dangerous areas. Wether it's Werner, Havertz, Sterling or Lukaku - they are not gonna score goals until someone can get them the ball in dangerous areas.
No one (other than maybe Kovacic) can progress the ball fast enough in the Chelsea midfield atm. That's why I feel these links are not just being made up. I think Chelsea are interested but they need the defense sorted first.

Seems they still want him to reduce his contract or leave.
I'm still confident that Barca will cave and give him his money., and he'll come here. No sane person on earth would want to stay there if much of what has been reported is true. Such a scummy club.

Close to changing vote
That's what I've been thinking throughout this whole saga. Unless the "I'm staying" stance is just a tactic employed by his agents to let Barca know he won't leave without his money.
Don't believe that anymore
It could just be both. He won't leave unless he gets his move but also he doesn't want to leave.
I think thats the general concensus at the moment.
If he says he wants to leave, Barca might use that against him and and make him forgoe his wages/bonuses etc as they'd see it as a transfer request so to speak. Though thats just what i think
Most likely case and has been mentioned before he may be forfeiting loyalty monies if he were to start communicating with other clubs.
Hows that news looking now?
That’s what money is for. We are the disgusting, unkempt, slob at the brothel waving our cash under Frenkie’s nose. It was always going to be about money. The old joke: we have established what you are, now we’re simply negotiating a price.
He will stay or go to Chelsea he is not coming here. He made a fool out of ETH and I think Ten Hag has come to realise it. Most on here still havent.
Considering we're not signing Sesko and using that money to buy Rabiot/that Argentinian midfielder, the same as this morning
The only thing to wait for is his first interview where he says that the only club he would ever have left for is Chelsea.
He doesn’t want to come. In the unlikely event he does, he probably will put the bare minimum effort in before deciding he wants to leave.
Hmm, from Barcelona's perspective, any actions regarding malfeasance should be taken against the former directors. Was FDJ and his team responsible for keeping Barcelona from signing a "bad" contract?
Moreso, even if it was illegal, isn't he still entitled to that money having performed under the terms of the contract?
Barcelona sounds like a mess.
and no De Jong either.
He isn't that kind of person.
Whilst United are still in, they obviously still believe there is a chance.
The problem is, de Jong hasn't said anything to anyone, so any story journos are getting they'll report as news. No matter what. We don't know whats real and whats not... all he's ever said is he wants to stay at Barca, nothing else at all
From a legal perspective its 100% on Barca, FDJ can just get paid those wages as it's Barca as a institution that fecked up.
It's like if a company sells you a product by accidentally listing it at $1 instead of $1000 the company is liable not the consumer.
Must have missed that report today
How do you know he hasnt said anything? This has been going on for months and you reckon he hasnt said one fecking peep to any friends or team mates?
Nothings really changed.
Scum club Barca dont want to pay him off so he will leave. Frenkie will continue to call their bluff and publicly state he wants to stay.
If he stays there is nothing they can do but pay his wages. Hence now Barcelona moving onto the next scummy move and threatening legal action to annul his contract based on wild allegations of the previous regime.
Clearly Frankie has told them he won’t take another pay cut. Nor will Barca be able to register anyone if he stays.
Let’s see if that scum club actually come to a compromise with his agent on the deferred wages and we can finally put an end to the Saga.

Don't do it. Have faith!!
You must, dont worry it will continue until he is stood beside Tommy Tickles with a big shit eating grin on his stupid face.
You know this how?
People enjoy being negative.
It's much easier to be negative than it is to be positive in all honesty, because it's so much easier to put out negative news than positive news.
He probably has, but then i bet what he's said has been twisted and added to in order to create a good story.
His team mates probably say "I think he'll prefer to go to Chelsea due to CL" the reports will be "de Jong tells team mates he wants Chelsea move due to CL and will not move to United under any circumstance"
The thing that bothers me more than De Jong not coming, and he never was, is the loss of face for Ten Hag. He will be lampooned for this. He better get the performances up for the next few matches.
Nothing today actually changes anything. If anything, it forces him further out of Barcelona.
The thing that worries me is Rabiot. I see him as an alternative, although Ornstein says otherwise, so who knows.
If we let De Jong go to Chelsea without a fight though, it’s a fecking nightmare

He hasn't said anything in public. I am sure he has spoken to his girlfriend and his agent for example but none of the quoted stories can be verified. I could easily say I bumped into him in the street and he told me he dreams of playing for United and can't wait to leave Barca, I can't prove he said it but I can claim it. Frenkie is keeping quiet and so the rumours continue.
Yeah he is taking a massive L on this
I am not negative I am realistic. I do not enjoy negativity but I have seen this shit happen far too many times, not to this level of circus but still, to not realise we are being used. If we were in the CL id be a lot more confident but the club and Ten Hags relationship with Frenkie Smugface are being used by him and his agent.
Anyone could do it. I could say i went on holiday to Barca, saw him out and about and was told this and that etc.
Who can prove i didn't see him and he didn't say all that to me? Some journos will very likely report on it, regardless of whether it can be verified or not
He hasnt talked to any team mate past or present? Not one? Wise up
But why would FDJ want to stay at this point after everything he's been put through by the club? Perhaps I'm just being naive but insisting on getting what you're owed is understandable, it's staying on where you're clearly not wanted and have been publicly humiliated, that's the part I don't get.
Unless he's got masochistic tendencies and enjoys being treated like dirt.
Yeah this is a rare occasion where Ornstein is wrong, he is definitely an alternative and boy that is underwhelming.
If De Jong goes to Chelsea it's just another indicator that the gulf between us and the title challengers is getting bigger rather than smaller.
