It's certainly something like that. Chelsea gave him a five year deal on big bucks not long ago, so even as a loan player he is very expensive, presuming the borrowing club pays most or all of his wages. Clubs like Chelsea give nothing away. They only lent us Batshuyi once he had agreed to sign a one-year contract extension, as they wanted to preserve his value, even though he is plainly of no use to them. If the player had the bollocks he'd have said no, and sat in the stand for a year to free himself. Unless players take the bull by the horns and refuse to sign new deals, these big clubs will just own half the players in Europe, all on some s*** merry go round of loans. Chelsea have more than 30 players in other peoples firsts teams around Europe. It's a system that stops the medium and small clubs in the top flights from building up salable assets. Who exactly can Fulham and West Brom cash in on now they are down? Almost nobody, as they already belong to big clubs elsewhere. We will of course have to take a loan or two every year as we can't afford not to, but it's the same as renting a place because you can't afford to buy, then spending what you do have in time, money and energy renovating it and making it nice. A fools errand, as its not your asset, but one you just have to swallow if you're not rich enough to buy it. Well he has sat in the stand for the majority of this year - just SP not Stamford Bridge

I'd have him back in a heartbeat too. Class player. Hope your going to pay his £150k a week wages. Will never go to a another big club, he has a dodgy back and is out injured too much.

Wow we've got Batsman on loan, he's gonna score 20 plus, absolute steal only £20m plus, bargain!!! Back to reality a complete drain on our resources and albeit an offside wonder goal, rightly disallowed has done sweet F.A for us. Question is why would we want Loftus Cheek. Earns a fortune and has delivered very little for Fulham and has cost them £7m plus in wages. Some people just want to see Chelsea cast offs playing for us . My advice, go and watch Chelsea reserves.

These players wouldn't even make the Chelsea Reserves. Third XI, maybe.

Sheff Utd were obviously more desperate. I'm glad we swerved him as I don't think he's shown anything that would make me want him at Palace. If anything it's proven just because someone has come through Liverpool, doesn't mean they have any sort of superior pedigree. In fact I'm fed up of their underperforming cast-offs

Some players just don't adapt well to a different club environment. Wilf struggled at Man U for various reasons. Benrahma hasn't yet settled at West Ham after his move from Brentford although not a favourite of mine. Ollie Watkins on the other hand....wish we could have bought him. When RLC was with us I was really impressed with his performances. He made a huge impact and would have been well pleased if he had come back. But he does seem to have been plagued with injuries and coupled with his pay package it makes him too much of a risk. It certainly hasn't worked out for him at Fulham. So, no, sorry Ruben.
Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |
