I hope im wrong & he still signs but i doubt Diego would have signed a deal for us whatever happened after the debut season he has just had, he has been around the mercenary/wealthy side of football for his entire life thanks to his dad.
Im sure he will claim in an interview this summer that he would have stayed for Riga/Powell though. ;-)
Im not trying to be bitter, just my personal view.
Was Gus Poyet a mercenary as a player? I wouldn't have said so.
Well not in an extreme way but he certainly joined Chelsea because they paid more money this his previous club & i would say the whole Brighton manager situation was very mercenary.
So no, i was not saying Gus was worse then any other footballer in the world, just that Diego has spent his entire life around that side of the game, so i doubt after becoming such hot property, he would have signed up with us longer term.
I really hope i owe him an apology though & he signs a new deal, as im not looking to twist an agenda, just my personal thoughts on the matter.
Scott Parker signing for Chelsea sent his career into a well rewarded cul-de-sac, which ultimately did his career no good. I trust Diego Poyet would not make the same mistake.
It's all about the next stage in his development. Would be in Chelsea's or whoevers development squad but has already proved he can cut it at Championship level and IMHO therefore needs championship games. Loan back to us would be least disruptive to his life and provide an environment that needs little or no adjustment. I think he was always departing and a loan back would be the best we can hope for.
He has said nothing that is poor, as far as I'm aware.
It's people adding up 2+2 and making it total 67, that's the problem, unless you can prove otherwise.
2 + 2 = 4. What do I win?
Your reward is to explain this, to the others misguided folk, who hang on every word Poyet tweets and analyse it to death, making all sort of weird assumptions, that are patently untrue.
I don't want Diego back on loan if he leaves he leaves. Why should we have him on loan for another teams benefit Jordan cousins goes back centre and another youngster gets a chance Diego wastes 3 years of his career in someone's u21 team like Parker. Or he signs we get a decent fee he plays first team football until he wants to go be it a week or a season hopefully A FULL SEASON.
Do you try and keep yourself logged on to CL? what a nightmare log in on a phone.
Popping out to Bromley soon (this does not mean I'm signing for Bromley). Later, I'm going up The West End (this does not mean I will be signing for Chelsea).

Not on the shirts we spelt it to.but wasn't aloud on CL to many letters so had to change it to 2. Does anyone want any shirts their in sale now only £1 .99 plus p&p.
yes, if you were serious, then we'd love some for the museum to go with our other Valley party stuff
About 100 posts, something must have happened....no
Think I will check my emails....ooh, about 100 new ones, something exciting....no! A note of every one of the new posts on here so I can read them all again.
I have to say, I don't rink the argument we have cousins to replace him works! In a 4-5-1 or 4-2-3-1 there is room for them both to start. Poyet holding cousins going box to box with an adjarevic type player in front of them.. This is all hypothetical of course..

Cousins tweeted earlier about players he saw at the training ground and didnt mention Poyet!!!!!!!!!!!! Clearly this means he is going, we are all doomed and the end of the world is indeed nigh

He never mentions Church either NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :-(
If we have skipped a bidding war to keep Dervite and Hamer I would hope that there is something in the kitty to make decent offers to Gomez and Morrison... Poyet either signs or he doesn't - don't think £notes will make q big difference to that negotiation.
Diego needs/needed security and his pathway paved, under an untried manager and a team that no-one knows what it looks like, progressing isn't easy. We could have got another year out of him under Powell/Riga and not because they are better managers but they are what he knows and loves, Powell introduced him to Professional football and trusted him and Riga played a style he likes and also trusted him. Think we've played this totally wrong, RD's spreadsheet doesn't factor in stuff like this, and it never can
How do you know all this, do you work for the club/do you know Poyet, or are you guessing?

Can you not support a team you don't play for, that are in another division?

Later, I'm going up The West End (this does not mean I will be signing for Chelsea).
