"He set his heart on going. You can't ask for a man who has committed more to us this season. In due course, he has to get on and we have to replace him. 

"It's not something we want. We offered him £200,000-per-week. He turned it down. He wants to go. You can't keep a player who doesn't want to be there."

I am not sure about our scouts. They appear to be scouting for players who everybody wants. Why they can't scout for protencial, very good unknown players is beyond belief

A Rabat is an interesting prospect. A total Dog. Tough as hell and determined. 

You know you’re in a football match with him when you play him. 

I’m curious why none of the other big clubs have come in for him though.

Chelsea has formed an Habit of chasing players who have too much attention on them, it’s not a crime to have such players on your team, but it shouldn’t be everytime, I miss the old days when we signed good players for less! Look at the likes of Liverpool, how much did they sign, the likes of Jota, Luis Diaz, and a lot of others, and these players are doing fine! You mustn’t chase big names everytime, most times those big names fail to live up to expectation because of their price tags and pressure to deliver on them, but when you sign players with less pressure on them, they always most times deliver.

Chelsea’s case is a matter of money without sense.

Chelsea won't think of players like Amrabat, Instead they prefer the so called 15-19 years that the media keep hyping,when they're done paying too much they're sent out as Loan,even if it cost CFC much money to Amrabat his efforts and contribution will be more than the signing,The reason I said the Sporting directors are not working in Chelsea, Something keep covering their eyes when it comes to good players,yet they'll be in cue to buy garbages that end up flopping

Everything about Chelsea is becoming so annoying since the UK government sanctions,the worst is that players are not looking back to exit as they're not even pleased with the system anymore

Please the player we should be looking to snap up by all means is Amrabat from Florentina. He will cost less than half the amount quoted for Rice or Caceido and if you have been following this guy from the WorldCup with Morocco you will know it will be an absolute steal for any club that gets him. I trust he is the right man to partner Enzo in our midfield and the guy is a complete Boss in the middle of the park. I see a move to Barcelona, Mancity or any other elite club cos it seems Chelsea only believe in squandering money. Just take the case of Akanji for 15m by City and Chelsea paying 65m for cucurella .

Hahahaha!! This is a final ploy to ask for a hefty transfer price…… the fact he’s just won you a European trophy you can come out and confirm his desire to leave…….
All for the money  No one should fall for extortion!!
