Who is going to win the premiership title.

Smaller clubs can only use players they have at their disposal. These weaker players were still in their squad list. Their ability should be irrelevant. If the club pay them then they should be able to play them. I'm not saying it's right that Chelsea should be under scrutiny. But it can't be one rule for big clubs and one for small. Either you play your strongest available line up, or your doing te same as wolves.

Terry is injured so he wont play - even if hazard is fit for the tie at the weekend i cant see mourinho risking him with atletico the weds after, maybe get a 10min cameo at the end

Certainly not, as a liverpool fan and with a lot of money riding on us taking the title I sincerely hope he plays his youth players!

As there squads so depleted and in aid of English teams in Europe maybe they can loan a couple of players for the game Sunday, we'll do without Rooney this week and de gea if they need a goalie

Why do you want to make them weaker

Maybe they can loan them Mata, he would fit nicely into the Chelsea team......

What - buy back an ex player at a vastly inflated fee - surely that would be madness. Cough (Matic) cough - good player though.Maybe they can loan them Mata, he would fit nicely into the Chelsea team......

Yeah he looks a very good player - never expected him to be so classy on the ball
He is going to be a top class player
Matic is 3 times the player he was, he would have never figured before so letting him go to develop more and then bringing him back was excellent and he fits in superbly now.

So why not loan him out if that was the masterplan? Or is it more likely that someone made a mistake letting him go and then had to pay a sizable figure to buy him back?

Part of the deal to get Luiz I think so pretty much gave him away and then paid £20 plus mil for him
When you have bottomless pockets those sort of things don't matter to them.

Ah, but every million is a million closer to passing the rich mans boredom threshold... God help the Premier League when the Toys become a burden rather than a hobby....

The clubs wouldn't be able to sustain themselves without a massive sale of players.
City and Chelsea wage bills are massive - City's especially
Think Chelsea have over 20 players out on loan as well.
Arsenal maybe criticised for not winning anything but financially they are solid ( at the moment ) but their ticket prices are through the roof
I'm glad that we aren't building a new stadium now

Who was to know how he would turn out, he may have never got any better? Hindsight as they say is a wonderful thing. Didn't Manure let youngsters like Keegan go and possibly lots of others when clubs across the country don't think someone will make the grade only for them to turn into top professionals

Didn't then spend a fortune buying them back though did they???
Of course, United could still go back in for Pogba..
Loads do it, saints fc let Kevin Phillips go as a non starter, may not have been world class but became good. Rovers gave Beattie away, to saints. Same thing, nit world class but good prem player. It happens at all levels. Defoe actually had a trial at Dover Athletic as a kid and was turned away. It's easy to pick on Chelsea, but I don't think there's a fan in the land that wouldn't have welcomed roman at their gates.

Isnt it better to admit you're wrong than stubbornly hide your head in the sand. If Matic becomes a main stay for the next 8 years. Then the 20m will be insignificant.
