What's this about Mata to PSG? Chelsea are insane if they sell him. :/
Unless it was part of a deal for Rooney at the last minute, there's no way we'll get Mata.
From the summer transfers thread:
I've never been so happy to be so wrong.![]()
Find mine where I said he wasn't wanted by Mourinho and how I wanted him at United, seeing as you're bored like![]()
I'll drive him there myself for Mata.
"Get in the ****ing van Wayne"
No, it's not about merely strengthening a team, it's about the timing of it and protecting sporting integrity. Given Chelsea don't have to play Manyoo again, but their rivals do, strengthening them at this point in a season is unfair in Wenger's eyes. He has similar, albeit different, concerns when it comes to loaning out players in the Premier League now that loanees cannot play against their own clubs - so Chelsea have used the loan system to their advantage by loaning out Lukaku, for example.
So, selling Mata now is fundamentally (and clearly!) different to selling RVP, or whoever else, in a summer window.
Should have just paid the 10 mill they wanted 3 weeks ago
When does the window shut? 1st Feb?
To be fair, Wenger is talking absolute crap in this case.Against Wenger, rather than his arguments.
Usually its 11pm the last day of the month if I remember... unfinished deals still go through days after though.
Thank you very much. Plenty of time to bring in Draxler/a striker/Messi.
I doubt we'll sign anyone and we'll start to stutter halfway through February![]()
