From Chelsea's perspective, probably was always what they were looking to do. Get him for nowt, play him enough to impress someone, move him on for pure profit. They're cunts but they know what they're doing.

 

People should just be wise to it and not buy him. Let the Chelsea's of the world sit there with their massive squads and wage bills. 

 

In 3 years time when he realises he's messed up his career he either signs another contract with them deciding fuck it I'll just take the cash or goes elsewhere on a free.

TBF we seen open to doing the same thing with Lloyd Kelly :lol:

 

Main difference being, Chelsea signing Tosin when they already had about 14 CBs of similar ability, smacks of an ongoing strategy to just circumvent PSR, not make their squad better. I don't think Kelly being vaguely linked to a Turkish team is quite the same thing, I believe he was signed to enhance the squad, not as a "PSR hack". It may turn out that way though :lol:

The fact John Green, for some reason, ended up becoming an AFC Wimbledon fan - out of all possible teams for that specific guy* to end up falling for such a random club in the English league system, to the degree he's now put up the money to buy a them a new player because he wanted to watch them win more often :lol: Credit where credit's due, he's truly been living life as a devout Dons fan over the last few years :clap: 

 

*as in him having a fair few quirks whilst at the same time having had severe OCD his entire life, which in most avenues of life has led him to not really form any major attachments outside the people closest to him as his "issues", according to himself, almost without fail eventually make him sour on things he once cared for and/or liked. Committing to one specific "soccer" team for life feels very out of character for him based on his public persona :lol: Granted, we only know his public persona, he may be dealing better with things nowadays than he's willing to let on in public. Good on him, either way. Love me some John (and Hank) Green :aww:

However exciting he is now, he won't be like that in a years time after Pep has coached it out of him. This next 5 months will be interesting to see how he does.

Must be nice hopefully he’s a one season wonder.

Feels like every year a winger is getting bought from Bundesliga looking like the next big thing, then ending up like Diaby/Sancho

For such a contract length they must be confident they won't be getting a hefty points deduction to end up in The Championship 

It doesn't actually matter. The revenues won't be affected so much. They have a lot of commercial revenue as long as UAE are commited city are good.

Long contracts will become the norm for players on high salaries as it allows for amortisation and gaming PSR long-term (I think :lol: Only read bits and bobs here and there in articles about why long contracts are in vogue these days, turns out Mike Ashley was ahead of his time :anguish:

PSR only allows it to be amortised over a five year period, I think. The Premier League closed the loophole after Chelsea's shenanigans.

For PSR calculations the contract length is limited to 5 years.
