I mean, at the time that shlt all went down some of us noted that we'd better be ready, because he was going to do the same thing to us in a couple of years. It's not as if we were ever going to be more than a stepping-stone for Fofana, but it's an everybody wins situation. We get a great player for a couple of seasons and make a lot of money, he uses us to get where he really wants to go. I just think the club would prefer it happens next summer, not now.
RowlattsFox Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 If its a choice between selling Fofana or Maddison, I think I'd probably sway towards Fofana. I'd probably trust us to sign a centre back replacement rather than a Maddison replacement (lets pretend Vestergaard never happened )
Fox92 Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 Do people actually look at what footballers are doing on social media Means nothing. Player A likes a tweet. Bloody hell. 1
Number 6 Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 He definitely loves the attention and a little wind up on social media. I don't see this as a sign that he's off at all, but he is stoking the flames. 1

Foxxed Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 I just woke from a nightmare where I'd got so old that I spent my working hours and free time discussing the social media activity of young, rich men. 1 3
Phenom Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 Are you all surprised that Wes would want to leave to a large club? I think that’s been his goal since he got here. Remember, there was Madrid talk since he got here. Yes, losing him to a PL rival would suck but if we’re getting a historic fee then I would be for it. He could raise his value in one season (although if we get the fee we should get that might be negligible) but he’s also got a bit an injury history and it could also go the other way so I could see why we would see. Either way, we hold the cards.
Number 6 Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 The Madders situation has the downside for us in terms of contract expiry being on the horizon - so if we don't think he will sign it then we might be willing to listen to offers. Wes is on a massive contract and his stock is only rising. The club has shown itself to not be mugs and I can't see us being so here when we are in such a strong position.
4everfox Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 He's on a long contract so we could just say no to selling him. What's he going to do? Sulk his career away for the duration of his contract? We hold all the cards, he ain't going anywhere. 3

Sharpe's Fox Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 I'm not going to get pissy about this. He did the same when we were in for him at St. Ettienne. Difference is, he signed a long term deal months ago. He's not so much in the driving seat as at the back of a very long, articulated bus. 2

Jabfox Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 Does anyone have him on Snapchat? such a tease man 😂 1
TMELcfc Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 2 weeks ago, I was in the position where I was confident he would stay this year, but it would be his last. Now I am 50/50, gut is telling me he may start to force a move over the next 48 hours. 1

HybridFox Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 Seems like the media are conveniently forgetting all the Leicester posts he's been liking and sharing recently too

Dames Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 Not one to make much of a fuss of a player changing their social media bios as they are usually ran by junior marketers anyway but isn't this how his move to us started? I wouldn't be surprised to see him go in all honesty, I thought the big clubs might have held off for another year to see how he kept going after his recovery before outlaying such a large fee but it seems Chelsea might be quite desperate.

Bloody hell. It’s not good PR though is it, at a time when you’re linked to a move and the club is in a bit of a mess, removing the club you play for from your bio. Posting My father told me you're going to annoy a lot of people when you start doing what's best for you, and I've begun to realise it" Wesley Fofana quoting on instagram Liking Chelsea players, liking Chelsea posts. Players could never say these things if they were asked about a potential move in an media interview, yet it’s ok to stoke the flames on social media. As other have said it’s no huge surprise, given what he done at his former club. it’s just not a good look so soon after the club offered him a new deal, he was happy to take them up on whilst recovering from the injury. Great if he gets the move, a bit short sighted on his part if he doesn’t. Edited 2 August 2022 by HankMarvin 1
