    FIFA limit loans across borders to six in, six out.

    Chelsea already have four on loan at Strasbourg, plus two others at Dortmund and Bayern Munich.

    Fofana going to Celtic would make that seven.

    Don’t understand why it would even be a discussion unless someone can’t add up.

    It's so the payment can be stretched over the length of the contract.

    I was wrong - I had assumed Chilwell to Strasbourg was a loan but apparently it’s a permanent. Would leave one more open spot for them to loan a player out internationally.

    Still think we are seriously a midfielder short (especially a creative one), Anderson and Doherty are simply not good enough for Champ
    Really Doc was excellent at Bristol , MOM v Leicester and Played well at QPR

    No one "played well" vs QPR, Colin.

    Been talking to my son about the "good old days" when there were no transfer windows & you could sign players whenever you wanted. The only deadline was the 3rd Thursday in March. After that no more signings could he made that season. I remember we signed Bradley Allen around that time in '96 or '97.

    Anyone think thats a better way of doing it ?
    The current transfer window structure was meant to curb clubs spending stupid money. Liverpool just spent £400m+

    Is that as much as Wrexham spent?

    True Charlton style to end it feeling disappointed! Wonder whether we’ve been guzzumpted by someone paying more wages, or just run out of time?

    Will be interesting to see if Fofana goes anywhere

    Not a bad squad option, but think we really needed a creative midfielder, we simply arent creating enough chances

    Nothing from those who reported it about it collapsing yet. Suppose it’s possible Rich hasn’t been told.

    Sky Sports on Celtic:

    They made a loan approach for Chelsea’s David Datro Fofana but he has turned them down and agreed a deal with Charlton – although they may be struggling to complete that in time.
  • Could Fofana still happen?
    It's happened , it said so on Sky, or to quote another well known anecdote...WIOTOS.

    Is guzzumpted the word or guzzumpt? 
    Both look like made up language

    People are digging out a reporter for repeating what he's been told? Seriously? That's literally his job.

    I find the state some people work themselves up into about all this stuff is all a bit desperate. Get some perspective.

    Listening to the Guardian football weekly, their net spend though was in the £200 m's as they recouped through sales and if taken over 2 seasons its around £100m's per season, so not quite as high

    Would think it's not happening seeing as its now 10pm. Although confirmation from the club either way would be useful 🙄

    Just a hunch but I wonder if there were so many deals sent at the last seconds that they didn’t all go through and they have to decide on an individual basis as to whether they were sent on time.

    Chelsea have only just announced Jackson to Bayern so could be that they have some stuff to get through still or they were too busy getting that over the line to worry about Fofana's move.
