It is not necessary you always get success in hiring players of your choice in your first attempt, perhaps, sometimes, it can take as many as several attempts before you could finally convince other club to accept your bid. Chelsea is one such club who doesn’t easily give up on players of its choice and it holds true for United’s dissenting forward Wayne Rooney who has long been believed to leave EPL champions. If we look at some of his aspirants, Chelsea is the only club who has made two unsuccessful bids for him, yet they want to try once again to take their favorite player to Stamford Bridge.

Suarez is considering legal options to force his exit

Actually, the things have gone beyond his dimensions and that is why he has now hinted to move to court to seek arbitration on his long running dispute with Liverpool. Notably, currently, he is serving a ten matches’ suspension for his inhuman act against Chelsea player so the time needed on these legal matters would not effect on his matches’ count, but he desperately needs a third party intervention to stabilize his future either at Anfield or at Emirates Stadium. Arsenal has bade two times for the Uruguayan footballer; perhaps their second bid was smarty put on to trigger a contract clause whereby Suarez becomes entitled to initiate his transfer or hold talks with his aspiring buyers, but nothing seems to be working either for player or for Arsenal, coz Brendan Rodgers has rejected both of their … [Read more...]

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho is one such person who has always been biased towards his London club. He, in fact, had to leave the club back in 2007 citing some misunderstandings with club owners, but still he always wanted to be at Stamford Bridge.
