You state these figures as facts. How do you know or is it pure internet bs

Outstanding work.
Did I? Pretty sure I was fairly clear: "That said, take these numbers with a pinch of salt. Wage sources are notoriously sketchy."

The internet is full of speculative bollocks relating to the wages of individual players presented as fact. Remember when it was reported that Caicedo was on £3K a week?
How do you know he wasn't?

I would be stunned if even the madhouse that is Chelsea put Tosin on £120k a week. He'd have got a whopper of a signing on bonus (possibly installments and performance related) and I reckon he's then on about half that weekly wage.
I can see more of this happening with PSR - player goes for £0 transfer fee - 'big' club takes a risk knowing if it isn't wonderful then they can sell and the fee becomes 100% profit on the books. Say Chelsea gave him a £5m golden hello, then sell him 6 months later for £15m and pay him another £5m to terminate early. Still happy days.
I do wonder if at some point football goes the way of the US sports and there is no transfer fee. I'm sure US owners would love that, it would be the final copper nail in the pyramid but like they'd care.

You posted £87k which appears somewhat exacting. The pinch of salt is enough to de-ice all the roads in England.
He can stay there then. On to the next one.

Tweet has been deleted - what did it say?
Interesting that the journalist has deleted it!
Something along the lines of: Tosin Adarabioyo wants to stay at Chelsea and fight for his place, even if Brighton interest advances.
Deemed very unlikely he leaves in Jan. But always a chance Chelsea get heavy-handed due to PSR incentives.
Excellent!

Certainly won't be easy for them to persuade anyone to pay actual money for Disasi, that's for sure.

Tosin looking a bit weary on the left
It could be Tosin and Disasi at the back for them against Wolves unless Chabolah comes straight in. Their other centre backs seem to be ruled out.

This. He was a bit better towards the end, but was always a bit exposed without Palhinha in front of him. Having been at Citeh previously, he always thought he was too good for Fulham. The move across SW6 was no surprise. Expect no loyalty because he'llbelooking for his next move, but he can do a job as a RB.
