Constantly at the STD clinic.
Scenario 1 - Complete and utter refusal to leave until the club repays the money they basically scammed from you. Don't give a feck about the blatant media blackmail, threats and so forth until you get what you are owed.

Scenario 2 - Accept that you got scammed and be forced out without a fight because you are scared of being disliked.

Scenario 3 - Be so desperate to stay that you accept you got scammed and accept a new contract that is even more of a scam.

I'd say the stand that he is taking is the only one that isn't being a '**** beta ****' as you so delicately put it.
beta **** spotted. You clearly need some Andrew Tate subscription. @The Corinthian is probably on a mega program of some sort so you could get a referral code!

“Frenkie’s partner is desperate to continue living in Barcelona”

then stay there then. Why are football players so whipped?!
Safe of being weirdo, you will give a pretty big importance to where your spouse wants to live.

- United would sell Bailly tomorrow but the offers are around £2m or a loan with no buy option/low loan fee.
- Can't loan or sell Brandon Williams because his salary is beyond the reach of clubs outside of European competition. United valued him at £20m and tried to sell him last summer.
Unsurprising. We’ve probably got half the bench and the rest of the squad that doesn’t make the match day team up for sale but we can’t get rid because of our ridiculous salaries.

I can only assume the words “beta **** ****” and calling de Jong “whipped” for taking the words of his fiancé into consideration are ironic, right?

Likewise, you will give a pretty big importance in your spouses career.
Of course but De Jong chose to be in Barcelona for his career and the one thing that we know is that he wants to play for Barcelona. We are not talking about someone that wants out of Barcelona.

If you guys keep saying this, do you think that you might start believing we've had a worse window than you? I don't think so.

As for getting "cucked" (and I don't think that means what you think it means, i know my porn searches), if you aim for the stars sometimes you miss. If you go for the likes of Arnautavic then of course you get a free run.
Not sure we were cucked with Arnautovic rather than cause a shitstorm so severe that we have to walk away.
I don’t rate Chelsea’s window at all, I’m not too shy to admit it. It’s the opposite of Ten Hags not buying anyone for the sake of it and only if they fit in so it’ll be fascinating to see what happens.

Chelsea (the saviours of football) fan.

If we are changing "cucked" to mean foiled in a transfer attempt, Ten Hag was cucked by the Man United fans, right? All the reports were that you decided not follow up interest after fan backlash.

Or was he not a Ten Hag choice (i dont know, seems outrageous that the club would try to sign him otherwise)?

Chelsea aren't buying anyone just for the sake of it. We've replaced Rudiger with Koulibaly, Alonso with Cucurella, Werner with Sterling and are atttempting to replace Christensen with Fofana and Lukaku with Aubameyang.

He’s no interest coming here and neither does Rabiot by the sounds of things.

In case you missed the news, his career in Barcelona is not working out and his team is basically calling him a fraud, because he (rightfully) won't negotiate a new contract. This means he may decide to leave Barcelona, and it's a serious reason. If Mikky's stance is that Frenkie should put up with a team that mistreats him like that because she likes living in Barcelona, that is disrespectful, and not what you expect of a spouse.

So he has beaten them both a couple of times? So has Ole. Ole also beat him in a one off important Champions League tie with a worse team. Also as @romufc rightly points out he has not even achieved the things you claim he has.

Has he ever finished above either of them in the league? I would be willing to make any bet you want that he will not finish above either this season no matter what signings he makes. I will give you 2 to 1 odds.
Your comparison to Tuchel winning the CL against City in the final is that under Ole we shithoused a win against PSG…I honestly don’t know what to say. One got the biggest trophy out there, the other won an R16 game.
As for the league question, they’ve only been in the PL together with sides of similar strength and Tuchel has only been at Chelsea one full season so obviously the answer is no.

@romufc my bad, mixed up the penalty shootout winners.

Klopp vs TuchelPep vs Tuchel
PLL (0-1), D (1-1), D (2-2)L (1-2), W (1-0), D (1-1), W (1-0)
Domestic CupsWW (both D with peno wins)L (FA 0-1)
European compsNAL (CL 0-1)

So versus Klopp, Tuchel has a favourable head to head PL record and worse domestic, marginally worse versus Pep but better in all the cups. Obviously points totals are what counts in the league but people forget Chelsea were 1st last season and then came the controversy of making them play but allowing other teams to postpone with covid/injuries and they nosedived through Dec/Jan winning 4 of 11 games.

I will take you up on your offer all day long, I think he will finish above one of them if those three players arrive.

I didn't miss a thing. None of that tells you anything about what he wants and how he wants to do it.

Lowering your wages is insanely risky for a 25 world class player. You could easily hit a career cold spot or injury and get your next salary absolutely axed. There's zero reason to voluntarily ever agree to take less money from a signed agreement. I wholeheartedly agree with not budging on anything if I were FDJ...

Do you speak English mate? I said he "may decide to leave", which is a fair assumption based on the news that are coming out.
If he doesn't want to leave as you assured us, why is he not renewing with less wages?

First, watch the way you talk to people. And if you understood english you would have known that may decide to leave means that a decision has to be made which as said previously will include more than himself.

As for your question, in order to stay he doesn't to extend his contract, he can stay until 2026 with that same contract. It's his decision.

So what’s the new story - it’s not about money and CL but his missis is not letting him go, because sunny Barcelona is so charming.
Figures.
