Eden Hazard revealing who he's joining after Lille match

I think Roman is right to strengthen like this now, if they didn't then they could be in danger of missing out on the top 4 again without having the CL to get qualification that way.

Hulk isn't a signing I'd make though, if he does go to Chelsea.

Apparently going to receive 110k p/w.

According to?

So it has gone from 170k down to 110k.

pfft that's like nothing at all, I thought he was going to get 170k p/w

I read 100k post tax, which is 150k pre-tax.

I thought he was going to come to Bury after ESPN's tweet.

What happened to 50% tax?

Nothing, I am just an idiot who can't do maths.

That means he's on 200k a week if he's getting 100k post tax, obviously.

No it probably will be about 170k p/w, 50% tax only applies on earnings above a certain amount I think. Up till then he will still get taxed a fair bit on it, but not 50%.

Hazards wages are bigger than your transfer budget. Same with us really.

I swear it's like 70k+ a year that gets 50% tax, so that would only be a tiny tiny portion of his wages is safe from it.

Btw this is where I read 100k post tax, just so I'm not a no-source-providing-phaggot.

Ohhh shit yeah I was thinking yearly, it's mind blowing he earns 170k in a week.

Even wealthy people only get a small no tax allowance. Like the first £70k is 20% and that's for the year. From what I have read.

Imagine if he flops I don't think he will though, looking forward to see him in the Premier league.

Yeah after 100k income a year you pay 50%, so he'll be earning like around 85k if that were true

He is a great player but there's obviously the chance of him flopping. Look at Torres who was already established in the PL.

its not impossible to play with 2 number 10s

play christmas tree formation

would be stupid though

i get feeling that people are making stories i dont see how they would strip mata jersey and give it to hazard like that...sure they do it to benayoun but come on thats benayoun

Chelsea

Spent £35 million on Hazard when they could have bought Carroll

He chose Chelsea huh? That's so fucking perfect.

There is a God.

I'm glad he joined Chelsea. An ass like him deserves to join a club like Chelsea.

Agreed, scummy and disrespectful player going to a scummy and disrespectful club

Along with Marin, Chelsea have a bit of depth going forward now

The fuck? Lol no. Him going to Chelsea instead of the Manchester clubs is exactly what all the clubs not named Manchester would want. Chelsea..the non threat compared to other clubs.

I agree. If he had gone to either Manchester club it would just be even more a 2 team league.
