Just came across Chelsea's "Outs" this past transfer window. Here's the list:
Jamal Blackman - Wycombe, loan
Clearly part of their business plan. Not a bad idea but it's a bit of a pisstake. The defender for Sunderland who set up Kane last week played like ten minutes for Chelsea yet they sold him on for 8m!
Anyway, this deal in particular.. Jamal Blackman is a goalie, just last year he was told he wasn't good enough for Chelsea and would never play for them - fair enough you'd think - go out on loan to Wycombe and gain some experience before finding a club somewhere down the ladder.
However, did you know he is earning more per week than Tom Heaton of Burnley? That's England's 3rd/4th choice goalie. It was in the papers a few weeks back. No doubt all covered by Chelsea. Bizarre system they've got.
