Hi Ed, you've mentioned CFC may "sacrifice" Oscar a couple of times now - I know you don't like to get involved in questions on money, but to be clear is the "sacrifice" one of having to raise sufficient funds for other recruitment, or is it more about making space in the squad?
Seems an odd one either way, wasn't long ago he was Jose's golden boy before he went sleepy-byes for half a season again!
{Ed002's Note - All clubs need to balance the books and players are simply transient employees. Chelsea are not in a position where money is a particular issue right now but squad is, the number of non home grown players is, game time for players is etc.. It is simply business as usual.}

Mourinho just came out and said He expects Oscar to have a big year next year. The rest will do him well.

I have just watched the CFC goal of the season candidates and they reminded me just how good Oscar can be on his day.

Problem is that there are many more bad days for him than good ines

If homegrown is an issue go all out for Pogba is what I say. We should sell Mikel, Ramires, Oscar and buy isco as well. Then just buy Griezman(or homegrown bale?) and Varane. Would be a massive improvement to our team!

Many more bad days?.

Pogba isn't homegrown spearce although I would be more excited about signing him over anyone else in the world. Also don't really understand Isco. Pretty much all of our forwards can play behind the striker as well as fabregas and pogba/koke.

Pogba will be classed as home grown owing to his development at United prior to his 21st birthday.

Think Pogba isn't homegrown. Thought I read that he was a couple months short of being classed as such.
