Hadn't read that article before I posted. Everything I read was much worse, that it's a massive bust up and he'll be gone. Even if it isn't, any disruption is more than welcome.

They'll probably get £100m for him or something daft.

Chelsea have spent a total of £31.4m on getting rid of Jose Mourinho and his staff since 2007.

‘The Special One’ and co were paid £8.3m when he was sacked in December 2015, compared to the £23.1m he and his staff received in 2007.

Chelsea’s accounts for the 2015-16 season reveal that despite a record turnover of £329.1m and a £49m profit on player trading, the fallen Premier League champions still managed to post a £70.6m loss.

Among the other details revealed in Chelsea's accounts are that owner Roman Abramovich continues to pour money into the club, about £90m over the last two years as well as £1m a season for his luxury box.

Chelsea also added 104 new staff, taking the total employed to 785, although the wage bill remained relatively flat at £222m.

And there were some large payments that came just after the June 30 cut-off for this accounting period, including an initial £96.3m investment in Marcos Alonso, Michy Batshuayi, N'Golo Kante and David Luiz.

But perhaps the most notable expense not included in this set of accounts is the £5m settlement reached with former first-team doctor Eva Carneiro.

Great money if they can get it - he does a job but is no Messi/Suarez/Ronaldo.

Great money if they can get it - he does a job but is no Messi/Suarez/Ronaldo.

If they got £60m to £80m for him it would be great money, let alone that reported £130m figure
