Honest thoughts on havertz/mount leaving
Yes I know I'm a rival fan and my club snatched havertz but i'm objective on this one. sit tight cuz this is a bit of a long one.
First things first:
hate is never okay. i am seeing all sorts of diabolical shit being spoken on mount/havertz, even though the former gave 18 years at the club and havertz in his two years gave everything for the club. they were both the producers for that 2021 ucl final goal. To slander their names to the degree they are is stupid and disingenuous asf
Okay now being fr...Chelsea did you honestly think that you could drop to fucking TWELFTH and be run the way you have this season from overcrowding the dressing room to the negative gd and not lose vital players in the end...
it was bound to happen with how many mistakes were made. You shoudl've lot picked yourselves up around january, sacked potter, and got pochettino then. You should not bought half of God's green earth in january, throwing 100 million of the queens finest to hikack our deal on a flashy ukranian winger. You should've have not got brought-everton-to-relegation lampard who dragged you to bottom half.
lets not forget the barrages of abuse both players got despite being proven players who are suffering from bad form in a dysfunctional, lopsided, unbalanced team that changed starting 11s every gw after having 1832 managers 230 trillion new signings. it was the epitome of disorganized and careless, and totally understandable why they fell out of love and favor.
You can't expect 24yos entering their prime to sit tight and complacent while a team they have no guarantee of starting consistently in with all the new signings trust a project under a manager that hasn't been in the prem since 2019, that's potentially killing your career.
at the end of the day they made decisions they felt best for their own mental health and long term careers under projects in other clubs they felt they would do better in, and yeah it may have been a beat back-stabbing decision to clubs they blossomed in and made memories in trophies that defined the club's history, but this is football. it has hard, difficult decisions like this.
And yeah both mount and havertz forced moves out but that was because chelsea tried to slap massive price tags despite having 1-2 years left on their contract...you paid 0 for mount and got what you paid for leverkusen kai
tl;dr don't hate on players for looking out for themselves before your shambolic club
