"They are sad, we are sad also. No-one here is jumping because Juan is leaving.
But would Chelsea fans be happy if we stopped a fantastic person they like a lot from being happy, and say they can only go to Russia, China, France or Portugal and cannot play in England? I don't know if Chelsea fans would be happy with that.
We believe it's the right offer and the player wants it and has asked us to accept it, so I don't know if Chelsea supporters would be happy if the Chelsea board or Chelsea manager would stop a player from being happy."
"I think this club is a special club that cares about people and is very respectful with players and especially with players that brought the history of the club, and he is one of those cases. I thought – and still think – he could be an important player for us. Of course he was a fantastic player for us. But Juan had this fantastic opportunity at another club that wants him, in the country he loves to be and loves to play, and with an offer that is right for us.
The Portuguese concluded, "So in spite of possibly many clubs, boards and managers that think you should not sell a top player to a rival club, especially in the same country, we feel differently. The player deserves respect and deserves to play and be happy, and it was the right offer for the club."
His joy however knew no bounds when Eto took part in the Make-A-Wish Foundation UK charity campaign and was told to meet him. Nathan arrived at the training ground to meet with his hero, along with parents and his elder brother.
Needless to say he had fun.
I'm sure that day would stick in his mind forever. 🙂

A synopsis of the documentary reads thus, "Fela Anikulapo Kuti created the musical movement Afrobeat and used it as a political forum to oppose the Nigerian dictatorship and advocate for the rights of oppressed people. This is the story of his life, music, and political importance."

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has expressed his opinion over Juan Mata’s move from Chelsea to Manchester United. He deems the whole transfer issue typical of The Blue’s tactics especially because Chelsea have played Manchester United twice and have to face other rivals including the Gunners.
“I am surprised because Juan Mata is a great player and Chelsea sell a great player to a direct opponent. It opens again a little bit the opportunity of this
transfer market because Chelsea had already played twice against Man United so they don’t play again. They could have sold him last week but it opens at least the opportunity [to question] the dates of this transfer window.
Some teams have already played twice against one opponent and some others not. I think if you want to respect the fairness for everybody exactly the same, that should not happen. I just think you would want that everybody is on the same level. Chelsea do not make the rules but maybe the rules should be a bit more adapted to more fairness.”
