Chelsea let Kalou and Bosingwa go.

"Kalou, 26, signed from Feyenoord in 2006 for around £8m. Bosingwa, 29, was a £16.2m signing from Porto in 2008.

Bosingwa, who made 127 appearances for Chelsea, had a one-year option on his contract at Stamford Bridge but the club have opted not to take it up."

So - rather than take up the 1-year option on Bosingwa and try to sell him and recoup some of their money, they just wave bye bye.

Maybe his wages are so high that it makes economic sense to do it that way.

Maybe they think no one would buy him - i.e. a £16m investment depreciates to zilch.

Easy come, easy go. Pay £16m - presumably way over the odds - and wave it all bye bye.

Different world.

Madness regarding Bosingwa... even if they utilised the option, they could still easily get £5m+ back for him, maybe even close to £10m!

A club with a care-taker manager as well

Who actually made that decision? Di Matteo ? The 'next' manager?
