Maybe he is fit at last?
Maybe it is to give him value if we sell - who knows.
It does seem a little mad to me though unless he is fighting fit and play full time next season

There's no way this is true (about a contract extension). I think he's a good player but he's on 55k a week and doesn't f***ing play!!! Did he go nearly two years without a game? That's 5m in wages for 0 games.

Nobody on the planet is stupid enough to extend that deal even if there's a reduction in wages.
If it is true it'll be a good indication of what to expect in the transfer window. Absolute f***ing madness.

With Ayew and Bats going back to their clubs Benteke and Wickham is not as bad as back up whilst we secure a new striker which I am sure we will do. CW can also play wide of a front 3 if I remember correctly. He has preseason to prove himself and get back into form and if not he will go on loan with view to sell in Jan to recoup some cash. Sorloth will surely go. Could Sako stay if Wilf goes as he is naturally a wide man?

We will keep those with experience as we lose upto 7 players quite easily.

Anyway, with us anything can and will happen.

CPFC needs to hire a physiologist who will explain some basics about the human body and different types. Sadly CW. Would appear to have a body with over flexible ligaments resulting in constant injuries at this level. Extending his contract when he will only get injured again is compassion boardering on cruelty although possibly with exceptional generosity. This beggars belief. It is short sighted and lacks any sort of professionalism.
Having said all that, I wish CW well. Maybe miracles still happen. SP has already delivered more than a few.

Dunno about over flexible ligaments, I think it's more likely he's made out of crate paper.

This does seem odd, but we are not wise to either a) how the physio team view his recovery, or b) what the terms are on the new deal. If the physios are saying he should be fit and ready for pre-season and we have extended his contract on lower terms then maybe the club see it as a calculated risk; after all it is only a 12 month extension. Personally I hope he does come back fit and strong (however unlikely that may be) as I still think he was showing promise before his injury.
