We shouldn't be losing out to a pensioners club with no European football

In other words: "Chelsea never wanted to sign Witsel but their name was thrown into the mix to raise the price and get clicks for sports websites"

A lot of people on here rate Witsel highly, but you look at his career.. Zenit and now AC Milan? He can't be as good as what people believe on here then.

Went for the money originally (Garay, Hulk as well), but the Milan deal isn't official, is it?

The Zenit move I get is money, but Milan? Yeah it's not official, but there's a lot of talk that seems to validate it. If that transpires then you've got to ask, where's the giants chasing him?

He's gone downhill since he left Benfica. However, I'm personally surprised more clubs aren't after him for £18-20m.

That's why I doubted people when they said he's the best in his position in the world.. Particularly when he's applying his trade in Russia.

Anyway, interesting to see what happens with MvG now.

He's far from the best in his position now, but he was promising along to several other Belgian players.

I doubt MvG has a future with us. Wouldn't be surprised if we cashed in this summer.

Seems like all of the "good" tier CM's are being snatched up one by one. Kondogbia, Witsel, Imbula and Schneiderlin very soon.

Unless we get a world class player like Pogba, at this rate there won't be anyone of quality left and we'll be stuck with Mikel for another season.

Ah I see. How old is Witsel now, you think he can back a come back at Milan?

He's 26. I think it's a good move for him, as Milan are aiming to rebuild like their city rivals after a few disappointing seasons. I can see him improving in a better league, but I doubt he'll get the big move he was once destined for.

fuck sake, you can just tell we're going to get Alex Song...

I think someone like Schneiderlin should be the absolute minimum level we should bring in, but sadly I think you're right...

Blimey, just when I read this I looked on Twitter and there were quotes from Schneiderlin that he hopes to sort his move out by the end of next week.

Kondogbia, Imbula, Witsel, Schneiderlin down ?

But there's still Pogba & Vidal to go for. And lots of cash and makeweight players to make something happen.
