Take it easy mate. We did spent on Costa and Fabregas last year, but at the same time we also did a clever sale in Luiz and Lukaku. I believe what Mourinho refers to 'buying the league' is that club like City who just buy, buy, buy without selling. He is trying to mock Pellegrini over FFP.
Actually, I would love to see him with us. I remember Jose said something similar about him last summer, but unfortunately for him we still have Schurrle and Salah back then. Now that one has gone and one seems will be gone, I like that idea. Traore will be our AM backup. No Pedro, no problemo.
http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11668/9921570/chelsea-have-not-made-second-john-stones-offer-jose-mourinho-says What Jose said not convincing at all on that article. It looks like if Everton forced Stones to stay, he will stay and we will not gone any further. Yes about Luis he is not add anything except recognizing Azpi as the best LB.
No Witsel, no Aranguiz, Luis leaving, Jose don't want to replace him, Mikel staying. Pedro is the only one left I could see coming, depends on Barca situation. If he comes, Moses or Traore will make a way. No more.
Can we start to freak out now? Lol. It is the first match, so it is quite acceptable at the moment. Don't worry our next opponent would be eas.... holy hell it's PSG and Barca. We're doomed.
Hazard, Oscar, Willian, Cuadrado for 3 AM positions. I'm not sure. Our lady luck was with us for Hazard fitness last season. Additions of Traore (and RLC) will not make our midfield suddenly strong.
