It needs more than stones to displace Ivan, he is a warrior

Maybe, but only if we want to defend the Capital One Cup, lol. An experienced squad depth is still necessary to compete in 4 competitions imo.

Cahill has spoken, only a matter of time, lol.

It seems we have to suffered trophyless season before making any big signing. If you just won it, don't get your hopes up too high.

And then I will not surprised if Mikel stay and we ended up signing no other midfielder now.

If we sign another experienced LB, it could have the same fate as Luis last season and we will sell him at the same time as today next year. It is make sense to looking for someone young and potential for this position as Azpi understudy also act as a backup. Baba fits in those criteria perfectly.

With Luis leaving, for sure we will sign at least two defender. We only have JT, Cahill, Ivan, Azpi, Zouma only for four positions. Plus we seems don't have a potential youth defender to be promoted left.

oh dear, the gooners virus has infiltrated his brain instantly

Good luck for him. I rated him, but unfortunately he is never got an enough chance to prove it here.

If Stones coming, I just hoping Zouma will stay and be patient until JT retired.

Sign him up

He will get a playing times for sure. Jose will remind it every week on the phone.

The awkward moment when we discussed about Shaw and Lahm wages in Luis thread..

Only Metro reporting it, I don't like this. Also it seems Aranguiz rumour seems dead.

Yes, the freaking thing is that when Costa banned he is also injured later. If it is not a curse I don't know what it is.

Told you guys

Witsel, Pedro, Stones. The puzzle completed.

Benitez has given an enough resources at Napoli and still even failed to qualify for CL is a disgrace. Showing the true low quality of him. Good players are not the most important factors and I believe there are some more examples. Good players and good manager that bring success. There is a reason why Real fans freaking out when Benitez appointed.

Benitez down the hill after Liverpool 'glory' days over. Meanwhile Jose did a tremendous job with Inter, Real and back at Chelsea. Jose has evolve, while Benitez has devolve since then. I'm surprised if you think otherwise. Not every person develop to a better one along the time. Some gone backward.

Old Benitez yes, but current Benitez against current Jose, no chance.

Last season he is saying Moses could be an option too. And then he loaned soon after.

Benitez no match for Jose

If Jose said that we're interested and Martinez not ruled it out immediately, it means he is afraid of making Stones unhappy. If the player want the move, they will let him go in the end.

Clearly his intention to motivate the lads. We will sign couple of players regardless, especially if players like Luis or Mikel leave.

NopeRemember this? Our Jose even confirmed it http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/barcelona/9593344/Jose-Mourinho-says-Lionel-Messi-and-Cristiano-Ronaldo-are-from-another-planet-after-Barcelona-2-Real-Madrid-2.html
