Good move for them.

I hope this is the year that he is, the standout player in the Prem. He has the ability, but he needs to show it on a consistent basis.

It's our time turn to set the Prem alight. Let's get a decent win tomo, and end the first week of games on top.

Me too. Cech leaving is becoming more and more likely by the day.

Yep. We shall know soon enough.

I think MVG will stay. I can only see Mikel going, but there is little interest in him ATM.

Moses has gone to Stoke. I don't see Salah leaving. Mikel is the most likely departure.

I hope he ain't going to Utd.

Daily Express.

Benatia by quite a bit.

Roma's sporting director has travelled to London to discuss 27-year-old Mehdi Benatia's potential £30m transfer to Chelsea. I hope it's true!

He's gone to Stoke then. That came out of nowhere, but I guess they got him as the Assaidi deal fell through.

I am not talking about a massive spree, but improvements. If Mourinho could do what he wanted; I am sure he would be after another world class CF, CM, and CB.Cavani, Pogba & Benatia come to mind. Certain players we have in our squad wouldn't have been present in his first spell.

Exactly. I guess the fact he is in the final year of his contract has something to do with it, and his wages will make the overall fee higher aswell.

If the reports are true, and he is available for £8m; we should go all out to get him.

Really looking forward to the start of the season. I am intrigued to see what line up Mourinho will field on Monday.

I guess the extent of his injury still hasn't been announced yet?

It not at all. If Costa gets injured, what happens then? If we sell Cech, what happens then? You have to be prepared for the worst scenario. You clearly aren't!

Having watch RvW since his Utrecht, he offered more than Pelle. As I said before, Pelle is a decent CF, but he won't set the Prem alight.

He should have done much better in the Prem, but it didn't work out for him.Hopefully, his move to France will reignite him.

Van Wolfswinkel. I have no doubt he will get a few goals, but won't be anything special IMO.

Alfonso Alves & Van Wolf?This discussion could end with both of us naming a list as long as our arms. Some fail, some succeed.

He played in the Dutch league. He was a flop at Parma aswell.Kuyt is one of a few players to score over 100 in Holland. He didn't light the Prem with his goal exploits did he?

I bet if this was when he was first at the club, he would have gone on a spending spree. FFP has put an end to that to a certain extent.

I personally think he will leave PSG, and they will get ADM. About two weeks left for this to happen.
