What was Mata like when he first came to Chelsea... A Real Madrid reject, with some good performances for Valencia. I can't stand people writing or dismissing players before they have even kicked a ball for their new club. Also, don't get me started with Iturbe. He couldn't even get a game for Porto, and is more a project than anything else.

I agree mate, but playing time could swing it. He will all but be a starter for Liverpool, which isn't the case at Chelsea.

Just looking at Footyupdate Twitter account, and they only has nine followers. Can't believe someone posted the rumour.

I am aware mate, but crazier things have happened. Look at Willian going to Tottenham. Everything was done expect for signing a contract. This is the same as the current situation.

Not sure who are the people who don't want him here? People think he is a replacement for Mata. They need to wake up and see that isn't the case. If Chelsea have done a Tottenham, they will never live it down.

I hope that isn't true, as it really will be a shock for several reasons.

Two of the three I agree with, but Willian doesn't IMO. Also, Griezmann is a good player, but he hasn't performed in the CL for a better team than Basel.

They aren't even that at the moment. LOL!

I doubt that tweet has any truth to it. No doubt they are just trying to stir the pot.

Not sure why people are talking about the number 10 shirt, as Hazard won't be getting it till the summer at the earliest if he does. Salah is more likely to get the number 10 shirt at this moment in time in comparison to Hazard's chances. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

Shows Tottenham fans are clueless.

Not sure why religion keeps coming up. It is a game of football, and not politics. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

Thats why I said 'questionable'. But buying a 21 year old AM will take away the little chance they have on the team. He isn't really a AM, but an out and out winger, or he can even play behind a striker.

I totally agree with this. I believe Piazon should be given the chance, he is arguably the best player in eredivise which is a better league than the the swiss. Then again, if any of traore, piazon and atsu would do a better job at the right wing is also questionable None of them would do a better job as that ain't their position. They need to play where they perform best. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

For me, Piazon could shine. Doing great at Vitesse, but we all know the Dutch league isn't up to much nowadays. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

Have you seen/know Shaqiri? It is almost the same career paths, but Salah came from Egypt.

He is one of the top youngsters in Europe, with an eye for goal. For £11-16m, he is a steal IMO.

Says enough.

Ghana got to the WC quarters and should have reached the semis. I ain't going to continue this as it is pointless. Watching 6 games from his entire career doesn't give an insight as to what type of player he is.

Ghana an average country?! I have a feeling you have only seen his European games and that's it. Also, he is in a different league compared to Marin.

He did, so not sure what you are talking about. LOL!

Only impressed against Chelsea... Wake up please. Just look at this international record of starters. He HAS proven himself on the World stage.

He has just described Walcott and not Salah. LOL!

Aboutrika is now retired. Salah is the shining light for the Egyptian NT ATM, but more will follow his footsteps.

He isn't better than him now, but he has the potential to be.
