Does the board actually want to get relegated? They better have something up their sleeves for the January transfer window. Enjoy the vacation Mou, too bad this project didn't become what it could have.

What a goal by Willian, and what is this are we trying to score a goal while one up? I can't believe it.

---------------Begovic----------------- Azpi---- Zouma---- Cahill ---Baba -------- RLC----------- Matic-------- Willian ------Hazard ------ Kenedy --------------- Remy------------------- Hoping the downward spiral ends this saturday.

If that is the case then I wouldn't respect any of those players ever again, its would be pitiful. Not sure on the numbers but they would have to pay him out his full contract value, unless there is some kind of agreement based on performance, 30 mil sounds close enough though.

Our best player's started the season burnt out. How can we be talking of burning out 10 weeks into the season? Yes, the last two seasons saw clear performance issue probably because of over playing but not this early into the season. If players are burnt out already then they should really look into a new career.

He's our star player, with the reputation of being a world class footballer and he's getting paid top player money... Hazard does not have the luxury of not wanting to take penalties, what a fucking joke. He should be ashamed of not wanting to take a penalty.

There is nothing anyone can do per se. All our best (paid) players are losing it. I am behind Mou here. Last season hazard dropping form alone would drag the team down. Now we have Ivanovic, Terry, Hazard and fabregas playing the worst football of their careers. Matic and Costa are also in terrible form. There is no tactical fix for this.

---------------Begovic------------------ Azpi---Zouma --- Cahill --- Baba--- ---------- Ramires -- RLC------------- Kenedy ----- Willian ----- Hazard--- -----------------Remy-------------------

The most important players in last seasons' successes are receiving the worst ratings, and rightfully so. There is nothing any manager in football is going to be able to do with this team until out best players find their mojo.

Gaitan is a wizard, a magical player. I don't see this being a pivotal signing, a waste of transfer window time IMHO.

You are a miserable little cretin.

I hate to see the Samsung sponsor go, but I can't be the only one that like's these shirts. This last kit (2014-2015) was garbo, 2013-2014 was one of the nicest Chelsea kits ever so its hard to follow up on that one. I for one like the new shirts and actually kind of like the Yokohama sponsor (not as much as SAMSUNG).

The players could show up to this one hungover and I wouldn't give a shit. Champions!

This is true. It's like the doors of a train were just closing shut and Chelsea slipped right through in the nick of time. FFP creates a big financial gap between the historic clubs that cannot be easily leaped across. I'm not worried about competition however, the emergence of super clubs should be something people encourage.

Don't believe everything you read.

He's either going to be good enough to play for us or he's not going to be good enough to play for us.

Out: Mikel, Ramires, Oscar, Cuadrado, Luis In: Schneiderlin, Khedira, Kovacic, Griezmann, Leftback My interest in Pogba is dwindling, the fee will be far too extravagant. Last time I posted my ins and outs he would have been the No1 target. Similar thinking revolving around Koke We need to stop Kovacic from becoming either a premier league opponent or a Barcelona player. I've seen enough from Cuadrado, I think we'll be better off not giving him 'time' next season. Very poorly rounded player I'm confused how he ever came on Mourinho's radar, Mourinho is pretty predictable in his preference of versatility over polarized players. Khedira is an easy decision; big German > big Nigerian. I'm not sure what the market is looking like for leftbacks... Coentrao is a massive risk, more likely than not a bad decision. He's a really talented well rounded leftback don't get me wrong, but also one of the most injury prone players I've ever seen. I think we could really improve our ball movement while still maintaining (if not improving) the same level of defensive solidity with these changes.

Those push United into being troubling title contenders with, they really just need a solid CB and CM and they will be seriously fighting for the title next season.

If you focus on their technical football performance they perform badly 100% of the time. They may do enough to play a key role for the team that is asked of them; but always leave a lot of to be asked of in terms of their technical skill.

Nobody ever knows how players like this will see out their career, a great piece of business from the club nonetheless.

Great player but when you look at the price tag and wages he'll need, he doesn't have much value to him at all.

Coentrao is an amazing player when he's fit. Too bad he is never fit, no thanks too injury prone.

For a club with ambitions like our own, this isn't a summer to be frugal. The entire premier league is going to have more funds at their disposal from this point forward. I can assure you both Manchester clubs are going to have massive transfer windows coming up. I have a lot of faith in RLC, Bamford, Solanke and Baker not as much in the others and I don't expect an impact next season from any of the youngsters. The critical issue is having 3 enforcers for the tournament style setups that Mourinhio confides in. Matic-Mikel-Ramires doesn't cut it.

My perfect window considering players who are likely available this summer, also considering our English and European rivals that want these targets would be. We would be more versatile and injury proof. I haven't really got into our goalkeeper situation in this. I also don't know what to say about Luis. INS: Pogba - Cannot stress enough that this is an opportunity we need to take. Expensive but the youth and trajectory of our current squad will attract young stars like this. Kovacic - I'd rather for for Mateo Kovacic than Koke. He may end up being less expensive and we have players that Italian league teams want. Versatile and electric players, I would predict instant symbiotic play with Hazard. Schneiderlin - Mourinho could use this type of player, it's what he knows best. Mourinho has lacked a watertight trivote and he needs three exceptional enforcers to play that way. I think he's good enough. Stones - Get him now before it's too late Griezmann - I would only encourage a Griezmann transfer if at least Remy is transferred away and also Cuadrado, Griezmann would make both these players obsolete. OUTS: Mikel - For the job he is asked to do, there is no end tot he list of players that can do it better than he. Ramires - Although the game plan much of the time is not have the majority of possession, the goal is a controlled surrender of possession. Ramires just uncontrollably loses possesion, provides too many moments of panic. Oscar - These transfers just won't happen without an exit from Oscar. His mid-season drops in performance seems to be habit. He hasn't really done anything wrong to really insist on his exit, he has however not done enough to make him indispensable. Remy/Cuadrado - They would just make the locker room too crowded if my proposed transfers were actually in the team.

Real Madrid or Barcelona will land Reus, you can quote me on that.
