Wembley has no events limit as long as you shut the upper tier ie reducing capacity to 50k. Then for the biggest games we can schedule it as a major event and have the upper tiers open.

Ideally I'd like to see Schweinsteiger > Ramires. Its clear we need a backup to Cesc and this is the guy for me. Sell Ramires for £8m, buy Schweinsteiger for 10. Good business. Clyne > Luis Replacement for Iva on the RB. Azpi on LB is going nowhere imo, it's why we are only being linked with RBs instead of LBs. Ake > - LB cover, hopefully also getting a runout at DM too in cup matches. Traore > Drogba Depth in ST/WNG positions. Effectively a replacement for Drogs. Depending on the wing situation Solanke may well be in with a shout. Done. Song > Mikel We should do better at DM than we have with Mikel. To those saying he's underrated, you're overrating him. Green/Begovic > Cech New No 2. Conforms to Jose's "Strength in depth" this transfer window. One new player in Ake because we are dangerously short staffed in terms of defenders.

and Lyon.

Could use an artificial pitch or a blend.

I agree. People honestly do need to believe a little - Jose clearly does.

Jose said he'd make 2 or 3 signings. With Cech gone, one of them will be a GK. Traore off loan? Not having the Falcao rumours. I don't see it. So, 1 or 2 more players. Maybe one will be Reus, or another WC signing. Could be bench boys. I honestly think people underrate our current XI though - its only true weakness is the right side in its entirety. Reus & Clyne would be a dream.

Mikel-Witsel Oscar Vidal??

Not the best piece of business but I suppose sometimes compassion has to come over money. Especially for a guy like Cech. Not overly worried unless they get a super centreback to replace Mertesacker. And a top striker. And a top LB. 3 signings away boys. They do us for depth of squad but we certainly have the best starting XI.

Witsel - Ramires Oscar I lied, of course it could! :D

Pogba-Vidal ---Oscar Possibly the most uncreative midfield in the world...

Au contraire. Provided he can get anywhere near his Arsenal form he could rest Matic in small games. Say we play Leicester the weekend before our Barcelona away game - it'd be easier to stomach than Mikel And that would make us stronger in Europe.

How many seasons away est? Sounds like we're gonna use the 50k loophole then.

They're completely different players, I don't understand this rumour at all.

Do it. HG and better (if only slightly) than Mikel. Used to have a bit of dynamism in him too. Him, Schweinsteiger, and a top RW would be epic, because for me, Song-Bastian isn't THAT much of a downgrade on Matic-Cesc.

I loved that gold kit. Never got to get 1 tho I'm getting a home kit this season though.

Then let me remind you that Chelsea FC is a club, not a business. It has a heart and soul, a business "club" is Newcastle, where the owner puts profit before the club. If Roman ran it that way then we would now be mid table.

Nice to see the haters have wound their necks in for the day. Love the guy. 13 years of service. Happy birthday Super Frank.

20 years at the club. Sorry Hazard, but I need a Terry shirt before it's too late. The most heroic, loyal, legendary player that this club will ever see. - He's destined to be a manager of our side one day.

Yeah I suppose. It does hurt a little bit that with JT's defensive stability and leadership we would be a much, much, much stronger team! Don't really care about England anymore anyway. Full of shit liverpool players and a shit ex pool manager.

It's literally done on present form.

He still needs a world class CB pairing. I wonder what club employs one of them already........

If we get him at the expense of Remy, very negative. Remy has bailed us out so many times this season when Costa's been out and he is a class striker, he has a right to second choice for me. Injuries coinciding with Costa's was merely just that - coincidence. It won't happen again. I understand that we need a 3rd choice just in case, but if it's a true 3rd choice, then Solanke of one of our plethora of loanees could fill the hole, when they'll probably get a few cup games, a couple of 85th min subs on and that's it. Falcao is a lot of money for a player who has baggage.

Yeah, he should, especially since it looks like Jose basically wants to convert him into a CM.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha but I thought Arsenal was the biggest club in the Prem? Cesc's best position is deep, though. When he has more time on the ball he is a game changer.

Schneiderlin or even Wilshere (he's better playing from deep with England rather than the way Wenger uses him.) Would be good cover for Cesc. Witsel would be cover for Matic - but only if we can get him for <15m.
