Actually that's what i'm expecting. That's what you get for not acting faster. We waited and waited and low balled and now Pjanic is going to Juve and Roma won't lose another midfielder. Much like on the pitch we're too soft in our approach.

Pjanic to Juve seems like a done deal.

I don't even know who could we replace Costa with. He has his limitations but anyone else we could target as his replacement would be a step down for me. And Lewa is not coming here, so just keep Diego happy.

^ Is Lewandowski coming then?

Hat-trick vs Mk Dons It's an unpopular opinion but I wouldn't mind keep him for depth, would be quite useful in cup games and against the bottom 3 in the league.

^ That's not even fair

All the players I wished for are getting signed by someone else. With the exceptions of Radja and maybe Kante.

A Belgian that knows how to talk to the press!!! Such a rare sight.

Just do it already, please.

No, I'm not saying we can't sign players on the level of Shaw/Herrera whoever else you mentioned in your previous post. Just not players on the Di Maria level, the examples is completely wrong, even if I agree with the sentiment.

Yes, I also think he's not done with the defence, interesting to see who they'll get to partner up with Bailly/Smalling. Won't be surprised if they sign one of Marquinhos or Mustafi to be honest. If (if ) we get our targets and they get theirs for defence and midfield it won't be far from our matches of old against them, absolute classics. Only José on the wrong bench this time... I would love Darmian here, but i'm biased regarding that.

Di Maria example is overused and pretty much misleading. Real really wanted to get rid, PSG couldn't spend and United were the only ones ready to pay the transfer fee. On top of that we're not United.

Bailly is going to be a fantastic CB. It's nailed on. With José's tutelage even more so. Hopefully we sign Koulibaly now we can't do the Rudiger mistake anymore. (and try to bid for Marquinhos ffs)

Get Fabinho for RB but we seriously should look at our LB. We have a more than decent rb in Azpi.

She looks her age and she is too short for my taste Definitely not an absolute beauty.

Ayew was the new Messi against our defence. Just saying.

Sorry for him, but honestly we have dodged a bullet.

Eva Carneiro Chelsea Football Club is pleased to announce that it has reached an agreement with Dr Carneiro which brings her employment tribunal proceedings against the club and Jose Mourinho to an end. The club regrets the circumstances which led to Dr Carneiro leaving the club and apologises unreservedly to her and her family for the distress caused. We wish to place on record that in running onto the pitch Dr Carneiro was following both the rules of the game and fulfilling her responsibility to the players as a doctor, putting their safety first. Dr Carneiro has always put the interests of the club's players first. Dr Carneiro is a highly competent and professional sports doctor. She was a valued member of the club’s medical team and we wish her every success in her future career. Jose Mourinho also thanks Dr Carneiro for the excellent and dedicated support she provided as First Team Doctor and he wishes her a successful career. And that's the most important part, "to an end." Bad publicity brought from a nonsensical case limited as much as the club could. All other is PR talk.

Good. Hope we never hear of her anymore

It's never black and white, there are a myriad of circumstances for which we offered them to settle and they rejected it. Nothing is really clear even if there are pictures and videos of the events. Even if they don't have a strong case they'll try to milk it as much as they can (and in apocryphal events such as this it can go either way, again depends which lawyer is able to throw more bullshit in the air. Sadly it works like that.) Possibly Chelsea re throwing money at them just so the case will disappear as it is bad publicity anyway, especially if they throw in that "women rights" bollocks.

Really ? "lip reader" ? That what people are using as an excuse to punish Mourinho ? So why did Fearn did not protest as much as Dr. Carneiro? We can both play this game. Did they though? That's highly debatable. Were they though? Again impossible to say without knowing the full extent of everything. But is clearly quite impossible to see reason when there is a bias against someone It's not a strong case. Any half decent lawyer can and will turn it around any way he wants and come out on top. It all depends from how much bullshit you can utter all while retaining a somewhat serious expression.

Getting tired of this. Do it already or don't.

People bring on the table "lip-reading" """experts""" to understand what Mourinho said. I would bring on the table the quite "bitchy" expression Dr. Carneiro had assumed when walking back towards the bench. Isn't it at all possible the fact that José didn't embrace having HER sitting on the bench for the time being, acknowledging the lack of professional understanding between him and her? (He can do that, so why shouldn't he when there is no professionalism) As he said, and he is quite right, even the doctors need to have a general understanding of what's going on around them. And in this case (should this be the case) Dr. Fearn was made the unsuspecting "victim" of this "incident" so as not to have any "sexual" preference amongst the two? Eventually they would have returned to their former role, Carneiro did not want to, not prior to the club's agreement to a substantial a pay-rise. We don't know what went on behind the scenes, so it's quite childish to blindly point the finger without having the full facts.

If anyone has watched Italy yesterday and saw Zaza and Immobile's movements and understanding between them, then they should know we're in for a treat. Costa-Morata will be deadly.
