City is still linked to him pretty heavily. It usually gives you an idea when more tabloids say the same thing. Our interest in him seems to have faded totally.

Sky was reporting were in for Ox a few days ago.

Oups I meant RWB and RW.

News about him died to early I guess he isn't even a target anymore.

No way is Alaba above Sandro at least in the last year or so.

Hope it's true. Not only we are getting good money for a bang average player but were screwing United. Beautiful.

For 200m we will get Sandro, Bakayoko, Lukaku and Cabayero, maybe VVD if we push it to 230 or so. Didn't Conte say we wanted 6 players? What about our LWB and LW?

The reported fee is very good and 28 years is not that old. If he give us 2-3 years of his prime it will be worth it. By the time Aubameyang declines we could buy another striker. Also if we buy him for 70m euros we have more money left to go big on a LW. We would have to pay around 110m euros for Lukaku ffs.

James is nowhere near as lazy as some say, that's if you don't think Hazard is lazy as well though. Also he is faster than our former player Mata who was our best player 2 seasons in the running. I don't think you can go wrong with buying James.

Please let it be we didn't want to pay the fee Everton want and they don't want to lower it. You can bet your house we will regret it when Aubameyang bangs them weekly for Liverpool.

We were linked to Sanchez and Mahrez before the season ended so I assume we want a new RW as well? Who would be a viable solution who is also an ungrade to Pedro? I was thinking about James but he is sponsored by Adidas.

Does the buy back clause stand if say Ake renews his contract in 1-2 years?

I wish we'd get Aubameyang this year instead of Lukaku and only focus on a top class attacker next season like Dybala, Dembele, Mbappe etc.

Some celebrating this bad news

Replace Lukaku and especially Mahrez with Aubameyang and Dembele. Come on Nike

Hope they noticed he is not worth the money quoted or anything above 50 mil and we move on to Aubameyang.

Which Dembele is that? The one from Dortmund is a winger as far as I know.

Emenalo finally going gaga?

Why aren't we in for Semedo? If we can't get Ox I think Semedo would be perfect, likely to cost just 30 mil as well. Been linked to United in the last few days.

Made a completion to my post right after you quoted but yes. If he scores 25 goals and puts up decent displays after the group stages I'm all in to say I'm sorry and I was wrong but as of now I for one don't see him doing any of those 2 but will see what happens.

Goes both ways, some of you said he loves Chelsea he wouldn't be coming if we finished like last season. Secondly he wants a big fat paycheck according to rumours anyways. Also he seems entitled to believe he should be playing CL each season. The sheer disgust I'd feel when we reach the QF and see this donkey doing feck all in 180 minutes and start blaming him after the tie, only to notice he just signed and will need to lead our line up at least 2-3 years. I seriously hope we don't sign him and if we do I hope he proves me seriously wrong because I don't see it right now.

He should pay the transfer fee himself. This guy is such a selfish arrogant cnut wants to come back because we play in CL and no other team wants him. This transfer still pisses me off if it happens, no matter how much we pay and how some people proclaim him to be Drogba's heir and love for Chelsea.

21 June and still no transfer going as anticipated by the pessimist squad

Because Juventus wants to renew his contract with more money why would he move?

Better contact Monaco for Mendy we aren't getting Sandro.
