Just treat it as fun and games mate. Then you won't be sad if they don't sign

Twitter rumour: ''Reliably informed that talks on image rights and salary (approx 175k/week) are all that remains for Torres deal to be completed.'' @danroan

soccernet - More sources saying the David Luiz deal is back on. Harry Harris has been tracking Chelsea's staff and a Chelsea insider told ESPNsoccernet: “I cannot say what is going on, but I would be surprised if there are not developments later in the day, and yes your right Ron Gourlay is at the training ground awaiting developments on the last day of the transfer window.”

TORRES UPDATE: He has left Melwood, but by car. We've seen the video. No choppers, but Torres is heading off somewhere.

but much more fun

I'm gobsmacked! TORRES +LUIZ?!?

FROM SOCCERNET News from our man Harry Harris: ''Chelsea are on red alert to announce the Torres deal...and Luiz. Ron Goulay [chief exec] is at the training ground awaiting Torres' arrival.''

Interesting stuff from the Liverpool Echo's photographer at Melwood. He says "no helicopter here today, unless it was a stealth one". Has anybody seen this chopper?

the picture's a joke lol

Torres leaves LFC training ground by helicopter. He's coming alright!

BREAKING NEWS I need to go take a pee.

lmao

From skysports @SkysportsPeteO: Bolton are believed to be closing in on the signing of Chelsea forward Daniel Sturridge on loan. Follow me on Twitter @skysportspeteo

@SkySportsPeteF: Kenny Dalglish fiercely denied thatLiverpool were prepared to sell Fernando Torres. The Anfield boss also confirmed that he had money to spend at a time when reports have emerged regarding a bid for Andy Carroll.

Don't forget Lukaku either

Twitter rumour: "Chelsea made official bid for french international winger Dimitri Payet from #saintetienne. He's good but I'm still v surprised !" @LaurensJulien

The Carroll bid was confirmed. So obviously things are moving on the Torres front, regardless of them and us being quiet about it. Also, we wouldn't dream of letting Sturridge go on loan if Torres wasn't moving here. There's just Kalou otherwise as backup. Harry ruled out a move for Woodgate and Villa confirmed Young won't be leaving.

Yep. But the thing is Roman wants this move as a way to tell the world we're back in the big time with regards to the transfer market. Torres to Chelsea grabs way more headlines than Carroll/Hulk etc.

From soccernet - Looks like Chelsea defender Jeffrey Bruma won't be joining West Brom. Wessel Weezenberg, Bruma’s agent, said in the Express & Star: “At the moment the chances are very slim."

No definite sources at the moment mate. Twitter rumours and hearsay lol. Coyle did praise him today as the 'best young striker in England.'

Going to Bolton on loan it seems. If we don't sign Torres, we're fucked!

4/11 odds on Torres to leave. A sign?

soccernet seems to think so congratulations again on your wedding , gary!

This is interesting ... Liverpool have apparently bid 30 million for Andy Carroll. Where did they get such money from?

From soccerent - TORRES UPDATE: Club sources at Liverpool claim there has been NO new offer for Torres from Chelsea.
