Falcao's second half of 2012/2013 (since January) - 14 goals for Atletico, 2 from penalties. Falcao in Monaco - 11 goals in 18 starts, 2 from penaltis.

I hope not, it would mean we have to bring another LB instead, and there are enough positions we need players to come in - GK, CB, ST, RW, CM. With LB its six players, cant see us getting six in one summer. Drogba and Cech wont be here, while Cuadrado, Mikel and Luis situations arent clear, i dont think all 3 could leave.

Salah could leave Fiorentina & return to Chelsea before going to a 3rd team, Wolfsburg & Atletico Madrid are interested (via @ManuBaio) He's from Sky Italia. Di Marzio adds that while Fiorentina have an option to keep Salah, he will be the one decides if he stays or comes back to Chelsea.

Everything indicates he is close? the only talk in the last few months came from his interviews. I think our best option for CB is Miranda and i hope the rumors are true. Varane wont leave and we wont pay a lot for Otemandi. Miranda would be quite cheap and Atletico reportedly looking to sell him. Very few reports about RW and CM and i hope its because we're first looking to ship out Mikel and Cuadrado.

Didnt people here said it will be out early june?

They say "Should Falcao succeed during a season-long loan at Chelsea, then Monaco want a written agreement that the Blues would have to pay £35m to sign him permanently." But imo Telegraph don't know what they're talking about.

Anyone know the Udinese CM Allan? i remember seeing rumors about him... looks very technical but also aggressive, old school brazilian midfielder.

For the Spanish speakers here, you can listen to the interview: http://miseleccion.co/noticias/noticias/quiero-continuar-en-la-premier-league-falcao-sobre-su-posible-llegada-al-chelsea/20150406/nota/2791847.aspx

Mikel can join Asamoah Gyan at Al Ain in Dubai. Mikel representatives will meet with Al Ain officials on Friday to begin negotiations http://africanfootball.com/news/536577/EXCLUSIVE-Talks-begin-for-Mikel-to-join-Gyan-in-Dubai

He was always going to stay this summer but im surprised about the new contract.

Thats not what he says. Verratti's agent met Perez and another guy from Real. Real want to offer 50m euros for PSG and 7m a year for Verratti (after taxes).

Thats barely a good signing, it just shows Liverpool's ambitions... he came there to be a starter and now they're gonna play with him and Henderson, and they're basically the same player, for 150k its ridiculous. They would never make top 4 again with Milner and Ings. 1 Year ago they spended all their money on PL players from Southempton, it looks like they cant see past the PL, its pathetic.

I meant i dont think Real will go for him, unless Bale or Ronaldo is leaving. But it also depends on their biggest target Verratti imo. They dont really need any of those, a Winger or a CM who cost so much, its about making a big signing.. so they probably also think about Sterling but i doubt it will get serious.

Benitez might like him, but i can't see them buying him. Unless they're selling bale or Ronaldo which wouldn't happen.

I would love to have Kondogbia or Moutinho. I dont see them as only back ups, but as the option for the games we approach more conservatively, the extra CM instead of Ramires/Mikel who usually gets picked in those games.

I think our 3 CBs can be questionable in some way. Terry is great but can he really play a full season again? is Mourinho really happy with Cahill as a 1st CB? and Mourinho thinks Zouma is ready? I think there's no certain answer for either of those questions. Another CB looking like something we might need.

Massimo Ferrero, #Sampdoria president: "I'm in talks with #Chelsea for Kurt #Zouma. He's our main target for defense" Surely a loan.. but can it really be an option? if he's telling the truth about 'talks' than we didnt refused it yet.

Definitely Matic' level.

Those pictures are not even funny anymore.

Against most mid table sides i think we can control the ball with Matic, Cesc, Willian/Oscar and Hazard. Tbh im not sure that Griezmann, if he comes, would participate in creating possession like the other midfielders, he would probably only take little touches. Maybe (im just pondering here) Mourinho sees the need in more firepower but dont think this player got to be a ball playing midfielder.

or something like this Willian---------Hazard ----Costa-Falcao---

I wish we'll go for Fekir.

With the lack of reports about top Wingers, anyone thinks Mourinho might want Costa-Falcao to work together again on a regular basis?
