He wont, he playes in the no.10 role for Everton.

Plus Lukaku, Zouma, and maybe Courtois. Thats six changes.

Why signing him? because he's English? if we sign an AM, we should sign Rues who's 10 times better. he'll even cost less probably.

Only if we sell Oscar or Schurrle, or offer one of them to BVB in a player+cash deal.

I don't think you can keep call it "slip ups" when it happens all the time, and not because of bad luck or something.. we're just not good enough. It could have happend a lot more with the football we played most of the season.

I don't think we need an AM, but if we are looking, it's Rues or nothing for me.

You're right that he's very different from Aguero or Suarez, though that wasnt my point. my point was that i think he's better than Costa in short spaces, making something from nothing, handle 3-4 defenders around him and shoot.. like Jose was talking about the last few days. Falcao is inferior in link up play and passing and thats why I dont think he's right for us, but he's super dangerous with the ball at his feet when he's arond and in the box.

Mourinho: "We have good players, but don't have the kind of striker able to, in a short space, to make an action, score a goal, open the gate" Costa is great, but to me it sounds like Mourinho is talking about a different type of striker (Aguaro, Suarez, Falcao).

Thats a lot to ask. too much imo. City wouldnt lose 3 points in their two home games. That little hope is not always that good...

How? even if we won yesterday we would still need Liverpool and City to drop 3 points. They only lost 2 today.

It shouldnt, we needed Liverpool and City to lose at least 3 points each. 2 drop points woudlnt help.

I think that with a top Striker and a top CM we should be the favourites, no metter what CIty are doing in the summer (unless they're bringing someone like Rues to play with Silva, keeping Aguaro, and make their defense alot better - and that requires more than buying Mangala, it requires some serious job). I think City should have got the title easily this season, but they proved yet again they dont have this big team mentality. I think we should and would bypass them next season.

I dont like CIty as champions, its a lot better than Livepool of course, but for the future i think it would have been better if City failed to win it. They're going to be our big rivals the next seasons and a title would bring them more confidence. Though when i think about it, they were bad last season (a season after winning the title).. and their mentality and character always seems questionable.. hope it wont change. It also means they won 2 titles against our 3 since the clubs got mega rich. Need to make the gap bigger next season.

Seems British media rushed it. 1. According to Di Marzio, Atletico dont want to let him go and now trying to extend his contract (and increase the exit clause). http://gianlucadimarzio.com/en/calciomercato/chelsea-pushing-to-acquire-diego-costa-while-atletico-tries-to-extend-his-contract/ 2. Marca are saying British media are wrong, and there wasnt any big meeting between Chelsea and Atletico on wednesday after the match. They are saying the club doesnt want to let him go, and adding that Costa himself doesnt think about leaving just yet. http://www.marca.com/2014/05/03/en/football/spanish_football/1399108401.html You might be confused about the previous Marca article, but that article was saying: "according to reports in some of the British media". here: http://www.marca.com/2014/05/02/en/football/international_football/1399047921.html

yeah i guessed its bullshit

All of you here wanted Everton to win? Liverpool loses to palace, City loses to Villa. champions. Mark my words.

lol

where?

Even if someone doesnt like Oscar, how can you ignore Willian? the 10# role is obviously his best position and i think he can really shine there next season.

In: Costa, Vidal, Filipe Luis. Out: Torres, Ba, Eto'o, Cole, Mikel. GK: Courtois, Cech FB: Ivanovic, Luis, Azpilicueta, Van Aanholt CB: Terry, Cahill, Luiz, Kalas CM: Matic, Vidal, Remires, Lampard, Van Ginkel AM: Oscar, Hazard, Willian, Schurrle, Salah CF: Lukaku, Costa

Whats true? where did they say he'll leave?

I think its obvious, not winning the title next season would be a big failure. It doesnt mean Roman should sack Jose, but it will be a failure for Jose and he would say the same. It will be the 2nd season for him, we'll get the players he wants, its nothing like this season. it must end with the title imo. i dont think we should be too stressed out about that though... we have the right man to count on.

I didnt say all those teams wont be "there", i said we should be better. Because we have the manager, the spirit and the squad that suppose to get better. I dont think City and Liverpool has to be better next season, my guess is they wouldnt, we defenetly will be i hope.

Win the league, thats all i want, and we should do it after we came so close to win it in Jose's first season. I dont think we should fear anyone, City, Liverpool, United... i think we should be a lot better than them next season. Ciy had the best squad, a squad that runs together for a few years, they're in their prime this season and they barely going to win it. Liverpool had a freak season that i dont think they're going to replicate. United have too much to change, im not sure about Van Gaal abilities to chance it all in a few months and im not sure they'll get the players they want without CL football. The leauge wasnt a must this season, i feel its a must for next season.

Preliminary discussions with #Hamburg have already taken place for Hakan Calhanoglu who Chelsea value at around £7.5m (Mail) in what position does he play? no pivot i guess..
