Out of all the players at Porto we go for Perreira, he is good but nothing different to what we have. We should be bidding for James Rodriguez.

He was linked with Arsenal in the summer of 2009

Welcome mate

Supposedly Trabzonspor are also implicated in the match fixing, this looks like it could have some serious affects on the turkish league.

Fenerbache have be withdrawn from the champions league by the Turkish football federation due to match fixing in the Turkish league. Will be interesting to see who takes their place

Delighted that he's training already, expect him to get on at some point on Saturday. Exciting player

That's sickening

You sort of contradict yourself there mate

I reckon the deals done, and it will be confirmed after he returns from Valencia.

This is a weird one, nothing on abola, no statement to the stock exchange on Portos site about us bidding. Seems like sky plucked this from nowhere.

I'd say he knows some english, but they could be speaking French though.

Lovely sounds promising, let's hope it's true so

I didn't see much of the U-20 world cup, is he a striker or a winger?

Napoli could potentially be very dangerous, and there's a chance they'll be in pot 4 assuming Villareal qualify I think

If arsenal and Bayern qualify they go into pot 1 and Milan will be in pot 2 Lille and Dortmund will be in pot 3 because they have low coefficients

Should be very interesting to see who we get, hope we get one seemingly weak-er team from the 4th pot. Would be nice to see some fringe/youth get a shot at them like Zilina last season.

Welcome mate, theres no better place on the interwebs for Chelsea supporters

No your right I wouldn't, it just annoys me. Fair enough if it was 2003 and players were dropping everything to suddenly join us they'd have a point but at this stage of the game we're an established winner in what some call the best league in the world. but sure haters gonna hate

I can see Madrid going in for Hummels next summer. Bundesliga has become their happy hunting ground over the last two summers, Strong German contingent there with Ozil, Khedira, Altintop and Sahin.

It's sad that nearly 10 years on from Roman taking over money is still being touted as the primary reason for choosing Chelsea, they go on like it's the only thing that can attract a player, when we have been in and around the top 5 teams in Europe in terms of consistency since 2003. Three leagues, three fa cups, 2 league cups, great showings in the champions league reaching a final, and the semi's six times. That's better than the "Great" Real Madrid in that time frame.

Hit the nail on the head, Aguero is probably my favourite non chelsea player. Been watching him ever since we we're first linked and I just fell in love with his game. Speaking of Thiago Silva I remember when we were linked with him heavily back just around the time with signed Ivanovich, he was being quoted at around 4 mil. Now his worth probably 7 times that. Hummels looks solid alright, think he would be more suited to the premiership as well.

Me too has deep history to it as well, It's a lot better than our 3rd kit.

Wow 'arry grow the fuck up you clay faced clown. It's not wages it's ambition, sometime spurs lack.

Good to hear mate
