If anything I bet De Laurentiis will demand even more money for a man like Cavani and while I know close to nothing about spanish football, it would seem weird if they would be willing to sell Falcao for any less than they bought him for, which was also a huge price. Cavani in Chelsea shirt would make me hard though, very hard.

That we got one bargain hardly means another player won't be worth 8 mil more. If there was another player that could both play wing and Matas position we could get for 24 mil, I am sure the club would, but the market dictates the prices, would you really rather have another season with Kalou or Malouda out there? Can't wait for the kid to shut everyone up.

Well other than Jermaine Jones tackle, of course. He is and always will be a shit head.

Can't we just sign this guy? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2151983/HULK-use-permanent-paint-paint-come-OFF-Wannabe-superhero-left-red-faced-staining-green-missile-paint.html

18 assists this season (in all competitions). Football line ups is usually a good site for that http://www.football-lineups.com/footballer/26407/

Well I have no idea how the Portuguese shareholders laws are, but that is certainly not how they are here when Copenhagens management has discussed this before (it took the club nearly 24 hours to inform the shareholders about the sale of William Kvist to Stuttgart, they were reported but won the case). More than willing to believe it is fake though...

As soon as it's done in a reasonable time frame of course. Not saying the twitter rumors are true, doubt it, but that the shareholders haven't been informed yet isn't exactly proof of it. Yeah it really does seem pretty dodgy, even after that journalist claimed it was legit... But why the fuck wouldn't he have his account verified?

Nike sure have played around with gradient tool, haha. It looks terrible, it's Nike so what you expect, but usually not that bad.

Messi hit the post too... But I'm not saying that it was a genius tactic or anything, that wasn't my point, just that it wasn't as useless as some make it out to be. What I am saying is that on any other day it could have easily been Barca going through, think Chelsea fully deserved it in the end with that fight.

Well they missed a penalty and so on... So it's not like the their plan a was completely useless...

So you're doubting Pep because of peoples unreasonable and weird expectations? Doesn't make sense. I'm more than assured that if Pep comes in he won't play a system that doesn't fit the team, it will be a slow process to play more attacking football.

One man will certainly not be enough to change the football philosophy at Chelsea, at least not to something like in Barcelona. I'm not one of those that think the way Barca plays is the most fantastic thing ever, but what they do is something that they have been working on with generations of players. I don't think Pep will be stupid and try and completely reform the club if he comes, it's a slow transition, everyone knows that. You're doubting a man that has won I don't even know how many trophies with Barca because he didn't reform the club. Our current manager who just won us CL is a west brom reject who not even Birmingham wanted and he sure didn't reform Chelsea or show any signs of wanting to do so, he went back to the old Mourinho roots.

That's a very premature statement. He hasn't managed anyone but barcelona yet, lets face it : Their tactic worked for the 3 first seasons and it's the style the whole club is based around. Of course they should have a plan b, but problem is they just haven't had the player for it this season, with Zlatan they did (and that showed he isn't completely Bielsa crazy and set in stones with his tactics) but we all know how that ended up...

Di Matteo has done incredible well and I praise him for it, but is he the right man to rebuild a Chelsea side? I have my doubts.

If anything Luiz would fit perfectly. Lets not forget Puyol was a important player under him either, he's really not very fast these days and isn't a great passer or anything. He might be a very attacking manager, but he isn't Bielsa crazy in that regard. Would imagine someone like Terry being fucked with him coming in though, Pep doesn't take any bullshit and I would imagine fucking team mates wives, being accused of racism and what not is included under that.

Didn't his bad marking cost a goal within the first like 5 min of him being a right back against Barca? I love Ramires but he doesn't seem like someone who would be comfortable on the right back and I don't want him there.

Le Equipe said around that too. Not surprised in the slightest though, as you said with the English medias who can't even translate a bit of french correct.

It's business. They got a contract on him and he should honor it like any professional if they don't want to sell, would be silly for Porto not to try and get as many millions as possible. It could easily be around 90% done and it's only a few millions separating the clubs.

Well..Damn.

I would think a player like Hulk would have more than 26.000 followers. He's also posting photos of himself that can be found on other sites, posted months before he did it on twitter and his account is not verified. So yeah, really doubt it's him.

Well even Robbens hairline >>> Gervinhos hairline.

Gervinho was 22 or 23 when he went to Lille. Hazard started playing for them when he was 17.

Eh surely Marin or De Bruyne (he can play right win too, right?) will be on that right wing. I love Ramires but he isn't a fantastic winger. Also really doubt Hazard is going to play centrally instead of Mata, it will be Hazard going on that left wing.

The clue is in his location Location: Eva's Bedroom

and in 70 years they won't have any numbers left. Del Piero told the Juve management not to retire his number 10 shirt and Pirlo agreed and I quite liked his reasoning
