It's apparently 27 million euros, so about £20 million plus bonuses.

haha, Google translation for you

Wolfsburg agree with Schurrle . World Champion says Cheseas Mourinho today that he wants to get away ! All backgrounds in sportbild.de

Accelerated sudden, Chelsea gets his hands on Cuadrado. The agreements are already defined, as well as details of recruitment and those related to the cost of the card of the Colombian. The only thing missing to define the compensation technique that will arrive in Florence, or Salah, they speak of loan dry by blues. The company Abramovich, as said, wants to up the tempo: we already arrived in the drafting of contracts and - even - Mourinho wants the boy already available for the match of the weekend. Rapid negotiation, that is ready to take off: Cuadrado to England, Chelsea awaits him. (Used Google translate so may not make total sense)

Chelsea continues to push for Juan Cuadrado. The parts are in continuous contact, negotiation proceeds sent and - thanks to the work of the outside Colombian agent, Alessandro Lucci - there seem to be all the conditions for the transaction can close quickly. Also close to the Economic Agreement between the Blues and the outside of Fiorentina, understanding on how to engage that will not be a problem. Mourinho can smile, Cuadrado closer.

tbf his all round game is still shocking, he's a good squad player for Atleti though.

I dont mind who plays, whether it's Cesc or Ramires. It's based on Jose's approach, if he's willing to attack and try and control the match, Cesc' your man. If he wants the team to sit back and counter Ramires would be perfect for that. One thing to consider though, City wont press high or put a man on Cesc, so he'll probably have more impact than he did against L'pool.

He does love a left footed player playing on the right... I wouldn't mind getting both, as i said, i like how technical Douglas Costa is, good close control, dribbling and could potentially work well with the likes of Willian and Hazard against parked buses, but he doesn't really offer anything different. Cuadrado does, and lets not forget he's proven quality unlike Douglas. Cuadrado - Schurrle Costa - Salah Could be a massive improvement to our squad.

Watch this video, he looks like a completely different player, it's funny how YT clips can make a player seem like another Hazard.

I doubt he's declining, probably just needs a change of scenery and in all honesty playing for Jose and Chelsea should give him that motivation.

Some interesting comments..

You're probably right, also Drogba is so good at holding the ball up and winning free kicks, could end up working.

Jesus christ, about time.

Would rather Remy starts ahead of DD, his pace will cause Kompany all sorts of trouble.

Yes spurs in the final, time for revenge.

I'm not so sure we're going to bring anyone in now, i could see Salah and Schurrle staying until the summer.

On another day he could have quite easily made two costly mistakes. The first was a mistimed header, Sterling was through if not for Terry slowing him down giving Zouma a chance to catch up and intercept. The second was when Countinho completely sent him the wrong way, if Countinho had any end product we could have been in trouble. This was all in the first half, i'm not being too harsh mainly because he's still so young, inexperienced and tbh was excellent in the 2nd half and E/T. As i said in the second half he was impeccable, the amount of tackles he made was impressive and i really love how athletic he is. He could work on the technical side of his game though, he's pretty raw on the ball.

If Costa is suspended i would much rather Remy starts ahead of Drogba, he has the pace to trouble Kompany and co.

He was good but his end product (finishing in particular) was poor, not going to lie. I do love his energy though, to constantly go from box to box is amazing. I hope he regains his form because tacticaly he gives us so many options.

Coutinho has no end product at all, though have to say his dribbling is amazing.

His final pass is still shocking but apart from that he was superb, love the shift he puts in game after game.

Its quiet in here, isn't it? I dont mind when people slate Mourinho, we're all allowed to voice our opinions, but what sickens me is that certain members only seem to post when we're losing just so they can criticise Jose.. it's truly pathetic.

First half he was shaky IMO, especially when Countinho completely fooled him. In the 2nd half he was flawless, made many interceptions and anticipated key passes. He's not that gifted on the ball like Verane but in a year or so he could be just as good. Massive talent.

No Schurrle, Salah or Mikel.
