They could've at least matches their skin color...

Not really. It would basically be like a straight swap with no net spend.

If we manage to get £27m for Schürrle our board deserve medals. Almost as ridiculous as £28m for Lukaku. Don't see how anyone would pay that for him.

I'll miss him. I think he'll be just like De Bruyne in that he'll really blossom again as a regular starter and earn another move to a bigger club in a couple of years.

Sign the Quad Rod already!

He sure does draw a lot of fouls. He's basically playing a free role here. Roaming in the #10 position rather than playing out wide like we'd have him doing. Doesn't really make use off his skill set playing in this position.

So frustrating. Quality player in Cuadrado who is 100% attainable with a release clause that isn't outrageous and we look to be passing him over for this kid.

Not ever playing?

Not seeing anything on Twitter yet.If we are indeed after him it would be nice not to let it go to the deadline. He could get a few training sessions in and be available for City.

This Cuadrado story seems to have completely died. Seemingly on the brink of completion a few of days ago and now not a peep for a couple of days.

No chance, Barb. I think they'd reject even a huge bid like £50m. Only possible way it could happen is if Varane publicly kicked up a fuss and demanded a transfer. Even then Real Madrid would just tell him to be patient and he'll eventully become a first choice player.

I bet if you asked José off the record which one player in world football he could sign it would be Varane. Varane & Terry partnership...goodness.

Now watch us seriously regret settling for this kid when one of our direct rivals like City or United sign Cuadrado in the summer. Replacing a player we had with a lesser player. Obviously I'll support him if we sign him and hope for the best but this would be the least excited I'll be for a signing in as long as I can remember. I'd rather just keep André honestly.

FA cup now basically gifted to United or Liverpool.

Oh my fucking God.....

Christ, wtf is happening!?

He's got transferitis.

Hopefully it's not Douglas Costa. I'll admit that I'd be a bit upset if we sold Schürrle for someone he's better than.

Didn't José say yesterday that Schürrle was selected and could start? I think maybe that "exceptional" offer may have come in.

Would be sad to see him go if he does. Much like Demba Ba you could tell André really tried his hardest to be a part of things and loved being a Chelsea player.

Salah sure did get back from negotiations in Roma quickly.

I....really want us to sign him now. I need a shiny new toy to fawn over. Just thinking about the possibility of wingers on both sides of the pitch being able to blaze past a defender and play aggressively gets me excited. You see even average wingers in this league can be very effective, so the prospect of adding a potentially top class one sounds good to me.

Just imagine the side Mourinho would assemble if you handed him £150m to spend right now. We really would win the quadruple. They're in 4th and struggle repeatedly against lower league opposition.

Most expensive squad ever assembled in England.
