£30m? Shaktar's # should now be blocked at the Bridge.

Agreed.If we can move Salah and bring in Cuadrado then we'll have done some fantastic business but I'm not sure I want to see Schürrle leave.

I thought he was speaking about Schürrle when saying it would take an "exceptional" offer?Seems like any deals depend on what happens with André. He's the domino that would set in motion any moves. If we don't get a big money offer for him then we do no business this window in my opinion.

Sounds to me like an offer for Schürrle has clearly been submitted to us but it's not quite enough for us to sell. Yet.

Just when I'm starting to really warm to the idea of Cuadrado, shit is starting to go wrong and we may settle for a mediocre player instead.

I really hope we don't settle for Douglas Costa if we dont get Cuadrado. I'd rather just keep what we have. He's not an upgrade at all.

Yeah, wouldn't surprise me either way. Though, as transfers and transfer deadlines get close José will sometimes be open about things.He was with Willian and Costa.

Surely we'll hear something about these rumors in a bit at the press conference. José will usually at least admit something's going on.

Suddenly, signing Cuadrado sounds great...

May as well relocate the Brazilian embassy to Stamford Bridge.

I've been checking around a few oppositions forums and they all seem more worried about us signing him than our own fans are excited at the prospect.

Keep in mind that the standard of opposition Willian is up against is much more difficult than what Cuadrado faces. These stat charts are pretty meaningless.

Even if both Salah and Schürrle go would we really be after another right sided attacking player? Willian, Cuadrado, and Reus would be far too many to keep happy.If we buy Cuadrado then I'd think our business would be done as far as attacking players go.

We'll be kicking ourselves if we spend on Cuadrado now and see Reus go to another English club in the summer. Like someone said, it may be smarter to wait and see who's available next window. Some top, world class player may be unsettled or out of a contract. Think Cuadrado is a good player but we should wait for a great one instead.

So have we signed Big Quad yet?

Well that's that, then. Deal off.

Come on, Mak. Not like we're getting Hulk here.

If it's Salah being sacrificed in this deal then I'd be satisfied but not if it means Schürrle gets sold. As bad as he's been lately I think he's got too much upside and potential to get rid of. He's a player I think we'd regret selling.

Yikes. Sort of glad I missed this one.

Sounds like the beggining of the last game against them judging by Twitter.

Surprised Oscar is dropped in the form he's in.

Won't be able to watch. I'll have to follow this one on Twitter.

The red cunts over at RAWK seem to be pretty confident. "If Spurs can hit them for 5 then we can definitely beat them too." Yeah, Spurs had an on fire Harry Kane, Liverpool don't. Liverpool also can't defend. Spurs was obviously a totally freak result. Every shot they took went in seemingly. Won't happen again. Liverppol are quickly gaining ground on Arsenal as my most hated club. I hope we batter them like we did Swansea.

Have to agree here. If we spend money on a wide player he has to be a significant upgrade on what we have.

Is he even that much of an improvement on what we have? I think we could do better for the money that's being talked about.
