Any possible situation that involves the potential of a former legend taking points off of us is one I don't want to happen.

Who cares if he goes to a team bankrolled by one of our rivals? We don't want him to actually go TO one of our rivals.Why is that so hard for you to understand?

The hell would Frank agree to that?

So is Courtois' "number-gate" over yet? Has he got a squad number?

Exactly what I thought. He sounds like he's going to regretfully and reluctantly have to sell Cech.

True. If we do make any other signings I highly doubt it'll be up top.

Yeah, I think we can safely say that it's not gonna happen. I know José usually lies when he's talking about transfer business but after just watching his interview on Sky he seems pretty genuine and assertive that Torres won't be sold and that having 3 strikers is essential for us. Torres is just unsellable.

Doesn't work.

Full interview still hasn't been uploaded and posted here?

Someone make sure to post up the full video interview ASAP.

Spot on.That's a trade up if ever I've seen one. They can have fun with Luiz, we get a top class striker, and we fund their move for Di Maria stopping the likes of United signing him. Shit, if we sign Cavani maybe the board will just cut their losses and allow Torres to walk on a free making it easy to get rid of him.

So with Mourinho saying yesterday that he liked the look of Torres out wide and that he may indeed use a formation with 2 strikers sometimes this season, maybe targeting Cavani makes a bit of sense. He's very versatile, works tirelessly, and scores loads. Still not buying that we're interested yet and we don't especially need him, but I wouldn't say no.

Matic want ball. Matic get ball. He's like the fucking Terminator. Seek and destroy. And not only is he a physical monster who seems to win nearly every tackle, he can play the perfect through ball or lob over the top of the defense with the touch of a deep lying playmaker.

I'd be surprised if he played.

In 2-3 years time when the big clubs have poached Barkley, Lukaku, Stones, Coleman, McCarthy, and Roberto Martinez is managing Barca let's see how smug this Everton fan is.

Hope you're right.Di Maria, please!

True.Doesn't even have to be a striker. Why not throw this money at Real Madrid and negotiate for Di Maria? £28m would pay for almost all of Vidal.

Hopefully José continues his "one in, one out" policy here.

Well that certainly came out of nowhere, didn't it? Happy for the Saints after what they've been through. They get a good player.

Whilst we're all happy with the fee right now, it's almost cancelled out by these 3 things: 1) Torres stays 2) He could very well take points off of us this season 3) If he has a great couple of seasons there one of our rivals like United or City could buy him The one thing that can make up for these things is if we make one last big name signing.

Okay, I'll admit it. £28m for a player who never scored an important goal for us is fucking mad.

Looks like a marauding demon when he's running with the ball in open space. Me likey.

I definitely preferred seeing Cesc deeper where he has the ball more and can be more influential. But my god, how good is Matic!? Defending could definitely be better.

Matic is fucking ridiculously good. Our pressing and closing down of the ball were immense. The only slightly concerning thing was how susceptible we looked to the counter attack. Went to sleep on a few through balls and could easily have been punished once or twice that half.

Maybe we'll luck out and Chelsea TV will have this one up for free like they did a couple of matches ago. Doubt it.
