You have no excuses now, Neymar! You can leave Brazil for London and still feel right at home. Barca in blue? Fuck that. Brazil in blue.

Good thing about living in the Eastern time zone of the USA. It's mid-day in London when I wake up, so I can usually get some juicy news right away.

Hulk will be dying to come here even more seeing yet another compatriot move to Chelsea. Oscar should get into his ear during the Olympics about putting in a transfer request.

Hmmmm "Brazilian Football Confederation personnel confirmed that Oscar was released for the medical - Feeling is he has already signed for Chelsea"

This is about the third time this deal is "100% done," so I'll wait for a "We're delighted to announce the signing of Oscar" tweet from Chelsea FC to get excited.

Daily Mail now saying we've bid £27m for him. I'd sincerely hope we wouldn't go anywhere NEAR that price. Not worth a penny over £15m, in my opinion. Their fool of an owner thinks he's worth more than Hazard. Get the fuck out of here. That kind of money is reserved for world class players. The vast majority of fans have never even heard of Willian.

The game airs on ESPN here in the States, so I'd imagine they'll be streaming it via their website, too.

Don't know why people keep bringing up his age. He's 20 now and will turn 21 early in the season in September. Same age as Eden Hazard.

So no Modric, Hulk too expensive, Moutinho wants Spurs, and Oscar and Shurrle's clubs refuse to sell for the prices we've offered. Hopefully this doesn't mean we'll have to settle for average players like Willian, Walcott, or Moses as alternatives.

Lukaku looks like a giant standing next to Eden.

As much as I'd love this, I just don't think it's likely at all. We're absolutely loaded in midfield, and with Oscar seeming likely, don't see how he'd get much if any game time. Lamps, Meireles, Romeu, Mikel, Ramires, and maybe Oscar. Who's he going to displace?

I'm pretty confident with this squad being much better than last season's, but do we honestly think we've improved enough to make up 25 points or whatever it was? There's still work to be done in terms of signings. 2-3 more additions and 2-3 more departures, hopefully. Just can't imagine we'll be seeing Malouda in a blue shirt come the season opener. He's one who must go. Yossi and possibly Essien too.

They're trying to bring in Andy Carrol, remember? He'll more than make up for the absence of Ibra!

King Carlo probably falls asleep laughing his ass off every night knowing that all he has to do is name a player and they'll buy 'em.

Telegraph reporting that Madrid have offered £40m+. That should be the end of this saga.

Did Milan not just turn down €45m for Silva alone? Why would they accept €65 for Silva and one of the most expensive strikers on the planet? Sounds kind of puzzling to me.

So the word from his club now is that they'll wait until after the Olympics to make a decision. In other words, see if he plays out of his mind so you can milk us for more.

Trying to think what number he'd take.

That Nameless fucker ruins all of soccernet. Almost can't even go to the site anymore.

That's why I'm not holding my breath until I see a "We're delighted..." tweet pop up on my Twitter timeline.

"Tottenham also made an offer, but he should accept Chelsea's offer as there is more exposure there." HAHAHAHA! That's what I like to hear. Fuckin Spud scum.

^ Most expensive first XI on earth?

So either the signing has or is close to happening and they're just wrapping up details in secrecy, or it's just bullshit. This is why I never get excited by a DailyFail story.

Neymar take note! Join your mates here, son!

hopefully as far away from London as possible.
