Would take him, techincally decent and can cross a ball!! On a slight side note, be interesting who is picked for the tour tomorrow, whoever (if anyone) gets left behind, besides the copa america guys, i think will be gone

No chance now. Theyll most likely be signed when we return home from tour. Otherwise that would mean someone signs tomorrow as we jet off Wednesday

Wouldnt surprise me if Pedro is our marquee signing this summer. Falcao, Begovic, Pedro and someone like Rudiger, John Stones etc. Not sure about a CM

Istanbul based newspaper AMKSPOR or something reckon agreement reached with Besiktas for Remy. SEVEN MILLION EUROS!!!!!??

Nah. That's just an easy reason for the Sun to use. It was reported we could spend £140m and pass FFP before the season began based solely on Yokohama's income, and revenue and TV money....I think the main concern is Mourinho wanted most if not all his signings in by time we went to America and it now looks unlikely before then

If we want him, we will enter the process now. For that sort of money he can go to city though, vastly over priced

It'll be 2 more signings after Begovic judging by that video, midfielder and defender. Plus a LB if Luis goes, and replacements for whoever else, because I am certain we will end up selling some of the first team squad

Let's hope Begovic has been almost done for a while and Stoke wanted a proven backup (Given) signed before confirming it.

M.E.N and The Guardian reckon City wont up their bid. Saga about to drag...... Sterling isnt going anywhere fast without a transfer request, Liverpool hold all the cards

The guy seems alright himself. Many people hate the way he acts and how he always shoots down other people's stories re.Chelsea, but bigs up his own EDIT: Anyone else hate reading Weaintgotnohistory articles? They come across right cocky pricks

He seems to be so insecure. I mean no offence to the guy, but he has this mindset that only he can break Chelsea news, or only he is right. Hates the thought of any other journo beating him to news. For instance, the Stadium stuff he said "I notice the papers are reporting the stadium story i broke already!!" EDIT: Also, wouldnt rule out Utd pinching Begovic now Madrid seem to be selling Casillas, which in turn probably means DDG to them, and Utd swoop in for Bego

Probably be done with City by the weekend.

Not going on tour to push through City move. This will be done very soon IMO. For £50m they can have him, not worth half

Mourinho;s new contract, or he is trolling and itll be something silly or non football related

True. But he usually comes out and says it is us straight away

"Its not Man City - bigger than that" his latest tweet, hmmm. Only thing i can think of now is De Gea to Madrid, but Madrid dont have seats to fill. Assuming by seats he means stadium seats ....

Sterling to City is mybet

I think theyll decide to wait until the elections. Which is probably the only chance any other club will have of comign in and snatching him.

Dont know how signifcant it is but Diario Sport in Spain reporting that Laporta, Friexa and Benedito - all of whom are competing with Bartomeu for presidency - have united and are "against" the signing of Arda turan EDIT: Read the article, it seems the other presidential candidates think the deal is of too big a magnitude for an interim committee to decide on, and by agreeing to sign Turan they run the risk of the next president (if not Bartomeu) not wanting him. And as a fair process they should not sign him today and wait until at least July 18th, and then let the new president give it the OK or not

Not buying the Mail story about us fearing Utd may hijack it. The guy who did the Telegraph story saying he will sign this week, is the most reliable journo when it comes to Stoke, according to their own fans.

Sport in Spain have apparently had an article on why Mourinho wants him, and that we have made an offer and given Atletico until next week for it all to be sorted Cant find it myself but seen someone post a few of the quotes from the article

Who is winning that election race anyway, Laporta or Bartomeu. Apparently Bartomeu is a real dodgy character

I thin Barca and Atletico have an agreement, not barca and Turan

yep, sure did

Just read Mundos article translated, and it says "Turan is currently in Ibiza relaxing awaiting the go ahead from Barca" adds a bit more substance to it to be honest
