Didier should take a lot of them tbh.

It seems like every year its "in [someone] we trust" how many times do we have to be proven wrong by managers making the same mistakes year after year until someone finally realises somewhat of an overhaul is needed? Every year it gets harder and more expensive to sign good players as well.

Club should be looking to pay between 10m-15m. Personally I think he will flop if we do sign him.

Yet another fantastic player we could really use but will let City sign, only for him to be a pain in the ass in every game we play against him for years to come.

I swear the last 10 "sources" in this thread have been the same quotes with a different spin on them.

Hiddink is the best quality candidate for manager. Modric for £22m would have been ok with me, but I hope we don't sign him for more than £25m. Either from Modric or Nasri for PL experience, or possibly Sneijder or Pastore. And then a winger. Probably the riskiest signing as no one who currently plays in the PL is really available that's worth getting. The only PL winger I would consider is Arshavin, as he would probably work at his best under Hiddink. Other than that De Bruyne could be worth a shot, but such an important position probably warrants our biggest spending this window. Probably wont play out that way though. Still not really sure who is the best candidate for this. I don't really want Neymar, he would not fit in with the other players in our squad at all.

Didn't his exams just start? Doubt we'll hear anything before they're over, although I doubt we're signing him.

I'm so desperate I'd cut your other nut off to make it happen

+1 The big man himself will thrive in an environment where all Liverpool players are worrying about Fernando.

I actually kind of want Torres to be used as a last resort second half sub in this match. Some of the scouse will probably try to bottle him, and imagine if Carragher is fit for the game? I can imagine him trying to tear every tendon Torres has

Spunking 50 million pounds on an injury prone player is just stupid I refuse to believe this is happening.

Carlo always does the respectful thing - good for him, good for the club, maybe annoying for fans, but its for our own good. I don't know what will happen this transfer window, I just hope someone somewhere comes in to spice our XI up and get people motivated to fight for their place again.

Our squad would be "perfect" if we had a Carvalho replacement, a Robben replacement, and a Zola replacement I guess

"We never comment on transfer speculation, no matter how wild it is," said a Chelsea spokesman.

I'm not entirely convinced we offered to spend £52m wtf. Maybe 52 million euros (30 for Aguero?). I don't know.. We'll see. It wouldn't surprise me if Carlo comes out and says "LOL WAT? Who is Godin? Never heard of him. He is not a player for Chelesa" ..eyebrow.. "Aguero? I have Kalou, Sturridge. Why do I need Aguero?"

Lescott on a free to play only in emergencies would be acceptable to me

He's still a good player but just doesn't score enough goals to be a striker. I don't know what will happen with him but he's certainly got enough talent to play in the top flight.

He made the decision of what to do in his life by signing a contract for X many years. He made his decision, he can't expect to be able to just decide to leave. He can ask the club but if they say no it is tough luck, get on with it and be more sensible next time you sign a contract somewhere.

I will second that. Now I am off for a kebab, a beer and a movie with some friends. Have a nice evening everyone. Hope Cameron and whoever else made the trip today are alright getting back, its usually a bitch of a trip ffs.

Salomon is a legend. The definition of anti quality, but lovable for it.

Drogba is probably still a couple of weeks off of his best, I agree. Playing well enough though

Would rather see Benayoun but alright, Carlo, I'll forgive you

And yet you can tell that within a week some of the people in this thread will be back to talking shit about Anelka and Mikel. No wonder we have such a bad reputation with other fans, ffs.

Is there a centre back in the world who can play RB better than Ivanovic?

I think Anelka is doing well.
