Initial reports were suggesting we'd pay 23m now and then 3m in add-ons so that's probably where BBC got the 23.5m from.

I can't see Josh getting too many games, especially if modric arrives. He'll probably get the odd 10 or 15 minutes when we're a few goals up or something. Maybe he shoul go out on loan?

apparently Mata is "kill" in Spanish

nevermind

and now I shall spend the next two hours watching Mata videos on Youtube :blue scalf: :blue scalf: :blue scalf:

FUCK YEAH!!! :blue scalf:

According to the rumours though, talks are very advanced and may even have been concluded. Maybe there'll be a confirmation tomorrow and we might present him along with Romeu and Lukaku on Tuesday

Oh dear

Agreed. He also used the word "interesting" to describe Lukaku

Someone I know was watching the live phone-in on CTV after the match and Ben defo said that Mata was at the Bridge

Stop typing like that. It's annoying.

Hilario 7 Bosingwa 6 (only because he provided the winner) Jt 6 Alex 4 Ash 6 Mikel 7 Ramires 7 Lamps 5 Anelka 6.5 Torres 6 Kalou LOL Ivan 7 (did what little he had to do) Malouda 6 Drogba 4

Lampard is PAST IT. so what? We should keep him in our midfield til he's 45 just because he is Frank Lampard?

How much did you guys laugh when kalou was subbed off? Haha I absolutely cracked up. Must be so embarrassing for him, oh dear. The look on his face was just hilarious can't wait for him to bitch about it soon

Shoulnt get carried away because bosingwa, malouda were utter shit despite combining nicely for the winner. Lamps was missing as usual. Dear god how has he become so poor in such a short space of time?! Don't know why so many of you were disappointed with ivan coming on. Thought it was a great change even at the time. Alex was clearly struggling. Drogba was shit. Didn't look bothered. Should have kept Torres on. AVB still has A LOT of work to do.

Fuck off.

Only good thing so far: Torres has been great. Only one playing with passion. No one seems to want to pass to him ugh it's so frustrating

ugh kalou. Fuck off

:blue scalf: Hope it's true

Who the hell is this brad?!

And there are a lot of Spanish speakers at the club atm so they will help as well

Ah okay. I'm worried that there still hasn't been any reputable source reporting about this.

Seriously?

Ever since the robinho fiasco I've been ridiculously pessimistic about these sorts of things and try not to get my hopes up but i cant help it, this one is getting me excited!
