Walker and Cleverly should be no where near the NT.

I bet he's going there to win trophies

Very true. You don't pay 20-25m for a squad player. I think Jovetic is likely to stay in Italy, anyway.

That's an excellent point! Funniest thing I read today, is that we're looking to sell Luiz to fund the Matic deal Tha irony there is almost painful! Resigning Matic would be a huge "F*** You" to the Chelsea board and youth policy and a confession by the club of making a huge mistake. A confession that I'm not sure they are ready to make, so I very much doubt the deal will go through.

I think he can be converted to play behind the striker in a 4-2-3-1. After all that is where Mata played for the last two months of the season (although it was more of a 4-4-1-1).

That is what will happen most probably. Cavani was most closely linked with Madrid since Jan and I don't think we were ever going for a pure striker this summer because we just signed one in Jan. It was always a case of the supporters wanting a Cavano or a Falcao. We will probably sign a player like Schurrle who plays on the wings but can cover at ST.

I hope you don't mind, I edited your post so that the links would appear as youtube videos.

What other people said to you is irrelevant. You're a Madrid fan on a Chelsea forum. You're the one who should try to not insult the members here. Your personality trait of mistaking your opinions for facts, don't exactly help you become popular here. Rookie mistake

Alright, alright, that's enough derailing for one night, people. If you find yourselves annoyed or offended by the Madrid fan, then put him on your ignore list, like I did a long time ago. @, This is the final warning. All opposition fans are welcomed here but they have to abide by forum rules and respect other members opinions. Please remember that you are a guest on a Chelsea forum. Your arrogance and lack of respect to Chelsea legends is offending to other members.

I thought we banned you last year Anyway, please be aware that the staff will not tolerate a 'fiasco' like the one that happened last time. So do try to not rate other people's opinions on a scale from 1 to 10 this time...

No, no. Not yet!

No. That is not the reason.

Why her and not the others? It's obviously a message against people with red, purple and green skin color. Racist bastard!

Tbh, I can get why Ricki went there. He's 35 now and isn't exactly good enough to play for a top European club. If he wants to play for a lower team and ear a big fat wage, then I think he's deserved it.

No honestly. We may have inquired about his availability, which is pretty normal. but very much doubt that we made an actual offer for him.

Officially joined Monaco. Moved the thread to the Football Banner.

Please try to stay on topic people. We have proper threads to discuss almost any subject. This thread is getting derailed to death!

To be fair Crespo didn't do too badly here.

They'll only want the 50m unfortunately..

I meant in the present, unless you have a way of bringing the Lampard of 2005 to play with us next season..

Why in the world would Napoli accept 30m plus Torres. 30m is what Torres makes in about 3 and a half years. They would basically be making no money by selling their star player.

Sorry I can't give you post the proper respect and answer in a similarly long post, but I have an exam in 45 mins. But I will try to answer briefly. First, it's not exactly fair to hold me responsible for every criticism the board receives because of one sentence. In fact I've been among the people calling to loan out again Courtois, Chalobah and even Lukaku (depending on circumstances). But you can't say that all of those cases with our loaned players are the same. Like I said on the previous page, it all boils down to the fact Kevin is A LOT better than plenty of the options we already have here. That's where we disagree. You say that he will be counting clouds on the bench, I say that he will at least get 30-35 appearances (not starts) for us next season because in my eyes, he is much better than Moses, Lampard, and even Oscar and more importantly Schurrle. That's where the problem is. What will you think when you know you are better than half your teammates but your club is using you just as a tool to lure a player that you are also better than? The message that the board is sending to Kevin is that they don't believe he is good enough despite everyone else believing in his ability.

Yes I know that that's what you think. That's why I said you're going to be disappointed.

I meant the part where you said Schurrle will be a starter.
