Raul is better than Lampard, at least

I'm not bothered we've not brought anyone in, its the fact we've loaned two creative players and now have Josh and only Josh as anyone who can put a decent pass in. Ridiculous.

Too late now, fucking bullshit.

I'm gutted we've not even got de Bruyne... I'm so fucked off we've loaned Kakuta and Benayoun... two players who are creative, and replaced them with fucking no-one, we will never learn!!

£8 million should do it.

I think that'll happen too How uninspiring.

Offer them Kalou

I heard he is going to earn a contract that puts Eto'o's one at Anzhi to shame. £350,000 a week.

Out - Benayoun In - no-one New contracts for - Kalou, Malouda, Anelka and Turnbull In all seriousness, if that stuff about a ChelseaTV transfer special is true, which I don't think it is, it'll probably be to announce Pereira and de Bruyne, they seem the most likely transfers. Dream situation for me would be Pereira, de Bruyne and Moutinho.

I don't think we'll get him now, after what the Genk GM said.

Gutted.

FUCK OFF SPURS.

Diego Lugano, the Uruguay captain, I imagine.

Thank Fuck.

OFFICIAL - loaned to Vitesse http://translate.goo...ar-vitesse/1815 Ulises Davila to Vitesse 30-08-2011 8:50 Ulises Davila plays next season in yellow and black. The 20-year-old player signed last week a five-year contract with Chelsea that he has acquired from Chivas Guadalajara. The Mexican is one of the major talents in the international youth football. Vitesse Davila rent for a season of Chelsea FC. "This transfer is altogether lasted one month or two," said technical director Ted van Leeuwen, in London an agreement with Chelsea and Ulises rounded off compared to Sprint TV "It's an open guy, which will fit perfectly into our group. Ulises is very motivated to come to Vitesse Arnhem and from the road to the summit to take. " Ulises is an attacking midfielder who is also in a free role from the very edges of the feet can. Ulises currently waiting on work permit in Mexico. Anthony Annan is also still awaiting these documents. Valeri Qazaishvili now has the correct papers in his possession. He is immediately usable. Ted van Leeuwen: "The selection is increasingly taking shape. Certainly the offensive capabilities of Ulises and Qazaishvili enormously. " Ulises Davila given shirt number 24 at Vitesse.

Agreed, zolayes. Talk about off-topic! I'm closing this.

I think that's very harsh, he was the best player on the pitch when they beat us at Stamford Bridge.

This is just cruel, I'm getting my hopes up when the reality is that he's going to be awarded a new 7-year contract.

Alvaro Pereira Deal Falls Apart, Reports Dn Chelsea - We aint got no History Aug. 30, 2011, 2:51 p.m. On Monday, a report in A Bola suggested that Chelsea were on the verge of paying FC Porto the full buyout clause for Uruguayan utilityman Alvaro Pereira a - a sum of €30M. Said report never made much sense, because while Pereira is an excellent player and worth a good chunk of money, he most assuredly is not worth that much to a team without an obvious starting position for him. Meanwhile, other rumours had a deal done between Porto and Chelsea for €22M. If the latest reports are true... well, both A Bola's story and the other rumours floating around were kind of right, but mostly wrong. Check out the latest from DN Desporto (I have no idea how credible this outlet is, but what they're saying makes sense in light of Monday's stories): -Source: DN Desporto . Translation by Google! So, if the latest report is true (and I don't think we have much cause to think that it isn't) the €22M was correct and the €30M was correct, but the deal being done was apparently wrong. This makes sense from every aspect - Chelsea would have had to have been utterly insane to spend €30M on a man who for all of his merits would essentially be a utility player at Stamford Bridge, and Porto had no real reason to sell below their release clause. I was getting myself excited for Pereira the player, but I don't think I'd ever have been thrilled for his price tag. Even €22M seemed a little steep, although I wouldn't have thrown anything in rage if we did that. I'm pretty glad that Chelsea weren't crazy enough to pay the full fee Porto were demanding, even if we're missing out on a really neat wingback in the process. Of course, the clubs cutting off negotiations two days before the window closes is exactly what happened in the protracted David Luiz saga with Benfica, and we all know how that turned out, so if you're a Pereira fanatic... well, I wouldn't let your hopes die completely. http://www.footballc...reports-dn.html

No, but I've heard Arsenal want him. We can loan them at any time as long as it isn't to another Premier League club because of squad registrations, or unless it is part of an emergency loan. In that case you are right in saying it has to be by the close of a transfer window.

I could not agree more. This is why I hate the concept of hindsight. At the time, the two of them were coming in off of their greatest seasons yet in their careers - why sell them? However we should have cut our losses with Essien at that point.

Lenny Pidgeley once played against us for Watford in the FA Cup whilst on loan there... I imagine the same courtesy will be extended to de Bruyne, but with the promise his family will be killed if he scores and we go on to lose against Genk.

@CarloFan: #CFC will not meet Pereira's release clause of £26.5m according to Telegraph.

No thanks. And pleeeaaaseeee check if there is already a topic thanks.
