These puns are fucking awful! Chuffed to be signing a winger. Not a wide midfielder like Malouda, a genuine winger in the mould of Robben. Lovely stuff.

Keep them both and sell Sturridge.

Can't wait to see Kalou score our first goal of the season and earn himself a new five-year contract.

I'm Juandering whether I should lock this to prevent any more awful puns.

If we sign Mata/Hazard as well he will be used very infrequently so a loan would actually be beneficial. But with all respect to the Eredivisie (Vitesse) and the Belgian Super League, I'd rather see him go to on loan to one of the Big Four leagues; EPL, la Liga, Serie A or the Bundesliga 1.

AVB is a clever man, he appreciates Spurs are trying to take us for a ride regarding Modric, so he is looking elsewhere. That means we can go out and spend big on Mata, and if it comes to a bidding war, unless Man City or Real get involved, we will win.

Hilario was brilliant in pre-season, I think that should be enough to reinstall our faith in him, and improve his own confidence.

Me neither, I think it's always slow because of membership issues this time of year.

The only thing that's ironic is that it wasn't me who made it And for the record, I'm not trying to ostracise you. If I wanted to do that, you'd have been banned already. Because I appreciate your contribution as a forumer, I have decided against it on a number of occasions in the hope you would wizen up and stop acting like a pretentious moron. Yet just because you contribute well doesn't mean I have to like your attitude.

Followed by Marton Fulop, Martin Lipton, Muttiah Muralitharan, Magnus Hedmann and Mariah Carey.

Just makes me laugh how suddenly, because we're linked with decent players, we're going to win the league again. Some Chelsea fans have become incredibly fickle and disillusioned since City became big spenders.

Talk about gratitude, it isn't his fault Wenger forgot to renew his contract.

Precisely my point, I'm fed up of Malouda's 60-yard shots.

There was nothing about us and Mata until last night, we come out of nowhere and ambush clubs by paying £10 million more than we need to.

Definitely still in the chase for Modric then.

Torres is trying to persuade him to join? Shows how shit our negotiators are if we have to get our players to send text messages...

It is... 3-0 up about 21 minutes, then Lampard gets sent off for nothing. The red was rescinded, of course. Ash scored his first Chelsea goal in the second half.

Prefer that one personally.

What a waste of time. We need to blood these young players now, not in the 2013/14 season.

Yeah, because City don't already have enough central mids.

Don't write us off until we're out of it.

On a loan deal? YES PLEASE. If it doesn't work out, we won't have lost a penny, besides his wages of course.

I don't see the point in loaning him out straight away.

Same old usual "we're a small club with shit players so we kick people" bollocks you used to get from Sam Allardyce all the time, standard response, but a fair one.

Not a chance as far as I'm concerned.
