I think this is the CF we really need to link up with Hazard. Try to get him at all cost.

So he leaves as a free agent? If that so can't he get a pre contract with another team right now?

Yeah second time this is happening. If we keep up with the same shenanigans in the summer he should just walk up and leave like he did at Juventus. He is too good of a manager to be dealing with this crap board.

Goalkeeper issue with Begovic only. Don't see anything else.

Hehe I thought that was funny. He said he didn't see that they lost. That they are still unbeaten. Men Mourinho should have been a Liverpool manager, he would have fit right in with that delusional talk. 😄

I remember Drogba also being problematic at times. Remember getting sent of in that CL final.... Eventually he matured. Here hoping the same with Costa.

I don't believe the Real Madrid rumors. Yes he likes Madrid but that's because of Atletico. And I think he will remain loyal to Atletico and not go to Real. With that being said, Atletico is coming to an end with Simeone almost done. So Courtois a smart guy more then likely will not jump ship but stay with us.

Yes I know I wanted him but most of us agreed that he needed to do a club in europe before coming here. As we had the same problem with Scolari. We was wrong, however I love Conte. I think Conte is better fit for us then Sampaoli would have been.

Vital 3 points. Because if we lose next two games at least we will still have some points ahead. But I believe we can beat Arsenal. Liverpool I don't know.

I would like it if we can also import refs. Pay to get the top refs from all over the world.

Yeah Drogba should be in the club in some sort of capacity. He can still bring a positive atmosphere around him.

I just seen many teams playing the back 3 in the pl.... Overkill?

Okay I take him now.

Yeah but he don't want to come nor Roma sell. I would love him here even if he's older for next season but I still take him.

Atletico's Diego Simeone on Antoine Griezmann: I don't tie anybody down http://www.espnfc.us/story/3041657/atletico-madrid-boss-diego-simeone-says-he-would-not-block-antoine-griezmann-exit I guess United are buying him in the summer.

Five Diego Costa flashpoints that can give Chelsea hope for a reconciliation 1. He wanted to leave Albacete after just 45 minutes 2. He was benched after rowing with an Albacete teammate 3. He threatened to leave Albacete when Martinez was sacked 4. He had to be talked out of firing Jorge Mendes 5. He turned up late and overweight at Atletico demanding to be sold In the summer of 2009, weary from joining a new club on loan every year, Costa returned "10 days late for preseason training" with Atletico and "six or seven kilos overweight", according to Pitarch. "The first thing he said to me was, 'Why should I bother? You obviously don't really rate me, and I'd be happier if you'd just let me go,'" Pitarch told Guillen. Costa also informed Pitarch that he would like to join Vitoria in his native Brazil, and instructed him to begin talks. The Atletico director responded by drawing up a new long-term contract, which his headstrong striker eventually signed. "It's unfortunate, but it's just the way he is," Pitarch told Guillen of Costa. "He sees red for 10 seconds, and then he calms down and turns back into the lovable guy he is, ready to listen to sense and make amends." http://www.espnfc.us/club/chelsea/363/blog/post/3040181/five-diego-costa-flashpoints-that-can-give-chelsea-hope-for-a-reconciliation

Mostly Brazilians. Guess it's a Brazilian fad or something like for them. Anyhow I would sell. Willian is a very limited player and we can do better.

I think Morata is more like Tevez a secondary striker kinda like what Hazard does at times. So that's the difference between Morata and Belotti.

I love Conte, but in this he is wrong. I go with his original analysis stated a couple of weeks ago: Chelsea’s Antonio Conte: Chinese Super League is a danger to all teams • Oscar’s proposed £60m move shows clout of money-flushed China market • Chelsea wanted to keep midfielder ‘but every player must decide his future’ https://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/dec/16/antonio-conte-chinese-super-league-danger-oscar-move-chelsea

Chinese FA confirms limit on foreign players for Super League clubs http://www.espnfc.us/chinese-super-league/story/3039771/chinese-fa-confirms-limit-on-foreign-players-for-super-league-clubs Chinese Super League rule changes could drive prices up, says Beijing football journalist New rules limiting the number of foreign players in the Chinese Super League could drive prices up even further due to competition for squad spaces, according to a Beijing football journalist. http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/10730964/chinese-super-league-rule-changes-could-drive-prices-up-says-beijing-football-journalist Didn't know where to put this, but this was interesting and concerns all clubs as far as China goes...

You think we putting a buy back clause? Who knows he might be good after a season or two? Look at Ryan Bertrand, I would take him right now if we had something similar.

I think he can take over Rooney spot. Mourinho wanted to play Rooney and Ibra, but Rooney is past it. Perfect replacement for that position.

Unlike most of you who are a bunch of knee jerk reaction people I still think he is very limited and should be replaced. One good game does not make a trend, as neither one bad game makes a trend. The overall analysis for me still hold, very limited player that should be one of a squad player. Hopefully we can upgrade in the coming transfer window.

Alonso should have said:

This is like one of those twilight episodes.
