Fernando

So can anyone answer this. How in the world PSG and Monaco get away with FFP? Cause City has a big loss, but it would not matter as the PL is bringing a lot of money now from TV. So they can use that excuse as to improvement in the future. Not to mention all the endorsement they can get. But how will these two clubs get by this, giving that French League is not a big money generator?

What a buzz kill.

Brazilians girls are beautiful!!!! Hook me up with one when ever I go to Brazil for the World Cup next summer. :blue scalf:

So then did Mourinho engineer his exit at Madrid? The Dortmund nightmare? If so epic!

That's another great signing from Swansea. Him with Altidore where the top dogs from that league. And I think both will do a decent job for both of their teams.

For me you are overdoing it with the Ronaldinho comparison. In the brief time that Ronaldinho was top dog, that was probably the best I ever seen in my whole life! Better then Messi and Ronaldo combine. He was just epic and out of this world. If he would have hold that form for a couple of years, he could have easily been the best player ever of the history of this sport. That being said, Hazard is good but nowhere near close the level that Ronaldinho was.

Barca to pay Neymar’s dad €40m as Santos get just €9m http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/blogs/pitchside-europe/barca-pay-neymar-dad-40m-santos-just-9m-111428982.html If this is true, well done DAD!

Lets get this party started!

Once you go black you don't go back! :eyebrows:

Chelsea is spying on us and taking our ideas.

BTW, this goalie was mention in this thread before we where even for him. Is Emanolo taking ideas from our talkchelsea community?

Yeah so happy with Emanolo. And one thing that Mourinho clearly mention in his first interview is how this department has improve from the past time he was here. So he also recognizes quality when he sees it. Not that crazy guy that alienate everyone around him as journos make him sound. Now I'm starting to have a very good feeling for this season. Just need one more signing like De Rossi and we are good!

Fucking Epic! lol that is what I shouted in my office when I saw this!

I actually think anything above 40 million should be a good sell. I like David Luiz and is my favorite player, but sometimes when you get an offer that is too good to be true you have to take it. Cause they never come back. Remember when offers came for Bosingwa, Kakuta, Essien, Kalou and such? But we never took it! Well sometimes you have to. I don't mean selling players on just the market, but above market inflated price as other clubs do to us.

Yeah thank you Suarez for putting all these rumors to bed.

True, but I will say that we will have a better shot of winning the PL this season if we had gotten someone like Cavani, Falcao or such. But as it stands we will be going with Lukaku, Torres, Ba and Schurrle. Which is all good and stuff. But Lukaku might need one more season before he is top dog. Schurrle just got here so need to adapt. Torres..... Only hope is that Ba suddenly recaptures his Newcastle form and we will be good.

But he follows Mourinho like a sheep, so certainly he should follow Mourinho decision if he wants Suarez????

Pretty much what I said before. They will get better, as in the coming seasons. Which is why I said we will be in better position in the coming seasons as Mourinho said as well. This season is still too soon for me.

It's kinda sad about Sturridge, cause I always thought that Lukaku and Sturridge would have formed a great partnership. We have not had a great two striker partnership since the Gudjohnsen and Hasselbaink time.

All the press/fans targets you mean. Cause as far as Chelsea goes, I have not seen nothing official. Not unlike it was with Schurrle or Van Ginkel.

So he went from a trying to leave England to wanting to play in the champions League? The guy just want out plain and simple. And to be fair he might even consider Chelsea as we got history of dealing with people with problems, in terry and Cole. Not to mention we got Mourinho.

It's called reality! Extreme pessimism will be if we do worse then Benitez last season like finishing outside of top 4.

The coach, and some upgrade. I think Fernandinho is better then Gareth Berry. Navas better then any option that Sinclair can give them. Oh yeah, we have not beat them at all last season. And before you say, "oh we got Mourinho back" that ain't enough when you got a squad that still needs to mature! So combine that with the young squad Chelsea has, we really have no shout for serious contender. Last season was a one horse race, where United blew everyone out by so many points. I will expect it will be the reverse where City blow everyone away, and us and United fighting for second and third. And as Mourinho said, by his second season his team will be better. Just like at Madrid where he won la Liga his second season. I will be expecting the same here, nothing big his first season but much better second season.

That does not makes sense, how do they know that Chelsea refuse to sell at that price unless it was rejected? And nowhere it says it was rejected, if indeed the bid was true.....

But in 2004 we spend a shit load of money on players ready to compete. We now got a team of a lot of younger players, who some still need time to gel. This time is different.
