Misleading? It basically means we can go ahead and put a bid for him.

Would rather take Bosingwa back over Van der Wiel.

For all we know, we would probably end up with Van der Wiel...

Why so serious??

According to reports going around, RDM said we can expect 2 more signings before the transfer window closes. Likely to be a RB and a ST.

Would definitely keep Ferreira. Already 33 and last year into his contract. Won't get much at all if we sell him anyway. And he's still a useful squad player to have, when needed. The Benfica game last season was a perfect example to that. Regarding who should come in next, well, it should be a RB. Our next priority. Azpilitcueta seems to be main target now and hopefully, we can get him. Not sure about keeping Malouda but do agree with the point you're making. Too many fans have completely underestimated experience and thinking the new players will just come in and blend in straight away without any help. All just think with players like Terry, Cole and Lampard, they'll be all fine.

6 or 7pm, I think, tomorrow(28th July)..

A case of people underestimating experience when those players can still be useful, even as a squad player for another year or two and overhyping our youth signings too much. Only have to look at Arsenal 4-5 years ago when they sold their experience players and brought in youth.

Personally, not sure about keeping Benayoun especially when it looked like we already have plenty of other options in his position. Think he and Malouda can leave. Keep Meireles and maybe Essien for one more year at least. And yeah, I do agree with the first part there. It totally annoys me lately to see so many Chelsea fans thinking just because we have bought Hazard, Marin, Oscar, KDB etc, we can just toss out the experience players out of the window immediately. It just doesn't work that way!

Enjoy it while it lasts.. RDM is no Avram Grant..

Not really. He got substituted on the 30th minute mark. High-one!

De Gea, see the date of the post!

He was raving about Moura, not Oscar. And no, don't think we're gonna approach him. Just signed a new contract with United recently and although that mean nothing these days, this is United we're talking about. No way Fergie will sell him to us after that happening. All eyes are on Azpilicueta now. If that doesn't work out, then there is still Debuchy or even Pisczek or heck even Van der Wiel(don't want him here of course!) first. Wouldn't want Rafael here anyway. Terrible defender. Similar to Bosingwa.

Just to add, it was against Crystal Palace, courtesy of a strike by Essien.

Reportedly a target for both Spurs and Liverpool.

Looks like he bloody loves camwhoring alright. Never expected Spike to be that kind of person. Disappointing...

That is Spike, the Spike that we all know???

Don't go all pretending there now. His name is way easier to spell compare to someone like Blasczykowski...

Is it that hard for people to spell his name?!

Aah yes. Terry is slow. Already useless. Let's just strip him off his captaincy and sell him. Best for all parties...

Made De Gea looked better than he is... Same. Have been saying that for awhile now. Part 1 is done. Just down to Honduras and Morocco to finish the job..

What?!

Was laughing so badly at those chances that Japan missed! Just couldn't believe my eyes...

We have a tendency to do things the opposite. Last season IIRC, when Drogba was on the pitch, we hardly looked to cross the ball to him. However, when Torres is on, we suddenly started putting more crosses in!
