Looks like he's off to Bayern

I think he's off to United. Apart from Herrera and Carrick, United don't have a midfielder.

Etoó and Ibra? but yeah, can't think of any other. it's rare

I'm hoping Cuadrado still has a shining reputation in Serie A. Throw him in as make-weight in the deal. Salah will go to Fiorentina. Why would Cuadrado and Salah both go to Juve and compete for the same position? As for Oscar, I still believe he will have strong seasons for Chelsea in his prime. Would not sell him

Doubt anyone would mind if this deal fell through

Won't tarnish his memory for me. Gave the club over 10 stable seasons as a goalkeeper, injuries aside. And particularly, that night in Munich. He was very assured in the shootout. Went the right way for all six penalties and saved three of them. His time at Arsenal will be hardly significant. Maybe a Capital One Cup somewhere

http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/33224243 United want Ramos and Schweinsteiger. Would be a star-studded lineup if they get both

They will strengthen. But then, unlike Lampard's case, Chelsea have control over this transfer. I would hold off from selling Cech to them

Worried by the lack of transfer activity. This time last year, Fabregas was signed, Costa and Luis were done deals.

This forum surprises me

Has to be left sided.

Good news.

City won't sell him to us. He's going to Inter or Juve

Not even close. the brief 2009 run under Hiddink was great too. The team beat Juventus, Liverpool and only lost to Barca on away goals that year. Won the FA Cup beating Arsenal and Everton. Overall, lost only one game - vs Spurs. I was pretty sure Hiddink would take over after Carlo left in 2011. Was very surprised by the appointment of Villas Boas.

I would pick him up. Reus and Griezmann are better options but I don't think either of them are coming to the club. To the people pointing at his scratchy finishing - I think it's something that will develop. By the time he's 24-25 he'll be a big talent - something like Daniel Sturridge is now.

Cap?

I always feel nothing will ever come close to this. The period of three months from Napoli home to the final.

then again Costa knows what he can get away with. Fabregas was the one who lost his marbles

Stupid from Fabregas. Ruins chance for couple of youngsters getting minutes in the second half and more importantly misses first two games of next season. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid

Nobody has seen him play. Just wait and watch how he plays before the Piazon comparisons

I would pay 80mil for Bale Jake Cohen at WAGNH calculated the other day that Chelsea have about 130 million to spend this summer. It looks like he's researched on the FFP limitations and recent squad transfers and come up with that number. Chelsea can afford to spend 130 million this summer In that case, I wouldn't mind the club attempting to sign Bale since the squad doesn't have many glaring areas in need of reinforcements. Bale is a top player and I think he would take charge of games and win the club matches on his own. He's still 25, has thrived in England, has very good shooting and finishing skills. I don't see any alternative that's close to Bale for the right wing.

i think he'll develop it. Still only 20

not even close

Fabregas Matic will start all necessary matches.RLC in the less important matches. Ahead of Mikel. I think it's time to start trusting the youngsters a bit more. Wasn't that the whole point from the beginning? About integrating youngsters? I remember the promises Jose made in the beginning but he later clarified that he had to put the youth integration on hold saying that the first team needs to be consolidated first. Well, the club is getting there. League champions by a distance. Losing only 2 away matches. I think next season, a couple more youngsters can make the step up. Ake, Loftus Cheek.
