Strike

1-2 years ago, we'd get him and send him on loan but as BlueLyon said we already have Atsu and others. The timing is wrong to sign him

metro are quoting abola. any idea how reliable they are?

maybe chelsea can take it out of his salary, similar to Ander Herrera

surprise surprise Goal.com are wrong

any reported price?

not comparing those players to shaw. that's weird. it just shows you can get good defenders for cheap prices.

why not? if he was to stay in brazil with uruguay team, he would provoke a reaction from the fans, the opposition etc during matches and looking at how he acted like a massive twat on the touchline 4 years ago vs Ghana (after getting sent off) , FIFA are spot on to send him packing

THIRD bite

No left back is worth 30million. the back four of Zabaleta Cahill Kompany Baines cost less than Shaw

why is he allowed to move either?

Hahaha. Liverpool can't even appeal

how come he's banned for 12 club games and only 9 international games?

signed a new contract. i like him even more now

24 match ban is not enough

Good

joel campbell back from loan

great. now retire from international football and devote all your time to sticking it to the gooners

david luiz would have been useful then

he must be shit at the game

he will be around the first team i think. was untouchable last season. can see him getting games at RB and as CB now that Luiz is gone

meant first team.

the club and Mourinho value long serving players for the captain's role. the longest serving player around the first team (assuming courtois replaces cech) will be Ivanovic, he is a bit temperamental. I remember the game against West Brom last season. after Ivanovic it's Cahill, so I'll say Cahill for the short term when JT leaves. but it's weird to think Cahill is one of the longest serving players at the club. he's only been here 2 years

Burnley and Leicester are somewhat an unknown quantity at the start. The schedule is not kind
