looks like what I said in the Garay thread was spot on!

Mourinho didn't rate him at all at Real Madrid, can't see this happening.

for a team like west ham or southampton maybe

I remember Mourinho barely played him at Real Madrid, so strange that he would want him, he clearly isnt a world class defender and clearly doesnt have the potential to become world class, i doubt we will sign him, probably trying to use him to make Stones panic and hand in a transfer request.

In the unlikely event that Ivanovic doesn't start, i would like to see Hazard given the Captains armband. Courtois Azpilicueta - Cahill - Zouma - Baba Matic Cesc - Oscar Pedro - Costa - Hazard © Chelsea 4 Palace 1 Costa x2 Pedro Oscar

anyone know how much Pedro is earning here?

and people wanted us to spend big on Griezmann, he would never have been able to put in a performance like that at RW, and after the red card, there is no doubt Griezmann would have been the one taken off not Willian.

Liverpool fans once said the same thing, they said there is no way they would sell Torres so late in the transfer window...

Zouma needs to get on the phone to Pogba!

you have never seen Pogba get forward? he does it all the time, there were even times where Tevez would drop off and Pogba would run into the box with Morata. He is more then just a ball winner

thats because he isnt someone who will control games in midfield he is a box to box midfielder, he will put in tackles then pass to a team-mate, then he will get forward into the box and try to get on the end of crosses. He isnt someone who will have the ball all the time and try to create like a David Silva

harsh.

i thought Pedro can only play well when he is under Messi's umbrella?

was i right, or was i right about Pedro... What a debut!

seriously what happened to him? he was supposed to be the next big thing in world football. I remember watching his goal against Barca in 2011 and thinking this guy is going to be one of the best strikers on the planet! then it all went downhill from there.

i know when Mourinho is telling the truth and when he isnt

except Mourinho already said he isnt going out on loan.

100% agree. Witsel is bang average, Ramires is easily better.

so now that we have bid for Pogba we might as well put bids in for Verratti, Koke and Modric while were at it.

does the Sun have a history of saying a fee has been agreed and its turned out to be BS?

Man City are mental if they spend £50m on De Bruyne!

This transfer will go down to the wire and i have a feeling we will get it done...

are you a fortune teller?

no if he came here im sure people would have their reservations, and he barely improves their team, so i dont see how his signing makes them favorites.
