Look at Frank's face when that lady asks him "how does it feel to be a Man City player for the next six months?". Haha, I bet that if someone else would have asked him the exact same question four months ago, he would have had the same reaction, plus another one or two minutes of uncontrollable laughter You can see by the way that he speaks about City that the guy isn't taking this seriously. I know he's a pro, but my feeling is that Franks going to be Jose's inside man at Carrington. Just wait for the Etihad game

I can't believe you are panicking over a rumour launched by Marca. That's third world journalism, just like the Daily Star and The Sun. edit: Personally, I would add Marca to that first page list, together with Tribalfootball and Goal. That's how bad they are.

Manquillo after signing for Liverpool: "When they tell you Liverpool want to sign you, I think like any player, you are going to be absolutely amazed and you don't think of anything else than going straight there." That's so ridiculous, it's not even funny anymore.

Chelsea #1 and Tottenham & Liverpool out of the Top Four. This is the perfect scenario for me, although I would also prefer Everton to win Arsenal's 4th spot trophy. But I don't think it will happen. Man what a season this would be if Chelsea is crowned EPL champions and Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham all miss on Champions League Football.

Bayern have confirmed the transfer of Pepe Reina for €2.5m And apparently Madrid will listen to offers for Xabi. I would not be surprised if he'll end up playing for Liverpool this season to be honest.

Awesome mate hahah

Apparently the move to Everton is off because Chelsea does not feel he will get enough minutes there.

John Aldridge is so deluded. On Benzema saying Liverpool is not big enough for his ambitions: ‘He’s a decent striker but he can’t even get his place in Real Madrid, he plays a bit part. ‘It’s quite shocking to disrespect a club of Liverpool’s global stature with them words.’

£10m for Rodwell, man wtf is wrong with Sunderland?

I remember Allegri laughing at the journalists and mocking them when asked if there is any chance for Ibrahimovic and Thiago Silva to leave. Then a couple of days later Paris came with an offer and closed the deal in the blink of an eye. If Chelsea, United, Madrid want Vidal and Pogba, they will have them. If they want, these teams can have the entire team of Juventus and their stadium too, plus any other player in the Italian league. Vidal is still at Juventus because United is yet to make an official offer. The moment Van Gaal gives the green light there is nothing left to do for Juventus. The same goes for Pogba - if he (and Vidal) will still be at Juventus come September, that's because the other teams did not want them or thought they are not worth the money, not because they were rejected by fucking Juventus. These two transfers are in the hands of Van Gaal and Mourinho, they are orchestrating the moves, not anybode else. They just have to approve the transfers and the Chelsea and United boards will pick up from there and close the deals in a day or two.

Never gets old on topic - Mateo Musacchio to Spurs for €21m. Confirmed by Marcelino.

The way Torres kills my mood everytime I watch a Chelsea game is unbelievable. I just hope Diego Costa takes the league by storm so that this fucking fraud can rot on the bench until the end of his bloody contract. First goal he loses possession, fails to foul the opponent so that he can prevent them going on the counter, Chelsea gets exposed and one goal down. Second goal - he misses a sitter, one minute later Werder scores.

Still, I know who I'd pick to come off the bench at the Etihad or Anfield. Mikel might not be the best defensive midfielder in the world, but he is a decent squad player.

If I had not seen him playing, I would think Vidal is a poor mans Romeu judging by your description. Add creativy and flair to that list and you have Iniesta, too. Lol

So if Mikel is just wasting space at Chelsea FC, what would Romeu bring in to be considered an important part of the team? What's so special about him? His endless sideways passes? The ability to be dispossessed in his own half like no one else? I really don't get the hype around him to be fair.

Tibo

Didn't Jose say Lampard and Cole were offered new deals????

Bollocks

And I was thinking August will be a fun ride......... I'll never forget the day when my mother from her small salary bought me Frank's shirt in 2004. Man I was so proud, I think I wore it for two weeks in a row like a maniac - school, training, everywhere I was going I had the Fly Emirates shirt on me.

I knew this had to somehow be related to Borini rejecting the Sunderland move, but €6.5m per annum for Remy??? No way Mourinho will give him such wages.

Of all the English players in this world it had to be Frank to help City fill the homegrown quota. God I'm so pissed right now

This has to be a joke for Christs sake. What the fuck are you doing Frank????

Count me in too. I find it insulting for a club like Chelsea FC to be linked with this mug. One of the most overrated players in European football. Work rate is his best asset, otherwise he is utter shite. Also the rumoured price is ridiculous, his value is €12-13m at most. When I read a Lavezzi to Chelsea rumour I get the same feeling like I would read a rumour about Chelsea being interested in Cleverley, Agger or Arteta. Why do they always have to pick Chelsea? Can't they link Liverpool or Arsenal to these mugs? Beyond frustrating I tell you, but it's no worse than the Romanian papers linking Chiriches to Chelsea every week. I mean, for Christ's sake, there were at least 50 articles about Mourinho wanting Chiriches this year!

Moreno and Manquillo to Liverpool apparently
