Non-Chelsea Transfer Pub

De Gea?

[Spike 12,049]

De Gea?

I'm staying in Manchester. I've no plans to leave for Barça.

[Vulture 10]

Víctor Valdés is reportedly ready to leave Barcelona. He does not want to renew his contract so the club will most probably sell him in the summer. Barcelona have known about his decision for a longer period of time. Soooo...

Who is going to be their new number one? Will they try to sign Petr Cech? Pepe Reina? Or Courtois? I would say, Courtois not available for less than 30m?

Weird for Valdes to leave Barcelona... why the hell would he do that? And which club would buy him?

To replace Valdes, there is Guaita... I've also heard about Ter Stegen (M'Gladbach), De Gea and of course... Courtois

[Spike 12,049]

Why?

There's 2 weeks left for godsake...

We could be in negotiations to sign 732 players from Yugoslavia for all we know.

Nothing at all to suggest there won't be any more activity

It would be quite the achievement to sign 732 players from a country that doesn't exist anymore. In Roman we trust.

I don't know really. Maybe he wants to be more busy during a game Would be interesting how much Fergie would want for De Gea.

But you never know, right?

True. It could happen.

I have a gut feeling Chelsea are done with the January transfer window. They have enough loanees who are capable of contributing next season rather than go buy more.

I feel somewhat opposite, I think we'll sign someone on the last week or last day even

[nadavTKL 1,787]

Also, I feel Chelsea are not attracting too many players, lately.

One may ask why ?

Managers are not knocking on Roman´s door either.

However, If I had spent 1 billion on something, I would not want too many people telling me what to do either.

I just pray something works out for the club, soon. Otherwise, Chelsea are in deep troubles, I feel.

What do you mean by "not attracting too many players" and "Managers are not knocking on Roman´s door", it sounds like some nice slogans and not much more. The only thing that realy happend lately is that Pep chose Bayern. "Players"? dont know anything about that, maybe your talking about Taison and Aspas?

I also dont think something got to happen soon, the club's goals for the next months are:

1. Get a CL spot. Something we're still favourits to get, with this squad too.

2. Sign a new-very good manager (Mourinho, Klopp, Simeone), probably need to happen until June.

If we wont be able to get those two goals, than we're probably in deep troubles for me.

Speaking about slogans. I see two above.

Have you read the sport pages, lately ?

Many explain why managers are skeptical to sign for Chelsea.

As for CL spot, I hope you are correct & the club secures CL for next year.

Currently, the way I see it. It won´t be an easy task with the thin squad.

Why should i care about sport pages? the reasons for not wanting to come to manage Chelsea are clear to everyone, but until it will happen and Roman will not be able to find a new, promising/proved and desired manager like he did so far, i dont see a reason to panic. Its only January, did you expect we'll reveal a new manager by now?

When a manager comes to Chelsea he also knows he's gonna get load of money and have a chance to prove himself in one of the best clubs in the world, those are two things that are hard to resist. Im sure that there are top managers that will never agree to come to Chelsea, but im sure there are some who will.

what 2 slogans? you dont think those are our goals for now?

To lose the CL spot theres got to be two teams that are better than us, i dont see how Spurs+ Arsenal/Everton are better. What im saying is that for now, we are in the best position, but i didnt say it will be easy.

[Hutcho 8,443]

I would be truly surprised if we didn't have another signing and we always end up getting someone on deadline day generally so with 2 weeks to go I think we probably will... But stranger things have happened.

Thin is relative. Imo we have at least the 3rd best squad in epl. So top 3 is minimum requirements

No, I do not expect any new manager in January. I´d rather see new players asap.

The top managers Jose, Pep are not in it for the money. They do have plenty.

As you see those 3 teams are not better than Chelsea, perhaps you have a point. We need to wait & see.

Nonetheless anything can happen. As I see it. The team is in need to buy more players now. If no one comes in, then watch out.

Thin means. There is hardly anyone sitting on the bench to relief the starters.

Have we not seen Mata for example not played well in the odd game ? We all know, what happened, then.

[Thomas Williams 166]

Tottenham's squad is close to as good as ours, but I think our squad is way better than everton and arsenal. In 1/3 of our games we look like the best team in the EPL.

[bushman 2,043]

Chelsea do look fantastic at times but more consistency is needed & the killer instinct.

Well, we will see on Sunday against Arsenal whether the team is way better.
