Yeboii 1,844 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 This is very true. But to go into a set of fixtures that includes this competition with such a small group is crazy.True, but who knows if there are more players to come.

Korea 734 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 What, I had read that Zouma has good positioning and is great at reading games...I'm like 90% it was about Zouma, maybe it was about Varane.His words...I follow him since he came up from Saint Etienne's Academy and have a lot of friend playing against him since he was a kid.Younger, he was terrific because he was always strongerBut now, he's just a raw player, no technical ability, no intelligence, not even a reader of the game. For the moment he's suspended 4 month after a challenge, but believe me, he's nothing more than a basic Ligue 1 player.For comparison, Rafael Varane is the real deal in France Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
didierforever 7,349 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 out - kdb (17mil), mata (37mil), essien, BA (7mil) = 61milin - matic (21), salah (11mil) = 32mil.so we have about 30 mil to spare. with BA out, i feel we will go for costa. buy-out his clause. if BA does not go we have about 25mil, and we will buy shaw and zouma. i feel that is what the thinking of the club would be right now. its not just for PL/CL but for the future. we are making a team that is here to stay for a long-long time.

robsblubot 3,595 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Only realistic striker target ATM is Costa. Would he be a bet? Sure thing, as top strikers are not for sale ATM.I'd go for him though esp if losing Courtois cannot be avoided. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChelseaFanUK 1,014 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I am as confident as one can get that if Diego Costa ever joins Chelsea, Thibaut Courtois is 100% going other way. Absolutely, for a start by giving him in part ex brings the fee down. If Madrid agree he is worth 25m, and costa buyout is say 32, we give them roughly 7-10m on top and job done.Mark my words Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strike 7,527 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 With two players coming in who aren't eligible for the CL, and two (KDB, Bertrand and potentially five with Mata, Ba and Essien) leaving the club, how small is our Champions League squad looking?I make it 17 players + Blackman, Kalas and van Ginkel.23 were registered. 5 could potentially leave. So, the number comes down to 18 + Kalas, Ake. Probably a striker will be signed and if he's available for CL, should be no problem (or Demba Ba could stay) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkim2 73 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Chelsea has been one of the best teams finding great defenders. I trust their scouting skill and if they see something in Zouma then I will fully back board's decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChelseaFanUK 1,014 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Don't think it'll be Shaw if there is more business after Salah. My guess is [with a realistic head on] Zouma or Guarin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
