Miguel Veloso?

I remember his ability as a youngster, United and Arsenal scouted him more than once at Sporting CP.

Veloso won't off the radar after moving to Ukraine

He's a good midfielder, has the skillset to play CM/DM and at 27, he's the perfect age

Jose Mourinho is considering a loan deal for Fabio Coentrao in January (Mail)

I hope its true.

Mendes on Matic: "He has a release clause of €50m but Benfica could deal a lower fee. CFC is very interested and would like to bring him back"

How is Matic's passing and playmaking ability?

Where does that leave us with HG players? Already we don't have enough to register a full squad. Now one HG left-back will be replaced by Coentrao? I doubt it

For January it would be nice to just get some extra cover for the pivot. with MVG out there is a real danger of a Ramires injury. Lamps can't play every game and I don't really trust the old bison.

I'm sure @Melanicus will love to see that happening.

No striker coming in january according to Mou in the press conference

[nadavTKL 1,787]

No strikers in January. But why dont they ask him about other positions?!

[Thendo 1,088]

Also on the subject of Coentrao, José said he doesn't want portugese players.

I think Cole will stay and fight for his place but if anyone is going to affected by this move,then it'll be Ryan Bertrand.I

f this move does happen then I am certain that he will leave us for and that too for Liverpool as they desperately require the services of a left back and with 2 ex chelsea players already there with Brendan as the manager,Ryan certainly won't mind the move at all.

I would like to know what some of you think about the topic center midfield at Chelsea.

Specifically, I look at the prospect of Chelsea buying a top center midfielder in the January window and I cannot understand why any top center midfielder would want to come to Chelsea during a World Cup year given Chelsea's reputation or recent history of playing Frank Lampard in center midfield. Why would anyone WANT to come to Chelsea this January? Chelsea are stumbling, still slow in attack and I suspect that something is at play between Lampard and Mourinho (and the World Cup year).

Something stinks (and has been stinking for x-number of seasons now).

I would like to know what top player is foolish enough to come to Chelsea in January during a WC year given what has occurred so far this season. Chelsea can promise something, but who would believe a representative of CFC at this point?

How about this prediction?

Either get another center midfielder in or forget about qualifying for next season's Champions League.

Or:

Did re-signing Frank Lampard last summer portend the 3rd straight season wherein Chelsea struggle to qualify for the Champions League?

Third time is a charm? Needed to fail terribly before moving onward?

I think Song and Toure are quite similar players...remember Toure before he joined City? He was in very similar situation as Song is atm. Both were forced to sit on bench, due to Sergio busquets. Barca played them in defence if that was required, both got unhappy etc.

Their abilities are very similar, both like to bomb forward, have great ball control (Song made dozen assists in last season at Arsenal). They are overrated in defensive sense, because neither Song or Yaya are great tacklers. And they are oftenly out of possition.

I remember Toure who was known as good player, but just once he came to City and got main role, he become world class. Song was amazing in Arsenal aswell, we might give a shot and sign Song in january/summer. He cost Barca around 18mio, Im sure we can risk 18mio for someone like Song.
