Non-Chelsea Transfer Pub

[Reddish-Blue 2,369]

For the right price we could get him. Top 5 cb in the world, for me.

We could get him for the right price but Boateng (IIRC) said in an interview that he was glad he left England and City, he didn't enjoy the culture and he likes playing in the Bundesliga

[Belgiannutt 3,201]

In :

-homegrown goalkeeper like Ruddy,

-Raphael Varane,

-Chalobah or RLC if he's "the one" as a Matic cover,

-potentionally world-class midfielder like Pogba or Koke,

-Bertrand Traore if he can secure his work permit. If not, Malcom lad from Corinthians or Talisca from Benfica,

-Mauro Icardi or Paulo Dybala. Basically a striker with technical abilities. Icardi is a tailor-made Mourinho player with attitude and mental characteristics. But I'd rather have Dybala since he has a proper, exquisite technique. Jose picks.

Out :

-Cech (he wants to leave)

-Cahill (I don't want him to leave but don't think he'll stay as a 4th option. Also he could recoup decent sum, since he's reliable defender with tons of Premier League pedigree. Most clubs will try to find reliable players in the summer to help them stay in the Premier League and help them get their hand on new Premier League-bonanza so I think he could fetch nice figure),

-Mikel (it's time to go since he's got his British passport. Also he's in no way a back-up to Matic since he's doesn't possess any pressing ability. I think it's finally time one of our youngster to take that spot),

-Oscar (only if we need money. He is our biggest asset left in our pool of talents so who knows. But I'd much rather want him to stay and be an excellent squad option)

-Remy (it's clear that Jose doesn't trust him. So what's the point ? Better when Jose will have his pick as a second option since Remy is not. It's clear that he's treated here as another Ba, a stop-gap bought because he happened to be cheap and easy obtainable with release-clause. I think regarding his sell it's similar to Cahill, he is reliable striker who I think will help any club staying in the Premier League so if anyone want to have a strong option to help them touch the new Premier League deal and survive the next season, Remy is one of the hottest prospects for those clubs.)

-Moses,

-Marin, Piazon, Wallace, Romeu, McEachran

-maybe Atsu, Van Ginkel, Kalas, Omeruo if decent offert arrives but rather another loan to raise their value

If there is money in the bank left we should secure Youri Tielemans as soon as possible.

Agree with everything. That would be a magnificent squad.

Can't believe we used to have Essien/Ballack in midfield! Now, were left with Mikel and Ramires

Hopefully we sign a quality CM at the end of the season....someone that can ease the workload of Matic

and some said Ballack slowed us down ... He was probably one of our best ever signings . I just wish we could get him and Zola to take over the Academy

Even barcelona couldnt buy boateng, how the fk are we going to do it?

Its near impossible to buy top bayern Players, even fking real Madrid couldnt buy prime Ribery for 85€Million.

No chance bro

It's worth a shot. Boateng is not prime Ribery. They have Benatia and Ribery

[We Hate Scouse 10,287]

Sissoko would be a great addition.

[OneMoSalah 8,795]

Out - Oscar, Cahill, Ramires, Mikel, Drogba

In - Koke, Varane, Chalobah, Loftus-Cheek, Bamford.

Koke and Varane are possible players we could sign but no way Chalobah, RLC and Bamford will replace Ramires, Mikel and Drogba.

Ramires is still a key player here, I don't get the need why people keep saying he needs to go or that I don't even think Pogba is as good as him yet and he's the guy everyone wants to replace him. 'He is future of CM' 'He will be top 5 player in the world eventually' Bla Bla Bla not buying it

Also that Dybala kid from Palermo, hes a good player but 30M or whatever hes rated at, no chance.

I think the PSG game mate absolutely highlighted how incredibly useless Ramires is in the final third or anywhere outside the 18 when attacking the goal.

[LAM09 6,807]

I think he should be going for Calhanoglu. He ticks quite a few boxes, and would be available for a reasonable price.

I like him too , but I'm not sure about reasonable price

[LAM09 6,807]

I like him too , but I'm not sure about reasonable price

I personally think we could get him for around the £25m mark at max. Could for someone like him in this market.

[iseah100 5,612]

Hector Herrera![emoji12]

[lucio 5,418]

Hector Herrera![emoji12]

A fine pair of lungs on that guy. And quality all round too, both in the world cup and cl. Casemiro also looks great at porto in the cl

Porto's midfield is something else. Potential dark horse in the Cl.

[Fernando 6,489]

Hopefully we can get rid of Ramires and Mikel.

We need upgrade to these two.

Oscar I'm in the middle. While I want him gone I do acknolwedge he can be a good sub.

But if a good offer or player swap comes up, hopefully we consider it.

I don't like Cahill and hopefully that fool is sold. But most likely he will stay.

Other then that I can't think of anything else unless we are not satisfied with Willian and Cuadrado....

I would be more than happy with a new midfielder (preferably strong, aggressive, good stamina, good first touch) & a CB capable of filling Terry's spot in the next 2 years

I do agree that we should upgrade Mikel and Ramires...but I don't see either of them being sold

[supporter 3,088]

Hello everyone!

I think we need primarily to sign 5 players for next season.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. A TOP Centre-Back. My favorite would be Varane (Real Madrid). Also Varane also played with Jose Real Madrid as Right-Back. Obviously It would be just for emergencies, but for Jose is important to have versatile players.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. A TOP midfielder. My favorite is Koke (Atletico de Madrid). A player like Fabregas, with many similar characteristics in quality, distribution of the ball and ability to organize a team with authority. Koke could be a perfect backup for Fabregas also able to play with him in a perfect midfield with Matic - Koke - Fabregas.

Maybe Pogba is a very risky option with an extortionate / unjustified price. Pogba has many extravagant features that make me doubt about his signing.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3. A replacement for Mikel. Jose is a major player when it comes to securing a result. But perhaps Mikel takes too much time with us and we need fresh air in our midfield.

At this point I think it's harder to find a player that accepts have the same role that Mikel has had with us. My favorites are Giannelli Imbula (Olympique de Marseille), Kondogbia (Monaco) or Javi Martinez.

A. Giannelli Imbula (Marseille). Perhaps the best option. Imbula has some characteristics between Mikel and Ramires. He is a player Box to Box but which defends very well with a great tactical sense. My favorite option.

B. Kondogbia (Monaco). More than Imbula defense. Maybe it is a more like Mikel player. A player capable of recovering many balls in midfield and distribute the ball with a sense but without risks. Kondogbia has an important physical deployment. An interesting option.

C. Javi Martinez. In Spain it is said that he can leave Bayern Munich this summer, but he just got out of an important knee injury. This option raises many doubts me.

But Jose has used this season Zouma in midfield with good results, although I think Zouma must be consolidated as our Centre-Back for the future because he is more likely to evolve as Centre-Back for his great performance.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4. A Centre forward. We need someone to cover the place of Didier Drogba (Didier will be working on the technical team Jose the following season). I think it's difficult to find a player who assume he comes with us to be backup of Diego Costa.

For example, last week a famous Spanish football program Lewandowski Always thought that was very close to signing for Real Madrid (I think this news is pure sensationalism). Lewandowski is a great player, but he would hardly accept to come with us to be behind Diego Costa. The same happens with Kane.

To me the options would be the following players.

A. Icardi (Inter). According to the reports say he is the favorite of Jose to replace Drogba. He is a good player, young, with great capacity to score goals and he is nine puree. An interesting option but a player who has had extrasport behavior problems.

B. Paulo Dybala (Palermo). A very similar to Kun Aguero player. Dybala is young (21) and is one of the players with more future. Reports say that many of the big teams in Europe are sticking by him. Reports say that his price is 45 million pounds, but this is crazy because his contract with Palermo ends in 2016, so its price would be much lower. A good project for the future that could be very interesting for us and our future.

C. Anderson Talisca (Benfica). I know that Talisca is not a specific forward but he has a espectacurales characteristics to be a Centre forward in the future. His natural position is offensive midfielder, but Jose commented that could be a big Centre forward in the future. Jose is a big fan of Talisca, including Jose said Talisca is not playing right now in England by passport issues but Jose says that Talisca has the level to be in England. I think Talista is a great option.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5. The Legend: Lionel Messi. It's now or never. Messi has had many problems in / with Barcelona in recent times and probably he will change his team this summer.

We have Fabregas, his best friend, and a coach like Jose Mourinho with whom has had many gestures of appreciation between both in recent months.

In Spain everyone (even the newspapers of Catalonia) assume that Messi is living his last days in Barcelona. Maybe if Barcelona won several trophies this season Messi could say goodbye to Barcelona through the front door.

Messi has been in London last week eating with Deco and Fabregas. Gradually Messi is giving signs that bind their future with us (Messi begins to follow on Instagram us, his good words for Jose, his visits to London with his girlfriend and his son, Messi has never categorically denied a possible signing for us ...).

Messi would suppose the consolidation of Roman´s project.

Messi is a historic opportunity for us. With the support of Adidas and other sponsors like Yokohama The dream of Messi is possible.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Obviously signing all these players is practically impossible. But I think our roadmap for the transfer market of this summer could be similar to those players that I mentioned in this post.

Regards to ALL.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Recall our loanees

GK - if Cech want to stay, Blackman as 3rd

CB - Omeruo, Kalas

MC - Romeu, Van Ginkel, Chalobah, RLC

AM - Atsu, Moses, Salah, Piazon, Baker

FW - Bamford

But we're Chelsea so this will never ever happened. Probably we will buy 3 more players with values 30+ millions each.
