Gary Cahill

Well, since we look likely to seal the deal, how does everyone think he'll do with the high line and Andre's football philosophies in the future?

I personally think we should abandon it. There is nearly no good examples of high lines being effective in the premier league in recent years.

No he didn't, Tomo, I live in Leicestershire and thus I'm surrounded by Leicester fans, including a very good friend of mine who is the most tactically-astute person I have ever met, he is currently studying for his coaching licences. He said Bruma was as good as useless, he scored a few goals to his credit but he was underwhelmed by his lack of defensive ability and his poor concentration, and he was always the weak link when he was played. His consistency was also an issue. He was impressed with van Aanholt though, he said he has a bright future though that may not be at EPL level.

I don't understand why Bruma is suddenly a defensive messiah, though?

So he struggled with Leicester, he isn't the only CB that has struggled at one time or another and had a hard time settling in with his new team. ex: I watched Vincent Kompany on a regular basis for HSV, and he was the weak link of that defense and a flop signing. Now look at him now he is the best CB in the PL and arguably the best CB in the world.

Bruma is quality he showed that during his time with theReserves and now with Hamburg. Really think you are being unfair judging Bruma quality solely based on his Leicester stay.

Cahill is not Chelsea quality, a mid table player imo.

Him and Terry played very well for England, looking like a very promising partnership. Good signing if we do get him that is.

Cole - Terry - Luiz/Cahill - Ivanovic

It sounds so much more solid than with Bosingwa in the team

I would've thought Luiz-Cahill would be the partnership

A good move by the club

[Slam Dunk 1,442]

Fee of £5m being reported by BBC. Seems a decent bit of business.

[francozola 2,040]

5m would be an excellent price

It will be if Suarez' ban is anything to go by.

SkySports say £7m.. 0% profit for Bolton at £5million

Brilliant news and it looks like we could nab a bargain.
