Shane 2,275 Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Thought its worth noting the way we seem to be operating in the transfer market now, and worth praising.Our board has gotten abuse about our transfer policy and the way we sign players, But currently we've signed a two young players already for next season, In positions that need strengthing. The Marko Marin transfer took everyone by suprise and was kept underwraps until it was annouced, and now out of the blue it seems Hulk is on his way.Are we seeing a change in comparsion to 'Be linked with him all summer, and lose him at the last minute' ala Robinho, Or 'Ok, Aguero said he'll join us, lets just wait and the sign him'.If we continue to conduct our dealings in this manner we could pull of some great signings, It eliminates rivals like City or Madrid hearing about it and outbidding us.Clap clap Chelsea board.

Tomo 21,751 Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 I think Ron Gourlay has been reading Talk Chelsea and taking our advice on transfers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoSalah 8,889 Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 We need to move quicker in the transfer windows, get our business done early, especially this summer with Euro 2012 coming up..... don't want to sit negotiating with a club and then see that player do well at the Euros and have their prices inflate because of that.Anyway that Hulk deal better be confirmed in the next few days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get Hulk and Moutinho in quickly with a respected manager and we'll be striking terror in the league before the season even starts.Just image how positive winning the CL would be for our transfer prospects.

Shane 2,275 Posted May 13, 2012 Author Share Posted May 13, 2012 Fernando Torres. That's all I have to say. To be fair, it was completed in 3 days or something, Not bad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winning the CL would make us a much more attractive option for some players as well and we'd be back in the CL for the season coming up too.

Shogun 721 Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 You bought Lakuku for £18m, that isn't cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisenberg 1,824 Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 It's strange seeing our board making clever moves.. Its not normal.About Marin we'll know if he was a good buy or not , he didn't play a lot of matches this year , i just hope that he'll play like he did in the 2009-2010 season.

Bridge Soldier 9 Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 You bought Lakuku for £18m, that isn't cheap.£13m + add-ons. Sell on value as well if he doesn't succeed here. Not sure what your point is though since the OP wasn't so much about cost as publicity I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 The thing is, we'll make these quiet deals (and we've done this for a while) but then the board goes ape-shit crazy about lack of publicity and somehow manages to drag out a transfer prospect. I have a feeling this summer it will be Hulk, despite what media reports are saying about an 'agreement'. I'm sure Porto will deny this and it'll keep dragging through the whole summer and we'll sign someone like Rodellega instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Wait, wait, we are getting Hulk???? :dude: :woo: Well the deal seems very likely to go through. Hulk's agent has said he will leave. We have been chasing him for a while. We're assuming he wants to come to Chelsea. All the pieces seem to be falling in place for an eventual deal. Keep in mind however, we could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
