Chelsea chief Gourlay warns rivals spending spree isn't over yet!

Probably Azpi and Hulk.

Chelsea are in negotiations to sign Cavani for £32m, Moses for £7m and Azpilicueta for £8m. (Daily Express)

I've always stated how I don't think Cavani would fit in our system and that I'd prefer Falcao, but in all honesty, I really would cum myself if we signed Cavani.

He's an extremely hard worker on the pitch, a leader, and would just be scary to go up against.

Cavani is a superb player but i just think Napoli would take advantage of our need for a striker and they'll want upwards of 40 million which is crazy even in today's market.

If this is true, then the ambition the club are showing is outstanding. I pity the parallel universe where Chelsea didn't win the Champions League.

I still have no idea who Azpilicueta is but judging by you lot, he's good but i haven't posted in his thread because quite frankly, i don't know him from Adam. Seems we're gonna get 2 more signings, unbelievable really. I've never been so excited being a Chelsea fan. This actually eclipses 2003 for me even tho that's when Roman came. Pre season has been rather shite but the actual premiership season is gonna be so different from that.

A bit gutted tho that Oscar and Mata won't be available for the Community Shield. I'd love to see us give Man City a big shot up the arse and stuff them, sending out a big message to them and everyone else.

The choice of words bodes quite well - 'positions'. Gourlay is quite clearly inferring we have multiple targets lined up, not just in the sense of multiple positions, but also a quota of potential signings. The fact we've done the bulk of our transfer work early (Marin, Hazard, Oscar - even de Bruyne and Cahill can be included in this) suggests that we've learned our lesson in the transfer market. The positions Gourlay is hinting at are most likely RB and a forward position. We all know this probably means Cesar Azpilicueta and Victor Moses, but I think we've still got another big signing in us this summer.

If this is true, then the ambition the club are showing is outstanding. I pity the parallel universe where Chelsea didn't win the Champions League.

What a frightening reality. Besides possibly Marin, who wanted to reinvent himself in a foreign league, would we have signed any of these players? Moses possibly as it is a step up from Wigan, but Oscar, Hazard, Cavani? Not a chance. We have so much to thank Drogba for.

The problem with this is that if we signed all three, I'd go into cardiac arrest from excitement and I'd never get to see that team play...

Hope it's a RB and quality Striker.

I'm not sold on Cavani. Obviously he is an incredible forward, but I really don't think he'd suit the di Matteo tika-taka system. Part of his success at Napoli is functioning in the counter-attack they play. I think because he is physical like Drogba, people are expecting him to be a similar sort of player, but he is almost totally different. Great aerial prowess, yes, but he is a South American forward. Very much so a penalty box poacher, as opposed to the all-round beast that Didier is.
