Suarez had signed a new contract before Barca swooped in. We'll get him.

Real Madrid aint Liverpool...

Now that Varane extended, we should seriously look at Laporte. Him and Zouma could partner well together in future. But I heard he might be damn expensive (but so will be Varane if we try to steal him from RM).

Chelsea look set to sign Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane in January after Jose Mourinho was given the green light to go ahead with a £19million deal.

The Blues boss has made no secret of his interest in signing France international Varane in the past, and now Mourinho will push for him in the new year.

According to reports, Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich has promised Mourinho the £19million funds need to sign Varane – who is widely rated as one of the best young centre backs around.

Chelsea are desperate to grab another defender in the new year to bolster their options, with Barcelona’s Gerard Pique being strongly linked.

I wish you were right... But who would be available, cheap enough and most importantly better than what we have?

Well, I'm not even sure if we should sign a CB. Ivanovic could replace Terry and I also believe in Zouma.

It's hard to tell if a CB would fit in or not. Cahill played for the worst team in the Premier League when we signed him. Bolton's defense was a mess, but he had the potential and was confident enough to perform very well against Barcelona and Bayern München. On the other hand, Khalid Boulahrouz was quite expensive but turned out to be an awful player, so it's really not easy to predict.

I think N'Koulou, Laporte, Musacchio, Inigo Martinez, Manolas or De Vrij all have the potential to become a starter at Chelsea and they could be all available for a couple of millions. Varane has just extended his contract, I can't see Real Madrid letting him go.
