Although unlikely, would anyone mind not getting Milner considering he's HG and all?

If we needed a midfielder I'd say definitely, James is really underrated. But we really don't, so it'd be an unnecessary signing. We're stacked in midfield.

He can play out wide as well, even though we are already stacked in that area as well, but yeah.

Chelsea will not be selling Oscar or Eden Hazard this summer, according to manager Jose Mourinho.

Paris Saint-Germain have been linked with both attacking midfielders since the New Year and were thought to be willing to spend up to £70m to land their targets.

However, Mourinho has insisted that no star will be leaving his ranks.

He told the Daily Star: "One will go from the squad that we have now – but I have yet to decide who. But it won't be a senior player."

This means Romeu is leaving on loan?

Letting Lamps, Cole, Bertrand and Lukaku go looks pretty fuckin stupid considering we will once again have a pretty thin squad this season. Unnecessarily.

We still have to let one person go even after Romeu's loan, Im guessin that wont be Mikel and Torres so my bet is on Cech

They will all probably stay, my bet is on excluding Schwarzer from final list of HG players so he wont be eligible to play.

I doubt Cech will go tbh, looks like he's happy to be here for 1 year tutoring Tibo before leaving.

Torres was the one everyone at the club wanted to be rid of (for obvious reasons) but after seeing that that isn't possible i'm reckoning it'll most likely be Ramires. Mou seems to rate MVG highly and we all know he likes Mikel for the big games, and you have Fab and Matic already there so we don't need more than those 4.

I think it's obvious that the club will not register Mark in the PL.

He most certainly does not. Mikel played very few of the 'big' games and only featured because Matic was cup-tied or we had to rest players (Liverpool away).

I think there's still a move that could be made...possibly Cech or Torres out for a striker.

I thought he did but I guess we'll have to see. If Torres or Cech leave to accommodate another striker, if they're not HG themselves we'll still be in the same situation. I hope it's Mikel, Ramires or Torres that goes and not Cech. But we'll have to wait and see.

[Viper22 2,418]

As much as I like Schwarzer, unless Cech or Courtois are leaving wasn't his signing a bit superfluous? We should have a HG GK as our 3rd choice, like Beeney or Blackman.

so basically we did a hilario with mark!!!
