Surprisingly no has voted for Ramires (so far) given all the moanings in his thread.

Done.

Torres, Mikel and Romeu (on loan) for me. Promote Chalobah because he's HG and get in a new 2nd choice striker.

S*** we have to get rid another 2 players. If we have to sold or loaned Mikel and Romeu, we're suddenly quite thin in that pivot position. As it is impossible we're going with only 2 striker for upcoming season, it is almost fixed our 3 striker non HG (regardless Torres sold, I think his replacement will be non HG too). Unless we could find a HG striker quite good to be 2nd striker, quite cheap, ready for PL. Jeez, find that kind of player as hard as getting rid of Torres. Plus we had to get rid Torres first, so basically we have 2 mission impossible.

Not that I'm not rated Schwarzer or something, but if Jose have a plan for Cech to stay, I think Schwarzer is a "waste of space" there in my opinion (apologize for the words). Hey, we already have 2 top GK, backup each other, rather put Blackman there as a 3rd, to be wise. Then we could only just sold or loaned one of our CM. It is more realistic without weaken another position.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Romeu or Cech leave...(considering no one wants Mikel)

I would of thought a Serie A club would take a chance on Mikel, he seems like he would do well in a slower paced league

Regarding Mikel, His agent apparently said he won't move because he wants to get his British passport as he's completed 8 years in the country in October. Don't know how true that is though.

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?

[Magic Lamps 11,447]

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

[Vybz Kartel 1,613]

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.

[Viper22 2,418]

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.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

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!!!
