Rumoured Mattia Destro

[Sidzeret 2,257]

We might have to pay 10-15m for Destro plus Torres. Quite depressing fall from grace for a £50m man.

Just make this happen.

Anything, just please be true.

This. Just makes you realize the size of our cock up. We'll end up subsidising his wages for a few years too - no chance Torres is going to take a pay cut, and no chance of Roma paying him £175k.

Have absolutely no faith that this will happen, and not terribly excited about Destro but he'd be a better back-up option than Torres and cheaper....much cheaper.

The best thing would be getting rid of Torres who has a gypsy curse precluding us from winning the title with him around....which he caught from Stevie G, obviously.

I'll give Rome my house, my wife, my money and my seduction skills if they take Torres

Please! Please! Please!

Don't post such videos ... it is seriously depression!

I refuse to get exited just yet. But if this actually is true.It'sgoing to be an EXPLOSION!

The level of anticipation is too high, I haven't even seen Destro play and still want this to happen, that says it all I think

Mattia Destro's agent has confirmed that Chelsea are interested in his client. There'll be no swap deal involving Fernando Torres.

So we are interested but it doesn't involve Torres? If that's the case then this deal won't happen especially with our foreign player situation

Destro can sit in the reserves and never play a game for us for all I care. Imagine the scenes if Torres leaves. I think the celebrations would be bigger than when he scored that goal against Barca. There'd be an open top bus with all the players on it, just to show he ins't our player any more, millions would turn out for it.

If it's a loan I'll buy a Roma shirt with Torres on the back so their shirt sale figures go up for that slight chance they think he'll be a good investment for marketing purposes.

That could just mean that the deal to bring Destro to Chelsea doesn't involve Torres. Why would we have 4 strikers for 1 position? Nothing to say they won't take Torres on loan as part of another deal.

If the deal doesn't include Torres going the other way.... Meh.

I'd rather someone like Remy to be honest

[sherry33 234]

I think Destro really might be coming they reported on Sky Sports also.

[bababoom 4,478]

Watching a few Youtube videos of him and he looks like a predator in the box, anyone what his overall game is like?

Exactly.

Swap deals are very rare in football. Nothing to say two separate deals can be done.

That will be exactly what we need when we want to bring on a striker when we need a goal.

Costa for teamplay/buildups, Drogba for physical teams, destro for poaching goals like ba did for us against PSG

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

Terrible striker really, I hope they take Torres for like 5-10m and we go out to sign Remy/Bony for 15-20m.

Has he gotten on a diet yet?
