There is no one stopping us from sealing the deals now !!! I can't wait anymore !! Btb The Guardian has it that we have signed Zhirkov for 18m ... Yet to see it in BBC though the Guardian's quite reliable !!

Reports on TalkSport's radio station Zhirkov's signing will be confirmed tomorrow, and I've heard similar reports on various sites that Turnbull and Sturridge are to agree terms with the club very soon as well.

Russia star Yuri Zhirkov has dismissed speculation that he will sign for Chelsea this summer. The CSKA Moscow man had been linked with a switch to Stamford Bridge but the 25-year-old insists he is yet to receive an offer from the Blues."I honestly know as much about it as everyone else," he told Sport Express.

"I read the papers, listen to the radio and I am genuinely surprised, given that no actual offer from Chelsea exists."

New Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti is expected to transform the squad over the summer with Zhirkov one of the names believed to be on the Italian's shortlist.

And Zhirkov says he would welcome the chance to play in the Premier League should the opportunity arise.

"Clearly we are talking about one of the best clubs in the world, who regularly compete at the highest level," he added.

"It is very possible that I would say yes.

"But before that I would have to weigh up the pros and cons.

"To sit on the bench and only get on the pitch from time to time doesn't interest me, not even at Chelsea.

"Moreover, I have nothing to lose (by staying in Moscow), given that CSKA now have a very interesting team who will begin competing in the Champions League in the autumn."

I was reading from that report, and I thought "WHAT??"

but then I read what you wrote under the report and I was like "oooh okay", I honestly thought he was denying the rumors we were set to sign him!

[BlueLion. 21,491]

I hope you're right.

SkySports have been very quiet about the Zhirkov deal. I haven't heard of anything thus far.. beginning to gradually grow a little frustrated!!
