Apparently Marina is concerned about the cost of Barella. LOL. Behave Marina and just get the job done before the fanbase turn medievil on yo'ass' !!!

As I said mate Granny wont pay the asking price! She always does it. Penny pincher.

Lost us £65mill for Willian. Lost out on KK for £5 mill more.

THINKS shes saving us money but in reality she loses it for us.

Sits on a whole Ikea store full of dead wood. Doesn't have a Black Friday sale!!. They just sit depreciating in value and bleeding the bank.

I would honestly transfer her if it was anywhere near possible!

Chelsea want Barella or Paredes to replace Fabregas

Chelsea have reportedly identified two targets to replace the outgoing Cesc Fabregas, and Maurizio Sarri wants that replacement in the next week.

The two midfielders in question are Caligari’s Nicolo Barella and Zenit’s Leandro Paredes, according to Corriere dello Sport via Sport Witness.

However, with no bids sent or terms agreed, this would be an ambitious push. Apparently, Marina Granovskaia is unwilling to match the €40m-50m price tag on Barella, and could instead spend that on Paredes because of his greater experience.

Gianfranco Zola could apparently prove key to a deal given his time in charge at Cagliari in 2014/15, but president Tommaso Guilini would prefer to sell his midfielder in the summer unless someone does meet or exceed his price tag.

If they decide to go for Barella, this would give the Serie A club the chance to find a replacement before the end of the transfer window, but the journalist behind the article doesn’t believe Chelsea and Marina Granovskaia are prepared to match the price tag (€40-50m) set by Tommaso Giulini, Cagliari’s president.

The belief within Stamford Bridge is that Roman Abramovich’s right hand will only go as far as €35m for Barella, and would be far more prepared to splash €50m on Paredes instead due to the Argentine’s more ‘relevant CV’ (he’s four years older).

And Barella turns 22 on February 7,  he is only 2 and a half years younger than Paredes, not 4 like the article states. He isnt some 16, 17 year old kid. This is his 3rd year as a starter in top flight football. IF Paredes was actually 4 years older than Nicolo, and we signed him to a 5 year deal, he would 31 at the end, and of much less resale value, in fact the exact same age and contract situ we just went through with Cesc. Critical thinking needed here.

Well its a difficult thing to even start thinking BUT MAYBE 'the board' might be softening towards buying young gifted talent.

Paying up so much for Pully shows they are at least willing to buy ones they want.

Fabregas has agreed a 3.5 year deal with Monaco, he's now back in London as we need to find a replacement.

If we sign both that probably 99% guarantees 2 things

Kovacic will not go perm..... Barella

No Sandro Tonali...... Paredes

I think the 'close to agreeing a deal with both' will be us covering all bases, we won't get both but 1.

At least we are finally going after players I truly rate. Barella for sure, and Paredes is a true DH DMF. Barella is a more forward driving MF, but the nice thing is he has a real hard streak in him on defence.

Its why I rate Tonali so high. He is like Jorginho or a poor man's (atm, give him time) Pirlo, crossed with Gatusso.

I don't think so, I think it's more of a case we don't let either slip through the net, agree a deal with both and sign one, it can happen.

Where did the board find intelligence all of a sudden?

Nothing to say we aren't looking.

Offer of #Chelsea for Nicolò #Barella objectively difficult to reject (apparently exceeding 50m £!). For this reason, Cagliari accelerated to Nandez del Boca (it is about payment mode), while Birsa will replace the injured Castro. Stretcher towards London
