Sergio Aguero joins the other Manchester club

[RX8 40]

who understands chelsea!

first does not make sense, now we are biding for Aguero, a few months after he has signed a contract extention, or is that made because Madrid also offered?

The only logical point of view is that Aguero reduce 15 million on his release clausure....

In any case too late to make movements for Aguero, although I admit that I would love him in the team.

Now I do not think Anchelotti lie to the press, but I really think that is a white lier, a product of what everyone already knows, Anchelotti is not the type of coach who likes to have total control of the team as the case of Mou , Ferguson, Wenger and Benitez himself.

The truth is that negotiations of David Luiz appear to have the market attentive to our actions. The question is, we are moving in the market? This also means that there is money for signings that indicates that Abramovich gave the green light for that and gives Anchelotti the confidence to buy some new player.

The other question for me is... why will this guy from the atletic will lie about this??

Carlo lies to the press anyway.

Either that, or the Press lies, there's a difference!

I think this was just a move to get Benfica to budge. They are holding us ransom to a price tag, because they know we dont have another option. If Chelsea is involved in another transfer which would also include a striker at a reasonable price tag, Benfica will sell much quicker.

We did have alternatives. Cahill, Kjær, and even Lescott. All were denied though by either the club or their agents, but I suspect we would have gone for any one of those players if we weren't able to sign David Luiz.

i think its a genuine bid and it's a bid to win us the Champions League. Atletico weren't in the UCL so those players wont be cup tied. The premiership is over after man utd, being the fuckers they are yesterday and coming back from the dead to win. 10 points = too much.

I hope this is a genuine bid and even if it gets turned down, at least we know Roman is ready to spend big again, well it's about time.

How a team like Atletico can turn down €60 is beyond me tho, its hardly like they are getting anywhere with their current squad.

[Henrique 9,133]

Like others have said though, this is the first official bid...

This is not an official bid: "We never comment on transfer speculation, no matter how wild it is".

These news are based in the word of Atletico's president. Its really strange because we didnt hear anything about this in last week. None speculation in british or in spanish press, and now he says we made an offer last week...

Carlo said one month ago that he would love to have one defender, he never said he wanted a striker.

Mourinho was after one striker whos is strong and is a reference in the box, not the kind of player Aguero is. I dont believe Real Madrid made a 40 millions euros offer for him, and only a stupid guy would believe that Chelsea offered £ 52 millions for Aguero and Godin...its soooooooooooooo nonsense.

In other words, Atletico's president is a really bad liar. He is just trying to show that his club is poweful enough to say no to Real Madrid and Chelsea, even if they are offering these kind of money. He is just trying to make his club a giant that can match his Madrid´s rival. Mad guy.

I don't think anyone has considered this...

Carlo has said Luiz will be the only player to come in this January.

Doesn't mean we can't sign pre-contract agreements for players to join in June.

You dont honestly believe that, right?

Atletico general director Miguel Angel Gil Marin said: "Yesterday I received an offer of £38m from Real Madrid for Aguero and I said 'no'."This very week Chelsea were giving me £52m for him and Godin and I told them exactly the same thing.

"I won't negotiate the sale of Aguero with Real Madrid or any other club - not now and not in the summer, either."

Im getting so tired of this transfer saga that im beginning to hope we dont sign him. He cannot be worth all this bullshit, he can stay at that garbage club and keep winning dust. All Aguero would have to do is tell the club that he wants to leave and BAM! We could sign him up. He obviously doesnt want to come to the Bridge, so stay in spain, you probably couldnt handle it over here anyways. Fuck you Aguero and fuck you Marin.

If the bid was €60m then because of taxes Atletico would get something like €45-48m.

How can you be disrespectful to Atletico Madrid like that. They are nice club with great achievements and great fans.

[We Hate Scouse 10,286]

Great fans? Wouldn't go that far. There fans are horrid. Spitting on Chelsea fans when we went out there, singing Liverpool songs and one of them bottled a female Chelsea fan. Pure scum!

[eldo 868]

I meant loyal to their club and that.

Many fans of other clubs hate us for no reason.

[Cosmin 2,484]

Spanish fans are shit. Not all of them, but a big part. No ofense, but they are so boring at the games. You can't hear a song from them.

About Augero, I think we should find another solution.

[termninja 5,290]

50 pages of this thread...and nothing...

I think Aguero wouldn't fit best in here honestly. I'm not sure how well he can play on wings, and he's too weak to be the only striker. I'd rather that we buy a couple of more players instead of splashing money on Aguero...

Still, he's good ^^

[chrismada9 1,948]

Well, if Aguero were to come here (highly unlikely due to the fact that it isn't the summer) He would have replaced Drogba easily in my opinion. Also, he could have been our Zola-esque player, he's that sort of player who likes to dink in a ball, or even score himself. That's what I really like about him, and that's a type of player we've never had at this club since Zola.

Who's betting on this reaching 100 pages come June?

[eldo 868]

Spurs made 38m bid.

[neel 257]

and it is turned down
