Wishlist Daniele de Rossi

Italians are like wine, only getting better with age.

hmmmmmmm

Really hoping we get him, amazing player. Would also love Alonso as well.

Cole Luiz Ivanovic Azpilicueta

DDR Alonso

Hazard Oscar Mata

Lukaku/Ba/Torress/New Striker

That's a championship winning XI, IMO.

Plus when DDR and Alonso's careers are over, Chalobah, Ake, Josh, RLC, should be ready to step up

[Strike 7,217]

De Rossi earns around £105,000 a week at Roma, and we'd give him a marginal increase to £115,000 a week if those reports are true, which is perfectly fine for a player of his calibre. His wages aren't anywhere near as high as people seem to be making out on here.

Yeah. club laid off few (especially Malouda) who were on sizable wage. Shouldn't be a problem especially if transfer fee is less as reported

Pretty sure DDR and Alonso both won't come..Only one of them might come

You're probably right (hope you're wrong though) but we could potentially get both for around 20 mill. Two of the best beards in football playing side by side.

not to mention Mata

Of course. Hazard needs to let his grow out more and Oscar should hit puberty pretty soon. Lukaku is a beast, I'm sure he could easily grow one. Wow, the possibilites!

People shouldn't worry about his wages too much. We've just offloaded Malouda, who, if memory serves, was on something close to £90,000 a week. Many rumours suggested Benayoun was on at least £70,000 a week as well. That more than covers the £160ish million it will take to pay DDR's wages.

DDR or Alonso. I'm okay with any of them.

Just have a feeling he'll be a good signing if we can get him. What are the options for other CDM's in the market anyway ??

Actually i think this will happen, joining chelsea simply makes much more sense against joining psg, fingers crossed

Cavani disagrees

Cavani disagrees

Well the situations are completely different, aren't they? PSG met the release clause which Chelsea refused to. It's not like Cavani was given the choice of which club he joined.
