Fabio Coentrao joins Real Madrid

Doubt it. Marcelo's been fantastic this season. Maybe United or Liverpool. Either way.. Not worth £26million, we don't need him.

So umm, was I right? "My dream is to play for Real Madrid" and similar stuff? :eyebrows:

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Marcelo is a brilliant player, probably the best left-back in Europe on form towards the end of last season. Coentrao will probably end up going elsewhere.

Chelsea in the race for Coentrão

With the future of Ashley Cole yet undefined, Andre Villas Boas is already preparing the future of Chelsea and the Portuguese market promises to be one of primary importance for the strengthening of Blue London.

Would be awesome for Chelsea

Benfica + Porto = Chelsea

[chrismada9 1,948]

would prefer to see Bertrand getting more chances next season if Ashley Cole does leave, but this deal sounds interesting!

Benfica must be sick of seeing some of their players being prized away by us... Ramires, Luiz...

I think Real is already arranged Coentrao

No thanks.

We have quality left-back in our ranks already.

Yeah agree, no point in just wasting money.

Leighton Baines, anyone?

I've never seen Baines do anything bad, and to be honest he plays better than Ashley a lot of the time, i like him. I would never turn him down.

And we probably could get him for cheap.

Yeah Baines is really good. He can give Ashley some lessons when it comes to crossing

Hi, im a benfica fan and i think coentrao is already in Real Madrid they are just waiting for the 1st july to make the transfer official. But i can tell you that if he goes to chelsea he is a great signing. Better than the ramires and david luiz ones. Ashley Cole is not what he used to be and i assure that Coentrao right now is 10x better than him and if ihe isnt right now the best left defender in the world he will be in 1 or 2 seasons just needs to go out of portugal so the world recognizes him.

[Domino- 116]

I think not Coentrao we need

[BlueLion. 21,491]

We already have the world's best left back, there's no need to go out and buy the second best.

Bertrand > Coentrao

[J.F. 1,484]

Ashley Cole > Bertrand + Coentrao.
