Hi ed

Cfc appear to have done early business re costa, which is excellent. Do you anticipate the plan is to do our deals early so as to not pay inflated prices if our targets have a good world cup

For god sake, why would Chelsea sign Callejon another winger for 32m€. Callejon was sold to Napoli last summer for 9m€.
Especially as we all know how hard is to negotiate with Napoli owner.
And what would player like Callejon bring to Chelsea that Chelsea doesn't already have.

Absolute waste, that money could go on a second striker or Vidal/pogba/Barkley

Just a rumour without substance perhaps?

I think you have to see him as an alternative to Lavezzi. Don't look at him as a winger see him as more of a 2nd striker!

There is a need, every now and again to play two up front. The problem is, as we've seen this season, you need someone to play off a talisman if you put two up top.

Callejón, or Lavezzi, would be the perfect foil to the likes of Diego Costa and they can also play on the wing or in other attacking positions!

The perfect attacking move, a clear Mourinho move!

Agree0 Disagree0

Im sure we have that foil to our talisman in the likes of Schurrle

Agree0 Disagree0

Hulk, no doubt that name will be linked like every season, overrated but still quick powerful skilful loves a shot,

Agree0 Disagree0

Guys chill Ed said we had him watched he didn't say we were on the verge of signing him.

Glad to see JT getting a one year extension to his contract. He has had a great season alongside Cahill so fully deserved.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Yes defiantly nice to see Terry get a year extra with the club has been fantastic with Cahill this season I would love to see Varane be Terrys long term replacement but I doubt we will get that lucky anyway that's something to worry about next year I guess.

Ed002 could you please give an overview of what Mourinho wrote in his report to the board?

I'm sure the main points of it have been whispered to you by now!

Many thanks,

So this deal that's apparently been agreed. Doesn't mean anything really does it? We had a deal with Falcao too if I remember correctly and look where he ended up.

Anyway, I've heard that Lukaku is close to STAYING with us now. But does that mean that we will only be looking to sign 1 major and 1 back up strikers if ba, Torres and eto'o leave?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

If whatever issues with Lukaku are resolved, unless we decide to play two upfront, I don't see where Lukaku would fit in as he will not want to sit on the bench and would get little game time if a striker like Costa comes in.

Hi Ed. If this is just a bunch of BS then just delete the post, it's just that I don't know. ssn seem to say chelsea have agreed personal terms with Diego Costa and the deal will be announced somewhere in (early) June. Surely this isn't the case?
Again, sorry to bother you with it if it's a load of tosh.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Why would it be a load of tosh? It's ssn, they rarely get it wrong!
