Ed002 on Liverpool page confirms we are still doing business: {Ed002's Note - There will certainly be some significant money changing hands for players in the coming days with Real Madrid, Chelsea and PSG all having significant and re-assuringly expensive targets in mind. }.

I suppose that expensive signing is either James or, hopefully, Koulibaly.

Agree0 Disagree1

Doesn't mean 1 big signing. Could be a few dealings.

The names Bond. Hamez Bond.

Have their been developments?

29 Aug 2016 23:49:42
Yes James Rodriguez will play Bond in upcoming 007 movies. Gawd, don't you watch TV at all?

I actually like de vrij but I think he lacks a bit of strength. I haven't really seen Alonso play, just a clip on YouTube. As for Brozovic, I really strugle to see what he could bring the chalobah doesn't, Chalobah gets about and can tackle and gives you that excellent passing range, speeds up the play. If Matic or Cesc leaves maybe it makes sense, bring some energy maybe. Its really if matic leaves I can see a midfield trio of Brozo and Chaloba with Kante in support. What y'all think.

I'd prefer to see a midfield three anyway of Chalobah, Kante who will do the defensive work and then either Cesc or Oscar the other side. Personally I think Chalobah at the minute is a better player than Matic it's just that Matic offers more physical strength at the moment.

Agree1 Disagree3

29 Aug 2016 20:52:21
Yea that's why I reckon it might be Matic that could go and possibly to United.

Agree0 Disagree3

29 Aug 2016 23:15:00
Why united? Jose ruined him.

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Aug 2016 23:46:09
I suspect he had a good relationship with Jose.

Never. Chelsea won't sell to another prem team.

Agree0 Disagree0

Hey Ed's, so we're supposedly in talks to sign Marcos Alonso from Fiorentina. But are Chelsea still looking or in talks to sign other players before Wednesdays transfer deadline? No player names needed, would just be interesting to know if we're in talks with anyone else. Thanks 😊.

{Ed018's Note - I would certainly think so}

29 Aug 2016 16:16:51
Do you see us going back in for Koulibaly Ed seen as Napoli are signing Maksimovic.

Agree1 Disagree1

{Ed018's Note - I'm not sure right now}

It's unbelievable how much trash have been written about Chelsea last few days (especially after 4 consecutive victories) . As Chelsea fan I am feeling offended. I have not seen anything similar about MU MCFC Arsenal. I have a feeling that Chelsea haters were surprised by the way Conte's team looks like and they couldn't even imagine that Chelsea might fight for silverware this season.

You have to put our wins in perspective Antibot. We have ground out three wins against poor opposition and beaten a likely relegation battler in Burnley, easily. Granted we have shown more spirit than last year but we have hardly looked like a team that will scare the big boys.

Agree2 Disagree0

My great great grandad on my mothers side was contacted by a median the other night and he reckons we're about to sign James off Real, Koulibaly and Alonso before the window closes. I'd be happy with that.

I wish.

Agree0 Disagree1

29 Aug 2016 13:30:31
I sense that to dubliner, not so much Koulibaly but I think there is a good chance those three will be Chelsea blue come the first of September.

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Aug 2016 13:36:29
You have a great great grandad?

I'd imagine everyone had one at some stage Jackson 😂 I know I can be Godly sometimes but there was no immaculate conception in my family.

No it's just that I didn't think you'd be living at the same time as him :-P.

At least deadline day will be exciting, wanted Ricardo Rodriguez but if conte wants alonso then I trust him, loaning Zouma would lose that trust thou doesn't make sense at all, James Rodriguez is luxury player who's not contes hard working sort of player so don't believe that, remy going on loan leave Costa and bats so another striker surely, Seeimg the team makes me think how brilliant nainggolan would of been in this team, a lot to be done before deadline day,

It's looking like this marco alonso deal will go through, to be honest I remember him in the premiership but didn't watch a lot of Bolton or Sunderland, can anybody enlighten me on what type of left back he is? , attacking? , defensive? , mix of both? , does he get forward a lot? , decent crosser of the ball? , how is he in possesion? , good passer? Bad passer? , is he just suited to a flat back 4 or could he play as an attacking wing back in a 352?

very good defender who imo only has one fault - can get caught too far forward. this might have changed since leaving sunderland. I always remember telling my brother and dad that he was a top player when I first saw him play for sunderland against either man u or arsenal. I have high hope but my expectation is squad player.

Is van ginkel injured at the mom ed002 or ed018.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed001's Note - he has a knee injury. Good way to keep up with injuries is physioroom.com.}

29 Aug 2016 05:23:18
Danke Monster Ed001.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - you are welcome, sorry it wasn't 002 or 018, but I didn't see the point in making you wait when I could answer it.}

29 Aug 2016 05:36:05
I meant monsieur not monster. Sorry for typo. New phone s7 edge, getting used to Android.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - hahaha I have been called worse don't worry. How do you get on with the Edge, I had one for a while to review for our Android site and I didn't get on with it at all. I have FFS (Fat Finger Syndrome) and couldn't use the edge as my fingers were too big to open the menus easily etc. I just found it made the phone useless, it meant watching videos was a terrible experience as a bit at the top and bottom sloped off the screen etc.}

29 Aug 2016 05:59:01
Since I spent some 1000 aussie dollars on it, I will say it is best in australia. Charges up quickly, screen becomes fantasticly bright when exposed to Queensland sun. It is big in size and gets even bigger with a case. So not recommended for people with small hands. Battery is good and holds up very well.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - I just found the edge unusable. I would have much preferred a standard screen but you get what you are given with reviews.}

29 Aug 2016 09:37:07
When is Ed002 returning back here? I have been following this website for over 5 years and I have noticed that he comes back after the close of every transfer window. Then he will provide insights about hits and misses. People want the twitter gossip to be authenticated by Ed002 and he gets upset by that. I hope he comes back soon.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed041's Note - not till the abuse stops. He gives up his time to inform you of deals and interest and all she gets is abuse.

I'm sure they will be back soon

29 Aug 2016 10:10:08
I have it . love the phone. Holds charge well.

Agree0 Disagree0

29 Aug 2016 10:47:51
Ed041 He and She! In same sentence for Ed002,

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed041's Note - yes

29 Aug 2016 11:09:03
The eds all seem to get abuse. But being truthful it's always the new posters who come here for transfer time, ruins it for all the rest.
It's nice to see some other ends post on here though :)

Sorry people I have missed what happened this summer. Who offended ed002?

{Ed001's Note - there were a few, one in particular who was just a knob.}
