Will Torres be available for selection this weekend against Newcastle?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed002's Note - On Tuesday they reported he would be available.}

On the chelsea website today mourinho said he's back in training but he won't play against newcastle, but maybe he'll play against the baggies on tuesday

Is Cavani unhappy at PSG?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed002's Note - It would be fair to say he would rather play centrally but Zlatan Ibrahimovic is there right now.}

So far away but the thought of cavani in same team as hazard Oscar Willian matic ramires is mouthwatering, can I ask Amy of eds or other readers who they think is better player and suited to premier league and CFC, cavani or costa

Agree0 Disagree0

Personally I would choose.Cavani, because he is a proven goalscorer for top teams in some of the world's.best leagues, Costa I think is a oneseason wonder

Agree0 Disagree0

I would actually go with Costa just think his build and style is more suited then Cavani, Costa tends to run at defenses Cavani is a bit of a poacher in my opinion but both are Very good and head and shoulders above what we have at the moment, would love our 4 forwards in the next 2-3 years to be Costa, Lukaku, Markovic, Bamford or feruz.

Agree0 Disagree0

On another page ed002 you mentioned that the issue may have resolved itself by the summer regarding cavani. Are you still of that opinion?If so, Does that mean that Zlatan will move on or a change of formation?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - It means that the situation may not be the same come September.}

One thing I will say is cavani works his balls off when he's up top which is something mourinho wants from his strikers. I honestly haven't seen enough of costa to judge him but like others I'm afraid of the small sample size.

Agree0 Disagree0

Cavani every time, he has been consistent over several seasons whereas Costa has only really come to prominence this season. But I would take either right now.

Agree0 Disagree0

Costa was excellent last season he was just overshadowed by Falcao. Both excellent players Availability wise Costa looks more likely and I think the guy is a beast. Wound up the Real Madrid players something awful the other night it did not go to plan for Athletico but on another day Arbeloa & Pepe would have been sent off. He needs to drop the diving from his game though.

Hi Ed

Looking into the future I was thinking about homegrown/club trained player.

With Lamps, JT and Ash soon to be leaving our homegrown contingent will take a hit.

Could you confirm if the players listed bleow will be Homegrown, club trained or neither?

Lukaku
Piazon
Bertrand Traore
Thorgan Hazard
Omeruo
Luke shaw (If signed in summer)
PVA

I think all were signed when they were 18 but not sure if that qualifies them?

Thanks for your help, great work as always.

{Ed002's Note - HG, neither, too early to tell, neither, neither, HG.}

Thanks Ed much appreciated, if we don't promote from within we will probably be looking to sigh HG players in the future. I guess that's also what made Rooney more appealing.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - The limit on non-HG players is what is relevant to the club.}

Hi ed002. Just wondering whether you knew anything about the contract situations regarding JT, Lamps and Cole? Will they be offered new deals or is it time for them to move on?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed002's Note - Terry will probably be offered a year contract. Lampard, I don't know about. Cole may not be offered anything. We will see perhaps next month.}

Ok cheers ed002!
