im not worried by chelsea not signing pogba and stones or greizman if they don't want to play for us then good don't come for money
not worried bt transfers this window either it sounds weird but we have bought 2 players at 60 mill if you said we spent 60 mill 2 3 years ago you would of been well happy
i think we have probably the best young keeper in the world in courtois
everyone is going on about we need a centre back to replace terry cahill ivanovic
i agree but we have christensen to come back and zouma
the best young centre backs in the world are varane zouma and stones and we have one
pogba signed for united in the end and not us because we didn't want to spend 90 mill on a midfielder i agree when we have spent 30 mill on kante yes we were very lucky he came through last year for us to steal but i still feel we have better deal verrati pogba kante and matuidi are best in europe at the minute and we have 1
the only winger forward as good as ronaldo on left in europe at this time is hazard yes he was crap last year but i think jose was a destructive influence on everyone last year
as soon as jose left and hazard was fit look what happenend against spurs and scousers plus in euros he was best player
costa 1 of best strikers in europe on his day but i think is better in a 2 and this year could be his best higuian icardi lukaku and moreno benteke lacazette batshuiya are the strikers available this window we picked the best young upcoming talent rather than a double more expensive and had there day yes we are going for 1 more out of this bunch but i'm glad we got youngest one first and i think will be great acusition
fullbacks other than real madrids marcelo and guys i think we have the best one in dave
hes reliable loves playinf for chelsea and our best player consistently over 3 years
so i believe we have a great young spine of a team and a great new manager
lets be more positive and have faith in the good ol blue flag flying high

i haven't even mentioned the yougens coming thru so i believe the futers bright
thanks.

Bare off man, people like you are the reason why I stay away from the site during the transfer window. How can anyone be so inconsiderate.
What are you going to ask for an update every hour? Why would you keep asking the same thing over and over again, it's neither normal nor logical.

Ed018, you're a top man for even replying if I were in your shoes I wouldn't bother.

I don t know what the others spoiling to other fans, if the ed's don't wanna answer on questions thanks to rude fans, they simply don't! So, why you bother to pull out your brain out who will sign, and in who are Chelsea interested in?! Ed' s just provide info in wich player Chelsea are interested, btw they are not Emanolo to provide you Exactly info about weather transfer is in final stages, etc. So, my point is no one knows for sure about the chelsea targets better than Chelsea stuff! The time will tell us who Chelsea will sign! So i don' t care are we interested in some targets, it's much more important who we sign in the end of transfer window! don't moan about ed's lack of info, they provide the possibilities of transfers targets, but in the end Chelsea people have the final word! Sorry if i misspelled something, or offended someone, english is not my native language! Cheers to all true Chelsea fans from Serbia!

This could be the wrong site for you, I love talking about who we are linked with and who we need, waking up checking the site to see if anything has happened, asking people who know there stuff, the site is called Chelsea rumours. co. uk so we talk about rumours amongst ourselfs and the edds, as long as it's all done in good heart, I don't see the problem in asking a editor if they know something,

Agree2 Disagree0

09 Aug 2016 20:03:43
Cat, speaking about who we are linked to isn't the problem. Constantly bombarding the eds with questions is the problem and then moaning when they're not forthcoming with information.

Agree4 Disagree0

09 Aug 2016 20:18:53
I think the eds get frustrated with repeated questions, when most of the time their answer is a few days back. The abuse the eds take is unacceptable though.

Agree1 Disagree1

09 Aug 2016 17:58:57
It's very quiet on teams wanting any of our squad I've only heard of interest in magic and Oscar and Madrid seem to have lost interest in Costa can anybody she'd any light.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

09 Aug 2016 18:08:42
Everton want Begovic, Turkish clubs want Remy and Marin, Matic to Juventus, Oscar to Inter, Cuadrado to AC Milan, Miazga and Kenedy loaned out.

Agree0 Disagree3

09 Aug 2016 19:27:18
It's quiet probably because they watched them play last season.

Agree1 Disagree1

09 Aug 2016 14:57:38
If you all have read some of my posts recently you'll know that I have a bit on a man crush on Icardi. Rumors that we've given up on Lukaku and will push to sign Icardi. This would make us that much more dangerous with Costa, Icardi and Bats. If this were to happen I think a CB would put us most certainly in contention for top 3, maybe even make a run for the title against the Manchester clubs. Would also prefer to see Manolas as our CB choice, looks like we are being held ransom by Napoli. Thoughts?

Believable1 Unbelievable2

09 Aug 2016 16:41:23
I think it's a bit wrong to say we are being held to ransom, Napoli don't need the money they just got £75 million they don't need to sell, they finished 2 nd in the league, and probably want to keep there best players, it is us who need a defender and want him, Napoli are thinking we don't want to sell him, make us a stupid offer we can't refuse and he's yours, so it will depend how much we want him and how much were willing to spend on him, I can't knock them for wanting to hold on to there players, think of it if Madrid bid for hazard, as a club we wouldn't want to sell but in the end if we did sell we would want the absolute most money we could get for him, that's the name of the game guys.

Agree0 Disagree2

09 Aug 2016 17:04:59
I completely understand the reluctance to sell but what upsets me is the owner playing games with the situation.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2016 17:41:34
What has the owner actually said? , what games is he playing? , I haven't seen anything he's said about the situation?, other than he won't sell him and he will see out his contract, what else has been said?

Agree0 Disagree2

09 Aug 2016 21:58:03
He gave Chelsea a price to meet and they met it and he asked for me. If that's not games then I don't know what is. Cat are you just on here on a wind up?

Agree1 Disagree0

10 Aug 2016 06:08:34
Why would I be on here on a wind up,? That's stupid, I just think if someone tried signing one of our better players we would all moan, and want the club to reject it the same as Napoli have, I honestly have never seen any reports that he gave us a price then turned it down, hence me asking the question what's he done, what's he said? , you shouldn't be so touchy if someone don't agree with you, if you type your thoughts on here, for lots of people to read some will agree some will disagree, the key is don't think your a top football expert if you get a few agrees, and don't get upset or take it personal if someone thinks your point is stupid, it should just be a bit of harmless fun.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2016 14:07:33
Ed I have heard that we don't want to pay the price for Lukaku and have opened talks with another striker can u name that striker please because I have a feeling it is iCardi.

Believable2 Unbelievable0

{Ed018's Note - it very well could be Icardi, possibly Barbosa}

09 Aug 2016 14:31:38
Manolas or koulibaly.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

09 Aug 2016 14:52:36
Koulibaly for me looks a real athlete, well suited to the premiership, although you could have said the same about mangala before he joined city.

Agree0 Disagree1

09 Aug 2016 16:56:33
Koulibaly for me, if we lose Matic or he's going to be a sub Koulibaly's a few inches bigger than Manolas so we'll need that extra height.

Agree0 Disagree1

09 Aug 2016 11:44:50
Just thinking mahrez was at Wembley on Sunday so had every reason to be in London on Monday, my head says it's just newspapers making up stories, I hope I'm wrong though.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

09 Aug 2016 12:09:09
Every reason to be in London but not the Stamford bridge hotel! Personally, I can't see it happening but if it did I'd be over the moon as we all would.

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Aug 2016 12:14:32
Question is why is he still in London. and where's the rest of his team mates?

Agree2 Disagree0

09 Aug 2016 12:27:11
Doesn't make sense to me though, conte was having an agreed meeting with an Italian journalist, at a Chelsea hotel, so I just don't understand why he would have a secret meeting about a transfer when the press is all over the building, so far I've seen it reported in 1 news paper, I think if it was true it would be all over the place breaking rumour MAHREZ meets conte with agent!, I'm going to say I don't believe they met.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - Where do you get this nonsense from - Twitter I am sure.}

09 Aug 2016 12:47:36
If your asking me edd, I seen it on Chelsea fc Rumour mill, I don't know how many of you use it, but it gathers all the info about Chelsea from all the papers, sky sports news, Internet ect ect . , it updates itself at 06:00, 10:00, 14:00, 18:00, 23:00, it has all the rumours from everywhere on 1 page, I don't have a Twitter account but if I did I would have a gander, as I have answered your question ed 002, could you answer mine, are we interested in signing mahrez?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - I have no interest in answering questions about players - but you should not believe everything you read on the internet about unemployed students from London who hang around looking for photo opportunities.}

09 Aug 2016 12:48:21
Funny you should say that Ed! Please come back and seperate nonsense from more realistic nonsense!

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - No chance.}

09 Aug 2016 14:49:31
We miss you Ed ) : will you be back once the transfer window is closed? Always good to see yours and all the eds opinions.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - I am not planning on providing any more information to this page at all. It really isn't worth the bother.}

09 Aug 2016 16:32:51
Shame to hear that Ed, but I understand. Having worked in a similar thing, I know how much nonsense/ trolling/ abuse can come through.

Silly season is in full swing at the moment! Koulibaly bid rejected by all reports, even after by all accounts we've met their valuation. What can you expect when dealing with ADL, I think he enjoys putting us through pain and they've lost Higuain. Still confident it will go through, it's more a matter of whether Napoli get Makisimovic. We are still linked with Lukaku, I'm with others on this if I had to chose I would go for Mahrez over him then move on Cuadrado and Pedro. I will believe it when I see it though. Also have seen we are still monitoring Icardi and Gabigol who I think would both be better fits than Lukaku. Then there is are Thiago Maia rumours which a bit out of left field, interested to see what happens there. In an ideal world I would like to see one of Koulibaly/ Manolas, Mahrez/ Gabigol (still think it will be Lukaku) and possibly another full back like Lichsteiner but it doesn't look like we are linked with any. Throw in Maia for depth and we would be looking pretty good for the season ahead. Who does everyone think will come in before the end of the transfer window? Can't wait for the West Ham game!

Blimey, United and City not Holding back with their signings are they? Wish we had the money to compete with the big boys.

Believable7 Unbelievable7

09 Aug 2016 16:33:38
Why people are disagreeing? It's true. If we had the money we would have spent the £50m on Stones. We would have paid the extra £10m that Juve wanted for Pogba.

Agree0 Disagree1

09 Aug 2016 17:08:42
We have helped create this situation by clubs such as City and PSG being bought in light of Roman's investment in the club. FFP was then being encouraged by the establishment clubs like United as a mechanism to preserve them as the elite and to stop owners such as Roman from investing.

We wanted both Pep and John Stones long before City did and Pogba when he left United but all have ended up there instead of here.

Agree0 Disagree1

09 Aug 2016 10:39:38
When you moan about our transfer dealings when Utd pay £90m for pogba and we got Kante for £30m and without Europe when other big teams were in for him! Think you can stop moaning now.

Believable9 Unbelievable6

09 Aug 2016 16:15:22
Paying for the potential mate to be honest. Stones is worth £50m just for being English (quota) and has untapped potential. Could quite easily be the next JT.

Pogba - only 23 mate. Again paying for potential. Jose was right about him joining United. If he had joined Barca/ Real, he would have hit a ceiling with Ronaldo and Messi being top dogs there. At United he is quite easily the best player they have and can in my eyes get better.

Eye watering fees for them both, but justifiable I think.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2016 16:26:03
Just PSG were in for him I believe and he wanted to stay in the prem?

Agree0 Disagree1

09 Aug 2016 10:21:38

Stating he was in the same hotel as conte.

{Ed018's Note - no although I did see the pictures so I guess maybe something is possible}

09 Aug 2016 10:29:47
I really hope so! Just a perfect winger for 442.

To be honest, the whole Leicester team were in London so think people are coming up with different stories lol.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2016 10:15:03
so that's Pogba to man united done.
stones to city is also 99.9999999% done.
looking at city and unied I see them both as way too top heavy however I think they will blow both us and arsenal away.

we are both (Chelsea and arsenal) going to buy big at the end of the window, my opinion changes every day but I think each team will get minimum two players.

arsenal - mustafi and benzema
Chelsea - lukaku and manolas

I have not heard much on benzema leaving but with morata in and (I think aubemenyang too) Madrid will let him go and arsene will break the bank.

also my surprise of the season will be everton and I think they are going to spend BIG soon.

weird post but bored at work. thoughts?

Just reading rumours that mahrez and his agent, was in the same hotel as conte recently, and a person claiming to be an agent told the reporter that Chelsea want him and a bid will follow, I've seen the photos he's defiantly in London, I just don't think I believe it, to me it's the papers making a link, although mahrez would give us options, we could go with 2 wingers mahrez and hazard or 3 behind the striker with Willian, or Willian and mahrez on wings and hazard playing as a striker of Costa, I've been a bit doom and gloom with our lack of transfers so far, but if we get mahrez and a top centre back, I'll say we would win the league, that's why I've been moaning I believe 2 class players brought in to have a similar impact as when cesc and Costa came, would love this to happen but I just don't see it sadly, fingers crossed though.

Believable0 Unbelievable3

09 Aug 2016 10:29:19
I did see that pictures too, I wasn't sure how to take it? coincidence? fake/ photoshopped? would be an interesting signing for sure and give us a world class front 3 for the first time in a lot of years. time will tell, I can't wait until the window is shut. but then I won't be able to wait until January again hahaha.

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Aug 2016 10:36:48
Tbh I am very shocked that Mahrez hasn't moved already after last year.

Agree2 Disagree1

09 Aug 2016 09:11:31
I personally think we have bought well so far but what worries me is we are doing wht we done last year. Didn't buy correct and rushed bought at the end.
We need to get our act in gear because the season starts next week. I personal belive the transfer market should be shut before the season starts and opens before it does. All players should be given pre season.

Believable4 Unbelievable1

09 Aug 2016 08:12:24
Is it possible to recall Christiansen from his loan and pay a fee to do so Ed? Just a thought seen as we kick off in less than a week and our defence is the worst I've seen it in 10 years!

It has looked a shambles In pre season. Apart from Azpilicueta and Aina, the rest have looked poor. We can't start the season like that, and with no cover at full back. Surely deals are close? Otherwise it's another mid table finish : (
