Chelsea Rumours Archive June 12 2011

""ESPN and Marca reports that Neymar will snub Chelsea for Real Madrid. Hell, even I'm from Madrid I hate Real Madrid. How many offensive players do they need?
If Neymar doesnt come, do we have another player in mind, Ed? {Ed002's Note - There will be other options. But for now, Neymar is a target.}""

Well, but if we dont get Neymar, have we been in contact with other players?
Marca says that Rossi, the italian striker of Villareal, has got a deal with Bar a, so I think that Bar a is out of the run for Neymar or Sanchez, cos they have too many offensive players right now. So who remains in Europe or around the world?

Forget Neymar, as I stated last week he won't come to us and will instead go to Madrid. Pastore is the layer we need let's hope we go all out for him.

all of the talk of erikson joining has died down are chelsea still intrested and when are signings going to start going through ?

12 Jun 2011 18:39:32
Hi ED, do we have any interest in Pato, Benzema or a goalkeeper? {Ed002's Note - Not right now; no; possibly.}

12 Jun 2011 18:30:32
Hi ed, Just wondering is Schweinstieger completely off our radar now? {Ed002's Note - It seems so.}

12 Jun 2011 15:51:19
ed sadly i dont think we will get neymar as they are wanting so much money (41million) do you think there would be anyone else if we dont get neymar {Ed002's Note - I am sure players will be bought.}

12 Jun 2011 15:11:58
ed our 9 million pound bid for kevin de bruyne not accepted yet but do we need him? {Ed002's Note - I don't know anything about this I am afraid.}

12 Jun 2011 14:59:28
Ed002 wagner ribiero has said he wants neymar to join real madrid do they have serious interest in him and will he influence any decision made? {Ed002's Note - I am not interested in what he may or may not have said. I have explained everything I know about Neymar.}

12 Jun 2011 14:54:15
ed it was taught that lukaku was going to join on Saturday now do you think he will join at all? {Ed002's Note - I don't know what made you think that he was joining on Saturday. He may join at some point though.}

12 Jun 2011 14:44:39
all of you get it through your heads we are not getting nasri he will stay at arsenal he just wants more money, also we wont be getting fabregas he will go to barcelona or stay at arsenal so please give it a rest. we will sign lukaku, de bruyne, sneijder, van der wiel and maybe neymar. we will only be selling anelka, bosingwa and possibly mikel (don't know why)

12 Jun 2011 14:27:54
Ok so my uncle is connected with one of the directors at Chelsea and he's understanding that Hiddink is a deal done, and 4 big name players are on there way out.

I'm waiting for names.

Peace

ED are we showing an interest in fabregas because Barcelona are putting all there transfer budget on Sanchez.Also did we hold talks regarding lukaku last night {Ed002's Note - I don't know of any firm interest in Fabregas. As for Lukaku, Van Holsbeeck has made it clear that Anderlecht are still expecting more than Cheslea are willing to play so there were no talks. I suspect his agent Henrotay will be knocking on doors again.}

12 Jun 2011 14:00:30
When Gus Hiddink take over Chelsae he will play his favorite 4-5-1 that's the reason why Chelsa is looking for Sneijder&Pastore. Currently CFC doesn'z have real AM. My opinion is that we should go for Sneijder&Nasri it would be cheaper and better solution with wages 180k Sneijder and 150k Nasri. Yossi will probably leave as well there is possibility that Ramires will leave as a part of a deal for Sneijder. We should consider C.Adam before is not to late as we already missed A.Young.

12 Jun 2011 13:20:12
So chelsea have bid 30 mil for Neymar but didn't they bid 31 last summer and it got rejected ED002 they won't sell for 30 wil they? How far do you think chelsea will be willing to go 40 mil? {Ed002's Note - It is rather more complex as there is more than one owner of the player's rights. There are also other matter to be resolved, as I have said previously.}

12 Jun 2011 12:46:04
Are we still interested/trying to buy Sneijder?

12 Jun 2011 12:22:06
ED,

CAM: Modric, Pastore, Neymar, Sneider, Pjanic ?

Striker: Lukau, Aguero, recent news Tevez ?

Wingers: Mata, De Bruyne, Willian ?

Defenders: VD Weil, Subotic, Godin ?

Who are the possibilities and seriously monitored ??
As the time passes, more teams draw their concerns as that happening with Neymar and now Pastore.
Lastly, we require a Right Defense for sure.
But do you think we require a C. Defense? We already have FOUR of them. NO-ONE has the profile of sitting on the BENCH for long.
as Kakuta and Sturrige will come, we need to be focussed and selective I suppose.

Your thoughts ED? {Ed001's Note - 4 central defenders? There is only really Luiz and Terry, Ivanovic has been consistently poor when played there and Alex is unhappy at being a back up. Personally I would play Alex ahead of Terry, I rate Alex as a better player.}how is alex in any way better than terry ed?

12 Jun 2011 12:11:06
Are chelsea interested in lewis mcgugan of nottingham forest ed? {Ed002's Note - Not that I am aware of.}

12 Jun 2011 11:33:08
Have we pulled out of the chase for Sanchez altogether. All press reports are now pointing towards Man City, Barca and Man U along with options in Italy. Of all the names linked ... he's the one I'd like to see at The Bridge! Can you offer any hope?

12 Jun 2011 10:50:06
If we are interested in a creative midfielder, which is being reported zillion times - how come Nasri is not an option. A proven passer and finisher at only 23 years old, with 3 seasons in PL. United are reportedly looking to offer 15 million for him. I say throw inextra 10 and he's as good as ours. His demands of 120K per week are sustainable. IMO he's as good or better than Modric, Pastore, Hamsik. Where Sneijder only superior option, but would cost at least 30 mil, and 180 K a week in wages. Also Nasri can not only play in middle of the park at 4-3-3, but also on the wings. He gets my vote any moment.

12 Jun 2011 09:46:58
Ed, are we interested in Gervinho, N'Zogbia or Nasri? {Ed002's Note - No.}

12 Jun 2011 00:43:46
Have u seen Neymar's new comments ED002.What is this boy on 1 month he wants to move the next he does'nt but somehow i feel it is just because he does not want to say he wants to leave before the copa libatordores final. {Ed002's Note - I have not seen the comments. I'll dig them out.}

Did you have aread what do you make of them?

{Ed002's Note - I wouldn't worry about it.}

11 Jun 2011 18:06:47
{Ed002's Note - No, perhaps some news on Lukaku early next week. Everyone is down in Monaco this weekend.}

Is that because of Drogba's wedding?

{Ed002's Note - And there are a number of meetings organised.}
