I also find it a bit odd we're linked with Alvaro Perreira, cause of the quality we have at left back, but I have noticed for his old clubs he has played in midfield (although at porto he's been a left-back for the last 2 years) but if AVB fancies using him in midfield he's be a natural replacement for Zhirkov.

Also, who do you reckon the "unnamed player" is that's rumoured to be part of the deal (my guess is Bosingwa, freeing up room for us to sign a better right-back)

Hey Ed: I really want to know why we are not going for Nasri,when it eminent that he will leave the club...If ManCity can take the player under our nose why can't we??Because he can play on the wing...Do you know anything about this?? {Ed002's Note - There is no interest in the player - it is as simple as that.}

Believable1 Unbelievable0

Ed002 were we interrested in him in the past or was that just paper talk? I recall we were being linked with him like a year or two ago. {Ed002's Note - I don't know that there has ever been interest in Nasri.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Lol im sorry ed002, I posted that on the wrong post, it was ment to be on the suarez post just below. ;)

Agree0 Disagree0

ED,
can't we begin having interest now As he would be a perfect fulfillfent to our squad.
Playing as a left winger, a player with EPL experience, wonderful speed, skill..
Everything we require at the moment.. {Ed002's Note - I don't see it happening.}

Agree0 Disagree0

ED,
can we refer to AVB's press release as published on sites where he has mentioned Nasri and insists, he is not only focused at Modric, but a good attacking midfielder and a left winger?
He didn't mention a name though... {Ed002's Note - There is no Chelsea Press Release mentioning Nasri.}

Agree0 Disagree0

I think we should've signed Suarez, he looks lethal, do you agree ED?
BLUEBLOOD {Ed002's Note - It is obviously not possible to sign everyone. I am not sure he would have fitted in at Chelsea in any case.}

Looks like we have bid for Mata 17M but it was rejected as Valencia did not appreciate that Chelsea talked with Mata's dad ( who's also his agent ) directly but we are likely to increase the bid if you could find out if this is true ed02 it would be appreciated {Ed002's Note - I will try and find out, but it is hard as I am travelling right now.}

Ed,
Do we fans have to wait till midnight, 30th August to see the new signings (if any)?

We can wait till that to see new players but please please can't wait that long to see our dull players like Anelka, Kalou, Maloda, Mikel all staying with the blues.

Isn't there any way to convey this message to AVB? {Ed002's Note - AVB is, fortunately, not so easily influenced.}

Believable4 Unbelievable2

We may well have to wait until the last few days/hours and you clearly dont have a clue about football if you think the players listed are dull.
Didnt they win a double and break PL goalscoring or doesnt that count ?

Agree0 Disagree0

So you r only counting something they did a season back..
but not what they did the last season, that we lost under our nose..
I am sorry I didn't have a clue and congratulations to you for being such a great fan who still thinks, a group players who are not even that comfortable playing according to our manager's plan..
He says we have problems in the midfield and we great fans say he doesn't have a clue..
Great go Blues..

ED018 OR ED002 2 Italian newspaper's and 1 spanish newspaper are confirming that Chelsea have contacted Juan Mata's father and his agent in the last 2-3 days do you have any knowlegde of this

BLUEBLOOD {Ed002's Note - I am not aware if they have, and they would need to contact Valencia not his agent.}

Believable0 Unbelievable1

Seems they have but are reluctant to pay the 30 mil euros do you think he may be a player we make a push for ED? {Ed002's Note - I am not convinced at this time.}

Agree0 Disagree0

YOUR NEVER CONVINCED ED

Hi Ed's Spanish newspaper AS have claimed we were in contact with Juan Mata's agent last week. Chelsea have been told that although Valencia are reluctant to sell a bid of around 30 million Euros would be enough to get him. Good creative player who can play on both wings and maybe even in the middle of midfield. Probably just paper talk but im hoping its a possibility.

Juan Mata would be a perfect addition to this squad.
But we Chelsea fans are not that lucky to see such signings this season at least..
sad :(

Hi Ed, i know you posted earlier that you don't know about any Modric offer. But wouldn't it be to our advantage with Spurs not playing now for almost 10 days to strike now. He has already stated after the friendly in Ireland that he still wants to come. And did you mention earlier that Lukaku is training with the first team?? Why would he if the deal isn't done. {Ed018's Note - the deal is about done, he trained two days in a row.}

Believable2 Unbelievable0

The deal for Modric is nearly done you say ed?? {Ed001's Note - Lukaku he said.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed is there any intrest in Adam Johnson? He's just what were looking for on the wing, young english player with great potential? Also could you tell us who were looking at in attacking midfielders and right back position?? Thanks a lot mate cheers {Ed002's Note - Not that I am aware of right now.}

Ed is kevin de bruyne an almost definite to come in? If not this summer but in january?
thanks {Ed002's Note - It is impossible to say what will happen in January if he does not arrive this summer.}

heard de bruynes leg is not broken his muscle or ligament is ripped but could be back in 10 days ed do you see us completing this deal this summer? {Ed002's Note - It will depend on whether or not he is fit to take a medical by the end of the month.}

ED02 is it true that Lampard Malouda and Drogba are unhappy with Torres and there is a problem between the players mentioned above? {Ed002's Note - There are no problems between the players. There has been an issue with the attitude of one player which I understand should have been resolved now in any case. It is not one of those you have mentioned and has been dealt with internally so is not for discussion.}

Believable2 Unbelievable0

It was Anelka.

Agree0 Disagree0

I heard it was anelka

Agree0 Disagree0

Malouda was as whinging when he wasn't picked when his form fell off

Agree0 Disagree0

12 Aug 2011 16:55:40
ED02 have Chelsea offered £15 mil plus 1 player for Alvaro Pereira and are in the early stages of discussing a move for him? {Ed002's Note - I don't know of any details at present. I am not in the country right now but wil see what I can find out.}

does AVB really know what hes doing??? he said in his first press conference how he likes to attack and excite?? well where are these exciting players?? were still stuck with malouda, kalou, anelka...there is no pace or flair in our side and unless we offload to bring in were guna struggle i think.....real shame Sturridge is banned for 3 games coz hes in good form....as for Torres?? mmmmmm we shall see

Believable3 Unbelievable0

There nothin wrong with all of our strikers,the problem is they have no support or creativity

Agree0 Disagree0

AVB has made it clear we will be brining in midfielders, he has stated the squad is good enough for the Stoke game, not the rest of the season; with all due respect to Stoke, Anelka, Malouda and Kalou etc. should be able to see off Stoke.

Agree0 Disagree0

Eds. I can't figure out why Sneijder (as did Kun) has so high wages demands. Couldn't he settle for...say 150k a week Surely moving up career wise is more important than the extra bob. Is it principles or the agents idea or is it just pure greed? Don't know why you should know the reason but I'll ask anyway {Ed018's Note - Once their agent is able to get them those kinda wages its hard for them to go somewhere else and sign a contract for less, while still in their prime, would you want to do that. i don't think its greed, just thats what their used to making a week}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

The guy won the Champions League... Can't really move up from that. Sure he can win the premier league but why take a pay cut just to win that?

Agree0 Disagree0

Because hes on stupid dollar a week even if he took a paycut hed still b minted

I really hope Chelsea now make a move for Thiago Alacantara, he now has alot of competition for places at Barcelona especially now that Fabregas and Sanchez have both signed this season. AVB is a huge fan and likes players who are versatile which Thiago is he can play any attacking role LAM< CAM>RAM. I no hes just signed a contract extension but that was because Barcelona didnt want someone bidding 10m euros to activate his release clause. I really think there is a possibility to go for the player who in my opinion will be one of the best attacking midfielders in 2 years. Either he or Ganso should be our top priorities especially if the Luka Modric saga is unsuccessful. ED is there any official or interest in the player that you no of? & do u highly rate the player? Thanks {Ed018's Note - he's a young player with tons of potential. im sure he draws interest from many teams, i just don't see him leaving Barca}

bbc sport has reported Chelsea are to offer £15.7m for Alvaro Perriera and a Unamed Player. Why the hell are we going after a decent left back when we have the best left back in the world? Plus 2 very good back ups in Bertrand and Van Anholt? WE NEED ATTACKING WINGERS......... If we made this offer for Hazard £15.7m plus Kalou they would accept it. Really puzzling me. Ed what do you on of Chelsea's links with the player and the likely hood of a transfer? Thanks {Ed018's Note - im a bit puzzled if this actually happens}
