Hey Ed, do you think Chelsea will move for Christen Eriksen? {Ed001's Note - possibly, but Ajax are not looking to sell.}

Is he our no.1 attacking midfield target Ed? {Ed002's Note - No, why try and put words in to the Eds mouth. He was part of the discussions about Van der Wiel. Chelsea have had him on trial twice and thought he was too small. Liverpool, Arsenal and AC Milan have also shown an interest in Eriksen, but he unlikely to move this year.}

Being a bit touchy jeez if we ask a question you seem to snap and say we putting word into you're mouth when we are just asking you're opinion on a a matter.

{Ed002's Note - Fine, no problem to me to not do the Chelsea pages any more.}

Hey ed, are we planning to let borini go? I swear last year ancelotti was saying that he was the best young player that he'd ever worked with. {Ed002's Note - Borini turned down an offer months ago. He will leave and Chelsea will take the compensation.}

Right!
Neymar, not gunna happen he's gunna be a dad and will wanna be around family.
Van Der Weil, looks likely.
Lukaku, done deal he's on his way this summer.
Kaka, really??. . no
We still are looking for a central midfield and a right midfield
But, are undecided on who to bid for, obviously there is a list but it will all depend on who we buy, who we sell, which other clubs are interested and if clubs want to sell.

Ed, anything floating around stamford bridge in regards to a move for Tevez? I think we'd be stupid not to atleast try and aquire his services as it seems as though his relationship with Mancini is just about breaking point. Your thoughts please ed????

{Ed002's Note - Chelsea have no interest in him at all and the player wants out of the UK, not just Manchester.}

Hey ed, heard that Chelsea have told some players agents such as Mikel and Bosingwa to find them some new clubs. Any truth in this?

{Ed002's Note - Some players know they are probably leaving already.}

Hi Ed,
Who would you like to see at Chelsea next season as a Chelsea fan?
I would love Neymar, sanchez and kyle walker plus a decent playmaker.
Any ideas on playmakers we've looked at?
I seem to remember you saying English clubs were cautious about sanchez because of his size, is that correct?

Great site btw, I bet it gets pretty annoying answering all the questions about who we are going to sign a month before the deadline opens!

Cheers, Tom

{Ed002's Note - Actually I am not going to keep bothering with the Chelsea page Tom, 90% of the posts are dumb "what if a, b and c happen" and "what is the hance of all of the five players joining". The few posters there are want someone chatty who will guess at things for them. It is a pretty pointless activity and obviously I have work and little time. I hope that Neymar signs and a right back is needed - perhaps Van Der Wiel. Ganso or Pastore would have been nice but are unlikely.}

Hey Ed, do you think Chelsea will move for Eden Hazard for a Lampard replacement or the attacking midfield role? {Ed002's Note - No.}

16 May 2011 16:43:00
Ed, have you heard any reports that City are already in advanced talks with Valencia over Chelsea target Mata? {Ed002's Note - Valencia may be preparing for life after Mata by lining up Elia as a replacement. Although there is some interest from Liverpool and it would not be entirely out of the question that the club could move for the player, I suspect he may end up elsewhere with interest being shown by Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester United and I suspect Barcelona will become interested at some point. If Barcelona do show their hand I expect he could move there, if not Chelsea are heading the queue.}

Hi, Ed,
Leaving the speculation about who CFC might buy on one side, which of the youngsters do you expect to come forward to the first team group? Might Mancienne make it as defensive mid, Cork, Bruma, Van Arnholt across the back? Is Kakuta ready for the first team?
Like to hear your views,
Cheers. {Ed002's Note - I expect Cork will leave, and probably Mancienne. Bruma may stay as cover or go out on loan, Van Aanholt will certainly be one for the future but that puts Ryan Bertrand in a difficult position. The loan has not helped Kakuta out, but I expect he will stay. McEachran may well get a chance out on loan. The others I have not thought about or heard anything about.}

It'd sure be nice to see Chelsea hopefully wrap up the neymar deal in the next couple weeks. The sooner they sign their targets the better I'll feel. I'd hate to see everything drawn out til the very end of the summer. Also just from rumours and some reports hopefully the Lukaku and Van der Weil deals are done early. To me it seems like we are at least to advanced stages with these 3 players. After that I'd expect it to take some time for their other targets such as Mata, Sanchez, and Aguero. Provided we are still interested. I just don't want to see Man. City sign 5 players before we sign anyone and we are forced to a backup, backup plan. {Ed002's Note - You do know the transfer window does not open until July 1?}

Think we need to look at other players instead of neymar.I don't doubt the lad is very good but it seems to me santos and Chelsea are happy with the fee but hes holding out for Barcelona/Madrid.I guarantee he would be home sick after one season

Ed, what is the situation with Ganso? Earlier it seemed as if Santos were resistant to his sale, however now they appear to be preparing for his departure. Milan and Inter were always said to be the front runners for him.

{Ed002's Note - The deal with Ganso is complicated and I would expect him to move to Milan - but there is a very significant dependency on him obtaining a European passport. Taiwo has joined Milan and awaits a French passport as well, and much of Milan's summer business will depend on the number of places available for non-Europeans. Chelsea remain interested in the player but will not be held to ransom if he becomes available.}

ED002 i am a big followe of brazilian football some reports are saying neymar to chelsea will be completed withing 2-3 weeks do u no of this?

RIODJ91

you told me to post this on here ed002 can u now tell me please.

RIODJ91 {Ed002's Note - I have no idea the source of your reports. The situation remains unchanged in that the decision is in the hands of the player and the club do not know the influence that becoming a father will have on any potential move. The player is being advised to remain in Brazil and Chelsea remain dedicated to trying to push teh transfer through. A representative traveled from Chicago to Brazil yesterday so it may become clearer later in the week.}
