Hi ed, with a firm bid, is it a strong possibility that Hazard will sign for us? {Ed018's Note - only Hazard knows where's going, and im not even sure he knows yet}

Believable5 Unbelievable1

Apparently Chelsea, utd and city have agreed the fee with club and all agreed on personal terns with bolster in what they offer and it's just fr him to choose now, clubs cannot do anymore it's just waiting for him to decide {Ed002's Note - No.}

Ed we have bid 32,300,000 £ for l.moura.

Why is it 32.3 ?? Why such an obscure and precise number ?? Why not bid 32 or 32.5 million

Jm10 {Ed002's Note - Because someone has converted euro to £.}

Believable4 Unbelievable1

Ed does that equate to 40 million euro? And do u think we will go higher?
Thanks
Jase {Ed002's Note - I have no real interest in discussing money.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Where does it stand? Still on the table ... Or bin rejected? {Ed002's Note - It simply does not work that way.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Cheers ed, makes sense , I see 32.3 and immediately think it is pound Stirling,

Keep up the good work ed

Jm10

Agree0 Disagree0

Does that equate to £40 million ed? And are we improving it?
Thanks
J {Ed002's Note - We will see.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Hi, this is just a suggestion. In my opinion Lukaku would be the perfect replacement for drog. However, he needs to be given a chance and a top class striker is needed to guide him. (not Torres) I don't know if this has already been posted because in all honesty I'm too lazy to check. He just seems very similar to drogba in build, but he's also quick and I don't think he's really been given much of an opportunity, would love to see it happen as I think a loan would ruin him. {Ed018's Note - he's only 19 and still very raw. a loan to a club where he will recieve proper playing time will help him out}

22 May 2012 22:17:13
Do you think we'll make a firm offer for Hazard? {Ed018's Note - I'm pretty certain we have}

Hi Ed,
I read this website everyday, its great :)
just wanted to add WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS OF EUROPE. that finally sounds soooooo good. (i dont feel) sorry to all those spurs fans who worked so hard all year only to pull the short straw and miss out because Chelsea proved themselves to be the best team in europe.

On signings its a shame to see some of the players mentioned leaving but things and times change - people get old. Some fresh faces and new talent is always exciting for the fans - specially if they are good.
Hazard, i think, would be a good signing but i think he should stick to doing his talking on the pitch after all he is a footballer.
Ed, there is this guy that plays for spurs, i think we might have tried to sign him a while ago but we were unlucky. would we be looking to sign anyone from spurs during this transfer window?

Mr Why {Ed002's Note - Not that I can think of.}

Believable4 Unbelievable1

Dos santos hes moving in the summer quite good player

Agree0 Disagree0

22 May 2012 20:48:30
ed alot of rumours going around that torres will be leaving personally i dont think he'll go but if he were to go, what clubs would be interested in him ? {Ed002's Note - Clubs in Spain and Italy. Perhaps, Malaga, Roma, perhaps others.}

Believable2 Unbelievable4

22 May 2012 20:55:33
Will De Bruyne and Lukaku come on Pre-season tour with us, before they go on loan?

PR! {Ed018's Note - More than likely}

Believable7 Unbelievable2

22 May 2012 20:33:47
Just to throw yet another player into the mix- Lucas moura?? Anybody think he's good. I think he is immense, his skills are good but is he a team player. Seriously, this is gonna be one good transfer window...

We are champs bt we have not played well so we need to bring best manager like Ottomar Hitsfeld in order to play attacking and sexy football. CFC fan from Tz

Believable2 Unbelievable10

You can't play attacking sexy football, with the team we have, proved by AVB.

You need to change a lot of the squad then it might be available

Agree0 Disagree0

We just won the champions league now you want a bother experiment like AVB?No we are chelsea and we play solid,athletic football

Agree0 Disagree0

We have a great team & yes we can play attacking with right players but we dont need to! We need to get back to being the club who went 2 years undefeated at the Bridge!

Agree0 Disagree0

22 May 2012 20:01:10
Ed would i be right in thinking
Exits over summer will be
Drogba
Malouda
Kalou
From a few things youve mentioned i think torres
Possibly merieles,(i hope we hold onto him)
Bosingwa
Ferrera (move into coaching role)
Is there any one else u think may go?

Carefree {Ed002's Note - This is a reasonably likely list.}

Believable6 Unbelievable5

Now drogba goning i dont think that torres will go
jambo

Agree0 Disagree0

Only way i see torres going is as part of falcao deal and mabey we buy higuine/cavani too

Agree0 Disagree0

We should keep Malouda, Kalou and Bosingwa. We should also try to keep DrogBAzooka. In three words: keep them all.
They are pure quality and experienced players. We should just try to sign younger players so they can play good in future.

Agree0 Disagree0

Meireles is not good hes useles

Agree0 Disagree0

22 May 2012 19:35:20
Slightly confused with CFC being linked with both Moura and Hazard who are similar players. Surely we don need both?

Believable3 Unbelievable8

We do.

Agree0 Disagree0

22 May 2012 19:32:22
Would it be pure coincidence that both Drogba and Mourinho were in the news today? What are the prospects of Drogba teaming up with the Special One again?

Believable5 Unbelievable10

22 May 2012 19:30:22
Hi,ed is chelsea linked with any cam position player? {Ed002's Note - Chelsea are linked with players who are versatile and I have no interest in getting in to discussions about what a CAM is.}

Believable2 Unbelievable1

Centre attacking midfielder

Agree0 Disagree0

22 May 2012 19:16:55
ED02 with now the legend Drogba leaving is Falcao and Cavani the main 2 targets if they are not available who else may we turn to? {Ed002's Note - Jovetic, Higuain.}

Believable2 Unbelievable2

Really dont rate jovetic i dont feel has though he is a primier league footballer and just not the quality i associate with chelsea these days higuian would be good and id rather keep toress then falcao or cavanni has next season i think torres will get the supply he needs from midfiel and will be up there with the best again

Agree0 Disagree0

22 May 2012 19:04:13
Apparently instead of man utd signing, they are ready to pullout of the race for Eden hazard. If this is true, then his transfer is imminent..

Believable5 Unbelievable3

Isn't this what they want everyone to think?

Agree0 Disagree0

Why dont we all just wait and see what happens instead of speculating everyday until hazard decides?

Agree0 Disagree0

I agree its really annoying that hes taking so long to decide..

Agree0 Disagree0

He wants to conclude a deal by the 2nd june, when england play belgium. no doubt he will make an announcement at the end of the game saying hes considering england now because they beat belgium.

Agree0 Disagree0

22 May 2012 18:53:03
Hey Ed an opinion question for you, now that The Drog is moving on would you rather us sticking with Torres as our main striker and use or squad back ups or, as rumors links us, bring in strong forward player like Falcoa,Cavani for more competition.

Cheers,
J. {Ed002's Note - I would have no problem with Torres moving on.}

Believable1 Unbelievable1

Drogba seems to think Torres is the future of Stamford Bridge or am i missing something? I don't see him (Torres) leaving

Agree0 Disagree0

22 May 2012 18:13:22
Latest rumour is bbc sport have heard Manchester utd signed hazard for 32m on 5 yr deal! True ed?

Believable2 Unbelievable19

22 May 2012 17:46:12
I think it would be essential for chelsea to keep luiz and ivanovic, there are links with teams with these two but I think we need them for our premier league win next season. They are quality.

Believable11 Unbelievable0

22 May 2012 17:37:49
Its beginning to hot up now: links to Hazard, Hulk and Falcao. Its getting very exciting, whether we will get them all, we will have to wait. But any deals we do are gonna have to be soon as once the europe cup starts, their gonna be focusing on that and for their country. Not for who they are playing for next season. Its now or right at the very end. Get your skates on Chelsea...

Believable2 Unbelievable1

2players youve mentioned are south americans so the euros wont matter and hazard is belgian and they didnt qualify!!!! Theres no rush

Agree0 Disagree0

22 May 2012 17:33:54
Ed can you see it being another dissapointing summer transfer window with a reduced transfer budget? {Ed002's Note - I have no idea what you are talking about.}

Believable1 Unbelievable3

22 May 2012 17:02:09
reports say we are now interested in Kawaga ED is this true? {Ed002's Note - Twitter or Facebook? Not unless something has changed today.}

Believable2 Unbelievable1

22 May 2012 17:01:31
ED media keep reporting hazard has signed a deal with man utd is this true? {Ed002's Note - Sounds like a spoof to me. Or even Twitter.}

Believable3 Unbelievable1

Its from twitter ed!1 {Ed002's Note - It will be true then.}

Any truth in the 50mil bid for falcao ed?

Carefree {Ed002's Note - No bid has been made yet but there is interest as we know.}

Believable4 Unbelievable1

22 May 2012 14:28:09
Hey Ed, do chelsea have any interest at all in Kagawa, reports going around suggest that we do have an interest in him(value ur opinion about him more).
Any news concerning our rightback targets in Azpilicueta and Van der wiel?
Dastanj {Ed002's Note - No and no.}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

22 May 2012 14:20:41
Hi Ed, i was just wondering if you knew whether Chelsea are looking to bring in both Lucas and Hazard? Or is it a one or the other situation? It just seems to me with both of these predominately wingers/attacking midfielders, and with Mata, Marin and de bruyne also occupying this role, we could struggle keeping them all happy. And also with the offer for Lucas being turned down, do you know what kind of sum Sao Paulo are looking for? Cheers. {Ed002's Note - I cannot sensibly answer compound questions and the money is irrelevant. De Bruyne will like be on loan.}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

22 May 2012 10:43:23
Chelsea ins and outs,

Ins; Erickson, hulk, Fellanin, Luke de Jong and VDW.
Outs; Drogba, Malouda, Kalo, Essien, bosingwa, ferriea

Ed had a look at your player profile on Moura, do you think he will be successful in the PL, or is he still not ready?

Blue 73 {Ed002's Note - I have not seen the player profile, sorry.}

Believable1 Unbelievable8

To be brutaly honist i would not be happy with those signings come next season ive got a feeling we will sign 2 or 3 big! Named players but i could be wrong,

Agree0 Disagree0

22 May 2012 09:24:36
Ed - Is there any interest in going back for Modric? He's going to hand in a transfer request and didn't want to leave London. Thanks {Ed002's Note - I don't know that there has ever been interest in Modric.}

Believable1 Unbelievable1

Ur sopposed to answer our questions and you didnt know that chelsea were interested in modric. {Ed002's Note - I am not "supposed" to answer your questions - I do it if I want to.}

Agree0 Disagree0

22 May 2012 07:25:01
Morning ed, has anything changed regarding our targets for right back? Or is it still a case of either Caesar or VDW.

Agree0 Disagree0

He has been in contact with man utd I think nothing else {Ed002's Note -

Agree0 Disagree0

22 May 2012 02:07:25
Chels should sign 3 of the following:

RB- Kyle Walker / VDW
CAM- lucas moura / eden hazard
ST- Falcao/Hulk


Ed has any intrest been shown towards Kyle walker im aware we have looked at the other names i mentioned but if tottenham sell off bale and modric he might be worth a few mil hes an excellent player.

ChelskiBlueBoi {Ed002's Note - Not that I know of right now.}

Believable5 Unbelievable4

Mate wee need wingers aswell

Agree0 Disagree0

True but hulk or hazard can both play RW and marko marin on the LW on top of that we have kevin de bryne who will be out on loan this season but one for the future. we need a quality RB first and a second striker to play along side toress and a wold class playmaker hense the choices i picked

CHELSKIBLUEBOI

Agree0 Disagree0

Chelsea should go for omar salgado from whitecaps, he is one for the future

Agree0 Disagree0

Next season
GK - Cech / Turnbull
RB - VDW / Ivanovic
CB - Luiz / Hutchinson
CB - Cahill / Terry
LB - Cole / Bertrand
DMF - Mikel / Romeu
DMF - Lampard / Essien
RAM - Ramires / De Bruyne
LAM - Hazard / Sturridge
CAM - Mata / Moura
CF - Torres / Falcao

Obviously there is a lot of versitility and most can also play other positions.

Any other suggestions?

Agree0 Disagree0

22 May 2012 00:33:10
Hello Ed. It seems Chelsea are deadly serious to get Lucas Moura, they've put in two bids already....My question to you is: Do you see Sao Paulo selling Lucas in the summer if the right bid came in or we are in for another Neymar case(staying in Brazil for a little longer....)? Cheers. {Ed002's Note - Sorry I cannot help right now with this.}

Believable2 Unbelievable0

I dont think its the same situation judgin buy what i have been reading and hearing its slightly diffrent to the nymar case has lucas would be up for the move as where neymar wasnt sao palo just made sure lucas sighn a lengthy contract when he was first sighned for this exact reason chelsea had a 32 mil bid urned down and there president said even though chelsea lead the race for him it will take a huge offer in my opinion his way of saying 50 mil
