hey ed good to see your back, this site really sucks without your witty responses. has there been any progress over talks between napoli and ourselves ?

trueblue012 {Ed002's Note - There are no talks right now.}

I heard porto accepted the bid for hulk from chelsea is this correct or not

Ed,

Do you think a move for Edinson Cavani is still possible for Chelsea even after the comments that Napoli's owner made?

Thanks {Ed002's Note - Of course it is possible.}

24 Jul 2012 19:19:13
Is Falcao still an option due to Atletico's huge debt? For me he is the best striker we have been linked with. 108 goals in 135 games since moving to Europe isn't a bad record!

So cavani wants to leave. Will we step up our interest? {Ed002's Note - "Step up"?}

I think what he means by that Ed is will we be looking at that statement made and now look at maybe putting a bid down.

Obviously it's just an agent doing what an agent does by trying to sell his client to get his own fee! Which if Cavani did move the agent fee would be massive {Ed002's Note - Chelsea have already made a bid.}

Would him handing in a transfer request affect the price of him? {Ed002's Note - The difference it would make would be to improve the chances of negotiation.}

24 Jul 2012 13:17:35
Cavani wants to leave immediately if he could but president is not keen, are we going to make official bid for him.? {Ed002's Note - A bid was made.}

Of how much? {Ed002's Note - We have no interest in discussing money - it is so vulgar.}

As fans I think we deserve the right to know. {Ed002's Note - Typically many football fans cannot grasp the costs of transfers with taxes and agent fees etc. which is why it is best to avoid such discussion.}

Great answer. Why worry about money all the time. Concentrate on thinking what the players will bring.

What you're saying is you don't know. Of course, you can't admit this because the hoards of muppets on here would lose their child-like adoration for you. {Ed002's Note - Sure, anything you want.}

Why should fans worry about the money it's as if it concerned them
I only worry about the type of player we sign cost means nothing to me that's Roman's concern
Drebs

"As fans I think we deserve the right to know" - you, my friend, are a complete muppet. Get behind the team, don't worry yourself about things that shouldn't concern you and give the Eds a break!

Steve

That's precisely what Im doing. Don't want Chelsea to go spending unnecessary money now do we...

Whilst i don't wish to annoy you ed, i was wondering whether or not the fees that are reported when signing a player e.g hazard £32m, whether they are accurate and if so they include taxes etc? thanks =] {Ed002's Note - They rarely include agent fees, taxes, signing on fees etc..}

Hi EDs, ur really doing a nice job, but u really need to nice to people, we're all here for the love of football and as fans, we get crazy sometime, most especially during transfer windows, players to buy or not to buy are just enquiries we make, d clubs make d decision at d end of d day, but dat doesn't stop us hoping for something good....
Guys we need to try and confirm some certain things sometimes buy ourselves, to take off d pressure away from the EDs

24 Jul 2012 12:30:28
Ed why we haven't sign Azpilicueta yet? what is the problem? {Ed002's Note - There is no problem.}

Have Marseilles given us permission to talk to the player?

Ed with Lukaku apparently going on loan to Fulham has there been any recent cause for optimism regarding a striker coming in? Secondly, are there any other serious options open to us other than Cavani? To me Hulk isn't a true centre forward and we may be putting all our eggs in the one basket. Thanks - love you!

Cheltic {Ed002's Note - Chelsea are actively looking for a striker.}

24 Jul 2012 15:56:58
Ed, javi martinez seems to be a versitile, strong and a tough tackler do you think chelsea could sign him despite man city and others being intrested. {Ed018's Note - No, there doesn't appear to be any interest in Martinez right now}

24 Jul 2012 16:56:50
been watching sky sports news and they were saying oscar is haveing talks with us today and the deal could be rapped up as soon as tomorrow lets hope so

even if we have to wait until after the olympics i think he wants to join

24 Jul 2012 08:20:22
Ed, is the interest chelsea have for lewandowski official? {Ed018's Note - Not that I know of. At least there was no bid I know of}

23 Jul 2012 23:35:17
Hey Ed are we having any interest in Higuain ?? {Ed018's Note - not right now}

23 Jul 2012 23:16:41

Carefree {Ed018's Note - Giovanni Luigi is Internacional's president}

Carefree {Ed018's Note - I wouldn't say that, the deal could very well be done this week. }
