It's got barca written all over it

Agree0 Disagree0

Where did you hear that

Agree0 Disagree0

If chelsea get Willian from Shacktar then it may pave way for Neymar to be convinced joining his fellow Brazillians already at the bridge... {Ed002's Note - Willian is moving elsewhere.}

ED is it true Inter won't let Coutinho leave unless they sign Paulinho? {Ed002's Note - I don't know what the provisions of the agreement are but obviously no contract will be signed before a medical is passed and a work permit obtained. They need a replacement for Sneijder and would like Paulinho ideally - but cost is an issue. Hence they are also looking to others.}

Ed002, Rafa says there's no more transfers coming in..I know you said there was every chance a player could come in before the end of the window, do you think it is still possible? Or has something changed?

PR! {Ed002's Note - See previous answer.}

Ed002 Benitez has just said no more signings ? He is fairly delusional currently so does this change your prediction of the other day when you said it was likely we would sign someone?
Thanks

Ed 002 Has something changed your optimism that we might well sign someone ?
Thanks

So Benitez has confirmed there will be no more incoming transfer's in this window I guess they targets we were after we not available ED002?

BLUEBLOOD {Ed002's Note - I have explained repeatedly that it is near impossible to predict the signing of players. Equally, I would not hang off every word Benitez says.}

Believable3 Unbelievable2

Yes but ED surely someone at the club told him that we would be bringing anyone in? {Ed002's Note - I have zero interest in discussing what he has said. The club has been making an effort with a number of players but it may come to nothing.}}

Agree0 Disagree0

Hey ed, knowing that we have a good relationship with Vitesse regards transfers and whatnot so I was wondering if we have any interest in bringing in Marco Van Ginkel ? thanks man {Ed002's Note - Not that I am aware.}

Is Bony Newcastle-bound? {Ed002's Note - Wilfried Bony has been of interest to Newcastle and has been a player Chelsea have been considering for a while. Recently there has also been varying degrees of interest from Marseille, Aston Villa, QPR, Liverpool, Everton and a couple of German sides (Hamburg and Schalke) but of these only Marseille seems to still have interest. It would not be a surprise to see interest from other teams, possibly Napoli and Roma. The player has said he would like to join Chelsea. Whilst an offer has been made by Newcastle efforts are still being made to get interest from Russia, any move in January is by no means certain and he will be away at the ACON until the middle of February.}

Believable1 Unbelievable1

**** sake ! just say yes or no {Ed002's Note - Saying nothing might be best for me then - Would you not be happy with Bony at Chelsea then?.}

Agree0 Disagree0

I've heard we're looking at Renato Augusto

Believable2 Unbelievable3

He just joined Corinthians this window, mate. Decent player but fairly injury-prone nevertheless.

Cheers

Add so more Brazilians why not

ED is it still likely a player will sign before thursday? {Ed002's Note - I'll say no just to stop the repeated questions.}

Ed, are the club aware of the shortage of centre midfielders at the club? As in are they looking at bringing a player in that area with a few days left in the transfer window.

Hi ed cheers for all the updates over the transfer window. Wondering if thete will be any last minute moves from us for willian or David villa. Thanks. {Ed002's Note - Chelsea would be interested at the right price in Willian - but right now attention is elsewhere and the price too high. Villa no.}

We really should start sending players out on 6 month loans instead of full season ones, then in jan we can look at where they're at and if the club needs them then either send them back on loan or keep them. This would've been useful with De Bruyne, Lukaku, and maybe even Van Aanholt, Kalas and Kakuta

There is also the option of agreeing a recall clause. Lukaku's deal had such an option but Chelsea chose to let him stay at WBA.

Agree0 Disagree0

Agree! we could do with de bruyne and lukaku now!

Agree0 Disagree0

What about Essien as well?

Agree0 Disagree0

Apparently all loans have recall options for january. It was hinted as much by Steve Clarke. Is this true ED? {Ed002's Note - Not all.}

Hey ed,

any interest in Aubameyang? I feel he would be a great pick up for his value.

cali {Ed002's Note - After a year at St Etienne Aubameyang has attracted the attention of Fiorentina, Manchester City, Manchester United, Zenit St Pete, Newcastle, Aston Villa, Spurs and PSG, probably amongst others. He has said in the past the one day his dream would be to return to play with a great Milan side. I didn't see him leaving the Geoffroy-Guichard in January but I understand that if a significant bid is made that St Et will give it due consideration. Such a bid is being pondered by Fiorentina but a summer move seems more likely.}
