Hey Ed hope your travels are going well, Read a report this morning that has a few quotes from Lukaku he seems to be of the opinion that he will be playing at Chelsea next year just wondering if that means something has changed or if the situation remains has it was, also just a reminder about the list no mad rush whenever time allows anyhow thanks as always enjoy the rest of your trip.
{Ed002's Note - Nothing has changed with Lukaku - the club will make a decision at the end of the season. A considerable effort is being made on behalf of Lukaku to try and save his Chelsea career.
Very quickly - out will go: Moses, Marin, Mikel, Romeu, Kakuta, Hutchinson, McEachran, Ba, Eto'o and Torres. Probably out Cole. Possibly out Lukaku, Schwarzer or Hilario. There is interest in Oscar and Ivanovic.
Players interesting Chelsea: Costa, Cavani, Lavezzi, Darlow, Moreno (as first choice over Shaw, Bernat, Sandro, Nagatomo and Kurzawa), Iturbe,
Youngsters: Fishna, Brandt, Rabiot and Bakkali.
There might be interest if the club cannot bring in the forwards they want: El Shaarawy, Griezmann
Interested but very unlikely to happen: Vidal, Barkley, Carvalho, Draxler, Reus.
Interest probably moved on: Imbula and Rakitic.
The is pretty much off the top of my head and is likely to change.}
Wow thanks mate appreciate that.
Thanks Ed!
I take it Bertrand will leave as well ed?
{Ed002's Note - Yes.}
Thanks ed!
Appreciate that ed
Thanks Ed002, once again showing your godlike talents ;)
Saw Brandt playing during the weekend against Dortmund (I assume it's Brandt as in Julian Brandt) and he looked pretty good. Quite skillful and he was physically better developed than I thought. Obviously this is based on just the one game I saw so I it could as well count for nothing. Interesting to still see him included
{Ed002's Note - I don't see it going anywhere.}
Fair enough, he only just moved clubs as well so I wouldn't have hoped for it to happen anyway. Cheers Ed
Thanks ed that's great! Appreciate that!
We've moved on from Imbula ed? Were we not able to negotiate a price or have found a better alternative? Thanks!
{Ed002's Note - It is simply what I said.}
Thanks for the info ed002!
Is it PSG who are interested in Oscar and Ivanovic?
{Ed002's Note - Yes.}
Ed could you see a potential swap deal from PSG involving Cavani/Lavezzi for Oscar?
{Ed002's Note - I am not going to get involved in such discussions.}
Ed. thanks so much for the info. This is exactly why you are such a legend! It doesn't really matter what does and doesn't happen.we just all love he speculation. Keep p the great work.
