Dear Ed, now that we have Costa as our 1st striker what's the situation about Number 2 and 3. Ba and Torres are expected to leave(as per your posts). Chelsea are out to sell Lukaku (unless something changes after his recent good showing against USA).

Are we going for another high profile striker or we just want a back up. Any new names besides Mandzukic, Lavezzi, Aubameyang? Hope we really aren't going for Emenike, as some reports suggest.

One last thing, if Madrid manage to sign James Rodriguez, are they still expected to go for Falcao? Any chance of Falcao coming to Chelsea if Madrid move doesn't work out?

Cheers

{Ed002's Note - There is nothing knew about the forwards and Chelsea do have an interest in those you mention. Real Madrid want both Falcao and Rodriguez - it is not one or the other.}

Hey Ed, I know you have no interest in putting updates anymore but could you please tell us if we still have an interest in any centre mids except Pogba, or is it a case of Pogba or burst, We'll settle with what we have?
Just checked out the european pages and saw you're the one also handling proceedings there, you are doing a great job. Thanks alot

{Ed002's Note - I am sure it isn't Pogba or bust, but have explained that I know nothing of it at all but there is much speculation that Tiago will soon return to provide midfield cover.}

Well, I'm not sure we should buy another midfielder if it's not going to be Pogba. If the incoming player is not a fantastic player, then wouldn't it be just as good to give someone like Chalobah a chance (I recall Mourinho saying that this past season was going to be his last on loan)?
So to me, it actually kind of is Pogba or bust.
