02 Sep 2013 22:33:25
I believe you eds before twitter but the twitter guys have been spot on today and they seem to think mata to psg is still on. Surely we cannot sell at this late stage unless zlatan is part of the deal.
02 Sep 2013 21:42:35
What's happening with Ba then ed? Looks like Lukaku is going to WBA! And we are over our home grown allowance
02 Sep 2013 22:24:11
Ed French media still reporting Mata to P$G *sigh*
Would the deal need to be done by our deadline or the French deadline?
Surely it would have needed to be the French deadline as they were going to be bringing him in. It was all media rubbish in an attempt to 'spice up' deadline day. {Ed002's Note - The deadlines were the same - so it is irrelevant.}
02 Sep 2013 22:18:55
Hi ed
With ba and lukaku being touted about do you see us making a late bid for a striker? And if so any idea who?
Thanks
Jaye1705 {Ed018's Note - it doesn't look like it}
Hopefully means mata not going either
02 Sep 2013 22:09:18
No more ins and outs apart from loans would you say that's likely ed?
Did P$G ever enter talks to sign Mata or just enquire? {Ed018's Note - I heard enquire and didn't hear anything after that}
I suspect Jose taught them two new words of English then. The second was Off, let you speculate the rest ed ;)
No more ins and outs apart from loans then Ed?
02 Sep 2013 21:33:06
ssn reporting Lukaku heading back to WBA on loan and is on his way to their training ground now.
Looking like Ba and Torres will be staying.
Now they are saying Everton are pushing and he is not even in the country, with the Belguim squad I guess.
This is madness. Lukaka is by far better than Torres and Ba. I cannot get my head around this and feel the only reason is that Jose has a problem with him. as it can't be down to footballing ability. He would have done great for CFC this season!
02 Sep 2013 20:58:00
Any updates ed's? {Ed018's Note - I wish I could tell you but I've heard very little and not much}
02 Sep 2013 20:59:15
Two hours. No movement. Heard anything ed? Any last effort for khedira?
Do you think it's too late now for any deals from chelsea for players in?
02 Sep 2013 20:56:22
New reports in France saying Mata deal has fallen through and P$G are now looking at Kagawa!
02 Sep 2013 20:55:04
Ed any truth about Hulk? IMO Lukaku is going nowhere.
02 Sep 2013 20:38:11
ED are Chelsea really interested in Ibrahimovic or is it rubbish?
02 Sep 2013 20:49:34
Please tell me were loaning lukaku out and keeping Ba is move to arsenal just fell through
02 Sep 2013 20:42:52
Ba stays lukaku to Everton no players coming in mata stays
02 Sep 2013 20:05:44
Lukaku going on loan to Everton? Surely we are looking to sign another striker or we will be left with Torres and Eto!
02 Sep 2013 20:04:09
With Ba leaving and Everton keen on taking Lukaku on loan, surely we'd be looking for another striker. Torres and Eto'o are two great options, but two strikers isn't really enough.
For the record I didn't class Schürle as a striker as he impressed me far more when he played on the right last week.
02 Sep 2013 19:45:25
Everton are trying to sign Romelu Lukaku on loan accoriding to ssn
02 Sep 2013 19:15:26
ssn reporting Mata will not leave Chelsea!
If this is true and we sign a top CB and striker as well as moving on Ba and loans for the youngsters we have had a truly excellent window in my opinion.
Obviously I would love what your suggesting, but I can't really see us buying two players from now till 11:00 that won't be the sort that go straight out on loan or in the reserves. Personally I think we need to go for one more striker as we will be loaning out Ba almost for certain. Seeing as Yilmaz's move to Lazio has fallen through I don't see why we shouldn't go for him again seeing as Jackson Martinez would cost an insane amount of money now.
02 Sep 2013 19:10:09
Now French TV is reporting that Mata is having discussions with PSG. Really hope its not true! It would be great if it turned out the whole deal with Mata not being played for the last few weeks was just a clever trick by Mourinho to try and distract people like Wenger into placing bids for him despite us having no intention to let him go. Wouldn't put it past him!
Ssn claiming we are not interested in selling Mata and have no idea about PSG interest! Sounds like we told them he wasn't for sale after the enquiry!
Really hoping this is true!
Thank god, I hope your right. It's weird up until today I was completely unfazed by the Mata rumours and presumed they were all made up and then suddenly today I'm terrified he's going to leave. Been glued to tv red button all day!
02 Sep 2013 19:04:09
Reports coming out of italy tottenham offered a swap torres for adebayor,
In my opinion mata is gone jose has shown no interest in him, seems madness our best player
'Showed no interest' apart from in every press conference saying he isn't going? he started a game and looked really unfit. pipe down
If he was unfit he wouldn't be sat on the bench like luiz wasnt,
Yeah, Luiz was injured
02 Sep 2013 19:01:58
Sportsmail understands that Chelsea are said to be in talks with a striker, which could see them release Demba Ba to West Ham. but it will be a late one.
Ba of course starred at the Hammers during a short spell in 2011. {Ed002's Note - Ba is due to go regardless as Chelsea is over the non-home grown allocation.}
Yes but who is the striker we are in talks for ed? {Ed013's Note - Unfortunately I can't see another striker coming in unless more than Ba leaves}
Well club is apparantly in talks for striker but no idea who
02 Sep 2013 18:50:53
If there is any truth in
Mata to P$G then Hulk to Chelsea then Damiao to Zenit:
That is truly appalling business. Overrated and unnecessary would much rather just see Mata kept unless we are getting a great deal (like Ibrahimovic and £30 million which obviously won't happen.) 91 goals/assists in two seasons. Hulk definitely not the answer.
Still praying for Lewandoski, I know it's a long shot but I can dream?
The problem I would have if we were to sign Lewandowski, (and just to be clear I think there is zero chance) is the fact that he clearly wants to move to Bayern and would probably only want to stay with us for a season or two at most. Plus his attitude might be terrible.
02 Sep 2013 18:48:27
Another rumour from France that psg have offered ibrahimovic in exchange for mata, more rubbish I suppose.
02 Sep 2013 18:33:19
Please don't say we're going for hulk. And if its true about mata. There's only one solution. Swap deal for Rooney. Which striker at this late hour could we get, let's be realistic.
Cannot imagine that anyone short of Messi or Ronaldo could outweigh loss of Mata, but what do I know. Well, what I do know is that I'd be devastated if Mata left. But can't believe this could happen.
02 Sep 2013 17:52:17
ED do you see Chelsea bidding for any players till 11 oclock? {Ed002's Note - Yes.}
Im Giddy
Ed.
Who!
Could you tell us who or shall we wait and see?
Cheers ed
02 Sep 2013 18:33:07
Thanks ED, i'm excited again.
Someone other then Dier or Bruma Ed002? could there be a surprise in store?, bet you can't wait until tomorrow when all this is over.
02 Sep 2013 17:23:26
Lets hope these rumours linking us with hulk again are more rubbish
Agreed. Hulk not what we need. Rooney of Lewandowski would have fitted our needs, and De Rossi for Mikel could also have improved us. But seems unlikely that we will be bringing anyone in.
Just read the same rumour, also hope its usual bull. Not what we need. Lewandowski or Suarez that's it.
It took me a good while to figure it out. I think he means The Special One, could be wrong tho. Personally I don't think Jose leaving the training ground means anything. I'd assume all business like that is handled in the city somewhere
Imagine that our transfer activity today, sell mata and sign hulk. What a nightmare
02 Sep 2013 15:42:30
Hi Eds,
Is the rumour that PSG are planning a bid for Mata true?
Thanks for any help {Ed018's Note - yes they have asked if he is avalible, that's all I know right now}
Ed do you think he will leave and if yes is a replacement planned? {Ed018's Note - I really don't know}
Ok thanks for the help. Please could you update if you find out anymore? Thanks.
Unless we receive an astronomical fee and purchase Mesut Ozil, then I can't see Chelsea selling Juan Mata; it would be pure lunacy.
I'd accept anything above 50m. From that amount on it would be a good deal (that's just the way I see it so don't slate me for it). Use 30-40 mil on draxler as a replacement
02 Sep 2013 15:36:40
Any truth in Mata to P$G? I'd demand at least £25 million and Ibrahimovic, a deal they would never accept! Or as cash only they can start at £45 million!
I hope not.
I did mean to ask this to you Eds! Any truth in it or is it L'Equipe spouting bull again?
02 Sep 2013 12:57:32
Ed, can you see Liverpool bidding for Juan Mata? I wouldn't think he'd want to go seeing as Mourinho has admitted his faith in him and surely we would demand any deal to be £30-35+ million if cash only or involving Suarez? {Ed018's Note - no, I don't see this happening}
Glad to hear it Ed! Various news sources are reporting Liverpool are going to make a late bid after their supposed 'enquiry'! Any details? {Ed018's Note - I have heard nothing of the sort}
Having said that. Could we separately bid for Suarez today? And also could there be any other bids from any clubs today for 'wantaway' Juan Mata? {Ed018's Note - I don't think we will be making a move for Suarez. Madrid could very well make another move for him. I really don't know if anyone will make a move for Mata but I don't see him leaving}
Thanks ed, last things.
Could we potentially sign Lewandoski today?
And who if anyone might bid for Mata? {Ed018's Note - no I wouldn't think so. I don't know if anyone will bid for Mata}
Mata will stay, believe! It was never in doubt
02 Sep 2013 12:20:10
Eds any truth in the Ba to Arsenal on loan rumours? {Ed002's Note - They have asked if he would be available on loan.}
02 Sep 2013 11:48:08
Chelsea will sign 1 player today who is likely to be Robert lewandowski. Speculations are coming that chelsea are in talk in borussia Dortmund. COME ON CHELSEA. Also we are about to loan demba ba to arsenal as they have shown interest
Where exactly are you hearing this then?
Ed002? This has to be incorrect?
Not a chance!
About as likely as me winning the euromillions jackpot.
I got more chance of taking out Kelly brook on Saturday night lol
02 Sep 2013 10:48:33
Just heard a rumour that Khedira may be on the move from real? Any truth ed? {Ed002's Note - They would like to sell. He wants to stay. Discussions over price resulted in Cheleea walking away.}
Thanks ed. great work on here. Glad to have you back.
02 Sep 2013 10:31:04
Ed 002 Is there any news on Chalobah & Mc Eachran loans as yet?
Thanks. {Ed002's Note - Nope.}
Chalobah is heading to palace on loan for the season if rumours are to be believed
Thanks 'Win' just read that and fingers crossed the deal goes thru as a season in the PL would be great as long as he gets games.
They have a decent holding MF player so I am wondering what the plan might be for him.
02 Sep 2013 00:16:43
Hi ed
Any striker we can sign today?
Rooney
Suarez
Lewandoski?
Also is mata staying or going? Incase he leave do we have any chance tonsign ozil?
Thanks
Fahad {Ed002's Note - Chelsea continue to try and bring players in - we have been through all of this. Oezil is a player the Real Madrid would rather not lose but he wants to understand his options. At the end of the day he would likely do best to stay where he is.}
01 Sep 2013 23:01:19
Eds, do you expect us to make a bid for Jackson MARTINEZ tomorrow? I'm hoping we meet his current buy out clause and we have a top striker at last. Please let your answer bring hope! {Ed002's Note - The situation remains as before - if the player is available at the right price then Chelsea are interested. But I have explained the difficulties.}
02 Sep 2013 00:20:32
Hi ed I know mourinho said he wasn't going to pursue Rooney, but after the games earlier and Rooney not playing and the game against chelsea where I must say he had an amazing game. Is there any chance that was his send of game and he could join us. {Ed018's Note - I really can't see Rooney joining at this point}
Thanks ed just for him to be out with a head injury stitches usually you would see a vital player bandaged up he could of at least been on the bench. Usually when he's injured he's spotted at the game especially one of this calibre and with mourinho looking a striker who if not Rooney.
