hey ed,

are chelsea nearing a deal for lucas ocampos?

thanks, cali {Ed002's Note - No. River Plate's Lucas Ocampos has been looked at by a number of sides with Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Chelsea maintaining an interest. I understand that Diego Caniggia took a look on behalf of Liverpool but it was decided that he would be too expensive to buy and that seems to have ended any brief interest that Liverpool had. Inter Milan, Sevilla and Palermo have also shown an interest and Juventus (not either of the Milan clubs) made a bid.}

I think we should keep Torres and build around him.Would also like didier to stay as he still has a lot to offer.Lavezzi and robben on wings to add much needed pace.I also like ivanovic as our RB,but reports suggest he's not happy there so maybe try for Richards or walker if possible.
Possible targets:
Falcao,cavani,Lavezzi,robben,di Maria
Any 3 of the five are a must for next season.
Don't think keeping di matteo as manager would attract big names to the club.Would love to see mourinho back or Juergen klopp from Dortmund.

We can't build around Torres and still keep Drogba, the two don't go together. Time to cut loose Drogba ans his massive influence and let Torres flourish. I don't see Drogba accepting a massive paycut to be a squad player, his ego won't allow it. As his agent stated, he'll go to whoever is offering the most money and at 34 it would b silly for Chelsea to offer a massive contract to a player on his way down. China is the most likely destination for him (IMO) {Ed002's Note - The issue with Drogba is the length of contract. Chelsea offered one year and he wants two years. It is not a money issue.}

What planet are you on?

Is this lad real? Build a team around Torres, but also sign Cavani or Falcao? Talk about rubbishing what you've just said! Some idiots post on here! We do need 2 good wingers though, Robben would do me, should never have sold him!

We should not keep Drogba he should be sold and and quality striker should be signed...i agree Torres has shown some great form recently...he should stay...we need quality winger like hazard,di maria,robben etc and one or two quality midfielder.
