hi ed is there any interest of young american brek shea of fc dallas he looks a great prospect. And as chelsea are heavily linked with higuain, is he unhappy and wants a move or are real madrid actually willing or keen to sell him and if they are is it to fund a mega bid for rooney. Finally are chelsea in the market for a defensive mid because even though romeu is a great prospect and is breaking into the first team, he may be repurchased by barcelona, and i dont think that AVB favours mikel very much any more.
thanks
webbo- {Ed002's Note - There is no interest in Shea right now - and he is nowhere close to being good enough as a first team regular. There is no point in getting in to what Real Madris might do with any money that Chelsea give them for Higuain - I cannot comment sensibly on speculation from the trash UK press. Cheslea are not looking to replace Romeu who arrived in the summer.}

Ed you said there was no interest in Shea right now, does that mean hes being looked at to be brought in maybe next year or the year after, i mean Lukaku's good but he's not good enough to be a first team regular so why dont we buy him and loan him back untill he is ready looks like hes got alot of potential

thanks
webbo- {Ed002's Note - No I would have said that. If you are going to try and unpick everything I say otherwise I will simply stop giving any information at all.}

Sorry didnt mean to be an annoyance im just really interested in this guy, and i really appreciate the information that you do give, thanks always webbo {Ed001's Note - if you had watched a lot of Brek Shea, you would see that he is nowhere near good enough for the Prem. He is an exceedingly average player at best.}

Romeu said that at this time he isn't interested in moving back to Barcelona. I hope he continues playing for Chelsea as it can only help to convince him this is the best place for him.

who is the most likely replacement for nicola anelka? {Ed002's Note - Chelsea have a squad of players it is not really a case of buying replacements per se. Davila has already been bought and he may arrive at the end of the season (but I suspect he won't). There is interest in Eduado Vargas, but I am not so sure he could arrive in January. The club are trying to rebuild and replenish the squad - not look simply for like-for-like replacements.}

How much would you say Azpilicueta is worth ed?
Thanks {Ed002's Note - I really don't want to guess at prices. If I get it wrong I am leaving myself open to abuse and complaint so it is really not worth the grief. I can't see the prices matter at all.}

Who are the other teams in the race for cahill what whould his price be and where is his most likely destination Ed?
Please could you answer these...Thanks {Ed002's Note - The North London clubs; not expensive; I can't say the most likely with any confidence, but Chelsea have held talks with Bolton.}
