Hi ed do Chelsea have any interest in signing soldado? {Ed002's Note - Chelsea have considered the player.}

Believable2 Unbelievable4

How recently ed? {Ed002's Note - Timescales are pretty unimprortant but in the last couple of months.}

Agree0 Disagree2

Ok cheers mate

Agree1 Disagree0

Maybe they should consider submitting a bid for a striker because let's be honest if we don't get a striker who actually scores goals we are going to struggle to finish top 4! Can't rely on our midfield all season to scrape wins. {Ed002's Note - There is no way the club are going to buy anyone just for the hell of spending money.}

Agree3 Disagree0

I think soldado would be a good buy, looks to be scoring for fun and lets face it Chelsea need to buy a goalscorer

Agree3 Disagree0

We need a good finisher, one with confidence to score goals. I think torres needs to be loaned out to a spanish club.

do you know who that one other signing might be that avb would like to bring in ?

Believable2 Unbelievable4

Jesus, read what he says in the previous posts:

"Ed002's Note - I have no interest in trying to explain anything he says in interviews."

{Ed002's Note - I have said since before he gave his first interview never read too much in to what he says and please don't ask me to substantiate anything.}

Agree3 Disagree1

Alvaro Pereira

Agree2 Disagree3

No i will ask you everything he says even if it's about his mother's maiden name:P love ya ;) xx

hi ed mate when r chelsea meeting with cahill rpresentitives again and r they any closer {Ed002's Note - I have no idea when they are meeting again. As I said last week I expect it to be sealed some time this week. Unfortunately that did not meet the expectations of the Twitter users.}

Ed, do you think Chelsea may be looking to sell Essien in january or in summer, because of his injury record? {Ed002's Note - There is no plan to sell him right now.}

Believable0 Unbelievable1

Has any progress been made to sign De Bruyne? {Ed002's Note - Nothing has changed.}

Believable1 Unbelievable1

09 Jan 2012 17:19:01
Hey ED, Villas Boas told Sky Sports that Chelsea was going to try and sign 1 more player after Cahill...........do you know what type of player he is looking for?

Or even better, do you know who he is actually trying to buy?

Thanks ED. {Ed002's Note - I have no interest in trying to explain anything he says in interviews.}

Believable4 Unbelievable2

Krasic i reckon,

Agree3 Disagree4

Yes I do remember you stressing to us the importance of not taking AVB's interviews too seriously. Fair enough ED.

Any reason to why this is though? Do you believe that what he says during the interviews does not reflect his true intent?

Thanks ED

Agree3 Disagree2

Obviously....

Agree2 Disagree2

In my opinion we have the creative play maker everyone is looking for, in Mata he has been playing mainly on the left and playing well. Mata is much more suited to a CAM role, and will thrive in that position, if we can bring in a sturdy striker with out the pressure of a £30+million price tag. Ba would be a good choice, although i believe he will not leave this january!
So how about Leandro Damião or Mario Gómez? Are they a possibility ed?
Although i would prefer to see Sturridge get a shot at the ST role and bring in 1/2 wingers. Lavezzi, Di Maria,Pedro ;) , Navas or Bastos, i could see all/any of these bringing something really worth while to Chelsea, so i ask you Ed do you have any comments regarding the interest/availability of these wingers?
Thank you
Much love! {Ed002's Note - I don't see any of those players arriving in January.}

Believable3 Unbelievable5

Ok thanks ed, although is that because of all sorts of restriction or your personal opinion. {Ed002's Note - To be fair they are a random list of players you like - what do you expect the interest to be?

Agree2 Disagree2

My opinion:
BA:dont think he would fit in at chelsea.
Pedro:To weak and small for the Prem.
Navas: To weak and samll for prem and health issues.
Bastos: Gets injured to much.
Damiao: Probably not good enough for the prem.
Gomez: Love to see him in blue but i doubt Munchen would sell him in january as they want to win the champions league.
Di Maria: Love to see him however i think he is only worth 20million.

ML

Agree2 Disagree5

If mata plays in the middle then we still need 2 wingers

Agree4 Disagree2

OP, Yea i agree mata in the middle but you have sturridge on one wing, with great pace and skill (just needs to learn how to cross/pass), so one winger, unless you put sturridge in the ST position.
And Ed, its not a ''random list of players i like'' its a list of players i believe have realistic price tags and have alot to offer Chelsea. I see them pretty much all as fast nimble players that given the right threw ball from ram, mata or essien can create and score alot of goals for us! {Ed002's Note - Sounds like a random list of players you like which may have acceptable price tags then.}

Hi Edi,

I am sorry but I am asking repeat question , "Are we not going to sign Cahil? I mean there are so many rumor about him linking to Man U. Should chelsea fans worry about those rumors?

Thanks,
B {Ed002's Note - I would not worry about rumours. I have explained what I know and nothing has changed. I cannot control all of the rubbish on Twitter and all this trash about press conferences.}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Thanks Ed,

There have been rumours that Chelsea maybe interested in Demba Ba if his release clause is 5 mil can you clarify ed please {Ed002's Note - I have no idea about his contract. Sorry.}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

His release Claus is 10 ,hes a beast we need to look into him ,ed do I remember u mention knee problems in his Newcastle medical? {Ed002's Note - It was a Stoke medical and a medical on the mainland somewhere - perhaps Belgium or France.}

Agree0 Disagree2

Hmm not sure about letting kalou go at this point, hes one of them that will sit on the bench no complaints and come on and get you a goal, sure a new attacking signing will ease any doubts tho. I actually think Kalou would thrive at a midtable club like Arsenal ;)

LIAM

Believable4 Unbelievable3

What mid table club in the champions league and 1 point behind us ? But I agree we shouldn't let him go until we have a replacement and we shouldn't be feeding rivals either!

Agree3 Disagree4

Actually Chelsea is a midtable club at the moment! And they won us 3:5...let's not forget about it

Agree1 Disagree7

Yet we still see ourselves above them so they are more mid table than us buddy!1

Agree4 Disagree0

Its called banter lads!!

LIAM

Agree2 Disagree0

Yeah and there is a separate page for that!

Believable2 Unbelievable1

It will take as long as it takes my friend!

Believable3 Unbelievable7

Arsenal have denied it to the BBC

Agree3 Disagree1

Ive never heard such rubbish..

Agree0 Disagree0

Then you would want to look at a few earlier posts coz theres some right rubbish ones on hear lol

AVB waiting on confirmed interest if any from;
Arsenal for Kalou
QPR/Juve/Santos for Alex
PSG for Malouda
Chinese clubs in for Drogba

Cahill deal nearing completion with Chelsea offering 100k a week.

January interest for Chelsea revolves around Milos Krasic at Juve and Chelsea have made an enquiry and striker Barrios at Dortmund.

Believable6 Unbelievable4

Can't see us offering him 100k a week when the original offer less then 1 week ago was around 50k a week, I agree with the rest of your post though, wouldn't mind Barrios as a stop-gap if we could get him on the cheap!

Agree0 Disagree1

ED02 Is it true Arsenal are in talks with Kalou? {Ed002's Note - See earlier answer.}

Believable2 Unbelievable0

We shouldn't do business with rivals especially ones that can pip us to the champions league spots. Regardless of how good or bad people think kalou is if he scores a Couple of important goals from now it will cost us big. Benayoun scored the winner for them not to long ago, who knows what them 2 points might be worth at the end of the season. Just let him go on a free at the end of the season when he can be replaced. If we wanted someone from arsenal they would tell us where to go, should be they same from us. We won't even get 3mllion from arsenal either.

Agree4 Disagree1

Ed would the Ivory Coast allow Kalou to come back to England to negotiate a deal with Arsenal? They were adament that he and Drogba join up with the squad rather than play in the FA Cup {Ed002's Note - Absolutelty not.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Where are you findin this info out cos i would very much like to see the site as sky sports is rubbish with updates!!

Agree0 Disagree0

If this is true we should use him to get walcott i no he aint evryones cup of tea but he could do a great job putting in crosses and attacking the wing for us

matt {Ed002's Note - But there is no interest in Walcott.}

Agree0 Disagree0
