Ed is it true Chelsea are the only club that are willing to pay the price for iCardi and he is considering it apparently.

ED,

Any truth to Kenedy going on loan at Watford? Seems like a good move for him to get some regular game time.

Apparently Miagza also going in loan to a prem side?

Thanks in advance.

{Ed018's Note - I'm not sure to be honest. It's a good bet that both will be out on loan though and Watford would be good for Kenedy as long as he gets a good amount of playing time}

Ed do you expect the Olympics to have finished before the Maio and Barbosa deals get finalised, to whichever clubs?

Believable1 Unbelievable1

{Ed018's Note - I would think so}

Ed018 have had an update from ed002 recently or know anything?
Thanks.

Believable3 Unbelievable1

{Ed018's Note - nothing in the last couple days. Koulibaly is still the center back they want although there is a plan B, and there are 3 players of interest playing in the Olympics right now, and I think it's safe to assume Thiago Maia is one of them}

Thank you.

Agree0 Disagree2

Who's the plan B if you don't mind me asking Ed? please not Kone?

Agree1 Disagree1

12 Aug 2016 19:18:02
Lindelof could be that plan B.

Agree0 Disagree1

Prob a load of bull but ed018 can you shed any light on this

Blues bid £39m for Joao Mario'?

Thanks!

Believable2 Unbelievable1

{Ed018's Note - no. The last I heard it would probably be between Chelsea and Inter and the player would prefer a move to Italy but that was a ways back, so who knows right now. He's a decent player but I'm not sure it's what Chelsea need right now}

I think judging by our transfer activity its safe to say conte will play with 3 at the back.

Don't think he will, surely tht would have been tested in pre season.

Agree1 Disagree1

{Ed018's Note - yea I don't see how he could possibly play this way right now. It wasn't used at all in preseason and I don't believe they have the right players for this. The 4-3-3 or 4-1-4-1, whatever you want to call it looks to be the best option right now}

Agree ed018.

Roman always uses 4 2 3 1 so don't expect a change in formation.
