Hey Ed, are Chelsea really interested in Wigan's James Mcarthy as a successor/replacement for Lampard? {Ed001's Note - I don't believe so, not first choice from what I can find out anyway.}

Hey ed wats happening with javier Pastore ? {Ed002's Note - Pastore may well be moving this summer - it seems to be on/off week-by-week. Palermo is a difficult club to deal with (to say the least) and money is not something they are short of. They crave success and I would not be surprised to see him stay another season. Juventus have been knocked back with their standard offer of €20m in cash plus Raffaelle Palladino, Amauri and Sebastian Giovinco in exchange, on loan or in part-ownership as part of the deal. Chelsea are looking for a long-term replacement for Lampard and Manchester United are looking for a long-term replacement for Scholes. He is certainly not top of Chelsea's transfer list but they will keep a watching brief. The rejected bid that was publicised was certainly from Manchester City. Liverpool had shown an interest before Christmas but will struggle with the price - which if he is sold is likely to be the highest of the summer. The fee will be in the region of £50M or a part ownership deal may well be negotiated.}

Hey ED don't you think we should go for HULK, I mean he can play out wide and can play in the middle. He has pace and the physique to cope with the English football. So what's your preference Hulk or Sanchez? {Ed002's Note - Of the two, Sanchez.}

Ed, how many players do you really feel like Chelsea need to buy this summer to improve? 3 or 4 seem like a good number to me. I can't see some big revolution like I read in some places. Especially when I believe they will probably be spending over 100 million easily to get those 3 or 4 players {Ed001's Note - so long as the right players are bought it matters little how many are bought. I can see a need for a right back, central midfielder, wide midfielders and a striker, maybe a keeper too because Cech is still not playing anything like as well as he did before his terrible head injury. But they don't all have to be brought in during the summer, a couple of them can make a huge difference.}

Ed, why arent we linked with Bojan, he would be solid as a wing fwrd, he has a lot of potential, and is young - and would be a lot cheaper than someone like sanchez (whos a similar frame?)

{Ed002's Note - This is a strange question. It is very difficult to substantiate a negative. I have no idea why speculation hasn't happened.}

So Ed, from that last statement Chelsea interested in Bojan.

{Ed002's Note - No.}

Buy neymar, aguero, pastore, subotic, van der viel

Sell drogba, anelka, bosingwa, ferraria, malouda, Alex

That'd be ideal for me. Sure it won't happen like that

No im saying which players would u like 2 c at differnt clubs and what team will b the most active cum the transfer markerts with players coming and going thanks ed {Ed002's Note - I would like to see Kalou at a different club - any club, I am not bothered. Chelsea will be active as will Liverpool and Spurs. Manchester City will probably be the most active in terms of selling.}

Hey ED, what are the chances of Chelsea managing to get both Neymar and Lukaku? {Ed002's Note - Why do you always ask about pairs of players? I refer you to earlier answers.}

Ed, why does Abramovich want Mourinho? Is it not the same Abramovich who criticized Mourinho for not playing entertaining football? Do you think players like Neymar with flair/dribbling skills can fit into Mourinho's direct/dull football? If Abramovich wants players like Neymar and entertaining style of football like Barcelona's he shouldn't think of hiring Mourinho as manager. For me, he should hire a coach like Villas Boas who plays entertaining football. Ed, what's your opinion on this matter? {Ed001's Note - because he wants the Champions League trophy. Jose may like to play a nasty, boring, defensive, negative, diving style of football, but he wins.}

Hey Ed Don't you think it's a good idea to keep Lampard for another season or two and permanently use McEachran? I mean why buy expensive players. I say Sahin is a cheap alternative too he can play in the middle of the Attacking midfield and can play behind the striker role. Mikel's performance impressed me yesterday it's making things a lot more complicated
Ivanovic-Luiz-Terry-Cole
Ramires-Mikel-McEachran/Sahin
I think we should sell Essien too he's just not good anymore. {Ed001's Note - why would Sahin be a cheap alternative? He is not going to come for under 20m, if he can be got at all. The problem with relying on McEachran is that he might not make the most of his potential. What happens then? The central midfield is the most important part of the pitch, it has to be right.}

So you had to bring off yr 50m signing again tonight, i bet hes feeling so happy inside himself, shows yr crap manager, you need a win so you bring off yr 50m striker, have faith in him, hes not going to do anything if you keep taking him off, you should ban roman from the club and let the manager pick the team and tactics, go on chavs give it a go you know you want to, if spuds, pool, arsenal, man u, were needing a goal would any of them take off a 50m striker?

Ed, if Neymar joins Chelsea, will he start or resort to the bench until he fully develops? {Ed002's Note - There is no way I can answer that as I don't pick the team. How about a year on loan at Hull?}

Oh I laughed so hard at this. aha .
