Hi Ed’s, tried searching but can’t see anything from you.
lots of stories about hazard to Madrid, Willian to Barca, maybe even Kante leaving - is there any truth in these sides being interested?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed018's Note - yes there’re is interest in Hazard from Madrid and interest in William from Barcelona. I don’t know if any concrete interest in Kante. Im sure there is, but I don’t expect him to be going anywhere}

Liverpool fan here, I hope kante waits at Chelsea this season I think it would be great to see him and keita in the same league.

TBH, I’m happy with Sarri however I wish we could get the people who are coming in done. Then those that are going get them out for best possible price. Willian and courtoise def will go. If we can get 85-90million I’d be happy. I’d like to keep Eden but if they are going to sell, then not for less than 180 million. But let’s get all this done. So we can have period of calm before season as opposed to the last minute madness.

As an aside I personally love Dybala and would to see him at Chelsea.

Hello ed,
Are Chelsea looking to secure a deal for pogba

Cheers.

{Ed018's Note - he’s been offered to Chelsea but I can’t imagine Chelsea are ready to pay I’m sure the outrageous transfer fee, wages, and agent fees that will come with any deal for Pogba}

No thanks to that one. I thought he was a waste of money when they bought him. He was someone who Jose desperately wanted. IMO he’s not suited to the premier league. He’s suited to a slower moving game.
We just need to remember what they have palmed us off with in the past, Veron and Falcon to name but two.

tbh I could see it happen if hazard was to go they will want a big name to replace him and nobody in a Utd shirt really performed well last season.

Thank you ed for the update.
Agree with Doug, with hazard set to leave, a trio of jorginho Kante and pogba with golovin bakayoko and Barkley as backup would be just amazing. SarriBall is something I'm looking forward to, would be interesting to see who we add and sell this window.

Cheers.

Surely players get fed up with agents getting in the way of deals and trying to make themselves so much Lindy when your hires to get your client the best deal, I read pjanic agents trying to get him a move yet pjanic wants to stay at Juve. miss players like scholes and Adams who never had agents and would deal with stuff themselves, that said Pogba would be immense next to jorginho and kante. pogba in, hazard captain. Willian and Pedro out, bailey and fekir in, Giroud Athletico and Higuain ( reluctantly ) with Morata and Michy and Courtois out and Donnarumma and cech ( mentor ) in, Drinkwater Bakayoko and Zouma out Rugani in, Loftus Cheek and Barkley to add competition with Cesc for midfield with Europa league and cups, luiz kept around as Sarri will like his style, Cahill I dunno about, that's THE DREAM ANYWAY,

Don't ask for much do you Matt! Although that would be awesome.

Agree0 Disagree0

21 Jul 2018 18:43:48
Haha problem is mate it’s the hope that kills you lol but in all honestly the talk of our midfield and Jorginho and kante. the 3rd person in that needs to be prolific in scoring or assisting. We need goals from midfield which we seriously lacked last year, is Loftus Cheek a goal scorer or Barkley up to it. big question is that final place.

Agree0 Disagree0

any idea what's going on with willian? does he want to go. do we want to sell? . he's been extremely professional about it all has willian credit to him.

Agree0 Disagree0

Willian - professional. remember that Fa cup win and he covered conte in emoji so he wasn’t in photo,

Agree1 Disagree0

22 Jul 2018 06:37:54
Matt - yes we need someone prolific in scoring, maybe Toni Kroos fits the bill.
we all can cut Willian some slack, he has been professional for most parts, hard to be when emotions run high.

seen apparently one of golovin team mates wished him all the best at Chelsea on Twitter I guess we may hear somthing today.

Seems like Malcom is off to Roma. Really think it's a mistake not buying him, wouldn't surprise me The tiniest bit to see them sell him in two season for 100 mil or so.

OK he is 29 but would hate Perisic to be grabbed by United. Feel that this is crucial window for CFC's medium terms future re whether we fall considerably behind likes of City, UTd and now LFC in terms of depth and quality of squad or can keep pace and hopefully overhaul them.

Anyone else agree that Wilf Zaha would be a brilliant signing at this stage? Would probably cost £60-70m which isn't far off the price we'll get for Willian. Homegrown too! His pace is terrifying and would suit the Sarri formation of 433.

Third bid for Willian take it and get Leon Bailey!

Believable2 Unbelievable0

21 Jul 2018 10:43:01
Perhaps if Bailey was a definite but the danger is that we lose Willian and Hazard - are two best attacking players - in same window and cannot replace them with anything like the smae quality. Would hope that the club would want deals for genuinely quality replacements (though Hazard probably irreplaceable) organised before any sales.

We're being linked with Joe Hart today, out of all the goalkeepers I seriously hope we don't end up with him as he has been awful the past few years.

Donnarumma looks like the best and most realistic option available.

Oblak is the dream, but with no champions league football it's never going to happen.

So our options seem to be: Butland, Cech, Cillessen, Donnarumma and Scheimchel.

I would take Jack Butland working with Cech. 6'5", 25 years old, played in behind shocking defences and he is English, to me ideal.

Agree1 Disagree0

21 Jul 2018 10:40:50
I’d avoid Schmeichel and Cillessen. Cech should only be second choice if signed. I don’t rate Butland but we do need homegrown players especially if Cahill leaves.
