This will more than likley not get answered but ill try anyway:

ed002, would the increased exposure for kenneth omeruo contribute to him getting a work permit to play in england next year or not? he seems to be making a name for himself at the confed cup and afcon.

answer would be appreciated

He is still a few games short at international level to qualify (75% of competive games in the last 2 years) but he may well qualify if an applcation were to be made on the grounds of him being an exceptional talent

Promise, cavani will be great if we buy him hope we pay the money be great to have him at bridge.

Think he may go Madrid and I personally will be gutted.

I think we should just buy Higuain. Forget dealing with Napoli and over paying for Cavani and just buy Higuain for 25£. His goal to game ratio is superb for Madrid, he has got pace, skill, finishing, great link up play and he's younger than cavani. And we would be stealing him away from arsenal which makes it even sweeter.
Thoughts?

My god. is that the resaon real are selling him?
his goal to game ratio last seaosn was awful

Agree0 Disagree0

Im starting to think 63m euros is a bit to steep. Higuain would be a good 2nd option.

Agree0 Disagree0

Anything above 45m euros for Cavani is too much for me. I've liked Higuain all along to be brought in but I don't think it'll happen as Roman likes to buy the biggest stars.

Franco

Agree0 Disagree0

17 goals 7 assists in 25 appearances last season is not awful and Madrid are selling him because he has requested to leave. But in the past years his ratio has been even better you angry sad person.

Cali

Agree0 Disagree0

Higuain scored a goal every 109 minutes last season against cavani 103. Cavani however had 7 penalties. Higuain also had more assists!

Spearce96

Agree0 Disagree0

I have a hard time not feeling the numbers are inflated when Madrid would put 5 goals up on teams regularly without breaking a sweat.

Is alcantara a done deal at man utd?
heard 5mil a year and isco to city so no 4 amigos at chelsea fc. no creative style or tiki taka with mourinho. only defensive and quick counter attack football next season but we will still win bpl league.

I'm afraid Thiago is not really an option for chelsea. If you believe half the reports then he's already agreed a deal with united and only a few things need to be resolved between the clubs. So I don't think it will be possible to get him

Jackson

Agree0 Disagree0

He wants to be a regular starter and I have a hard time justifying him over Oscar and he doesn't come close to mata or hazard.

Tk

Agree0 Disagree0

I still think staying put is his preferred option, if he is told he will get more game time he will stay.

So Napoli have now said that City have balked at the 63m euro clause in Cavani's contract, and that Real Madrid are the only team to have met it so far. He makes no mention of Chelsea. Will we also refuse to go that high, even though a previous bid was excepted?

Is it just me or is this cavani saga getting rather boring. He's a top player but I don't think we are that desperate. City won't pay, Madrid want Suarez I hope someone sees sense and tells laurentis to shove it.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Yes I must admit it is getting rather tedious. Proitos

Agree0 Disagree0

He will probably end up at Monaco or PSG when no one else can be bothered with Napoli anymore

2 formations deeding on players in or out

Chelsea announced a 10 years extension to their partnership with Adidas earlier today.
The AP are reporting that the deal is worth almost £300 million over the next decade.
It's a raise of nearly £10 million a year

DeLaRusso

Believable0 Unbelievable0

ED 018 do you no how this deal compares to other shirt deals that Manchester City or Utd have in place?

PB1989 {Ed018's Note - I have no idea, I really don't pay much attention to those kind of things}

Agree0 Disagree0

It was reported that Man City's 6 year deal with Nike is worth £72

Agree0 Disagree0

It's set to be the highest deal. Arsenal have a 5 year £150m deal with Puma that kicks in 2014/15

Agree0 Disagree0

It's the most lucrative and only Madrid makes more per year (£1m to be exact) than we do. That said over 10 years the numbers will rise.

Tk

Agree0 Disagree0

Man Utds 13 year Nike deal signed in 2002 was for £303M. There has been financial paper comment that in March this year Nike commenced discussion with United over a new deal which could be in excess of £70M a season.

Ed018 as we have interest in hulk and cavani are we willing to buy both players or is it a case of one or the other? And how have any talks etc gone regarding hulk. {Ed018's Note - I know there was interest in Hulk but I haven't heard anything recently. I really don't know if they want to bring in both. And quiet honestly I don't want Hulk at Chelsea. He's nowhere near good enough. I really don't see Hulk moving to Chelsea but I could be wrong}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Ok well thank you for responding. Napoli say man city pulled out of race for cavani, good news hope we sign him,

Eds, not chelsea related but do you have any idea if the 2014 world cup could be moved from brazil due to the problems there having during confederations cup. If fifa decide to change venues then surely england would be top of the list as we have the policing and venues to hold the cup now. I cannot see this happening but would like to hear peoples thoughts.

NWBLUE {Ed018's Note - I've got no idea. I get the feeling they are gonna have problems next summer over there though}

Kind of irrelevant but, what formation can you see us playing next season? And do people think Moses and Marin have a future at the club? Now we have Schurrle and De Buryne. To be honest I think Marin may face the chop and Moses may be loaned. Will be interesting how Mr Mourinho plays this one. Personally I think we only need one signing and that's a Cavani scale player. Defence and midfield is squared. Only if he plays Luiz in CDM should we go out and buy a CB and if Mikle goes then get Van Ginkle in. After next season if Lamps retires and Essien is moved on, then Piazon and Caluboah should be ready to step up to the mark if loaned correctly this season.
Just my view and please excuse spelling. Your thoughts are welcomed guys

Cfc Dan

Believable0 Unbelievable0

I think a 433 suits everyone in the team better except for mata. It gives Luiz additional bodys in the midfield so he has more freedom. It allows Oscar to play deeper and distribute the ball. It allows hazard to be closer to the net and with three midfielders he won't have to drop deep nearly as much. And whoever our striker is won't be nearly as isolated.

Tk

Agree0 Disagree0

22 Jun 2013 03:29:33
Dan. We need the like of marin and moses as back up in infact we need them to have a strong bench as in the special one first year at chelsea were we have almost two strong teams in the squad, that why we started the season very strong and finish strong

Inns that I would love:

-De Rossi
-Morata
-Di Maria


Chelsea xi:

Cech

Azpilicueta**Omeruo*Luiz**Cole

********Oscar***De Rossi****

************Mata***********

Di Maria**************Hazard

************Lukaku*********

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Di Maria? I can't stand players who just fall over under the slightest of touches. Just like hulk no thanks.

Agree0 Disagree0

Glad you are not the manager. Very poor selection, so what happens with Schurle and de Bruyne. Lukaku will play but he will not be the first choice

Agree0 Disagree0

Omeruo?

Forget Terry, Cahill or Iva and chuck a very inexperienced 19 year old into the team.

Agree0 Disagree0

Did u see the inexperienced 19yr old defender yesterday against the Cavani everyone wants to pay 50 mil pounds for?

Agree0 Disagree0

Lukaku would not be first choice if we don't bring in a world class striker? Who would we start then, Shurlle, Torres.

Agree0 Disagree0

So you're saying we should be playing Omeruo every week in the premier league over JT Iva and Cahill?

Agree0 Disagree0

21 Jun 2013 06:38:55
Just read on tv that Celtic are looking in excess of 10m for Wanyama. That's not too much for a player of his potential. IF we sell Mikel, I think Wanyama would be an excellent buy

Jackson

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Kondogbia is a better player m8 with a higher ceiling in my opinion.

Agree0 Disagree0

But Kondogbia is not worth a lot when attacking? At least that's what I read about him. Haven't seen either play so I wouldn't know who has the most upside

Jackson

Agree0 Disagree0

I would say from the clips I've seen of him he's a better CDM than Wanyama plus he is playing in La Liga not the SPL but oviously we wouldn't know what he offers unless we signed him.

Agree0 Disagree0

21 Jun 2013 01:15:28
I'm sure many would disagree but I've been watching the confederations cup and I'm not very impressed with Cavani. He doesn't look to me like a 50 mil pound player.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Ive been watching as well - and agree with you.

That said - Torres does (well almost), so I wouldn't judge Cavani by the Con Cup alone.

Agree0 Disagree0

Dont judge on international form. Look at the england squad, we have some very talented players who cannot produce club form for country. Cavani is one of the top 5 strikers in the world at the moment. Having said that I think we could get lewandowski and aubameyang for the price napoli are wanting.

NWBLUE

Agree0 Disagree0

Lads look at van persie when he plays for his country then look at him in premier league

Believable0 Unbelievable0

20 Jun 2013 23:49:09
Might as well play Mikel striker rather than buying Cavani! No, but on a serious not, is Cavani really worth £50+m. ?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

21 Jun 2013 00:07:01
I won't pay anything more than £25m for Cavani. We need a serious rethink. Let's stick with Lukaku. {Ed018's Note - your right, you won't have to pay a cent}

Agree0 Disagree0

Top class strikers are incredibly hard to come by. I think when you have a chance to get one you have to take it.

Tk

Agree0 Disagree0

People are saying he's sh*t based on his performances for Uruguay, and tbf he's not great when playing for the national team. But it's not like Napoli care when he's banging in 30 goals a season for him and I don't see why we should care either.
Some national teams just aren't great, and when you look at Uruguay there's maybe 3/4 great players. And if you want a comparison, everyone slates Lampard for his contributions and performances for England and yet he still manages to do well for us.

Agree0 Disagree0

Hazard's form for Belgium was really bad as well up until a couple of months ago. So yeah, don't judge players solely on performances for the national team
