Use our rumours form to send us chelsea transfer rumours.

Hey Ed What are these rumors about chelsea preparing a bid for inter defender lucio Why would we want to spend our money on this player Are these rumors true?? {Ed002's Note - I really have no idea, sorry.}

Believable0 Unbelievable6

I highly doubt this is true, he does not fill the profile of bringing in young european talent for the future. I believe Lucio has 1 year to run on his contract so probably just paper talk/agent rumours in order to get a new contract @ inter. I certainly wouldnt have him in the side ahead of fellow brazilians Luiz or Alex

Hi Eds.... Great site - great info.
Could I make a request, for all our sakes?
Perhaps your webmaster could create a header at the top of the page - where FAQ / Latest info from the Eds, could be shown... -or something like that.

Thus eliminating (or at least reducing) the amount of double, time-wasting, annoying and some times just plain silly posts

Sometimes I think, people ask questions for the sake of asking rather than for answer ... {Ed002's Note - Never - we are working on an educational system that makes folks work.}

I would be very surprised to see A.Cole leave. Also, Aguero will need to reduce his wage demands in order for us to tie him down.

Like the 2nd lineup better, but would still rather see Ramires instead of Lampard.

why is it that chelsea only seem to be interested in south america players, we all know that they are ok until the english winter hits, and then they all seem to go into hiding as they dont like the cold weather ?

check out Souleymane Coulibaly the next african superstar on utube 8 goals in 3 games at u17 world cup only 16 years old defo new drogba leave lukalu and with are links with african players spend the lukalu money on this boy after you see his types of goals esp the one against brazil over head kick he has to become a chelsea player

Believable0 Unbelievable7

Try not to judge a player by watching clips on youtube, all it is is highlights, try watching a few games at least, this guy is a talent thats for sure, but it could just be form or the pride of playing for his country. dont forget the guy is 16 and playing in serie b.

Agree6 Disagree0

I watched the games live on euro sport ivory coast v australia denmark brazil france as of course watching england but i wanted to see paizon wallace for brazil and i was only saying if you missed the games check the goals out on utube

Forgive my limited knowledge but what does part-ownership of a player mean? Is it like how teams can loan out players? {Ed002's Note - No - one team will own say 50% of a players contract, another 30% and a third party say 20%.}

Believable7 Unbelievable0

So which team does he play for? And if it is the team with the highest percentage, what is the point of the other teams?

Cech

Luiz Alex Terry Cole

Essien

Pastore Lampard/Ramires

Sanchez Torres Neymar

I would like to see Luiz play at RB, as he is more of an attack minded player, and playing him at CB leaves us vulnerable to a counter attack. I am also an admirer of Alex, who is rock solid at the back. Ramires did well last season, and after a year of adapting to the English game, he looks like a real talent; give him more game time and he will continue to improve. If Chelsea fail with their bids for Sanchez, i would like the return of Robben, who is pacey and skillful.To the left side of Torres i would like to see Neymar. In my opinion, he is really over-priced, considering he's only 19, but in a few years time I'm sure he'll be worth every penny. If Neymar opts for Real Madrid, or to stay out at Santos, i think Hazard is more than capable of playing in that position. Sturridge could also play in this position.

Believable10 Unbelievable0

That team would cost about another 200mil pounds

Agree0 Disagree6

Are you high? The guy wasn't talking about buying ALL of those players. He was talking about getting Pastore plus a pair of players to flank Torres:

- Sanchez and Neymar (his ideal pairing)

- Robben and Neymar (if we couldn't get Sanchez)

- or either Sanchez or Robben with Hazard (if we couldn't get Neymar)


No way would any of those combination's cost us £200M Maybe £125M if it's Pastore, Neymar, and Sanchez, less if it's Robben.

Not bad, but would like to see Ramires starting over Lamps. Hopefully we get rid of Kalou and make Lamps and Drogba the real super subs

Never thought that the King of Sitters Kalou deserved the title "super" anyway...

what brief are u watching a transfer or an attempt for a player if yes who {Ed002's Note - Sorry?}

Believable5 Unbelievable0

Ed002 - on the Rumours page you mentioned something about reading a brief. He was wondering if it was about a transfer and if so, who. {Ed002's Note - I am still confused. Sorry.}

Agree2 Disagree0

Nevermind - you didn't say that you were watching a brief, you said just a watching brief:

"30 Jun 2011 10:52:50
Have Chelsea put in a new bid for Aguero?
If yes, how much? {Ed002's Note - No - just a watching brief at the moment.}"

{Ed002's Note - Now it is clear, so what is the question?}

Agree2 Disagree0

No question - I'm not the original poster. You appeared confused at his question so as a 3rd party I tried to help out by revisiting something that you had said yesterday on the rumours page. I misread your original statement as well.

If I could make a guess, the OP misread your rumours post as I originally did and thought that you were in the middle of reading a brief about a player/players and just wondered who you were reading about. {Ed002's Note - So you also read "just a watching brief" as "just watching a brief". Ok.}

Agree2 Disagree0

"So you also read "just a watching brief" as "just watching a brief"."

Yep.

All you guys out there who keep asking questions about Pastore, Neymar, Sanchez, Falcao well STOP. I have read this page very day for the last 2 months and i see that ED'S are getting frustrated responding to the same questions, about these players.

NONE OF THESE DEALS WILL BE COMPLETED BEFORE THE COPA AMERICA SO WILL HAVE TO WAIT BEFORE SEEING AND MOVEMENT REGARDING THESE PLAYERS. THE ED'S MIGHT KEEP YOU UP TO DATE ON THE BIDS MADE BY THE CLUB BUT THERE IS NO POINT ASKING THEM WHEN THE DEAL WILL BE COMPLETED BECAUSE IT'S LIKE MEASURING A PIECE OF STRING. ATM FALCAO IS THE CLOSET PLAYER TO JOINING CHELSEA.

GREAT WEBSITE GUYS, KEEP THE GOOD WORK UP

Oh chill out you drama queen...

If the Editors wanted to, they would just ignore those types of posts and not post them. Is it really that hard to ignore something that you don't like? I'm really surprised that with your ultra sensitive personality that you survived 2 months of reading the posts on this site.

new strike force with alot of flair
attacking full backs where luiz will be better as he doesnt need to worry so much about the defensive aspect
ramires starting to show his talent at end of season and will improve the more he plays and essien and lampard as long as they are fit.

Believable0 Unbelievable10

Sorry, no. Same midfield as last season isn't going to cut it for me. Not a play maker among them. I think that we can all agree that a major issue was no striker support. Falcao and Torres need someone setting them up. Torres had it at Poo' and Falcao had Hulk. Neymar can't do it all alone.

Agree9 Disagree0

Ivanovic Alex Terry Cole
Luiz
Ramires Pastore
Falcao Torres Sturridge

AVB will try to employ Luiz as holding midfielder due to his creativity on the ball.

Agree1 Disagree8

I've seen the Falcao/Sturridge/Torres lineup quite a few times at this site. Falcao and Torres kind of play the same position imho - in the center. Going to be tough to have either of them play on the right. I'm not sure where Bolton played Sturridge, but he sure didn't have much luck playing on the right of Drogba or Anelka for us early on last season.

I'm thinking that all 3 of your forwards would just as soon be the single striker up front. Whoever we have in that position would be better suited having the likes of Sanchez, Hazzard, or Neymar on the wings, maybe even blackmail Robben back.

Agree8 Disagree0

You can play Falcao&Torres or Torres&Sturridge or Falcao&Sturridge but not all 3 of them at the same time.
