Hi Ed (s),

Kakuta has been spotted in Arnhem at Vitesse with his agent. Is this for another loan or is Kakuta involved in the Van Ginkel deal and are Vitesse going to buy Kakuta?

Greetings from the Netherlands.

He's there to sort out another loan at the club - season long.

Now we've given up hope of cavani I seriously hope we don't go after that muppet Suarez. We've had enough bad press over the years.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Yeah I have to agree with you spready, he's a great player but he's just bad news!

I reckon If he offer enough wage Rooney would come to us, surely we would rather come to us than psg or arsenal? Blue is the colour

Eds / guys what type of midfielder is van ginkle, I mean is he a dm who sprays passes all game (ie) xabi alonso or a number 10 type ( mata) or box to box type? And if you had to say he played the same as who would it be? Obviously I've never seen him play but heard he had a good under 21s euro, cheers all

Believable0 Unbelievable0

He's predominantly a box to box midfielder. he can also play in the pivot; as he did alongside Strootman at the U21 Euros.

Agree0 Disagree0

Please can we stop with the whole 'pivot' thing?

Agree0 Disagree0

He is a less athletic, more technical version of ramires, with a hint of lampard. IMO

Agree0 Disagree0

Well, the 2 in a 4-2-3-1 is called a pivot. so not sure what you want to stop?

Agree0 Disagree0

Stop the pivot thing, it's not a real position, he's a midfield player probably more central!

Agree0 Disagree0

Steve the 2 in a 4231 is not called a pivot. There is no such position on a football field. Not in European football anyway. It is a term coined by Americans, and a truly shocking one at that. The 2 is traditionally a holding role and a box to box role.

Agree0 Disagree0

Ive never heard of pivot in my life until this site! it makes my blood boil!

DannyTrueBlue {Ed018's Note - I agree who ever started calling the two center midfield positions the "double pivot" is a fool}

Agree0 Disagree0

I also hate the term pivot! The 2 say deeper in midfield are defensive midfielders or general midfielders, just like you'd call Mata and Oscar attacking midfielders!

Agree0 Disagree0

What's wrong with just a midfielder? Things are much simplier than what yonks prefer to make out of things they don't understand.

What is going to happen with Essien? Will his close ties with Mourinho save him from being sold?

Ed. I am not an Chelsea fan. But I have a question.
Chelsea are in for rooney 27, 250k per week with almost 25-30 mill transfer fees.
also Cavani for 50 mill?. at 27?. If he fails, then RA would be screwed.
Y not lewondaski, would come in for half the wages, would bang in double what rooney scores and would get in for 20 mill at max and dortmunad would be happy to sell to a team other than Bayern.
the lad is pure genius, an execptional out and out CF would would bang in goals up and down.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Dortmund may be willing to sell (debatable) however you missed the part about the player having a say in the transfer. He wants to go to Bayern.

Agree0 Disagree0

05 Jul 2013 12:37:22
Yes, But there isn't much difference between Chelsea and Bayern If you look doemstic.
common Hazzard wanted to go everywherem until Chelsea bought him.
Lewondaski is miles ahead of rooney, He is the perfect no. 9 any top club would dream. at 100 k. he would be a revelation

Agree0 Disagree0

Cavani is 26

Good evening Eds!

Could you confirm if there is any interest in De Rossi? He has been connected to a Chelsea move for the last couple of weeks.

Appreciate it chaps!

Great news about v. Ginkel. Today there are reports about Hulk and DeRossi any opinion about it Ed?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

STOP ASKING QUESTIONS ABOUT EVERYTHING YOU READ IN THE PRESS! USE THE SEARCH ENGINE

Agree0 Disagree0

Why? To find 300posts connecting Hulk to Chelsea and about 120 connecting DeRossi. I have asked ed for opinion.

Agree0 Disagree0

Stop bugging the eds. We don't even have any because of people like you.

Agree0 Disagree0

The last poster is spot on. It's not a personal attack on you Ness, so don't take it as such, but it is due to repeatitive questions and questions about every player you read has a link to Chelsea (something you're good at) that we no longer have the editors voicing opinions. The abuse doesn't help either, but honestly mate you've asked like 10 questions in the last week and haven't got a murmur in reply from the eds. Take a hint mate

Top player, according to my Dutch colleagues. He's played for 4 seasons in the Vitesse first team and he's only 20!
