If chelsea get an offer for oscar something like 25m to 30m snap their bloody hand off not good enough

This seems harsh. He is still only 22 and had an amazing start to the season last year. Add to that he hasn't really had a summer break for three years now, he's probably just in need of a recovery period. He has the potential to be world class.

Harsh, I think he is really good and would only get better.
I do feel we can sign Pogba and still have him in the team. He is still young and could be really vital don't think you can win anything with 11 players, he looks the player than can win a hatful of games for us. Two of Oscar/Pogba/Fabregas in a midfield three with Matic would be wonderful. With enough games to play they will all get more than enough game time and also Van ginkel and maybe Tiago for cover would set us up really well. 35-40mil perhaps? Then wouldn't mind if he left. But to say he isn't good enough is way harsh.

Don't be stupid, judging a player who under scolari has been played wide and deep in a team that's been terrible.

Here we go I knew someone would come out with u can't judge him for brazil! Who said I was! He not good enough its simple as that! Poor season last year very weak got no pace! He hasn't come on since we brought him in fact he gone backwards he not got any better when he should do! Only thing he good at is sticking his foot in and nicking the ball just like ramires but who wants that from your no 10. Oscar and fabregas in the same team asking for trouble its got to be one or the other and that cesc. His link up to the forward is one of the best

You're entitled to your opinion but I disagree, he wasn't terrible last year. Managed more goals than any of our strikers, 11 in total I think and had quite a few assists on top of that. Considering that the 2nd half of the season he was injured quite often, that's not a bad return. Particularly for a 22 year old, Hazard at the same age only had 13 goals so not a massive difference.

Hello Ed if your not to busy and have forgiven us for some of our fellow moronic posters would you be able to shed any light on the following please.

1. Lukaku is he still set to go or has the player liaison manage to smooth things over?

2. On the striker front you've said numerous times we plan to bring in anther striker are the targets still the same has you have mentioned before or are there any updates on that front?

3.Would you be able to tell us if luis the LB at Athletico is now first choice?

4.Are we actively in talks with Juventus for the sale of Pogba?

5.Has the club now passed up on the chance to sign Markovic a year early?

6. are there any relevant updates that are worth mentioning that haven't been covered.

Thank you for taking time as always to answer, I can only apologize as to the few who every year seem to make it there mission to come on hear and abuse you for given them free information but the majority of us are grateful.

Hello Eds,

After last nights masterclass, I was wondering if there is any chance at all the Chelsea board may try and hijack Toni Kroos' move to Real Madrid?

Or is he going to end up there regardless?

Thanks for the good work
