Hi ed
Are we still interested in signing any centre backs?
Thanks. {Ed018's Note - its possible they will still look to sign a center back}

Is it dependant on players being sold

Agree2 Disagree2

I hope we don't. I'd rather see kalas, omeruo, chalobah, ake, Christenson given a chance.

Ed what striker would you like at Chelsea with the ones who remain a possibility?

Do you think Mourinho could tempt Lewandowski instead of going to Bayern next year?

I would prefer to see Lukaku given a go than sign Rooney or Jovetic.

CfcBenWxm {Ed018's Note - I'm pretty sure Lewandowski wants to go to Bayern. I'm not sure he'd be willing to move to another club.}

I'd like Lukaku to be given a chance as well. He is strong, fast, skilful, and knows where the goal is and can only get better at his age! I think with him Torres and schurle we have a good strike force and unless a star came available to sign - I'd be happy with that strike force as I don't see the point in signing a bad egg like Suarez, someone like benteken who is very similar player to Lukaku or someone like Rooney who although is a great player and could provide us with something different - he would command a large fee and large wages and would take chances away from Torres and romelu and in any event he isn't a 25+goal a season striker. If we got him at the right price then great but not at the prices currently quoted of in excess of £30m!

Vandermatti

Agree3 Disagree1

No s***, we all want lukaku to succeed here. But we can't play with one striker all season.

Agree7 Disagree1

I totally agree with you and if the right option came up I'd want the club to snap it up just as much as every other fan but I don't want them signing someone for sake of signing someone which could come to the detriment to Lukaku. I totally agree another striker rather than another "forward" is needed.

Vandermatti

Agree1 Disagree2

We have Torres, Ba, Schurrie and Lukaku. We will only buy a striker if we offload Torres or Ba. Since all our top targets have gone elsewhere. I would keep Torres and get someone in for Ba.
Maybe Mo can get him scoring goals

Rumours picking up that rooney wants to go to Chelsea. Manchester United fan here.

Perhaps Jovetic is again a real target or maybe Damiao

Can second that. Apparently Chelsea have made their interest known and Rooney has told Man U he wants to go to Chelsea. This has been known for a number of days apparently and when PSG became aware of this they made the bid for Cavani. I'm torn about it. Under normal circumstances I don't think i'd want him but under Mourinho it could work out.

Believable4 Unbelievable5

Interesting. But you put 1+1 together it makes sense. PSG did not enter the Cavani chase until it was clear Rooney was leaving. Personally, I think Rooney can bring us the title!

Agree3 Disagree5

Hope the info is right I think a revitalised Rooney up front would be terrific and give us options.

Agree5 Disagree4

Ed, I know we shouldn't believe the press. However with them stating Jose wants to sign Hulk as a striker, this surely has to be BS? I know he played in this role for FCP on occasions, but we must be after a top draw striker as opposed to someone like him?

Thanks mate. Cfc Dan {Ed018's Note - there has been interest in Hulk}

Agree3 Disagree0

Or maybe PSG aren't going in for Rooney because Man U have made it clear he's not going to be sold.

I can't see Man U selling us Rooney anytime soon!

Agree4 Disagree1

It's funny how u all seem to think Rooney is quality now that you are linked with him.

Agree5 Disagree0

Was thinking the same thing myself :/

Agree4 Disagree0

I believe PSG switched their interest from Ronaldo to Cavani.

Agree0 Disagree1

They're are people that think rooney is quality before chelsea were interested! anyone who says rooney isn't class when he's playing he's best football is derranged! He scores, create's & isn't greedy on the ball. Basic football knowlege

Hi Eds, is chelsea having any intension of selling david luis to any top club in europe? {Ed018's Note - if the right offer comes in and he wishes to move then its possible}

Hi Eds. Are we genuinely in the running for Suarez or Benteke? Both have asked to leave so the papers are automatically putting them at Chelsea. But are we really interested? Or Yilmaz? {Ed018's Note - Benteke no, Suarez I highly doubt and Yilmaz they have shown interest in, in the past}

Believable2 Unbelievable1

10 Jul 2013 12:37:19
Ed018, Ed002 reckons chelsea have a clear striker target and it is not Benteke, any idea who it maybe? {Ed018's Note - no}

Agree2 Disagree0

Seems unrealistic to me but everything points to Rooney.

Who will be te next Chelsea striker to come in?

Yilmaz
Jovetic
Cavaini (still?)
Rooney
Suarez

Any of the above?

Believable2 Unbelievable4

Rooney or Suarez. I doubt Suarez will sign. Rooney will be right player for Chelsea. Fingers crossed that decide to move IMO.

Agree3 Disagree7

Yilmaz

Agree6 Disagree2

None.

Agree0 Disagree2

Jovetic or Lewandoski, however Jovetic is more likely due to Lewandoski desires, he has great techinical ability and can score goals, offers something different to Lukaku aswell, and is valued around £22-30mil (I think), Lewandowski however is valued more and is likely to be at Munich next season, but, ideally a better striker.

Ed018, will chelsea still try and sign a forward, even though most of our initial targets seem to have gone elsewhere? {Ed018's Note - yes}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Would that mean Torres or Ba leaving? {Ed018's Note - Ba will probably be leaving}

Oh dear, so torres will be staying : (

A mate of mine has confirmed to me that he saw Stefan Jovetic in London on Sunday around Green Park. It could well be a holiday for him, but it could also be transfer related. Regardless he was in London, and we should just keep a close eye on the situation. Maybe Arsenal related possibly.

I don't ever usually do these kind of rumours, but it's a true story.

Cheers Chaps!
