Ed, is there an interest arda turan? {Ed002's Note - No. Arda Turan looks Atletico Madrid bound. Talks have been going on for a while and he will move this summer. Dortmund apparently remain interested but Villarreal have dropped any interest that they had. Spurs have dipped their toe in the water over the player and I suspect Valencia are keeping a watchful eye on matters. I am surprised that Liverpool have not followed up the interest they previously had in the player.}

Ed, when does the transfer window actually opens? {Ed002's Note - Each FA decides the date that their transfer window opens. In England and Wales it is after the last game of the season - but that only applies for transfers between clubs who are members of the same FA. For International transfers I think the window will open on July 1.}

Ed what are your thoughts on the kaka rumours and has there been any activity this week for anyone ? {Ed002's Note - There is nothing new at all. As for Kaka there is nothing firm that I am aware of and I would have expected him to head back to Italy if and when he leaves Madrid.}

Ed, what are the chances we bring in a creative midfielder to replace Lampard? We have Ramires locked up for one midfield spot through the future. Also you've made mention that the club intends for Josh McEachran to replace Michael Essien presumably after McEachran takes a year long loan spell somewhere in the EPL. Does this all seem plausible Ed? {Ed002's Note - I have never said that JM will replace Essien but there has been an active search for more than a year for a replacement for Lampard.}

Heard from a Chelsea source that #Roman has learned a lesson from past incidents and wants to continue with #Carlo #Ancelotti.

Roman wants to make Ancelotti the Ferguson of #cfc and has learned what is needed to achieve success! #goodsquad #longtermmanager + #funds

Any truth abut these tweets ED? {Ed001's Note - nope.}

Ancelotti is staying. .

Confirmed to me this morning by a good source!

Zola will become his number 2 and Hiddink will return in a Director of Football type role. .

A gamble this might be but Hiddink will be able to take the reigns at any time should the season not work out. .

Expect an announcement on Land Aquired for new Stadium and also funds in the region of £100 Million being made available for transfers!

Done deals already are Kaka, Van De Weil and Lukaku.

Mourinho will be going to Man U at some stage in next four years or when Real contract finishes. .

Guaranteed Source!

Hi Ed, please which players do you think we are likely to buy during the transfer window?Thanks. {Ed002's Note - I am not going to put my neck on the block and guess at which transfers will actually happen. There are plenty of targets taht have been discussed such as Neymar, but actually buying them is very different.}

Hi ED seems city are at the front of the queue to get sanchez from reports that they had reps there yesterday. But how far, if at all are we behind them in landing him? Also are discussions still ongoing with neymar or has that stopped and what about any of his brazilian u21 mates? Thanks. {Ed002's Note - As far as Neymar goes it is up to the player. As you say, Manchester City and Barcelona are leading teh hunt for Alexis Sanchez at the moment.}
