Hulk has now said that 'Now could be his time to move to the BPL'. Do you think there could be a possibility that Chelsea will be able to get him, or do you think Manchester City will end up with his signature? Thanks for all of the hard work Ed's! {Ed002's Note - There is a gap in the figures as has been explained many times.}

Hello ed, Once again you've been amazing for us Chelsea fans during this transfer window,

2 seperate reports are now saying we have offered £30 million and Raul Meireles and they are tempted.
Is this true ed? and if so, do you think they will accept.

thanks again ed {Ed002's Note - Options have been considered, one of which includes Napoli's target RM in the deal.}

I am guessing the reliable source you have gone through is a 'football agent' on twiter, because this is the rumour that is circulating on these pages.

Even though Brazil lost,Oscar was the stand out player in the team and in the tournament.He is just the player we need ,a player with the ability to make the right passes and vision.I do not think being a bit light matters that much ,just look at Mata.The prime ability of these players lies in their ability to find space and in their vision not in their strength.For heavy tackling and ball winning purposes we have a defensive midfielder.Also players can press hard as a team and win balls like Barca.By the looks of it Oscar is looking like great buy and will have a big impact on the way we play.

I think he is a fantastic player, brilliant to watch, it really is a shame that his last touch of the tournament will be remembered more than his stand out performances in the other games. But hopefully he will come to Chelsea and show the world what a sensational player he is, i cannot wait to see him in blue!

Agree0 Disagree1

I agree, although we may not see him for a few weeks!

Agree0 Disagree0

You must have seen a different game. oscar produced a poor performance and it was cler to see that he will be a total waste of money. he is physically by far not strong enough to make a stand at the premier league.
congrats to manu that they didnt get lucas. he is also way overrated on not worth even half the money that´s been paid for him.

Agree0 Disagree2

Omg you obviously a tottenham fan or something because Oscar done all that he could. I personally think that there were only 5 players that played good in the brazil game and that was hulk, Oscar, marcelo, t.silva and somebody else but can't remember who. Most people think that being lightweight means they wont suit the BPL but Oscar always puts him self between the player and the ball so he will either get past the opposition or get fouled.

Agree1 Disagree0

I thought hulk was the outstanding player tbh, even though he didnt start

Agree0 Disagree0

So he's a waste of money because he had one poor game? Even though he's been player of the tournament for Brazil. You my friend, have shown your crap knowledge of football! Muppet! I've seen him play live, and he isn't a waste of money at all! Is David Silva weak? Because Oscar is bigger than Silva, and last time I looked, Silva didn't come across as a weakling!

Blue Con what game was you watching mate? Thiago Silva was shocking, as was Marcelo! Marcelo isn't worthy of lacing Ash's boots! After today's performance I'd ask for my money back if I were PSG!

Chelsea Nick

Agree0 Disagree0

He didn't have a terrible game or a brilliant one but compared to the other brazil players Rafael romulo Sandro damielo and neymar he looked world class. I don't see how you could say marcelo was bad he was really good attacking wise but got caught out of position a few times but that's only because brazil were losing and he was trying to help out the attack.

Blue con

Agree0 Disagree0

If oscar has done all he could in yesterdays final it´s proven that he can not do much. missing out on the very good last minute chance was symbolizing his lack of top class qualitiy - we are talking here about a usd 50 million player!
future will show but i say today that besides maybe neymar and hulk no brasilian player is worth the money that´s been constantly asked for. not even close. they are way overratet. way overprized and finally way overpaid.

News now has confirmation that bid (35mil.) for Cavani has been accepted by Napoli. Now Chelsea is negotiating with Cavani about his salary(150k per week).

Believable5 Unbelievable8

Great news if its true, seems to me though that he would just be coming for money after all the comments he's made to the Napoli fans about winning trophies and looking forward to next season with them

Agree0 Disagree0

What media outlet has confirmed this?

News now

Hey ED,

The Standard have just said that apparently Chelsea have agreed a £35m fee for Cavani with Napoli. However, Cavani's wage demands of £150pw are the only stumbling block.

Any truth in this? Thanks ED.

Samir {Ed002's Note - As we stand right now, nothing is finalised - and until such time as a contract is signed that remains the same.}

Believable2 Unbelievable7

It's all a bit blurry still regarding Cavani. seems napili are willing to sell but Cavani all this time has said he doesn't want to leave Naples. Maybe its a media tactic incase he doesnt get his move

Agree0 Disagree0

Seems unlikely a deal has been agreed just yet since he's playing for Napoli right now (Sat afternoon)

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Aug 2012 11:32:51
So I assume that our primary target as a striker is now Cavani and not Schurrle? {Ed002's Note - It remains Cavani as it has done all along.}

Ed, Cavani fee agreed with Raul in the deal ? {Ed002's Note - Nothing is finalised yet.}

Believable1 Unbelievable1

No but the fee is agreed between the clubs right ? {Ed002's Note - As I said, nothing is finalised yet.}

I've also seen this!

hey Ed which of the new signings will be available to play in the Community shield game on Sunday? {Ed002's Note - In theory everyone in the squad is available except Oscar and Marin.}

Believable2 Unbelievable1

Ok cheers

Agree0 Disagree0

Hi ed, do you not anticipate Marin playing tomorrow,? What is the actual injury.
Thanks
DJ BLUE {Ed002's Note - Marin is not available as he has a minor knock.}

Hi edd, now that lukaku is out on loan im concerned that we are light up front, are we going to do anything about this.
Thanks Matt. {Ed002's Note - Chelsea has been trying all summer to buy strikers.}

Ed are we interested in Balotelli? {Ed002's Note - No.}

Believable3 Unbelievable4

Balo who?

11 Aug 2012 04:29:23
Ins:

Cesar Apzilicueta - 8 mil

Victor Moses - 10 mil

Edinson Cavani - 35 mil

Outs:

Florent Malouda - 2 mil

Yossi Benayoun - 2 mil

Raul Meireles - 8 mil

Loans:

Romelu Lukaku (Confirmed)

Lucas Piazon

Josh McEachran

Believable17 Unbelievable4

Out- turnbell in- butland

Agree0 Disagree0

We hav a young gk in courtois...believe me, he is gonna be massive....already better than de gea and on par with ter stegen

taby

Agree0 Disagree0

If we get those three in, it has been a stunning summer of business for Chelsea. I am a Moses fan, and see him as a very useful squad member. Trust the management and board, all those knocking him - the kid has more to him than Kalou.

Agree0 Disagree0

Can't see Piazon being loaned out, think he will be slowly introduced to our 1st team this season

Agree0 Disagree0

I think Meireles will stay, unless Napoli will only do a deal with Cavani if he's involved. I think if we let Meireles go AND McEachran go on loan, the centre of our midfield would be very thin (just Lamps, Mikel, Essien and Romeu - I'm not counting Ramires cause I'm certain he's gonna be almost exclusively used out on the right)

Agree0 Disagree0

We may, i would have thought, would sign a deeper midfielder if Meireles leaves - I would assume anyway, I wouldnt mind seeing attempts to sign Sahin, He has potential Imo


JMJW

Agree0 Disagree0

I really don't want Lucas Piazon to be loaned out...he should stay with the team and should be given a fair chance so that he can grow with the team...because i believe in year or 2 we need him in the midfield...!! Chelsea for Life

Agree0 Disagree0

Piazon is not going on loan what rubbish. He is part of the 25man 1st team squad for the PL {Ed002's Note - He does not need to be part of teh 25 man squad.}

Agree0 Disagree0

ed02 any truth we may be looking at Stephen Lichtensteiner {Ed002's Note - Apzilicueta remains the priority right now.}

ed002 am i right liverpool made a bid for sturridge yesterday! do u think it be accepted if so we will be lacking big time up front


kevinCFC {Ed002's Note - Not that I am aware.}

Believable1 Unbelievable7

U said on the Liverpool page that Liverpool have contacted Chelsea bout sturridge!


KevinCFC {Ed002's Note - The words seem clear to me: "Liverpool has made no approach to Chelsea about Sturridge".}

Agree0 Disagree0

I am a liv fan ,i hhope liv havent bid for him hes very greedy and we dont need him id rather have big andy than sturridge as back up
