I have no idea if this is true but I have just read that Modric has handed in a transfer request. Hope its true but to be honest, I doubt it.

Is this the only way this deal will go through? {Ed018's Note - Tottenham will have to accept the fact that keeping Modric will only hurt the team and we will have to pay the amount they believe is fair. Thats how i see it happening, but yes handing in a transfer request might help speed it up}

Modric hands in a transfer request hopeing a deal can be struck within the next 7 days then move on to another target really hope we push for aguero once more can you see this happening ED108 {Ed018's Note - in a logical world i'd expect Modric to hand in a transfer request when they get back from South Africa and Chelsea to have an offer of 32 million accepted. will it happen. who knows.}

Hi ED's
Do you think there is a particular reason why chelsea targets that always seem to be 'close' to signing, then either move to other clubs or extend their own cuerrnt contract. I know there have been bids on tables for various targets, in your opinion why do you thinks these are arnt happening as quick as we would like. How many signings do you anticipating Chelsea sign.
Thanks and top work on the site.. {Ed018's Note - i really cant answer that.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

A lot of players will use Chelsea as leverage in other negotiations to gain a better contracts

hi ed, any news you can share with us? im worrying at our lack of movement for a winger, can you tell me anything? {Ed018's Note - nothing i can share, i hope after the modric saga we make a strong effort for a winger /forward}

Hi ed do u have any idea who the possible replacements for essien might be saying seeing as were in desperate need to buy another player in that position? {Ed018's Note - replacements have been discussed here and in the media plenty, nothing else i can add}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

It doesn't look like the club think they need one {Ed018's Note - maybe they dont and i'm not sure they really do. i expect modric to sign, after that i think they need to bring in a wing/forward or two.}

Agree0 Disagree0

ed any truth in this new cahill interest from us
seems logical as alex is leaving and would free up a spot for a foreigner and add to the homegrown {Ed018's Note - there seems to be interest in cahill and it'd be good move}

Believable1 Unbelievable0

Edd i think alex is quality and much better than cahil. i think a move for him would be bizzare when we hava ivanavic and alex that can play cb {Ed018's Note - it looks as if alex will be sold, cahill will be a solid replacement, and he is still young}

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Jul 2011 18:29:01
Ed018, Did you get any update on the enquiry Chelsea made with Nasri's representatives, what was his situation? And also will we be making any kind of move for him? {Ed018's Note - i dont think Chelsea will be making a move for Nasri}

ed were meant to be wanting to look at younger players then why all these links to
de rossi - 27
parker - 30
lucho - 30
bastos - 27
not what i would call young

Believable1 Unbelievable2

Ive not seen anything saying were lnked with lucho, and we definitely won't be paying 30 mil for a 30 year old.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Jul 2011 14:44:43
ed do u think we want to sell bertrand or loan him out as he might be needed later on as ash gets older {Ed018's Note - i hope they loan him out this year before they decide on possibly selling}

ED, is scott parker on his way back to chelsea as there must be some truth to all the rumours that he is.Thanks {Ed018's Note - there's talk of a one year loan deal, which may not be a bad thing}

Believable0 Unbelievable1

13 Jul 2011 14:47:18
ed could we still sort out a deal with modric even though he and tottenham are out of the country {Ed018's Note - yes but doubtful

Believable2 Unbelievable1

13 Jul 2011 13:10:06
Am I the only person who feels the return of Scott Parker wouldn't be a bad thing? I know he left us before and couldn't get in the team but he has grown and developed as a player since then. He does shine out in a poor West Ham team and you could say the lack of quality around him makes him look better than he is, however his performances for England recently show he is a top midfielder. English, cheaper than other targets and another leader in the dressing room.

Angel Di Maria, if made available, should be targeted too; although of more concern to me is the right side of the pitch...Ed's, what right wingers (except Neymar and Sanchez) are out there and realistically available? {Ed018's Note - Turan, Mata. Aguero can play on the right}

Believable2 Unbelievable1

Jesus navas? Maybe available, or my personal favourite, the return of robben?

Agree0 Disagree0

Hi ed: Is it true that Gael Etock is to become a Chelsea player when he turns 18? {Ed018's Note - yes i believe so}

Hello ed, Are Chelsea going to put another bid in for Modric after the 27million bid?

How much do you think chelsea will go to? {Ed018's Note - i expect another bid at some point}

Believable2 Unbelievable1

We could of given ouselves a bit more of a chance of gettin him for a decent price for us if didn't weigh in with £5m more of an offer straight away. £2m would have been a sufficient initial increase, but now we've put ourselves on the back foot by showing our cards prementurly. {Ed018's Note - tottenham have a price that they are gonna wait for. then they will let him go. its that simple. a 2 million increase would do nothing.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Jose mourinho has admitted that the his club requires only one more striker and that he is not going to sell any of his current attackers. The club has already placed bids for Fernando Llorente, neymar and sergio aguero. Ed, do you think that this will be an opportunity for chelsea to get either Aguero or neymar? {Ed018's Note - yes there is a chance}

hi ed, what is the situation with rajkovic? do you know whether he will be in AVB plans this season? {Ed018's Note - he may get some first team time depending on how things go}

Real close on Adebayor So Ronaldo Higuan Benzeama Adebayor Aguero/Tevez Neymar at the bernabeu it cant happen

Believable6 Unbelievable2

How do you know Real wany Adebayor? I thought they were not interested? Jose said that RM only needed one more striker, if they are lookig at Adebayor as well as Tevez and Neymar.... that doesnt really add up.

Agree0 Disagree0

Mourinho said in a press conference earlier, they were close to completing the deal

Agree0 Disagree0

Lets explain that Mourinho only needs one more striker, so if Real Madrid gets Adebayor they wont sign Neymar, Aguero or tevez.

Agree0 Disagree0

any truth in eto coming to chelsea to enable tevez to go to inter?
i wouldnt want eto as i think hes past his best, but then again roman does like an over priced old player

Do we have any interest in Arturo Vidal? He is entering the final year of his contract and is availabe for £13M. Bayern Leverkusen has said that they only want to sell to a foreign club.

Believable3 Unbelievable0

For £13M he would be a perfect signing to fill the Essien void

Agree0 Disagree0

Please say we do. Vidal is a great player.

Agree0 Disagree0

Well, have we ever pulled a bargain for a great player when in need? Well, under this regime at least? Can't seem to remember. We would rather bid 50 for Pastore.

Agree0 Disagree0

Sign him up.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Jul 2011 00:34:33
we will not sign neymar or modrid. boas is looking at di maria as neymar is set to sign for madrid in january. pedro leon of madrid is also a target. chelsea will make one final bid for modric of a fee around £33.5 mil which if this fails they will turn to samir nasri

Tevez's advisor today didn't rule out the possibility of tevez joining us could this tempt us if we are interested to enquire Ed?thanks {Ed018's Note - i guess it could.}

Believable3 Unbelievable5

13 Jul 2011 00:13:27
DeRossi and Masch are probably the DM's in thhe world. Signing DeRossi for 20mil is bargain.

If spurs are demanding a large fee for modric why don't Chelsea move for Sneijder Ed?thanks {Ed018's Note - Sneijder wouldnt be any cheaper}

Believable3 Unbelievable3

Just much much better.

Agree0 Disagree0

Only twice the player. So why pay the crazy money for the midget?
