ED02 with Barca missing out on Thiago Silva will they again enquire for David Luiz i imagine he would cost £40 mil plus too much for Barca to play? {Ed002's Note - I don't know if they would.}

Roberto di Matteo:"we have a good team and our defence has been superb ,but we will look to improve on some positions."
I think this is a suggestion that we are going to invest in attacking and midfield areas rather then defence this transfer market?
Possibly we will look at players that have shined in the euro's and the olympics like:Alan Dzagoev,Gabriel Salassi,Lewandowski,Cabaye,Debuschy
Also think our main targets are :Hulk,Falcao(if Torres fires blanks again),Azpilcuetta
I think we should get:Debuchy,M'Villa,Hulk,Falcao and Dzagoev as he is available for a free.
The big question is what will RDM's transfer budget be personally i think he isn't going to have a big say in big money signings like Hulk. {Ed018's Note - he will have input, but there isnt just one person who says this is who we are signing and thats that. and don't worry about a so called transfer budget they will strengthen the squad as they see fit}
Who needs financial fair play?
You sound like a kid in a sweet shop!
We don't need m'Vila as mikel is good enough as he proved under RDM so he wont look to replace him, falcao won't come because Torres has been promied first team football because of that scranny he threw, dzagoev is only being mentioned because you've seen him score against Czech and Poland... Debuchy would be good and Hulk, would like to see Modric come too as he is fantastic

Hi Ed, is there any chance that RDM will look after Piszczek from B.Dortmund? I have just seen some rumours on polish web that they would like to get him together with Lewandowski...? {Ed002's Note - It is not out of the question I guess.}
Its a load of nonsense
Piszczek would be my ideal signing at right-back but he's valued very highly by Dortmund, and I doubt we'll go for him as we'd have to pay over the odds
13 Jun 2012 18:52:14
watching moutinho if we are linked with him i dont think its such a wise move he doesnt look amazing to be honest very loose passes
however he would make an excellent rugby player the way he threw himself at varela when he scored
curt {Ed002's Note - Rumours persist of Moutinho moving to Chelsea if they would pay the 30M euros required but realistically it is unlikely to happen.}
Be a waste of 30 mill euros in my opinion
curt
No i reckon he is well worth the 30 million
Sorry curt. I have to say this. Every time I read a post, you have a load of s**t to say about it. Can you ever read one without posting??
Think hard??
Think harder!
Mate, this is a supporters site. I dont want to have a pop. But for f..ksake. You are right putting me off from coming on here at all. Your acting like a big kid. Ya dope!
Nuff said.
Love the blues, luke
Luke whats ya problem? Everyone is allowed to their own opinion aren't they? Think about it?...Think harder! Are you for real? lol Tbh i agree think it would be a waste time and money! Chelsea have a strong enough side as it is and with the extra transfers that our coming in, he is not needed! He aint a goal scorer and he dosent provide many assists either! Since 2004/5 hes only scored 24 goals in his league do you really think 30million is goona be spent wisely?

Ed002, what's d differenc btw Italian players n players frm Italy (not as though I dnt know anyway). {Ed002's Note - I am astonished, but still. Del Piero is an Italian player. Cavani is a player from Italy. If there is someone near by could you have them feel your head to see if it has gone soft?}
Its like theres no end to them !!
This is a joke! how stupid are some people
ED.... U R a legend. This post just made my day...!!
I can not believe asked this lol great response though LOL BLUEBOY1
Maybe english isnt the guy's first language, i was a bit confused when i first read it too
13 Jun 2012 17:30:50
Hi ed they defiantly don't pay you enough to deal with some on the stupid questions asked i was wondering you said a while back that even if we get hulk and a right back there could still be some more players coming in . Will these be youth players or are we looking to strengthen other positions if so what positions .
Many thanks
Mickeydroyledge {Ed002's Note - Chelsea are interested in a striker plus perhaps a couple of squad players.}
Is that besides the accqusition of HULK or including him {Ed002's Note - In addition.}
13 Jun 2012 17:26:56
Official News: Chelsea have signed Roberto Di-Matteo as permanent manager on a 2 year contract.
Will this change any of our transfer targets, will RDM have more say in who comes or goes? {Ed002's Note - It changes nothing in terms of incoming transfers.}
13 Jun 2012 17:20:52
Will Di Matteo Get to sign the Players he wants?And not Romans choice of players he would buy. {Ed002's Note - He will have an input to the process. As do many others.}
13 Jun 2012 17:14:05
Di Matteo signs 2 Year Contract. Amazing News, what more could he have done for the Job? It has been fully deserved and lets hope he can lead us to more Glory for however long he holds the Job!!
Davies
Dont you expect him to last 2 years then ?
I think he means after the 2 years if hes still there
curt
What else could he have done? maybe beat at least ONE of our rivals in the league.
Check list:
Liverpool - no
Spurs - No
Man City - No
Arsenal - No
Newcastle - No
i dont think hes done well at all - just rode his luck playing ultra defensive in a cup competition.
To be honest I m quite dissapointed - I dont think hes up to the job long term.
Finally someone with some sense on here and not tunnel vision.well said mate....
Yes we didnt do great in the league, but we didnt put out our best team sometimes prior to the CL.
Liverpool- lost 4-1 but played some reserves before the Final. Beat the in FA Cup Final- Not Bad
Spurs- Battered them 5-1 and we drew 0-0 so no loss is good.
Man City- Good team, not Prem winners for nothing.
Arsenal- 0-0 Should get a result there tbh.
Newcastle- Should be winning.
Tbh though yes we defended but i think Bayern and Barca x2 tops the list on behalf of quality sides.
Think your forgetting we won the CL and FA Cup, the first man to do this with Chelsea... you shouldnt be dissapointted at all...
Davies
Arsenal 0-0? maybe...But what was the score the first time chelsea met them this year? Next season should be different for Chelsea, Dont think they have got what it takes to win but 2nd n 3rd is reachable!

Hello ED.... I shall state again I feel sorry for you in the amount of repeated posts you get and you consistently reply to them. Only question I have and thats if you shall answer it. What player would you like Chelsea to Sign and Why? {Ed002's Note - Azpilicueta as I think he is the best RB available.}
Have to agree ed. great crosser of the ball
Really? Who exactly are the RBs that are available? VDW? Periera? Kyle Walker?
Not too sure we will sign a rb could see Ivan in that role or even luiz.
13 Jun 2012 14:53:55
ED002 with it looking very Likely RDM will be given a year or two year deal do you know if Guardiola was again approached before Chelsea gave RDM a new deal ?
BLUEBLOOD {Ed002's Note - Chelsea enquired after Guardiola but he was not available.}
Are Man City interested in Hulk ED? {Ed002's Note - They are looking for a wide player and may well be after losing out on their first two targets. There is certain interest from Real Madrid.}
13 jun 2012 14:42:33
are chelsea intrested in any italian players? {Ed002's Note - Perhaps players from Italy but not Italian players.}
ED002 is there any interest in Sebastian giovinco? I know a couple of months ago his agent was playing up a deal, but it could simply be speculation {Ed002's Note - D’Amico talks a good story and interest in Giovinco from Chelsea and other clubs is being overplayed, but if he is made available by joint owners Juventus and Parma that may change. Wolfsburg, Inter and Roma have certainly shown some interest and Napoli have been impressed by his recent performances and he may be offered up as part of a deal for Cavani.}
13 Jun 2012 14:37:15
Ed002: What negotiations are actually happening between porto and chelsea regarding hulk? sure it shouldn't take so long to know how much they want and how much we will give, just wanted to know if we actually are negotiating or is it just paper talk? {Ed002's Note - I assume you don't read any of the other posts. I have explained before that there is a difference of opinion in his value. I have also explained that there is interest from other clubs - notable Real Madrid. You seem to have an idea of people sat in a small room scribbling numbers on a bit of paper and handing them back and forth.}
13 Jun 2012 14:26:31
Ed, just seen on twitter that man city have offered 55 million euros for hulk! what are chelsea doing if anything to get this deal done? seems as though chelsea are incompetant of getting a deal done quickly! latest please.. {Ed002's Note - I assume that you are not a Chelsea supporter. Marin and Hazard - an agreement has been reached over them. If you want to quote Twitter at me you have to caveat the messages with something like: "I saw this on Twitter and I am naive and stupid enough to believe it to be true so I am sharing it with you".}
I saw this on Twitter and I am naive and stupid enough to believe it to be true so I am sharing it with you, but apparently Hazard has chosen Chelsea. Probably not true as it was on Twitter, but.......... {Ed002's Note - So Twitter, like Wikipedia, Facebook and Mitt Romney, is sometimes correct.}
Ok, so a little flippant, but if it's sometimes correct, then twitter based questions are as good as any other rumours, right? {Ed002's Note - It is a waste of my time though.}
Mitt is mostly correct, Ed.
13 Jun 2012 13:55:51
Hi Ed, do you know whether Chelsea have any interset in signing Fellani? {Ed002's Note - I don't know of interest from Chelsea right now.}
Linked with him hope he stay at everton or if he goes hopefully real from everton fan he is a vital player he valued at 26 to 40 mil
13 Jun 2012 11:38:34
Has Thiago Silva signed for Psg ed02? reports say a fee is agreed? {Ed002's Note - He cannot sign until July 1 - why is this so hard to comprehend?}
But has a move for him been agreed ED? {Ed002's Note - THe clubs have an agreement over the fee.}
I think its because people dont read properly ed
is there a possibility for making seperate pages for players were strongly linked with
then another for other rumours of players we are not as strongly linked with
or would it be too much hassle to bother doing ?
curt {Ed002's Note - There are too many pages already for the small amount of traffic.}
Surely a player can sign a contract that would take effect as of the 1st of July? Isn't that what hazard has done and many a player before, cech, robben etc {Ed002's Note - No.}
Actually they (effectively) can and often do. It is a separate contract binding them to sign at a future date on pain of a financial penalty (usually huge) and is fully enforceable in law. Whether that's happened or not, I've no idea.
SD mhl {Ed002's Note - They are contracted to another club and cannot sign binding and enforcable agreements with other clubs.}
Almost agreed - but they can sign a contract to sign a contract which is not the same as signing a contract to join the club - one step removed.
SD mhl {Ed002's Note - Sorry - they are contracted to another club. They cannot sign a contract.}
Why would a club allow a player under contract at another club hold interviews about being delighted to sign for that club even though they haven't yet and have pictures holding that clubs shirt even though they have nothing to do with the club before the 1st of July? Aka Hazard, so for example Real Madrid can offer lille more money and offer hazard more money and he can still sign for them? {Ed002's Note - The transfer is agreed but cannot be processed until after July 1 when Hazard will sign, his contract transferred and payments completed. UNtil then there remains a small chance that something could screw it up - but it won't be a club offering more money that does it. Clubs are above that.}
Just shows ed that people don't know what the July and January transfer window is for.
13 Jun 2012 11:16:14
Understood thanks. My understanding of doing somthing/anything about it is meeting players reps, discussing potential transfer, wages, agent fees, players interest, etc. And then making business with club.
JG {Ed002's Note - The clubs are aware of interest from Chelsea.}
13 Jun 2012 02:28:11
Ed - do you think Chelsea could possibly sign Hulk, Hazard (already comfirmed) and Falcao/Cavani in the summer, or will Falcao/Cavani be out of contention if Hulk signs,
Also who do you prefer, Falcao Or Cavani ? {Ed002's Note - There are no dependencies with these players and Hulk.}
12 Jun 2012 22:47:02
Are chelsea set to make a bid for jovetic ED? {Ed002's Note - There is interest at the right price.}
12 Jun 2012 22:20:47
Is Avram Grant an advisor for Roman Abrahmovic ED?
Pretty sure there really good friends.
12 Jun 2012 22:20:16
ED02 do you know why Chelsea have never made a attempt to sign Dzagoev he is a chelsea fan and also a great player who we have scouted? {Ed002's Note - Being a fan is irrelevant. Chelsea are well aware of his talents but the club cannot buy every player.}
