i would love to see one of the eds stick his neck on the line and say wot our chances of landing falcoa kevinCFC

Believable1 Unbelievable2

Kevin the Eds stick their neck on the line every day by giving us the indepth info they do. Almost every question gets answered with a list on interests teams. We are interested in Falcao, we have held talks with Athletico, a January move looks unlikely. That seems pretty straightforward mate.

No the eds palm u off with rude comebacks and never give u a straight answer! and they wonder why they get abuse! not that i give it to them but u can see why others do




kevinCFC {Ed018's Note - the situation regarding Falcao has been covered extensively on here. Melbourne just told you how the situation stands as of now which Ed002 has stated many times. obviously when this changes, i'm sure it will be addressed. no need for your childish comments.}

Agree0 Disagree0

You have been asking for that kevin .

Kevin people like you ruin this site!

No name posters ruin the site, not Kevin. At least he leaves himself open to critisism. His comment about abusing the eds was rather stupid though.

Apologies if already covered, but was or is Fellaini a target for the club?

Believable1 Unbelievable3

Evening standard

I'd be happy with this! :)

Fellaini is one of three players, along with forwards Radamel Falcao and Theo Walcott, who Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich is prepared to spend heavily on next month to ensure his club's campaign does not go into freefall.

Won't hold my breath but be nice

The more I think about it the more I want cavani over Falcao. Don't get me wrong I'd take both in an instant but there's a few things that sway my opinion. To start cavani is a legitimate aerial threat (not that Falcao isn't but cavani is at a different level). Secondly cavani has more pace than Falcao which will really make for a headache for the defenders as he can put muscle you and run in behind you. I think cavani will hold the ball up better than Falcao as well which gives the three amigos more room. I realize he won't be nearly as clinical as Falcao but I think he adds something that Falcao can't in terms of being the big man up top. I just remember the reason drogba was so good was that he could make a chance out of absolutely nothing and I think cavani can do this.

Any snippets of news to report ED002? {Ed002's Note - Nothing today. The club personnel are traveling today and I would not expect much top be happening. The only news out of the club is trivia about an injury and not noteworthy.}

Believable1 Unbelievable0

Ed002, will you let us know if anything of interest occurs?

Would be brilliant if you did, cheers!

PR! {Ed002's Note - Probably.}

Ed considering chelsea are looking for a striker and balotelli is looking to leave is there any interest ?? {Ed002's Note - No.}

Believable2 Unbelievable5

Balotelli is too inconsistent.

Agree0 Disagree0

17 Dec 2012 16:40:16
Controversial statement alert!

Chelsea should sign Balotelli

He is young and hungry for goals, when he fell down the pecking order at city he started becoming a waste. A move to Chelsea will allow him to profit off an under performing Torres and a soon departing Sturridge.

He also has the pace to run behind back lines, the skill to beat a man and the strength to hold off a defender.

Open your eyes Roman

Scottish fan here read today Chelsea face a race with Liverpool to sign Lyon striker Gomis. (Daily mail)
Also been hearing Balotelli wants a move to Chelsea after a fall out with Manchester city players and staff.

Believable2 Unbelievable7

Dont really rate him not good enough for Chelsea the only way we'll win silverware is if we sign any of Falcao/Cavani/Lewandowski and that's only if they stay fit all season

Press sources say Barca want Courtois, we would be mad to even consider any offer for him, especially from them. We need him at the club now, some needs to challenge Cech for the no1 shirt and I think he could do it. Scott M
