Alright ed, do you see possibly any more Chelsea activity in this window after the salah deal for example Zouma or Shaw?

Believable7 Unbelievable3

{Ed002's Note - Done to death.}

Ed002 did Mata in the end ask to leave? Or did the club decide to sell him was best option? Also is it likely we will sign anymore players this window after signing Matic and Salah?

Believable0 Unbelievable2

{Ed002's Note - His father asked - I don't know if he did. I cannot answer "likely" questions - as I have said, if the right player is available at the right price, then sure.}

Ed do Chelsea feel they have enough cover in the attacking positions with Hazard Schurrle Oscar Willian and Salah? Would a player like Draxler be of interest if he were avilable?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - There have been offers and enquiries for Draxler. Both Milan clubs, Manchester City, Real Madrid, Arsenal and Chelsea have enquired at one level or another about Draxler - each has met a "not for sale" barrier. I don't really expect a move this coming January but suspect a move to Arsenal in the summer.}

Hey ed is it true Chelsea have blocked a 7m move for Ba to Trabzonspor? Cheers

Believable1 Unbelievable3

{Ed002's Note - Yes.}

Thats annoying, hoping we would sell him and bring in Diego Costa

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - If it would be possible they would.}

Hello Ed. Is there a chance of Griezmann coming in before the end of the January transfer window? Cheers

Believable0 Unbelievable3

{Ed002's Note - I cannot answer questions about timing.}

I hope not, no point in buying Salah then. We have Pizaon 1st team ready next year, dot want 7 fighting for 3 positions again.

Still hoping for Barkley in this window or the summer.

Hey ed, are chelsea interested in Antoine Griezmann?

Believable1 Unbelievable2

{Ed002's Note - I would not hold your breath over AG.}

Where does interest stand with:

1) Wayne Rooney
2) Ross Barkley

Any response would be much appreciated ed002?

Believable3 Unbelievable2

{Ed002's Note - Neither are for sale right now. Rooney may well move somewhere in the summer. There is interest in RB but he would be best advised to stay a little longer at Everton.}

Early reports suggesting that balotelli is in the early stages over talks for a possible move to Stamford bridge

Believable5 Unbelievable12

With the way this window is turning out I'll start believing everything.
Question for one of the Eds if you've got the time. Do any teams hold an interest in Victor Moses, perhaps looking to buy him during the summer? Can't imagine he's got a real future at the Bridge if we buy Salah instead of bringing him back.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed018's Note - don't know of any teams just yet but I was told he will more than likely move on come summer. My opinion is he is nowhere good enough for Chelsea}

Maybe Martinez would like a reunion at Everton. We could offer him for a good price to soften 'em up and then blow them away with a good bid for Barkley!
Haha just kidding of course :)
Cheers Ed018

Mourinho and Balotelli almost had a fight at Inter, it's NEVER going to happen (thank goodness)

chelsea website confirms they have agreed a transfer for Salah.

Michael Essien's agent in talks with AC Milan, apparently for a loan deal.

Believable5 Unbelievable2

In all fairness it might aswell be permanent. He's not the same player and won't get much of a chance especially with Matic back.

Agree0 Disagree0

I think it'll be a permanent move if he does go.

Eurosport are claiming we have signed Salah, seems a bit pointless to me if true. We need a striker FFs not another bench warmer.

Believable6 Unbelievable2

Why term a squad player as a bench warmer? It's a squad game, not just down to the eleven on the pitch. For me he looks to be a decent signing. pace, workrate and a decent decision maker. He'll be ideal for playing fast counter-attacking football, not sure about his ability to press but I'm sure he'll pick up Mourinho's tactics quickly. Without him signing we were effectively down to 4 players for 3 positions. Yes, we need a striker, we also need (IMO) a LB, CB and a CM. they'll come in time but I just can't see a high calibre striker being available in the January transfer window.

Agree0 Disagree0

You've clearly never watched this guy have you Spready

Apparently Wayne Rooney has been pictured on his way to Cobham Training ground? could this be part of the Mata deal?

Believable7 Unbelievable19

Where do you even read these things?
