Ed02: Are you in Leipzig for Ballack XI vs World XI? And do you expect any developements in Schurrle and De Bruyne situations there?

JG {Ed002's Note - I am at an airport hotel and travelling to the game in the tomorrow. I have no idea if there will be any change in the situation or not.}

Have fun, bar tap is on me.

Schurrle's transfer is becoming impossible due to KDB. deBruyne want to come back and get a chance at Chelsea or to move to Dortmund. That means Chelsea will have to sign 2 (two) high quality CM's (like Marchisio, Fabregas, Matic, Sneider, Hamsik, Vidal) of course only 2 of those. Obviously Džeko will sign not Cavani since RA doesn't want to spend 55mil for him. Luke Shaw will sign and stay on loan at Soton (untill july 2014). Act. deBruyne was suppose to replace Lampard after World Cup when retires. This way he is changing club plans and he'll probably play at winger instead of CM position. Luiz will go only if Chelsea can get Varane or Mangala. If Mikel really goes to Madrid Fellaini will be his replacement. Very important is that Chelsea will have to sign British RB. As well as 2 domestic GK's which will be hard to find. Mourinho will play 4-1-2-1 instead of 4-2-1-2-1 formation.
What do You think about this ed002? {Ed002's Note - The only thing I wish to comment on is De Bruyne. There were two issues, and one has been resolved. (1) Leverkusen wanted to take De Bruyne for two years on loan - and Chelsea would not agree to that. They have settled on one. (2) De Bruyne has to agree to a year in Leverkusen - that has yet to be resolved.}

Mourinho will play 4-1-2-1.
where would the other players play? at the bench?

A doubt he will b playin a 4-1-2-1 cause thts only 8 outfield players

Don't get me wrong schurrle is actually a good player. Brilliant link up sometimes a bit greedy (my issue with him) but why spend 20million on a player when we already have de bruyne, who I actually rate a better player. We're gunna end up pushing Kevin away from Chelsea which to me seems ludicrous. You don't find many players who can play midfield, wing, or playmaker and also as strong in his weak foot as his strong foot. Waste of 20 million to me. This is my opinion and probably a lot of other Chelsea fans. BLUEBOY1

I think he means 4121212. JM, if u are reading this, please make sure KDB stay and be given chance, and schurrle will not do any better than KDB.

Haha you mean 4-1-2-1-2

The whole De Bruyne thing is getting a bit out of hand. He wants a regular place in the team as it's a world cup year, which I believe was the initial reason for the loan. He now prefers the idea of going to BVB, but they seemingly only want to buy while Chelsea are reluctant to sell. We're not pushing him away. At the moment he's not guaranteed a starting position and most likely will largely be used as either a sub or rotation option. Both of which may prove detrimental to his world cup hopes.

Not pushing him away but feeling quite unwanted, we need to be carefull. Stuff like this when a player sees the grass can be greener will move on easily! BLUEBOY1

Is it true chelsea are interested in acquiring Dzeko? Thanks Ed

Jackson {Ed018's Note - no idea}

Come on guys. 4-1-2-1-2! One of you wants 8 outfield players, the other wants 13!

Luke Shaw will sign and stay on loan at Saints?

IF Shaw was interested in moving (NOT) the only way that would make sense to Saints is for Chelsea to pay a fee that would represent his potential value for 2014/2015. Think you would find they would place a value for that considerably above £30m, and no club would take that gamble.

Not too many more weeks until he is 18 and he puts an end to this nonsense, as he has said he will do.

Don't get me wrong, I quite understand your desire to get him and having seen Cole against Brazil I'm not convinced he will cope with good CL sides next season, but do you really think an 18 year old would be put into your side next season to cover him? Well no, because he would be on loan to Saints!

Think you will find a big reduction in players you acquire and put out on loan-and by the way, have you checked how many loan players we have at Saints (we don't do loans!)

how many times do you need to be told, Saints are no longer a club that needs to sell its best players so Shaw, Clyne and Schenerdlin are not going anywhere

But we could hazard a guess who could be going to Saints!

Shaw will sign for Chelsea, he is Chelsea fan and he want's to move to bigger club.

The Chelsea Shaw posts always revert to fantasy because there is no reason for Shaw to move to Chelsea-so now he wants to move to a bigger club!
The "mine's bigger than yours" is an argument I vaguely remember from my schooldays-good to see it still continues. However, you have tried to magnify the effect by adding a little untruth (that's normal too) that Shaw "want's to move".

No he does not, and he said so during the last transfer window and the situation is still the same. But hold onto your dream, like other things it may get bigger one day!

Just because a club doesn't 'need' to sell doesn't mean that they won't.

IB.

But it does IB if they then say they won't!

So, how many minutes did any English player under 21 get in the EPL for Chelsea during last season?

Find the answer and that will give you the % chance of what you want this summer, and a big reason for it!

Saint Martin

Clubs and players always come out and say 'we're never ever ever selling them' 'I couldn't dream about leaving' and then 24 hours later they've signed for a new club.

Dream on! Not much longer before you get put out of your misery.

Drogba back?- Really strong youth policy! Back to the Future, Part 3. LOL

Saint Martin

Saints fans why are you so frustrated if you are so confident that Luke Shaw won't sign for Chelsea?

Saints fans are not frustrated, maybe amused about the Chelsea fixation on Luke Shaw. Remember, you are not alone in seeing what a good prospect he is. Our club have had wealthier, and more successful clubs than Chelsea fishing for him but it is only the Chelsea supporters who think they can not be resisted. And all this based upon him being asked which club he supported as a kid!
Chelsea is exactly what Luke does NOT need at this point in his career. He is not daft. Will he move to Chelsea later in his career? Who knows. Will Hazard move to Saints later in his career? Who knows.
No, we are not frustrated. The club and supporters have seen this stalking building up for a while for a number of our young players but we know they are happy at the club and whilst that continues, they will go nowhere.

Can't really see why you should worry about Saints supporters contradicting you. If we made silly statements about who we would sign from Chelsea we would expect the same!

Greetings Ed, help me with the ff questions.

1. How are u?
2. Considering Monaco are spending one hell of a money this season, I want to know, thus the FIFA rules have a maximum amount of money each club should spend per season?
3. Essien, De bruyne, Lukaku are these guys back from their loan spell yet? - If not than when are they coming back because I thought they will return as soon as the season ends.
4. Which clubs are interested in Hernanes of Lazio.

Blueprint {Ed002's Note - (1) I am fine, perhaps a little hungry. (2) There are Financial Fair Play Rules that are coming on board - try searching FFPR in the box at the top of the page. (3) It is the close season - players have internationals to play then vacation. (4) Shakhtar, Milan, Manchester City.}

Just reed the FFPR I understand somehow, Oh and please do yourself a good deal and go get something to eat, hungry can be as bad as meeting satan in hell.
thanks, Blueprint

If your hungary ed i'm going to kfc want anything ha {Ed002's Note - Nothing jet sprayed off the carcass of a dead chicken thanks.}

It maybe jetsprayed off the carcus of a chicken but its lovely :-)

ed002, now that CHELSEA have turned their attentions to Mangala do you think a deal can be struck or will Porto prove to be their usual difficult selves? {Ed002's Note - Eliaquim Mangala has been watched by Manchester United, Spurs, Milan and PSG but an unreasonable €50M termination clause has put off any chance of transfer. Although both Monaco and Chelsea have approached Porto about a deal it would need a negotiated price to stand any chance of completion.}

Why do Monaco love Porto players past and present so much?
