Not so sure if I'd be happy with fellani, good player and not mega money and is gd for Orem just not convinced, also agree with ed, shurrle is a too too young player and think he should be our second striker, hopefully hulk comes in, if not another winger
07 Jun 2012 20:08:21
Just been talking to a bloke I know who has a few bars in the Algarve. He also is a bit of a middle man for football deals. He reckons Hulk to madrid is hotting up.
Not my info, just passing it on.
Luke
A "bloke" you know ....... how well do you know him because it looks like hes talkin rubbish mate
curt {Ed002's Note - There is certainly interest from Real Madris. Why are you so obnoxious?}
Keep your noise down Curt. You melt!
ed hulk might be interesting madrid but people dont need to claim they no a "middle" man to transfer deals when they clearly dont and if they did the middle man would keep quiet
curt {Ed002's Note - How do you know that he did not meet someone in a bar? Why are you so obnoxious?}
He said he KNOWS a man
im not disputing he might know someone im disputing the fact if he was part of football deals he wouldnt be randomly blurting these deals out to people in a pub you know?
curt {Ed002's Note - That is not what you wrote. Dumb and obnoxious.}
I said how well do you know him .......
and you call me arrogant ........
curt {Ed002's Note - Read what you wrote. And I did not call you arrogant. I called you dumb and obnoxious. }

Ed002 do you think Raul Meireles will be a chelea player next season? {Ed002's Note - There is a good chance he will not be.}
Where could he possible be heading?
Ed,
For what reasons would he not be? Through his own preferences or because the club see it fit he move on? {Ed002's Note - The reasons are irrelevant really but he will have an option in Italy with Napoli.}
Hi ed, is there any news on if Raul wants to stay? and which clubs are interested in him? also i would expect that if he were to leave we would look for a replacement?
Thanks mate!
Are you back from your travels now? if so how was it all?
Dan1CFC {Ed002's Note - The trip was fine thanks Dan. Juventus and PSG were looking at Raul Meireles but interest from Napoli is strongest right now.}
If he does go I wish him all the best. He's done a difficult job this season for us when he's come in and his goal against Benfica was a screamer. Some people haven't rated him, but as a squad player I don't see many better who can come in and fill that role. Hopefully we recoup most of the mony paid for him, though, which I saw as a bit high in the first place.

Ed is there it true that chelsea could be signing gregory van der wiel from ajax for 18 million and have already agreed a fee with porto for hulk in the region for about 40 million ? {Ed002's Note - No.}
07 Jun 2012 18:08:17
ED reports say Di Matteo is close to signing a deal to keep him as Chelsea boss is this true? {Ed002's Note - It is more than possible that a deal will be offered to Roberto di Matteo.}
He deserves it well done roman even if it is only to wait for pep
Carefree
ED, there has been speculation that RDM will only be offered a rolling one year contract. Is it in view of a potential return for Pep after a year to Chelsea? Thanks
TM {Ed002's Note - I would not necessarily link the two things.}
Would RDM's contract be a one year rolling contract or a lengthy one?
Thanks for the info
TM {Ed002's Note - Nothing has been decided just yet but there should be some news on the managerial situation pretty soon.}
07 Jun 2012 17:26:07
Is there any truth in Chelsea's interest for Marouane Fellaini and a supposed 20m bid? {Ed002's Note - I really don't know, but there seems to be much speculation.}
07 Jun 2012 12:41:15
With the players we have already brought in Marin,Hazard,Hulk(soon) and Torres giving the nod to be the main man next season, I don't see us getting Falcao or Cavani to be honest. I certainly like the idea of getting a striker that would be back up to Torres, cause I for one don't want sturridge for obvious reasons. I would like it to be Alvaro Negredo . The fella is awesome in the air, has great technique ,and pretty quick. I've watched him on more than one occassion and I've been pretty impressed ,plus he would be cheap,he's at a good age(26) and one of the strikers for spain at the Euros which shows he is class (picked over Soldado). He was linked with us a while back. ED do you think he is an option ,cause I remeber something about him being offered to us. First time I'm asking you a question ED so please be nice :). Thanks in advance.
ELI {Ed002's Note - Negredo was offered to Chelsea last year but I understand not for sale right now. That could change if he does well at the Euros and a high bid is made by someone.}
Yeah but don't forget that hulk can play as a striker.. And tbh I don't think lukaku will go anywhere.. We got a lot in depth now we bought a couple the only spot we meet to fill now is a back up RB then!
07 Jun 2012 16:42:07
Is there any interest in Axel Witsel? {Ed002's Note - Not that I am aware.}
07 Jun 2012 16:34:17
Hi Ed, is it true de bruyne going to Southampton on loan to gain prem experience {Ed002's Note - There are several options available - one of which is Southampton. No decision has been taken yet.}
Southampton would be good
trout
It will be good for both chelsea and de bruyne, so he can gain experience and show us what he's capable of, but also so chelsea can keep a close eye on him and his progress
07 Jun 2012 16:27:38
It is interesting that there are rumours circulating about the return of Joe Cole and Steve Clarke.Personally,I would love to see them both back.Joe ,as we all know,is one of the most skilled players ever to play for us.I think Loserpools are fools for letting skilled players such as Aquilani and Joe go.Absolute fools.I mean look at the players on their team.Good luck with playing "Tiki-taka" football with those players.In my view Joe can take up Benayoun's place or Malouda's and can help Hazard develop even more and settle in quickly.Clarke can do an amazing job with developing our youth system,which has many talented players in it.With Joe(if he comes) and Piazon coming in along with the new signing we would be the best ball playing ,skilled team in Europe.Last time we won the Champions League by playing defensive football ,this time we will win it by playing teams off the pitch.With the players that are coming in Man City are the only team that are capable of challenging us in the Premier League.
roan
Steve Clarke is set to be announced as the new Baggies manager, and i highly doubt that Joe Cole will return to sit on the bench, as that was the reason he didn't sign a contract extension in the first place. Not to mention that a) he's 31 and b) BR has said he will be looking at the loanee's (Cole and Aquilani) and deciding their future.

Do we have interest in james milner edd? {Ed002's Note - Not that I am aware.}

Hi ed just enquiring ous search for a striker do we still have an interest in Jefferson farfan cheers
Mickeydroyleg {Ed002's Note - No and he has signed a new contract.}

Chelsea spending spree set to continue as Abramovich lines up £20m Fellaini.

has anyone else heard that Chelsea are gonna get Joe Cole back for a cut price of 2 million
Might aswel for 2 million good back up would never get started though unless its league cup

hey ed,
in the unlikely event that the hulk deal doesnt work out would chelsea be interested in signing any of the following players, maoura, muller, gaitan, di maria, robben, lavezzi, rodriguez.
thanks,
cali {Ed002's Note - Possibly.}
Moura wont leave brazil untill 2014 and even then madrid will likely be the place he goes although inter milan are apparently stepping up there interest

James Milner set to sign for Chelsea after the euros would everyone be happy with him?
Average Average Average. Dont need or want him

Jordi Alba to Chelsea?
The 22-year-old is rated one of the best young talents in Spain and has been strongly linked with a move to Stamford Bridge. But reports in Spain suggest that Barcelona have an advanced agreement to sign the talented left back, but they have yet to agree terms with Alba.
Alba will be out of contract with Valencia at the end of next season and they will not want to risk him walking away as a free agent.
LiamsBiz
I think Alba will be Barca bound if anywhere.
IB.
Jordi Alba has a pre contract agreement with Barcelona. So it's most likely that he will join barca once they and Valencia agree a suitable fee :)
Ollie22 {Ed002's Note - There is no pre-contract agreement. There is interest in Alba from Barcelona and speculation about interest from both Manchester based clubs. Chelsea and AC Milan both made speculative enquiries about Alba before the January window. I would hazard a guess he could spend his near-term career in Spain - certainly he could well worry about the impact on his international prospects. Staying at Valencia another year is a perfectly possible outcome as is a deal to involve a Barcelona player going on loan as part of the package - perhaps Tello.}
Hes going to sign for barca

Chelsea observing Axel Witsel
Ramires is aware Chelsea are watching Benfica midfielder Axel Witsel.
He is not surprised that Witsel is on Chelsea's radar.
"It's known when a player stands out that Chelsea are eyeing him," said Ramires in the Portuguese media. "They're following Witsel and he's an excellent player.
"He's a player who can do very well in England."

Willian to Chelsea?
And the Blues boss has identified 22-year-old Shakhtar star as one of his next big-money targets.
Chelsea have been quietly keeping tabs on Willian since he helped the Ukranian side win the 2009 UEFA Cup.
And they are now set to step up their interest after watching him star during Shakhtar’s run to the Champions League quarter-finals.
Barca boss Pep Guardiola has also placed Willian at the top of his wishlist
LiamsBiz
Living in the past?

You can see how old this story by it stating the barce boss as pep guadiola at the bottom!

why Fellaini we have the money to get Sneijder. Fellaini is at his best behind Jelavic and we have Mata who does that job plus if we get Fellaini we'll be tempted to play long ball
I doubt Sneijder would be a target. Primarily due to his age.
IB.
Dont you no anything about football he more of an essien type of midfielder

Seeing alot of reports over Internet back pages and twitter that RDM has been offered the managers job. Could we have a manager in place by end of the week

Brilliant work eds.
Rumours keep appearing on twitter about Chelsea being intrested in Marouane Fellaini and that a bid will be lodged shortly.
Is there any truth to this, or just "t**tter" rubbish! Lol

Eds Thursdays Mail claiming Robbie might/will be offered the managers job.
Have you any info that confirms this?

OK mate, safe travels.
Can you post any update you may have when your feet have touched the ground, for a while..

hi ed i was just wondering if you have to compete in the fifa club world cup i cant remember liverpool or man u in it after winning champs league? the reason i ask is because as you will no it is in japan in december which in the premier league is the busy end of the season. so what i want to no if you can choose to enter it will we or not? i heard barca got in the region of $16mill for winning it.
jambo {Ed002's Note - Certainly United did as they skipped out of the FA Cup that year.}
Yes we (Liverpool) competed in it. We got beat in the final by Al Ahly if I remember correctly. Hope this helps.

Ed, had you heard about the thomas muller interest before today? Cheers {Ed002's Note - The interest stems from two years ago.}
Ed, do you see any potential bibs from us, personly see him strugleing for a starting position? {Ed002's Note - At the right price there may be interest again.}
06 Jun 2012 19:19:37
Would chelsea be interested in taking Steve Clarke back ED? {Ed002's Note - To do what? It really is too much of a wahtif question. I would like him take on a head coach or managers role.}
06 Jun 2012 18:35:29
Ed do Chelsea have any interest in athletic Bilbao iker muniain ?
Thank in advance
Blue con {Ed002's Note - Muniain was touted around the clubs on behalf of Bilbao in January - and the two clubs in England that were approached were Chelsea and Manchester United. The asking price was 40M euros. They won't get it because I don't think clubs would risk half of that on a player who is young and has had some off field issues. If the price comes down to a reasonable level I can see interest from several English clubs including Manchester United and Liverpool. Roma interest is still there and rumours abound of Juventus and Malaga interest but perhaps an eventual move to Barcelona beckons.}
06 Jun 2012 18:19:30
any offers to our players ,, out or loans ?
couldn't find a thing using the search function. {Ed002's Note - No decision will be made about loans for a wile yet.}

Is it true that Southampton could take De Bruyne on loan next season. Hope it's true would be nice to see him get some Premier League experience and would be likely to start.
