Anyone know what's going on with Marco van ginkel?

09 Aug 2018 19:23:03
I’m sorry to say MVG has another injury.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 19:36:27
He had another knee ligament surgery, could be out for 6-8months.

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 21:46:38
He has had major reconstructive ACL surgery. You have to feel sorry for the guy, fought his way back from surgery after surgery to fulfill some of his potential last season and this happens.

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 22:03:07
he doesn't have a injury . he had surgery to. put him out for pretty the season!

Agree0 Disagree0

Reports of Fekir agreeing personal terms, is there any truth to this or is it just nonsense?

Believable2 Unbelievable2

09 Aug 2018 16:59:46
the fee has now been agreed so there is a chance, it is just time that is the issue now.

Agree1 Disagree2

09 Aug 2018 17:03:50
I'm pretty sure it's paper talk as the window has closed.

Agree1 Disagree2

09 Aug 2018 17:03:50
R u kidding me right now . Id b over the moon if we get this one over the line.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 17:03:57
Ed001, you tease.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 17:06:27
are ye been serious here is it this a piss take? if fee is agreed can they talk after deadline is over or how does it work.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 17:05:00
Please say your not winding us up ed001!
This would be our best window in years if we can get Fekir over the line!

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - I'm not but time is pressed so it is likely to be too late.}

09 Aug 2018 17:08:03
Wow did not expect that ed, if we get this done I’ll be in shock. We don’t have long to agree personal terms and sort a medical though so I’m not getting my hopes up just yet.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 17:08:04
Any truth that Lyon upped the price to £72m 15 minutes before the deadline?

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - no that was Tuesday they did that, hence why it took until now for Chelsea to agree. Obviously a case of time and options run out so they said yes.}

09 Aug 2018 17:11:20
Did they get a deal sheet submitted in time?

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - I have no idea, it could be hours before we know for sure. They might have filed for an extension. Again it comes down to the FA getting through all the paperwork to get to it and confirm it.}

09 Aug 2018 17:11:43
still highly unlikely to happen so edd as not even sky sports have announced it?

Agree0 Disagree1

09 Aug 2018 17:12:04
Think they have until 7 to confirm as long as the deal sheet was in for 5.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 17:17:09
bit dissapointing they left it so late and now didn't get him.

Agree0 Disagree1

09 Aug 2018 17:22:23
I thought that there are documents that can be submitted that will make the give you more time to complete a transfer.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 17:43:44
Sky reporting the FA have received 10 deal sheets from premier league clubs allowing them to work on deals until 7 o clock .
Hopefully Fekir is one of them deals! Fingers crossed.

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 17:46:39
sky news is saying 10 deal sheets are up for extension maybe we are among them I hope.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 17:57:37
Anybody else seen the photo put up by Jorginho on his official instagram account?
Quite blurry but the guy walking with Willian looks an awful lot like Fekir!
Very strange and random pic for Jorginho to post, on today of all days?

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 18:07:48
no dice guys he won't be coming we are not on the deal sheets according to sky left it too late.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 18:11:52
I’m not turning SSN off until this is confirmed or denied 😂 I will literally sit here all night if I have to.

Agree2 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 18:11:56
Sky have listed the possible 10. we are only involved in Zouma to Everton.
Still been a great window.
Very happy with what we have done.
Looking forward to another season.

Thanks to the Eds for your stella work, enjoy a well earned nap before the season starts tomorrow.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 18:55:18
Ed001, is it time we all go to sleep?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed033's Note - Ed001 has gone bye byes.

09 Aug 2018 18:36:06
Dan, i agree . will wait til Ed 001 confirms that the deal is off or on.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - sorry mate I fell asleep but it did seem to have been just too late to get it done.}

09 Aug 2018 19:10:37
Any idea if anything happened in the end Ed? Traveling through twitter and can’t find much! Cheers.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - I think it was just left too late. That was certainly the way it seemed when I fell asleep.}

09 Aug 2018 19:14:59
Hi ed any chance that we could get Fekir on loan with option to buy if we have missed the dead line.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - no, Premier League teams are done now until January on incomings. Only outgoings allowed now, loans or otherwise. Football League teams can make loan signings up until the 31st.}

10 Aug 2018 11:31:50
Cheers for the reply Ed. Shame we didn’t get him but looking at the positives, other players like Hudson-Odoi and Batshuayi might get more of a chance now depending on what position Fekir was bought to play.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - true.}

09 Aug 2018 14:21:51
Ed 001,
Is the Fekir deal unlikely now?

Believable1 Unbelievable0

{Ed001's Note - very unlikely now.}

09 Aug 2018 14:41:43
CAN INTERPRETE THIS:
Chelsea ha hecho una oferta de último momento de 60M€ + variables al #Lyon por el mediocampista francés Nabil Fekir (25). Es muy difícil que suceda, pero hay posibilidades.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 15:07:51
A Journalist stating that Chelsea placed a bid €60m + bonuses. He stated that it would be difficult to get the deal done at this late stage, but if Chelsea have placed such a sizeable offer, we can’t rule anything out.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 15:00:42
I read that too but still will go with ed001 over some south America report.

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 15:59:22
ah well i didn't expect it to happen anyway so.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 16:26:44
Remember as long as they get their sale sheet by 5.00pm they have a further two hours to complete everything.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 16:36:51
I still even at this time have a feeling we’ve got a signing to announce 😉 #Robinhomoment.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 12:59:21
hi eds is victor moses leaving the club on loan or at all.

Believable1 Unbelievable0

{Ed001's Note - it is very possible, Sarri is not particularly impressed by his touch apparently. Seen as expendable.}

09 Aug 2018 13:45:40
It’s good when a professional footballer has a poor touch 😂.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 13:48:58
I think they should cash in. We have 4 full backs, 2 on each side.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 13:57:06
wouldn't like Lukaku then lol.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - probably not.}

09 Aug 2018 13:58:55
thanks for quick reply i bet your looking to 5pm tonight lol.

Agree0 Disagree1

{Ed001's Note - I am just looking forward to getting in my bed and shutting my eyes tonight!}

09 Aug 2018 10:02:26
Just a little snippet from ed002 on the Liverpool page about Fekir and also suggesting Chelsea have a lot more business to be done before the window is shut.
He also stated that the goalkeeper situation has been sorted so I guess the Kepa deal is done.
Could be an exciting couple of days!

Believable1 Unbelievable0

09 Aug 2018 10:27:15
Hello mate, Kepa was announced last night and there pics of him everywhere in our shirt! Kovacic also announced subject to the Tbo deal going through. Not sure what else we can expect though.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 10:32:23
That to me means players going out rather then in.

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 11:42:54
Lyon want €80 million for Nabil Fekir, Chelsea willing to pay €60m, talks far off but continue (AlfredoPedulla) .

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 15:25:59
What did Liverpool offer? Surely we just need to match that?

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 09:24:18
Hi any of the ed's Just seen jay da silva likely going to Bristol city is that a loan I'm taking it as in a few more years imo he'll be our left back.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed001's Note - I think it is a loan yes.}

09 Aug 2018 10:26:49
Thankyou for the reply mate.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2018 01:01:13
edd any idea is the move for fekir if we do move at all does that have any nearing on wether bakayoko goes to milan or not. as in if bakayoko moves to milan will that make us go all out for fekir?

Believable2 Unbelievable1

{Ed001's Note - I don't believe there is any connection.}

09 Aug 2018 08:27:45
Magicandshurley - I think Bakayoko is now going on loan to AC Milan with a view to buy as a consequence of us bringing in Kovacic on loan from Real.

That being said, I really hope we can do something for Feki before the end of the window.

Agree0 Disagree0
