More like Biabanys agent is linking him with us...


I think Ayew will still come good here for us.... I don't think like a few of our players that he is or has been used in a position that suits his natural skill set...

On the bright side we don't finish paying for him until 2019 (companies house documents show as well as Swansea have had to take out a loan from Santander to get the fees now...) so we have plenty of time... ;)

No kids from big clubs on loan, pointless and will only benefit the clubs we're trying to catch up with. Watch us get that Spurs kid on loan at right back :lol:

Get him in on a loan... One of those where he has 20 games to prove he's good enough before we spend 15 mil on him. Sorted.

Biabany - he is a winger which we dont need.

RB and striker first

then another CB and AM

maybe a GK

but not another winger

As far as RBs go ... there is still a lot of chatter on the St Ettienne guy ... Malcuit...

It's been a rolling story since Xmas and apparently we had 2 bids knocked back ...

Probably about right Ozza. Don't get a lot for that these days. As I've said, they'll be scouting the leagues for freebies and have the usual begging bowl out for loans :thdn:

Mentioned him months ago when he was absolutely on fire, people said they'd never sell, can't see how he'd get a game at Chelsea though unless they have our chef serving up lasagne every day.

If we are going to sign any young Chelsea striker it will be Solanke. He is out of contract in the summer and would cost about 5m via tribunal. I still think RB GK are just as important as a centre forward. Hart and one of Chambers of Vrsajiko please.

Solanke wants wage of like 50/60k, it's part of the reason Chelsea aren't keeping him, his wage demands are absurd, also his another Fletcher is my eyes except more unproven, his never played more than one game in English football and that was a sub, I'd take him yeah but for nowhere near what he wants

Summer yeah sorted
One goalie- hart or begovic for around 12-15 million
Right backs- zabeleta or Sagan for free

I think we may have to sell Ogbonna. I can't see him being happy with being on the bench

I don't think he will be. He is a better player than Fonte.

Fonte all day long. He's precisely what we've been missing at the back playing alongside our best Centre Half this season. Just a shame we'll only get to enjoy him for about 2 seasons before his legs pack up, unless we're lucky and he can continue to play at a high level like he has done for Southampton and now for us. He was fantastic today, just behind Lanzini for MotM.

Not in my opinion. Reid looks much more settled alongside Fonte.
