Bad news, Rajkovic's work permit appeal is not going well.

Ultimate decision to CFC's appeal to the rejection decision will be made late next week, no one is hopeful.

Highly (I mean HIGHLY) unlikely that their will be a huge U turn and he will be granted one, really bad news. Was hoping to finally see him get some game time, I'm sure Andre may now go out and buy a young CB since Kalas is expected to got out on loan to Vitesse.


Alex to Juve/Bayern will surely be put off now until at least January which I'm personally glad about...My only problem with Alex is his injury problems but when he plays he's one of the best CB's in the Prem.

Also De Telegraaf (Weird source for CFC bids) are saying Chelsea have bid 55m euros for Moutinho and Pereira. The 2 targets are very plausible, the 55 million euros for the pair is a tad steep considering it values Pereira at 20m euros.

didn't avb say/hint/paper talk that if the work permit fails, then we'll go in for dann?
 
I would rather not sign Dann being honest, half the player without Johnson in my opinion.

Would much prefer someone like Gary Kagelmacher (Cheap, chirpy and solid).

Above Dann I would want Samba to be honest.
 
Jamie. any reliable news about Mata ?????

If Alex stays(i hope he does) we wont need Dann. We have JT Alex Brane Luiz.. And even Oriol can play as CB if extremely necessary.

Heard about Rajkovic earlier, very disappointed. Would have been perfect for us for the next season, now we might go and buy a CB, which is annoying.
 
There is a strong story doing the rounds that a new €36m (Total, not fee) package was sent officially to Valencia today. The idea is €18m this summer, €12m next summer and then 6m in add ons based on 1) PL titles/appearances 2) International honours won, there is a €1.5m clause involved apparently if Mata wins a Euro/WC tournament whilst at Chelsea.

Need to wait until tonight/tomorrow morning for when the dust has settled because with La Liga being called off it appears that the next 2 weekends will essentially become business days for clubs.

Looking likely at the minute.

Yeah and Dann missed quite a few games last year through injury.
 
Courtois wise I'm doubting whether he is Atleti's first choice going into the season, which would be annoying, Asenjo isn't their 1st choice either...

They are playing a young GK who came up with De Gea called 'Joel', he's 6 foot 5 athletic and dubbed as a clone of De Gea...So why on earth did they loan Courtois?

Joel will start the season at Atleti as their number 1, which no doubt will anger Chelsea fans who will feel he's more use to us over here than sitting on a bench in Spain.

I have to admit it was baffling to me but Joel is their number one GK going into the season.
 
^^

Sorry but i have to LOL at you sending away Cech's backup on loan, Cech gets injured Chelsea forced to play 3rd or 4th choice GK, Athletico make the keeper you loaned to them the backup GK and use thier own homegrown gk has the #1
 
I couldn't understand why Atleti signed him, with Joel/Asenjo they had 2 top class young GK's.

They're like that annoying FM player who hordes all of the young stars and puts them in their reserves/youth.

We all knew they had a 6''5 animal in Joel when they sold De Gea, then they praise and go for Courtois...

MAYBE Chelsea should ask for Asenjo on loan to even it out...There's an idea.

Crux of it is, Turnbull/Hilary aren't quite good enough to step in if Cech get's injured for 2-3 months out of a season and they would lose us points...At least in Asenjo we have someone who's talented and young.

Hilary is better than Turnbull mind, I do enjoy Hilary's displays in the Chelsea jersey but he's not exactly 'in his prime'.

Courtois isn't his back-up, Hilario is.

I am pretty sure/hopeful that Chelsea must have added some clauses n his contract regarding the number of appearances and if we can terminate the loan etc. unless Gourlay negotiated it...


On the subject of a CB, do we really need one? We have Terry, Alex, Luiz and Ivanovic plus Kalas and Nats Chalobah who can play there if extremely necessary not to mention Oriol Romeu and Ferreira, would rather sign players that we need more not a Centre-Back

Kalas is going to be loaned out most likely. Nats is only 16 if we get injuries I don't want to have to rely on him. Saying that though, like you I'd rather not get a CB.

Spanish media reporting Valencia have accepted a bid for Mata.

FROM US ???????????
 
Is that sarcasm BH or...?

Even those who don't speak Spanish can see the Marca link ''Mata....Chelsea''.
 
so what do all you fellow Chelsea fans reckon tomorrows score against west brom will be? Im going to guess a comfortable 4-0 victory with Drogba netting twice and also Malouda and torres to find the net.

Torres a hattrick.
 
Chelsea defender Alex tells SkyItalia he knows of Juve interest, spoke to Diego & Amauri, very interested, but not on loan
 
Alex:"If Juventus want me outright I'd be very happy, i would accept, Juventus are a great club & playing in Italy interests me"
 
^Pauley got to it.

Background to the story is my favourite 2 Brazilians Amauri/Diego have spoke to him about Juventus and life in Turin...So essentially mentioned their Juve pay cheques.

Problem is, he said he doesn't want a loan and will only move to Juve if he gets a 4 year contract offer.

Diego and Amauri...Your killing me here, maybe AVB could swap Alex for Amauri and play Amauri CB?

Can see the deal happening, Marotta is stupid enough to give him a 4 year contract and Juve need a top CB.

Sad to see you go from one of my clubs...And join my other club, can't shake Alex off.

I just hope Alex told them about life in Chelsea...Diego deal could still be hijacked AVB...You know it makes sense Andre.
