now just waiting for the approval of Thohir ( but it's difficult he will oppose)

Reports in England say that Inter rejected the 12m pound bid and want 15m pounds.

Tancredi Palmeri ‏@tancredipalmeri 2h
BOOM! Chelsea have raised their bid for Inter's Guarin to 18m €, deal close to be reached

anyway a thing is sure : Guarin will be a Chelsea player.
I said it already a few days ago.
we have formalized everything before a derby, I want to see with what spirit he will play. it is all so absurd.

Palmeri is not the most reliable source but I am starting to agree with you. Interesting to see Chelsea doing business on what they need the most early.

Is Agger available?

Fredy Guarin is moving closer to a January transfer from Inter to Chelsea, according to the Gazzetta dello Sport.

The London club are keen on the Colombian midfielder and a switch could be agreed over the next few weeks.

Chelsea are apparently willing to offer €15m for a player who cost the Nerazzurri €11.5m from Porto in 2012.

The player’s agent will apparently hold discussions with the English giants to discuss personal terms. A three-and-a-half year contract is being prepared.

The 27-year-old has scored 14 goals in 71 games for the Beneamata since his move to Italy. He’s also played for Saint-Etienne in Europe.

I thought chelsea needed only a striker

Our pivot is generally either poorly balanced or just total rubbish. We've never been a team that relies on a striker for 30 goals a season, with a large majority coming from midfielders and defenders. Not saying I wouldn't love a better striker but that might not be the #1 priority, we've needed a good CM for the past few seasons.

20m and he's yours.

Guarin going to be a good signing for Chavs.. Guarin-Ramires.

Real Madrid interested in Matuidi, according to France Football. He only has six months left on his current deal.

Yeah he'll suit the EPL fine but he's a bit lazy though.I guess Mou can take care of that.

Guarin is overpriced for 18m, but I suppose you can demand that kind of cash when Chelsea come calling. 18m straight into the Nainggollan fund.

I'm reading they'll reinvest that money into Lavezzi.

I just dont think Mazzarri seems particularly keen on Nainggolan.Could be wrong though.

Yeah, it's Thohir who wants Nainggolan.

L'Ecrape reporting PSG will bid 40m for Pogba.

I would love this just so I could see you do a 180 on Zaha and love him when he's playing well for you

Considering I have been calling him overrated and brainless long before he even was linked with Man Yoo I doubt that very much.

I have watched more than probably this entire forum combined.... I stand by what I said two and half years ago....

He's shit and won't amount to anything.

Damn, is this legit? Because I'd totally be OK with that, Matuidi is one of the few French players I actually like after the ludicrous French footballer overrating of Sports/Nick/RG/Moal.

What French players do I overrate? Hell I want us to stop buying French players as its gone too far and the talent is all dried up

I added your name mostly for lols

Woah. Matuidi is going to be available for free this summer? He would walk into a lot of teams.

Sorry Zeal brah misunderstood

Also France Football know the total sum of F all I'd ignore personally.

the matuidi stuff is not serious because PSG have no interest in letting him go. he has issues with his agent but he will sign a new deal

Don't see him leaving. He is getting game time and playing in a high quality team. PSG will say "write your own cheque" and that will be the beginning of a new 5-yr deal.

Matuidi is changing agents from his old one to Raiola... it's been dragged in court by his old agent.  He can't sign anything until a ruling comes down by the french court system.  That's the reason he hasn't signed.  The deal has already been agreed to...

You don't think that it's the french players that are saving Pardew and Newcastle's arse right now? Playing well despite awful manager lol.

Misunderstood Sports.....

I'm happy with the ones we have but its gone too far..... enough is enough, we have like 11 french players time to even up the squad with different nationalities.

According to that widget on the side there, Man U wants Zapata
