Goal.com is saying that you guys made a 30millions pounds offer for Strootman ...Where does that come from ?

by Shed Sun Dec 14, 2014 4:39 am

Posted something about it in the January 2015 thread.

As for where it comes from; originally, who knows. Likely one of the rags in England with their customary click-bait guesswork. The Express, the Metro, the Star – got to be one of the usuals.

Chelsea's Target Jonathas aiming to become new Diego Costa
http://www.sambafoot.com/en/news/68932__.html

In the league, Jonathas has eight goals (10th leading scorer) and gave five assists. He had a part in 13 of the 18 goals of his team. More than 60 percent of Elche’s goal of the fret of Jonathan.
Q: Some newspapers are reporting that Chelsea could bet on you as a new Diego Costa next season. It is true?

A: I saw these articles, but there was no proposal. West Brom was also mentioned. The morning before the game against Villareal a director was watching our training with the president. He was talking to Mario (Pasalic) and then I knew he was not there to accompany the player, but to observe me.

Maurizio Zamparini (Palermo president) has said we want Dybala. I somehow doubt it.

by Katy Perry Thu Feb 12, 2015 2:15 pm

He's extremely talented and still very young and his contract ends in 2016 so Palermo will have to sell him this summer if they don't want to lose him for nothing next year but we're pretty much covered up front, I'd go for him only if Remy and Drogba leave at the end of the season

by Kick Thu Feb 12, 2015 10:59 pm

I can't see us going for him, at all.

Drogba will be around next year, Remy will more than likely stay and Bamford is waiting in the wings.

I imagine we're more monitoring him just incase something goes wrong up front.

by Kick Thu Mar 05, 2015 1:15 am

With the sale of Thorgan Hazard, Everton's poor form, and our lack of English first teamers, does anyone else think we could go after Barkley in the summer?

Or another young English talent?

by Kick Thu Mar 05, 2015 1:28 am

Also, we've been scouting Anderlecht youngsters Youri Tielemans and Leander Dendoncker.

Douglas Costa wrote:"Yes, I had a contact [with Chelsea] and the chance to work with a coach like Jose Mourinho always motivates a player. I am very grateful for the kindness he showed with me. He is a very smart coach and who won [titles] wherever he has gone."

Interesting that our interest in him was real. With Thorgan no longer a loanee, I could see us making a move for him.

by Shed Fri Mar 13, 2015 12:19 am

Does he run around aimlessly for 90 minutes? Does he spend more time in his own half than in the opposition's? Does he have next to zero ability in the roles and responsibilities his position requires? And will we be able to count his goals and assists on one hand come the end of the season? If the answer to all of these is yes, then welcome aboard to José Mourinho's Chelsea!

by Hapless_Hans Fri Mar 13, 2015 12:23 am

Shakhtar's Douglas Costa?

He's a thug who should have seen red in both games of our tie, so it kind of makes sense he sparked your interest.
