And the Chelsea manager who ever it may be is guaranteed to pick him. Or is that a condition of the job, you have to pick Hazard?
It'll have to be higher than city bid
Doesn't really matter. FFP will hammer Chelsea at the rate you guys are spending on transfers and wages. Jesus Christ I can only imagine, Hulk, Hazard and Modric coming to Chelsea. What is happening to football... My gosh..
50m Euros.
THE DEAD SEA UP IN THIS BITCH
God, start of the season with Anderson ad Cleverley was the best we've played since Tevez's first season.
What I don't get is who they're gonna sell to get some money back. The major players are aging.

True, Chelsea don't even have the dodgy deals in place that City have.

Well who in our team is going to challenge him?
Last I remember the club had said our expenditure was looking pretty peachy. Then we bought Torres, but by now he'll of been paid off. I think people think we're worse of than we really are. Also, why do people concern themselves with club finances, nevermind other clubs finances. Do you guys not think that the accountants haven't sat down and figured this all out?

Malouda + 5M should be enough probably. Throw in Paulo Ferreira, he probably would fancy a return to Porto.
It was pretty, but I think it might have lost us a few games if we played it through the whole season.
Mata of course or have you forgotten what he's done for you in the hole this season?
FFP is gonna do fuck all

Roman laughs at ffp. LAUGHS.
ol Suggest not completely underestimating it dude. Anyway, why the hell hasn't Chelsea's website updated with this news.. Kinda odd..
You kinda need a manager first..

Watch this space. Reports a top PL team will announce something "biggish" tmrw from a sponsorship consultancy group.
At least FSG has ambition.
Surely you must hire a manager before transfers can be sorted?
We would have been beaten by City for sure, but if Wigan can play fast fluid football and beat a bunch of teams so can we. I'd love to see us play like that more often. We play poorly as many times as we play well sometimes nowadays.

:lol your funny. Yeah I forgot about Mata... I can't imagine both of them not playing.

Mata could easily play on the left though... Marin could end up being in a decent position if he's capable of playing across all of the attacking 3, would make him a versatile option.
Im wondering if City will try and gazump us on Hulk, i'd be very disappointed if they did
Yes, that's rather the point!
Drogba, Lampard, Cole, Terry, Essien - your spine. Surely you don't want to sell Mata?
The shift you're doing atm is going to be an expensive one.
Abramovich in the future will probably just buy the players as a separate entity from cheslea and just loan them to the club for 1p a year.

City doesn't need another striker. Aguero will stay, Balotelli and Dzeko wants to as well.
The big question mark is Tevez.

You're linked to Cavani and Lavezzi I think.
Most likely bs, but you guys can dream like the rest of us.

Bargain.
They won't have to sell players. They will work a way around uefa's clown rules.
Whatever team Arkady ends up buying will become our resource pool.
Mata did well in that position.
Talking about City. Today the FA passed the proposals t changing youth football.
Considering the Etihad Campus is going to be made up of all sorts of football facilities I can see it being pivotal to youth development. UEFA surely won't deny England developing young players.
Yeah, they'll have to let go of somebody. Lampard for example aint leaving since he was just offered a contract as well.
And that rumor comes from the same paper that said Bale would move to Inter for £40m.

Jesus, it's like this topic hasn't already been discussed about 1000 times, nevermind within the last few minutes on this page alone.
Surely Roman at some point wants a return of investment? Or at least stop bleeding.

I'm convinced Liverpool will spend really big this summer. It will depend on the manager FSG bring in though. McLeish would convince Bent, Lambert would bring Holt with him. Dempsey, Jarvis, Hoilett would all be realistic targets.
Calm down.

Drogba only played well in big games, didn't give a shit about the league
