If the unthinkable happens we all be sick ! But it won't happen. Jose keeps saying Mata going nowhere.

The boy looks really good, very confident on the ball. I read that he only 17, and can't sign till he's 18 in September . But hopefully Jose can convince him to sign for us.

I am really looking forward to seeing if he can produce the goods for us this season. He took the league by storm last season when on loan at West Brom. This season will be a big test for him, but I'm sure he gonna be a great success for us. I'm 100% confident that Lukaku will become another legend for us.

Mata is world class I'd not exchange him for anyone.

I tend to agree Mediator, Robbie would be great . Have heard rumour that Jose wants to groom Lamps as future manager. In my opinion that would be brilliant.

I agree he does need to be loaned out again. If we're gonna sign Ruddy from Norwich perhaps Josh could be part of that deal. He than gets premier league experience.

If we can't get Cavani or Lewandowski than I'd go for Jovetic. But in Lukaku I think we've already got the ideal striker.

I wouldn't want to lose either. Mata makes us tick, just like Zola. I see Luiz as future captain. If I must make decision I'd probably say Mata, as Oscar could fill the role now.

Well said. I can't believe that someone (Arkan) would sign up today and effing criticise JT like that. Call himself a Chelsea fan. I would be very sad to see JT leave us as he been captain fantastic, but if he was to go to Monaco or Turkey I'd wish him all the best. Can't really see him going tho.

At 17m that be a good deal. He better than Marin and is still young. Under Jose he can develop into a top EPL player. Maybe Marin could ? Still think we need top striker but I am hopeful Lukaku will become that player.

If we can get him for 20m he'd be ok. He's a good player but In my opinion over rated. When at Porto with Falcao he was part of an awesome strike force. The move to Russia is obviously a mistake. I could see him as a useful squad member, but not our main striker.

He seems to have got better with age. Would be great signing , and would take pressure of Lukaku. At times he's rather arrogant, but I quite like that.

Thank you Roman, you've made me so happy.

Excellent news. Tears of joy. Can't wait to see the new signings which Jose wants. Next season cannot get here quick enough. Welcome home Jose.

Enjoy your time in Cornwall .

Win the EPL , decent run in champions league, plus another cup win.

We all know its 99.9% certain Jose will be our new manager, but somehow we've got to wait until after RM's last match on Saturday . Hopefully it will be officially announced on Sunday. Then let the celebrations begin.

Hi chelsea78, interesting that you come from Chichester too. I've just seen your profile and we both same age, be funny if we know each other. I'm now living in East Grinstead, see you are in Brighton.

Was it really 16 years ago ! I can just see Robbies goal now. I lived in Chichester back than and spent the Sunday in the Punch House celebrating. Then sleeping it off in Priory Park.

I read that quickly and thought you meant Emenalo playing for us !

Well said Davey, I totally agree. It does worry me that we may all be devastated. If Jose doesn't return home to us. The other managerial alternatives have now gone or going elsewhere. Or staying where they are.

Josh is very talented and we should hope he's given a chance next season. It's always good to see exciting young prospects getting first team chances. Romelu , KDB, Ake, And Chalobah should be pushing.

I read somewhere recently Cech is No2 in the world and Courtois No5 . What a luxury to have. I think we should get rid of Turnbull and Hilario and hope Jose can make the right decision. I say bring back Thibault and see who looks best after pre-season.

He looks a classy player, but IMO Boga is definitely a future star.

I'll be annoyed if we let KDB leave this summer. He looks good enough to get a chance in first team.
