Barcelona have bid 60m for Willian.

Let’s not argue, we’ve all been waiting for some good news and it’s finally here with an unexpected bonus!

As I’ve just stated on the new manager thread. This is a massive deal for Chelsea. We’ve signed of the best playmakers in the world and on top of that, beaten City to his transfer.

What a massive coup that is for Chelsea. Signing one of the best playmakers in the world, beating one of the best sides in the world to his signature and signing the manager who made him. Looking forward to seeing attacking football at the Bridge next season under Sarri. Thank you, Roman.

Been a while since we made a big signing and this feels like one to me. One of the best deep lying playmakers in the world.

I agree. I don't have any faith in the current system in place at Chelsea to do the right thing. However, there's a lot of going round now about Jorginho signing for us instead of City.

Sarri along with beating City for Jorginho is a massive coup for Chelsea, regardless of the time it's taken. Jorginho is one of the best passers of a ball in world football currently and would fill a massive void that's been in our midfield all of last season. Sounds like Roman has finally realised that enough is enough (if this goes through that is).

Much more like it from Chelsea. Very shrewd business at £22m. Barcelona and Juventus were interested in him but looks like we've pipped them to it. Been very impressive at the World Cup and for CSKA. Fabrizio Romano?Verified account @FabrizioRomano Chelsea have started talks for #Golovin from CSKA Moscow. Juventus don't want to make a new bid for the Russian. @DiMarzio #CFC #transfers #Chelsea

If we’re going after Higuain then Sarri is going to be our new manager.

I had to stand outside my friend's house because I was too stressed and had the migraine from hell, also couldn't sleep for 3 days before the game because I was so nervous. Thanks, Chelsea.

Sources are crap. I highly doubt that’s the reason if we don’t end up signing him. My opinion is that we will.

Finally, a breakthrough. Translation added.

Could Roman finally be selling up?

Kicker reporting that only Chelsea are showing any serious interest in signing Lewandowski. Madrid don’t want him, PSG & United are interested but nothing substantial.

Just went onto a Bayern forum and they all want him gone, heart isn't in Munich anymore apparently. They think Chelsea could get him as well, strangely enough.

If the money is right.

He basically put out a makeshift side against Leipzig in the EL so he could focus on the league.

Sarri sacked. Chelsea have a free run at him now... Welcome Neil Warnock.

Sarri's football is easily one of the best in Europe. He has a track record of improving pretty much every player in that Napoli side. Jorginho is now seen as one of the best playmakers in the world whereas you probably hadn't of heard of him two years ago. Koulibaly was extremely average before Sarri went to Naples, now he's being estimated at over 100m. Insigne, Mertens & Callejon's goal tallies have increased dramatically since the introduction of Sarri's tactics. To prove this, Mertens has scored 47 goals in 73 games in the last two seasons whereas before that he had 22 in 97 games. Napoli's transfer budget is very stringent and nothing in comparison to the likes of Juventus, Inter and even Milan these days. They lost Higuain to Juventus a couple of seasons ago and have still remained close to Juventus despite their superior resources. He can be stubborn tactically at times, a bit like Conte and he doesn't fully utilise the squad he has. Hope that helps slightly.

Mahrez looks to be on the way to City. Keita already completed his move to Liverpool in January. Think it's exaggerated however that our rivals are doing much at the moment.

I cannot believe you guys don’t want Lewandowski. He’s in the top 2 best strikers in the world and is the sort of signing that could propel us to the title. His agent has close ties with Roman and we’ve been linked with him for a while now. The fact the Telegraph are reporting gives this deal some substance.

Arteta is going to Arsenal. Sarri is coming to Chelsea. That's my opinion. Cannot wait to see Hazard under Sarri if this is the case.

Whilst I want Conte gone, that’s so childish from Willian.

Was brilliant yesterday, truly world class.
