Maybe AVB has spotted something we are lacking or something that needs to be changed in attack. Problem being is we have too many attackers at the club already really so we need to off load some imo.

heard we will bit for arda turan, pastore and lukaku

A twitter rumour about Javi Martinez, who is a decent player. Sounds like agent bollox though.

sounds like twitter,facebook, hearsay, rumours, forums, i'llmakesomethingup.com are starting to get into overdrive------trying to hit the "100th player associated with Chelsea" 1st!!!!----still over a month of this sh*t to be printed :angry:

theres not a whole pile of talent moving at the moment with any club---just average workhorses...

So, sit back folks and enjoy the weather--chill out ----less than 2 weeks now til we get on the way again and AVB will have his targets sorted/signed i'm sure.......(he will have taken ACON into account and looking for cover for some of those guys).......

transfers----it all takes time...

heard we will bit for arda turan, pastore and lukaku

I haven't seen those three put together on any remotely reliable source - though obviously we've been linked to each of them individually - but add them to the deals already (more or less) sealed and I'd call this a very good summer.

The evening standard are reporting zirkov is closer to leaving to go back to russia. That's good, 1 foreign player out free's up squad space

So ridiculously talented!

That is mind boggling!!!! We should have offered the moon on a stick to get him to Chelsea.

Good article/analysis found on official forum: http://www.thehardtackle.com/2011/chelsea-fc-outlining-the-transfer-strategy/

What happened to us signing that young Russian who supported us? Cant remember his name, dragoev or something.

alan dzagoev?

Yep, Dzagoev. I looked him up a week or two ago, the article I read said he is developing nicely, plays a big part of the team and is set to be a big part of the Russian team.

However, I wonder if the 4 Russians in the EPL being inconsistent has anything to do with us expressing no interest.

I don't really understand why Russians & Ukrainians flop here, they are used to the sh*t weather & would expect them to be tougher mentally than some other European countries.

Maybe it is too warm for them!

I'm still wondering who the 4th Russian is :unsure:

Yuri, Smertin, Arshavin & Pavlyuchenko?

Edit: Oops, I thought he meant 4 "ever", not "currently".

Is Smertin still in the prem? The other 3 are the only ones I can think of.

Diniyar Bilyaletdinov, he is the fourth russian

Diniyar Bilyaletdinov, he is the fourth russian

Nice one, forgot all about him. He looked a great prospect when Everton got him, but barely seems to get a game now.

Diniyar Bilyaletdinov, he is the fourth russian

Yep, he's basically the reason I did not type out all of them, because there is no way in hell I could spell his name.

I remember there were loads of reports saying we had a pre-agreement deal with him

Inter agree fee with Utd with Sneijder...oh dear

The Express have an interesting take on the Sneijder situation.

You mean this story in the Mirror:

Elsewhere the Mirror are quoted as giving the agreed fee as £30 million. Which seems just a little on the low side,. don't you think?
