Im new here however been a CFC fan for over 15 years.

Anyway.. I feel as though this transfer would give us something we havent had for a while... Goals from outside the box and that surgical pass from just outside the box.

He has the skills to unlock defences with his tricks and unpredictable play. Imagine the link up play between Hazard and him.

Add this transfer to that of Koulibaly and possibly a Left Back and Chelsea have had the top window of the big clubs.

 

 

Welcome barnzy!

Relatively new myself mate. Definitely agree that if we sign Koulibaly and Ricardo Rodriguez along with James we'll be a force to be reckoned with for the next few years! Wishiful thinking but anything can happen haha, 2 days left in the market hopefully it's a busy few days ahead 

if there's anything to this rumor we'll be seeing traction starting today i reckon, only 3 days to go for a transfer this magnitude

Let's hope so, would be a great addition to the squad 

Seriously doubt it would happen, he's a world class player and we only have 3 days left. 

 

Obviously would be a huge signing but too good to be true. All I'm expecting now is squad reinforcements, just your average players like Hector, Papy etc.

Well he has 3 days to decide if he wants to continue to warm the bench at Madrid or come to Chelsea and become a legend... or at least much better than his Colombian mate

You forget there is also no trustworthy paper reporting we are in for him. Only junk sources until now..

Staggered that anyone genuinely thought this was a possibility. 

If I had to predict what's going to happen, then I would say 

In: Alonso, Brozovic and De Vrij

Out: Cuadrado, Matic

Cant see matic leaving, having started every game.

The signing wouldn't be beyond us, so why not..

We need that player so bad. Oscar is still bad and he doesn't give anything in the offense. Fabregas could be Conte's new Pirlo but Antonio has started personal vendetta against him for no reason, so he is not an option. Willian and Hazard are great players both but they are wings. They cannot create chances and pass the ball properly like the standard playmaker does. Matic and Kante shooting or passing the ball - please. We must buy this fella to prove that we are not the new Arsenal and we don't like the f***ing "Arsene way".

Agreed, Conte out!

Counte out, Arsene in. If Roman and the board act like this, they deserve him. 

Ironically they've been missing two players like Kanté and Batshuayi for years.

Double ironically they were both young players in the French league!

Gold star for putting the effort in to add the accent. Tell me, you do the same for Fàbregas?

Weird thing if we really don't go for him as it seems. We just snuff around and made a query. If Real can do without him and he wants to leave just make it so.

No, but then I don't speak Spanish. Also trying out the accent shortcuts on my home PC seems to make it go funny for some reason. At work it's fine.

Do we honestly believe this will happen? I can't see how some people are excited about this, and yet will bash Oscar and Fabregas

 

I've seen folk talk about using Fabregas in the deal, but I can't understand that either.  We'd be getting rid of a creative, premiership proven midfielder for someone that has been riding the bench at Real?

If we play him out wide, then who does he replace?

Expect to see James rumors in January

Fun, fun, fun!

 

hames rumors resurfacing again..

 

If Oscar goes for 62m I think we should be looking at a player like Hames...

For me he is not a good fit for our team at all. He is a good at passing the ball, but he is not direct and he is not good at takeons. We need someone simillar to Hazard, who can get past players on his own, direct and knows what he is doing in the final third.

Like?

Can he play wide right? We don't play with a 10, and if we're intent on breaking the bank on 1 marquis name, Greizemann (can't ever spell that) would be ideal.
