He had a tough one today, but I think he's way too fricking good to get rid of...

I'd love to have a player like him..

Pool needs Wanyama. But Pool won't buy him.


Sounds like Denayer is off on loan to Galatasaray. Was hoping that he'd get a chance with City's first team this season.

I'd love Wanyama... wanted him from Celtic.. I'd give them back Lallana and Lovren for him..

He's exactly the kind of player we need to protect our back four...

Same here. He needs more seasoning though. I figure this is DeMichelis last season at the etihad and with Otamendi coming in I doubt he would see much time. Next season he'll get time.

Not when you would be getting Pogba in return. I would be fine offloading Matic while his stock is still high. I think he's headed downhill. There I said it. He was pedestrian for the second half of last season and been downright garbage so far this season. He's too slow.

Hopefully he will pull it together and play like he did when he first got to Chelsea.

I'm not too sure it will happen that soon. If you look at the logic of Juve's mercato they seem to trying to rebuild the team with younger talent around Pogba.

Of course, someone may actually give them a Zidane type offer (like PSG dealing them Verratti, just for example) that changes their mind or Pogba may eventually want to move but they're not going to be easy to deal with since they have no shortage of money.

They also have a wealth of fairly valuable younger players on the roster and on loan they could sell if they need extra for specifically big purchases.

It's their finances that have seen them to the top of Serie A the past few years.

L-O-L. You've actually suggested selling Costa and getting rid of Matic in the same week.


Pogba is 5x the player Matic is.

wm has suggested they need midfielders bad. Well in my scenario they are getting two guys (one they openly covet and another widely regarded as one of the top holding mids in the world) plus another 25m to go and buy someone else with quality.

I think in this scenario they are much better off keeping progba and buying another midfielder. They aren't a tiny club which would have to sell to fund transfers. And they don't need to downgrade just to add an extra player.

I can see saying here's a possible scenario maybe juve would consider it but I cannot agree with offer them this deal and it's done.

I'm just throwing stuff out there, none of it is actually going to happen. I'd rather try and trim some of the fat and save some money than just spending all of our cash.

Is there a player on a the Chelsea squad that you actually like, besides Eden? I'd love for you to find a new team. It's pretty obvious you hate all the players.

The only one I don't really like is Costa because he can't control himself. I also recognize the limitations of players like Willian and Oscar.

I like Willian a lot, he just isn't good enough if we want to be an attacking team.

I want to like Oscar but he fades hard every season, that's a fact. We need someone more reliable.

I like Fab he's just not being utilized optimally at the moment.

I think Matic is just in bad form right now but will be alright. That said I wouldn't think twice about shipping him off if it meant bringing in Pogba.

Think Roma's may move Iturbe to Everton.

He's going to be good but right now he's more fast and a counter attack threat with a good shot.

That means Yarmolenko is staying in Ukraine. I knew he wouldn't move.

Juventus have to be aggressive in this market.

They have not replaced Tevez and Vidal, both very instrumental in them winning the Seriea and Making it to CL final.

they need a forward and a Dm who can lead from the back.
