The Fail are claiming PSG have bid £50 mil for Cavani.

I admire the way they don't give a shit about ffp. I also think our lower profile is a good idea though. Let others deal with it.

while i understand our owner's desire to show compliance with FFP, i despair at the list of targets we've lost to clubs who don't (or don't need to) give a fuck: pastore, sanchez, t.silva, ibra, lavezzi, hazard, rvp, falcao, isco, cavani(?)... any one of them would have made us a lot stronger.

I dare you to name any song other than "I'm too" from [strike]him[/strike] them without looking up.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Didn't ask you. I knew you'd be fan. If I had to name one guy on this site who owns back catalogue of Boy George it'd be you.

Lots of rumours flying around that mourinho is ready to sell Mata. We should surely be in for him if this is the case - player of the season last season for me

If it's true I would expect City to be all over it.He has been outstanding at Chelsea.Mourinho would need his head examined if he let him go

Why would they sell him? And to a rival as well. Non starter.

It's clearly bullshit. There were rumours of this on twitter about a month ago. Maybe he's on some kind of time delay and is only just catching up to last month's gossip....there's no fucking way Chelsea are gonna sell their player of the season.

Regardless of what happens with Lewandowski this looks like a good signing for them

Rather him than others we've been linked to, Cavani notwithstanding.
