I know one. He's ace.

But from looking at that forum i've found the only decent one.

Oh this Chelsea fan is cocky is he? Torres scored two more goals than Naismith last season but he costed 50 times more than Nais.

You know, I don't begrudge Chelsea fans their lottery win but they really do need to be a bit more self aware and recognise that not so very long ago they were playing lower division football in a delapidated ground watching such luminaries as Mickey Droy, Tony Cascarino, Jason Cundy, David Speedie and Dennis flippin' Wise before getting sniffy about other players from other teams.

BTW your spot on comparing Torres and Naisy last season.....I'd day the wee Jock enhanced his reputation a lot more than Torres did his.

We go in to the season with just Costa and Torres...oh dear...

There is no way we are going into next season with just Costa and Torres. I am really hoping this is all a bunch of bullsh*t.

Poor sods.

Chelsea also have an option of paying part of his wage for the remainder of his two year contract to force a move to Atletico. I'm sure Martinez has contingency plans if Lukaku is unattainable. You guys should be looking at Bony instead.

There's some confusion over the valuation clause for Bony, and Swansea want more than most teams are willing to pay. That's why he didn't go to Liverpool, and I doubt we'd feel any different. I wouldn't count on Bony.

I also know one fan who moved up north and worked with for a year. He no longer works with me, but he's a nice guy.

Perhaps Roberto isn't rushing it as he knows the player is already settled with the squad and that along is no reason to push the transfer right now and overspend. Maybe he's got the deal virtually sorted and is spending his time on other targets, i.e Besic and Balotelli.

Are we linked with Balotelli? :O

Put it this way if he doesn't post a tweet on Twitter by 14:00 today displaying a newly-inked Everton crest (the new design) across his heart, I'll be booing the heck out of him for the rest of his career, plus sending him insulting messages via a plethora of social media platforms.

Romelu, you are dead to me.

And how many wins did you have against us in the 90's, hmmm? I seem to remember us being much better than you. Chelsea have been a better side than Everton for two decades and counting.

Boy oh boy do I hope we sign Romelu Lukaku.

I know three from where I work and they are all sound, one is actually pretty clued up as well and is great to have a football chat to, but the other two have no idea what's going on with football and just jumped on the billionaire bandwagon..
And I mean no idea...

Watching the Brazil mach and one genuinely says...
"That Neymar's quite good"... the response...
"Yeah he'll be playing for Chelsea at this rate, if not he'll defo end up in somewhere in Europe soon"
Err yeah, he might ffs.

That would definitely be a positive during this transfer window.

Someone,interviewer or a fan needs to ask him tomorrow and see if he responds,and ask are we still waiting for Lukaku or what,quite boring this now,will he ,wont he etc,

And the Drogba thing as said,him going chelsea if he does,can work both ways,lukaku will want to stay with his hero and learn etc,or he might want to go as he might not play [or as much as he wants] etc
