Radiene said:

Chelsea's main targets for the transfer window are Varane, Griezmann, Falcao, and Pogba. The first three mentioned are highly likely for us but Pogba will be a long shot, but there's a possibility. We need someone like him as Ramires is inconsistent.

Who are you looking for your team to sign for the upcoming season?

I don't think Varane is easy to get,I hope Real is not THAT stupid to give him away instead of keeping him.

Real is going for Verrati,De Gea is highly likely to join us and Iker seems to leave the club.Khedira to Juventus,bye bye.Now sell Illiaramendi too.

Arsenal on the other hand are trying to get Jackson Martinez,Marchisio and Cech.Tbh if they do get them,for me they are good signings.Especially Martinez,but no talk about getting a quality defender and I don't like that.

Aleix Vidal has singed for Barcelona,another quality transfer for them and if they get Pogba will be the ice on the cake.

If that can't happen, I only hope Barcelona won't win it again because I really hate their play, it makes me want to sleep from the beginning, I only watched 5 minutes of the final this year because of that.

Seriously, how can you claim Barca boring but like Chelsea?

Alot of people say Chelsae's play is boring but I personally like it very much.
About Barca, I like seeing them play, they've got some good teamwork sometimes.
So I can kinda get what Ulquiorra is trying to say.

Always liked Johnson, reminds me of a less spectacular version of Shelvey (which is by no means a bad thing). Great left foot on him.

As for Hazard, he's obviously a very good player, but I disagree with those putting him in the same bracket as Messi, Ronaldo, Suarez, Neymar and Bale. Great pace and feet, but needs to work on his all round play (especially defensively). At least I can say Hazard has done enough to deserve his acclaim unlike that overrated Brazilian cunt over at Liverpool.

Lakaku has had a couple of monster seasons where he looked like he could fill that Drogba void but he doesn't seem to have the right mentality for it long term.

Villa are boring so I don't watch them so I can't really comment on Benteke.

I'd rather have Harry Kane tbh.

Still don't buy it mate. Hazard is the best player in the Premiership yes, but Neymar is Brazil's biggest star, had an arguably better season(and won the treble), and is a year younger.

Coutinho as well...7 million higher than Gotze and Koke? Can you imagine Bayern trading Gotze for Coutinho and putting 7 million on top? I think Liverpool would happily trade Coutinho for Gotze with 15 million on top.

United signed De Gea for 17.8 mil pounds. After countless brilliant games, winning United's player of the year twice in a row, winning pfa goalkeeper of the year, now rated 17.9 mil pounds.

On the other hand, Coutinho worthed more than Bale and many other better players and Henderson made it to top 50.

Courtois should be higher than Sterling imo.

Didn't notice that post. Crazy timing. Unless he's just been waiting for his actual target to give the okay.

I see Bog Sam is the early favourite. I guess that wouldn't be too bad, well, it would probably give you a sore neck.

So, Andre Breitenreiter is our new coach.
That's just another way of saying "fuck you" to Marc Wilmots. He wanted to train us but asked to wait till after Belgiums next match before he makes a decision.
What happened to this club? Why is it lead by such horrible people?
Horst heldt needs to go, as soon as possible.

Not sure about that, I mean it depends on how much control over things like transfers the manager has. If the club are delegating out tasks to take the pressure of the coach then that shouldn't be too bad.

Paul Lambert focused entirely on the first team and didn't really care about other aspects whilst Chris Hughton tried to do everything. Certain aspects of the club suffered in both cases.

I think as long as the board aren't interfering with how the manager wants to run his team then it should be fine. That potential for interfering was what I was actually worried about going into last season as we switched to a similar structure.

Reckon most clubs over here will adopt it soon.
