    Hazard will be off to Real Madrid or City.

    His interview with Gabby Logan made it so obvious he was on his way out.

    Oh we have dross, no question, we do have quality too. Just not as much as we had last year.

    It's a strange one tbh. Chelsea buying people like Drinkwater and Barkley and expect to improve.

    Without CL football and Hazard going you'll need to be very shrewd in the transfer market and recently you've been anything but that - that must be a worry?

    Mate our recent transfer activity has been ****e, no question and yes, those signings you've mentioned are dross. Worried? Nah I've seen a lot worse times than these and I don't worry about things that are beyond my control. We've been out of Europe before and made no difference. Too much is made of the CL imo.

    I actually really like the Europa league so yeah I agree too much is made of the CL.

    Some players (dickheads) will only join CL clubs though which is a shame.... unless you throw serious cash at them. A lot will depend on which manager you get if Conte does leave.

    All of the top clubs will likely improve their squad depth, which will be a worry for Arsenal.

    The most annoying transfer rumour that could turn into a drawn out saga for me is Neymar who is ‘desperate’ to leave PSG to improve his chances of winning the ballon d’or. You were desperate to join them last summer for the same reason last summer and tied yourself into a 5 year contract.......****ing idiot <doh>

    It's a boring story. Hope he stays in France and wins **** trophies for the rest of his career.

    Yeah me too, teach players who are just chasing the money by signing big contracts. I saw an article on sky sports with Rivaldo speaking about that and Coutinho actually. He was asked if Coutinho will regret moving from Liverpool if they win the CL and he said no as Coutinho played in the group stage and will consider himself a champion and get a medal. If I was a Liverpool fan I’d think **** that

    Coutinhos medal won't mean **** all if we win it. Let him have it but him and everyone will know it's a load of bollocks.

    We won't win anyway but **** him if we do!

    It would be funny though as he left for the big-time and the club he left won the biggest cup of all!!

    Wasn’t Ross Barkley in full kit after Chelsea’s win the other day? Would like to see Coutinho on the sidelines with his shin pads on ready to do a Terry.

    Neymar is a complete pansy, I know the rumours are probably bollocks but if he comes here then we deserve to be laughed at when he turns out to be another Di Maria fairy boy.

    You could do with a right-footed player on the left though. That’s probably the final piece of the puzzle.

    Yeah we don't have enough of those. 3 more should do it.

    Agree entirely (although I wouldn’t rule out you winning it)
