    With any luck, or with more luck, Ince doesn't sign! <ok>

    You might have to read my earlier posts. It was a conversation with 'Reverand. you just popped out of nowhere, so you wouldn't have clue. I just mentioned him as an 'alternative' to Coutinho, a player who was interested in joining us and a viable option

    But anyways now that the deal's done and dusted, i'll be rooting for him. Hopefully he'll come good for us.

    I wouldn't mind Ince signing, I'd much prefer to have Ince than Downing. With that said, I'd rather Sterling carry on developing, but, he'll be another good option. We've been complaining about a lack of options all season and now we finally have some depth.

    The only argument is, is it depth for the sake of depth or is it real quality?

    Can't help but think that part of the reason we want Ince is because, unlike Sturridge and Coutinho, he wouldn't be cup tied for the Europa league

    Is Sturridge cup tied? Did he actually play for Chelsea in the Champ league this year?

    You're right he did. But does that cup tie him for Europa? Wasn't Torres allowed to play for Chelsea in Champ League after leaving us even though he played for us in Europa in same season?

    Rumours of Ince or Draxler from Schalke if we cant get him, with possibly Pacheco going to Blackpool

    Rumours of Butland, Brum DESPERATE to sell may accept £3.5m or lower, lfc then loan him back til at least end of season

    Rumours of a CB, and Coates being sold or loaned out, Fazio from Seville and Mirin of Valencienne being looked at . Personally Id look at doing a swap between Assaidi and Alderweireld of Ajax who is gonna be a top player

    Not now Chelsea have dropped in to the Europa, it was a similar situation when we signed Suarez

    What's Draxler like?

    I'd quite like Butland, not to come in and replace Reina straight away but eventually I'd like him too. I feel he's just as good back up as Jones and can only get better.

    Playing in the champions league doesn't affect the Europa.

    I think because they are now in Europa is the problem.

    On the Sturridge/Europa League situation...

    http://www.uefa.com/MultimediaFiles.../Regulations/01/80/06/31/1800631_DOWNLOAD.pdf

    Page 33. Point 18.07.

    I believe Sturridge has played for Chelsea in the Champions League earlier in the season so if that is the case, he wouldn't be able to play for us in our Europa League campaign.

  16. Although I understand where you are coming from and actually agree that we shouldn't be signing any more potential, wasn't pretty much the whole Barca team 'potential' at one point? Obviously they had star players too but most of the current first team came through the ranks together so they must have changed from potential to star players at some point <ok>

    But does that suggest he can't play in the same competition for 2 teams? In which case he would be as he would have played in 2 different competitions?

    As mentioned before Torres played in both the Europa & Champ league in the same season when we sold him to Chelsea. Someone mentioned because Chelsea are now in the Europa it isn't the same but the above doesn't suggest this?

    It's the exact same situation we had with Suarez, I think, because we're both now in the same competition he can't play. When Torres went to Chelsea they were still in the CL.

    Right, i've found a bit more on this which helps explain it all.

    Same link I posted earlier on. Page 35 & points 18.18 & 18.19.

    Point B implies that because Sturridge has played for Chelsea in the Champions League, he isn't eligible for us in the Europa League because Chelsea are now in the Europa League.

    EDIT: Exactly what That Magic Assist By Luis Suarez is saying.

    Ok fair point. Bit of a silly rule to be honest, never did quite understand the cup tied thing. Players don't get "league tied" so why should you prevent them from playing in the cup for their new team?
