All quiet on the Eastern front ??? WTF is happening ?? Watched Japan vs' Oz last night, and Shinji Nagata had a stonking match, as did some other Japanese kid with bleached blonde hair in midfield. He was really good, which cannot be said for the Saudi Ref. Holy Guacamole, you would never complain about PL refs if you could see the clowns prancing around impersonating refs in the Asian League.
RDM apparently due to sign this week. Hulk gone a bit quiet. Knowing Chelsea we will wait till the 11th hour!!
They're waiting for RDM to return from his holiday in the USA sometime later this week to make an announcement! The Hulk deal is getting there. We have agreed personnal terms, but there's still some bargaining going on between the clubs over the transfer fee! They want £40m and we're offering £30m. I hate stating the obvious but we'll wait a week and find we've shaken hands on £35m!
As always, thanks for the update. I must admit I'm getting a little edgy about Hulk. It seemed impossible because of the money, but now i am definitely seeing him as a big gain for us. No mucking about, strong, straight for goal player with a real knack of scoring. Just what the doctor ordered. Though not like Drogba, a big intimidating bastard is not too shabby to have, especially with the skills this geezer has.
I'm with you on this CP, a class player no doubt but I'm worried we're goung to pay over the odds for him!

Thats an interesting update Londons only... I think this is another situation where an agent is manouvering things to get his greedy little hands on loadsamoney!
You wont get a bargain where Porto are concerned. Remember they got about 36 million for Falcao last year. Hulk wont be any cheaper especially with a 3 year contract and 80 million buy out. However if Modric is worth 40 (he aint but that's what Roman was prepared to pay), then Hulk is worth similar money. The guy would be electric in the premier league, is strong, fast, scores and provides. We also need a proper right sided forward and he wants to come. This deal surely must happen.
That is very good news for all of us. Let's hope he continues on from last season. And thanks for all the news, you guys are better than Google !!!!!!
I hope Robbie has the balls to blood some youngsters - in the correct environment of course. Bosingwa & Kalou gone, hopefully Malouda, Paulo, Meireles, Turnbull & Hilarious to follow!
Not so sure about Mireiles! I think he's got something to give! The others have done their service, but time to move on!
Can't agree with Meireles mate, I think his passing is atrocious & that's what he's there for. I'd much rather have Josh in the squad.
