Wondering if we are making a nuisance on this one in response to them getting involved on Barkley. Both teams back out of respective deals and we have a stronger position negotiating for Barkley.

Or Chelsea just flex their dirty money and get both...

This IMO would be a great signing, gives us something totally different off the bench and he can still find the net. I would have no problem with this.

Interestingly guilleme ball bag is saying that we have currently put more money on the table.

Chelsea are actually known for being strict on deals for 30+ players. Short contracts etc...

I would like this one. To me, he may be older but hes experienced at the highest level, his style of play doesn't rely on youth and he simply scores goals (also a bloody nuisance). Would be a great late game option to mix it up and I imagine Son would remain first choice reserve in a lot of games. More importantly, it would be a 'clever' way to solve the back up debate as he would probably be content in that role.

Still doesn't seem likely and would understand if people were underwhelmed (I would be too unless 2 others joined).

Would he take a wage cut to sit on our bench? Surely Chelsea's bench and maintaining his current wage is preferable?

15 PL goals with ex-Spurs players around. Better chance of success than Janssen IMO.
Crochy scoring PL goals at 36. Age is not my concern given he has decent fitness.

At 15 or so mill it is a bargain, would be happy being kane's backup and not on silly wages like benteke

Makes Fazio look like a 100m sprinter. Doesn't suit the system, doesn't suit the style of play, doesn't suit the club's transfer strategy, doesn't suit anything.

For that reason, I'm out.

What is it...2011? Might as well go for Giuseppe Rossi, at least he's a free agent.
