CHELSEA WANT CANCELO

Chelsea are interested in signing Joao Cancelo from Valencia, according to Sky sources.

They scouted him extensively when he was playing for Portugal at the European Under 21 Championship and watched him again in pre-season.

So it looks like it wont be Cancelo for us then. I thought Chelsea might have gone for Aurier instead.

That's frustrating.

I would rather they focus on him than diao imo

Indeed. Now Keita Balde is looking more real I'm really concerned they are going to do us on that one. Especially with Conte throwing his toys out of the pram on top of their usual screw spurs mentality.

personally reckon conte being a prick about it will mean hes less accepting of being given players for the childish boardroom games. He seems to want certain players and simply isn't budging by the sounds of it.

There's an interesting article in The Guardian today where Trips talks about his role this season. He comes across as really grounded and makes an intriguing comment about the need to rotate full backs in Poch's system. We're not buying a development player; I think we're after a quality RB that doesn't diminish our system when we rotate

It's a shame Walker didn't understand that. He'd probably still be here if he did.

If he's Chelsea's target then it makes no sense why a rich club would wait this late to express an interest. This story, which is coming from a legit paper with details about scouting, sounds like agents trying to move the deal.

I'm actually more encouraged now that there is reported "interest" from the money club.

There are also stories floating around that Conte is "ordering" the club to get Danny Rose. I think a lot of this is just rapid speculation because they have not managed to get their targets, whatever those may be.

Rich clubs sign players late in the transfer window every season. It's quite possible that Chelsea have missed out on a player and moved targets.

Yeah they were told by juve that Sandro is not for sale, but they have zero chance of getting rose. It's probably made up shit anyway just to create a story. Boring as the dier shite we have seen all summer

Yep, they've got no chance of getting Rose.

I think Chelsea and Conte's strategy is so transparent, they will simply bid for any player we might be remotely interested in, whether they want him or need him, and in doing so they will try to cut off any supply of players in the transfer market, in the hope that we end up with no-one.

From my little snippet of information, the chavs are not the desired destination of many, and that is growing.
