Wow, I have no hopes for this particular transfer but are we really looking to make another major signing? Incredible.

We're wasting our time, especially by offering £30m. Would have to be at least £45m for them to even consider. And even then they don't exactly need the money do they? If they want to sell they'll let him go or loan him abroad and there'd be plenty of suitors.


To be fair, you don't start a negotiation at a high price. You negotiate up :D

I think it was Noel Coward who said " Tis better to be a Shark than a massive ****".

Mata sadly won't happen but if it unsettles the Chelsea dressing room then good.

Mata (Chadli) - Soldado (Defoe) - Lamela (Townsend)
Paulinho (Dembele) - Eriksen (Holtby) - Sandro (Capoue)
Contreau (Rose)- Verts (Daws) - Kaboul (Vlad) - Walker (Naughton)
Lloris (Freidel)

Sell: Ade, Gomes, Siggy, Benny, Lennon and a loan for Carroll

I will also accept another premium LWF instead of Mata cause well that aint happening;)

I wouldn't be suprised if Mata might start kicking up a fuss and our bid might just be to unsettle. He's been left out of the recent Spain squad and it's World Cup year. He doesn't want wallow at Chelsea.

Maybe Mata will hand in a transfer request and go on strike lol


From what I've learnt over the course of this summer, all we have to do is get all our staff from Daniel Levy to Granny Smith who does the tea and cakes, plus all the players to say that we want him. Then we just set up a stage at White Hart Lane and wait :)

In all seriousness, am I remembering correctly that Mata was one of the few players who really liked AVB from his time at Chelsea and defended him publicly in a few interviews? Maybe AVB just needs to give him a ring?

Who'd have thought, Mourinho blaming ref and Uefa. He also has a go at "shark" clubs who spend beyond their means in tomorrow's paper

Shark clubs? I'm sorry, I don't ever recall us buying players just for the sake of it so that no one else can get them. The man is suited to that club. Classless.

Can't believe he benched Mata again, didn't even bring him on. It's ludicrous, the guy is the best player they have had for the past 2 seasons.

I would be amazed if we signed Mata, but then I am truly amazed at his transfer window so far so bugger it lets sign him too.

Yep, they were cosy - Mata was very complimentary and defensive of him and (I think) said he'd like to work with him again. Gotta be worth AVB taking ten minutes to give him a quick call...:sneaky:
