first hazard, now oscar, this is getting embarrasing :(
Hardly. 99% of player chase the money. Just the way it is and nothing wrong with it. Not always the best move for them, playing-wise but meh. We don't have the money. We miss out on most targets as a result.

Chin up mate. We still get some good'uns.

Really? It's embarrassing that the bunch of cheating bastards from the other side of London operate a completely unsustainable business model and insist on using a murdering, tax-avoiding thug’s money to outbid us on players they know we are targeting. It’s not us that should be embarrassed, it’s FIFA, UEFA and football in general. ‘Financial Fair Play’, my arse.

If they bring in Ossie as manager he could probably fit all of their attacking mids into the first team. They don't need Oscar, another 'club signing'.

Bale and Lennon would have a field day against a team like that, we could see some high scoring games against them this season!​

I'm surprised they haven't thrown their money at a player like De Rossi as Essien is no longer the same player and Lampard is getting on. No, buy another attacking midfielder for 25 mill. Madness

Meh. Couldn't care less who Roman Abramovich FC buy next or what honours they buy. It's all hollow, and the best thing about it, no matter how much their fans protest and say it isn't, when they go home and think about it, they know full well anything they "achieve" in the game is down to their sugar daddy's billions.

Our resident Brazil boy said £20m was far too much for this kid. Good enough for me.

De Rossi is different to the average player. Born in Rome, plays for HIS club. He is the next Totti.
Any links that surface regarding him are always around contract renewal time. He is never leaving Roma.

You forgot Ramires who was probably their best player last season. Say he plays in place of Essien in that team though - he'll have a similar fight on his hands to what Parker did for us for most of last season and I think it'll be too many fires to put out. They lack strength in depth in defence too - indeed their central defence just isn't very good full stop!
