10 goals a season is very good for a #10 type. He's better than James at Madrid with 25% the hype.

Except, no he isn't.

Yeah he really isn't, James scores and assists 30-40 goals per season, double coutinhos best total

Lots of contrasting itk already, going to be a long summer.

Would really be a great start if we sign someone before the euros!!

30-40 assists per season?!

he has 7 goals and 8 assists in 26 la liga matches. decent return, but nothing near 30-40 assists per season.

I said scores and assists 30-40 goals per season. This season he dropped out of favour badly when the waiter left

Certainly agreed on salary - which was better than West Ham's offer. This deal has been in the offing as far back as March. Player visited Spurs around that time, too.

Found this in the Batshuayi thread. Dont know the poster though

Under normal circumstances I wouldn't post this type of thing on here, but there has been a lot of discussion about so called ITK on Mason's injury today. Somewhere along these lines. May well be a pile of crap and I may need to bend over :inpain:, but this may be of interest. http://imgur.com/a/InZxP

A 'friend' of Mason's family.

I'm ashamed that those people are associated with our great club, they're a disgrace.

We all have our opinions on who should and shouldn't be in the team or at the club and places like this are a forum for such discussions, but those messages (to one of our own, non the less) are a disgrace to the club and to the real fans... Bill Nic would be turning in his grave.

If that's how you want to behave p!ss off and support Chelsea

Not really sure what I'm reading here...Coutinho being a better player than James, James getting 30-40 goals and assist per season :confused:

Just catching up on the ITK, didn't realise the forum was open, most interesting bit for me is about Poch going mental after Sunday - i believe him when he said he learned a lot from that shambles.

On the ins, my preference is for Embolo but the little i have seen of Michy, he would be a good option too - very different from Kane which is what we need albeit we'll need to improve service into the box. Think he'll be our marquee signing followed by a couple of Toby type purchases of quality players but for reasonable money.

Just now reading the latest ITK after the weekend's mess.

Most of our transfer business done before the Euros? I will very much believe that when I see it.

Doubt we'll see any signings before 15 August, except possibly a free agent (Dembele). It's just the way it works.

With Poch's intense pre-season, you get the sense it's particularly important for us to get them in early. We have guaranteed cL revenue with us in at the group stage so from our end the ingredients are there. If the NUFC defeat had any benefit, it hopefully demonstrated how lucky we were not to get serious injuries to any of our first XI. Hopefully Levy will back the manager early but we say this every summer!

Good point, although I do expect some very strong links to come out. The Southampton clearout all started before the 2014 WC, and whilst most deals went through after, the vast majority did (all but the ones to Spurs naturally).

Except it isn't, though.

Last summer, Wimmer (29 May), Trippier (19 June) and Alderweireld (8 July) all arrived before August.

It's a seller's market after Euro/WC. Ask Arse how they feel about Arshavin. Drumming up a bidding war is what inflates prices. A team might lose 10% value in a player who flops in a tournament, but can gain 30-40% value with a good tournament. The reward far exceeds the risk as a seller.
