- They went to pot when Ake left. - Begovic is an instant upgrade to Boruc. There's not really much of an argument to make against it.

"Come & join us, Ryan. Here's a massive pay rise and a lovely recaro seat on our bench."

http://thesun.uk/60168WA3E They will be so much stronger with Ake & Begovic onboard.

Indeed. The original link to city came about because they were quoted £40m for Mendy so preferred Bertrand as he'd be cheaper. There's no way he should be worth half of Kyle Walker.

Just seen a price of £25m mentioned. Ridiculous.

From sam Wallace article in the telegraph: LOL.

Welcome Mauricio. If he beats San Pellegrino Lemon as my favourite Pellegrino, he'd have done a great job.

Has anyone reputable over here backed up that story?

Hope it's true just to see the Merseyside Meltdown

Sometimes...

Chelsea stockpile so much talent, we could probably pick a player from every position.

Can we make it £50m+ Ake? They've probably got a fair few players I'd be happy to take off their hands, to be honest.

Antonio Conte tells Chelsea he wants Leonardo Bonucci or Virgil van Dijk - @Matt_Law_DT http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2017/06/22/antonio-conte-tells-chelsea-wants-leonardo-bonucci-virgil-van/

DE BOER SET FOR PALACE Sky sources understand Crystal Palace are set to appoint Frank De Boer as their new manager. The Dutchman has been offered the job and talks are at an advanced stage. Palace have been looking for a manager since Sam Allardyce resigned last month. Former Ajax, Barcelona and Rangers defender De Boer has been out of work since he lost his job at Inter Milan in November last year.

Leicester plan £25m move for Man City striker Kelechi Iheanacho, reports @JPercyTelegraph http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2017/06/21/leicester-plan-25m-move-man-city-striker-kelechi-iheanacho/ We should be all over this deal.

SSN: Tammy Abraham close to loan move to Swansea.

If you think of our criteria, the manager we want is basically another Pochettino - Only that coach doesn't exist. As regards to the Telegraph article: I'm surprised we are actively pushing the fact that Les/Ross choose most of the players. We pretty much know that anyway, but I've seen it mentioned a few times in reports.

It is. Who mentioned him 1st on here?
