Im sure some people on here took the piss when I suggested we might get over 30 million for Schurrle Salah and Cech.
I like him but hes clearly not a top level player, but handy to have as a squad player. Him Schurrle and Cech are the players we have to fund new signings right now. We should be looking at 60m-70m for all 3.

This Cuadrado may not work for Mourinho. He's known to be lazy in tracking back and taking random long shots. They may want to use him on the right side and use Willian centrally competing with Oscar, but I have doubts whether Cuadrado can be as disciplined as Willian there.

Really? I must admit I've only seen him a handful of times, but from what I read one thing everyone mentions is his work rate.

I thought that was one of his main traits too. He started off as a RWB so I can see why Mourinho would want him - pace, skill, direct, workrate, versatile and can defend.

It's true he works hard but he's inconsistent. He can be slow going back to defend because he's so attack-oriented, which is why I find he may have a different role to the workhorse Willian is.

Hmmm I must have meant schurrle only, got mixed up. Either way we could probably get 20m for Cech and 15 m for Salah, which with Schurrle is over 60 m.

Nobody will pay 20 mil for a 32 yr old keeper, you be lucky to get 1/2 that

Spurs are up next against Fiorentina in the EL, so them losing a star player should help our chances.

He looked like a really really good dribbler from the clips of him I saw when we were rumoured to be imterested. That's about all I know about him.

He looks like someone who walks down the beach trying to sell you knock off Ray bans and a Rolex.

He wanted to go to a club in the Champions League. We're not.
I dont think that was the case. He was willing to go to Barca or us over the summer but no one was serious to buy him.
He is not having a great season and his value plummeted to £26M, for that price, he is worth a gamble and Chelsea went for it.
I think for he price we should have been in for him, but something tells me Woodie/LVG have serious summer targets and they didnt want to rock the boat.

Why not 30m for Salah? 15 seems too low for such a talent... :houllier:

If you guys manage to sell feckin Salah on a profit.....
