Looks like players want to play for spurs over Chelsea at the moment, aurier, Barkley and now llorente want spurs. I think players know they will be messed around and won't hardly play at Chelsea like ox chamberlain.

Llorente wants Conte but our board are penny pinching! Aurier is a good player but an absolute nutjob, Barkley is Ox M. II lots of potential but little end product.

Raver, what a load of tosh! Where do you get your info? None of those mentioned have even signed for Spurs - did Chels even have an interest in Aurier? Barkley is out til Christmas and may still sign for us; Llorente will sign for us if we match Tottenham's offer. Get a grip, lad.

Liverpool fan not here to gloat or be a pr*ck but it must be a new thing for you guys, lukaku, AOC, maybe llorente, to chose another side and not just for money, what are your thoughts? Obviously transfers are all unique so it's not a case of 'Chelsea got snubbed' but what actually is the case then? Is it a difference in how you guys now approach transfers? My worry for Chelsea this year is the fact your squads even thinner with CL to deal with?

JohnBarnes, AOC chose Liverpool over us because he wants to play centre-mid and wants game time - at Chels he would have been a squad player getting splinters in his backside. Chelsea had no interest in Lukaku - paper talk. Llorente will sign for us if we match the Spurs offer.
{Ed001's Note - that is not true, Ox chose Liverpool because he wanted to join his boyhood club, nothing to do with playing positions at all.}

The lukaku one for sure I'm happy we never ended up with him. And I'm sure conte always wanted morata over him. The ox, I was actually a bit annoyed, perfect utility player. But all honesty I don't see where he would have ever played. He's no Pedro, Willian or hazard. And Moses is doing a great job at rwb. As for him wanting to play midfield that was never going to happen at Chelsea. If he's going to play their for Liverpool, I'd be very surprised. Llorente I actually really want, he's getting on a bit but, I'm so unsure of batshuayi I think we need him. You can play till your 35 in his style of play. Hoping he chooses us if we bid.
It's good players are choosing football over money though.

If you follow Ed002, Lukaku was never rejoining us.

Cfcforever, Lukaku had an agreement with Chelsea we just continued to penny pinch. Our own incompetence.
{Ed001's Note - that is not true, there was never a bid from Chelsea for him.}
