Ed001, got a question on Eden. Chelsea in the past have shown a willingness to allow players to move on that really want to leave.
Now everyone's been saying that Eden desperately wants Madrid, but if that's true then I doubt he'd still be at Chelsea. Would you happen to know whether Eden was pushing for a move? Or was it more that he's certainly open to playing for Madrid, but that he's happy at Chelsea as well?
Thanks for the hard work on the site, man. Much appreciated.
{Ed001's Note - Madrid never bid for him, so he never had much choice mate. He would jump at the chance to join them and spent the summer dropping hints about it.}

Hmm just as well then. If they're not that interested he might as well sign that shiny new contract at Chelsea.
Cheers, Ed :)
{Ed001's Note - exactly mate, but Madrid still have time to come in, their window is open.}

I think with the Courtois deal we’d of told them not to bid hazard, his not available and a bid would only unsettle him and the offer would be refused anyway.
{Ed001's Note - from what Ed002 has explained it was more that they didn't want to lose Asensio.}

We've demanded Asensio in every potential deal.

Isn't it time that TBO shut the f*** up in his 'Come and join me' to Eden.
I also read that as well as being a figure of intense dislike in West London, he ain't going down too well in Madrid. Atletico fans are on his back for joining Real and the Real fans are on his back for his childish anti-Real rants while at Atletico. Hey ho, you can't win them all!
{Ed0333's Note - a few clean sheeets and the fans will be singing his name. Football fans are fickle.

Surely Madrid know that Eden's potential price has just gone up even more after the PL window has shut. Maybe a deal in advance for next summer then?
I like the fact we want to include Asensio in any deal they make. That would make sure we get our replacement for sure.
