Any interest in verrati from psg or draxler @ shalke?

Verrati would be a great signing. Ed002 said on real Madrid page that isco is available, I think we should definitely try to sign isco and if not gotze who looks like he might be available as well. If necessary a new cb can wait as hopefully baba will start pushing dave to rb which means if necessary we could play ivanovic at cb.

There's interes in Verrati from Real Madrid(PSG asking price is a problem).
Juventus is interested in Draxler.

I would love Verratti but I think there would be a lot of competition if he was available. Isco would be our David Silva but I don't think he's Mourinho's type of player unfortunately (see Mata!).

Totally agree about Veratti, if he is available we should be all over that. He is a proper little midfield general, especially as he is young, he is great battler and leads by example, and another player everyone hates unless he plays for your club. I know it appears roman is willing to open the purse strings I hope griesman(prob spelt wrong) could be bought. Add stones and it would be all good.
I am sorry spearce96, but why would we move the worst player on the pitch for the last two games to cb. I have always been a big fan of ivanovic, but his days are numbered I feel this will be his last season and only as a squad player. The reason being both games we have been totally exposed on that side of the pitch. Move Dave to rb, baba lb and if stones arrives phase him and zouma to cb by end of season. We have to prepare for life without jt. Plus that will give us real pace at the back.

Andrew I know bi hasn't been playing well but don't think he will be leaving. With jt, cahil and zouma I think having bi as cover when he won't need to do so much running should be OK and the other areas are much more pressing (cm and rw)

Verratti would fit in perfectly with us. Both in style and in terms of being hated. Everybody likes to hate Chelsea and a lot of people can't stand Verratti. Seems like a match made in heaven :)

I think we need English players, that's why the prem is lacking soul, the world comes here for money. Look how well they play for their national teams and rubbish for their clubs, and the exact opposite with English players, great for their clubs rubbish for England
