"The risk of losing the player is there, but we as a club are prepared for any eventuality.  There is nothing, however [to report at the moment].  The player has renewed his contract and is happy here, plus there is a very high clause.

"We are prepared for a possible replacement, if someone pays the clause."

The player he's talking about is Juan Cuadrado of course, and said buyout clause is rumored to be a meaty €35m

sos kicap

35M? Not that much of a bargain riao. B4 this it was rumored we'll get him for 25m. How much Wolfsburg offering for Schurrle?

oohhh..now it make sense, 1 is in Euro, 1 is in Pound?
Would prefer if Cuadrado replaces Salah. Schurrle.....I really like him as a player. Not that keen to see him leave us.   

Me too.one of the player that i like.just that he not consistent.he always give impact as super sub.and he can replace hazard if anything happen to hazard.we need him but he dont wanna be a benchwarmer

If cuadrado come in,prepare for weird winning celebration guys

City will miss yaya toure very much
We must take his chance

Pure wingers only Hazard and Willian. Salah and Schurrle not enuff game time to prove a point, even when given game time, both did not perform or played well. Hence Mou mcm dun trust them dy. Imho, if both of them is given a consistent run of games, both will be very quality players. But then this is Chelsea, the standard is too high. If u dun perform when given the chance, u wont be in starting 11 or impact sub.

Hope the Cuadrado deal is on and Salah leaves.

I have faith in didier / remy,both have enough quality to do damage vs city. Keep silva and aguero on a tight leash and we're capable of getting goals.

Haha the 'stamp' ruling is such a joke. Violent conduct?lol i've seen nastier stuff being played around local futsal courts for heaven's sake. I have absolutely no problems with the ruling if it was only more consistent and transparent.

Last year we had other teams' players flailing elbows into the faces of opponents,which were deemed innocuous after the FA's useless and selectively stupid review process, which begs the question how exactly do these guys determine what's 'violent' and who are the teams that 'deserve' to be punished.

Even off the back of my head i can recall an incident where costa was elbowed in the face in midair a couple of games ago (iinm),the ref missing it completely and the incompetent FA as usual did nothing about it, for whatever reason.

Everybody knows DC weakness and is not how he play the game, is how he react to the game, so everyone now is getting to him by fouling as much to piss him off.

All the opponents do not have any good strategy and using cheap tactics and victim now is Costa. To be fair, is still a strategy, on the first half it got to CFC with 5 YC and get 1 game off but luckily JM do what he do best, trusting him and let him do what he does best and defending his action.

I'm not going to say more on the campaign as I don't want also get fined / ban for saying it

how about if Jose gamble with Oscar as CM and Hazard AM Schurrle LW and Willian RW..hahaha

Sold players with inflated fee - wrong
Buy new players - wrong
Play beautiful football - wrong
Park the bus - wrong
Won many trophy - wrong

Hahaha pity to noisy neighbours fans

I say we need to bring Pogba next season. Add to the steel in the midfield. But he will not come cheap though. Hope we can win UCL and he will choose us instead of others like Hazard. Lel.

Drab and ugly second half,but i'll take it. Especially after the midweek exertions vs pool.

Trust me,Cuadrado will have an extremely important role when he arrives.

If we sign pogba, cesc confirm play as no 10 roles. Unhappy with oscar contribution tonite. No cesc plus hazard was marked kaw kaw tonite, oscar should step up but he lost. Pity to remy, isolated plus no support and lack of opportunity.
