But surley like Abra said they wouldn't say that Maicon is bigger than Hazard :S

From a bit of googling people think it has something to do with Cavani, again only purely speculation.

When is 6am Barrrett?

Apparalently we've agreed terms with Marsille RB Azpilicueta and his ages are trying to tie things up.

That's more than 8 hours ago.

They didn't say "at 6am" though. They said "from 6am" meaning any time from 6am.

We have been so active this transfer period, even if not completing alot we've been busy in terms of placing bids, getting targets etc. Very very exicted for this season.

I am not sure what to think of Azpilicueta, saw him a few times but never really focused on him. So i can't comment on his quality. But he has been very injury prone and apparently he has tore his ACL a couple of times.

According to an article we've got an agreement with Lens for Thorgan Hazard: http://www.lavoixdunord.fr/sports/thorgan-hazard-va-signer-a-chelsea-et-rejoindre-son-frere-eden-ia0b0n588968

My concern is, if he didn't have the name Hazard on the back of his shirt and was just any other miscellaneous player, would we even be after him? I mean, he plays in the French Second Division ffs. Or is there genuine belief that he could mature into a quality player?

Unfortunately, it seems to me like it's the former, and that the only basis for this transfer is his relation to Eden.

Agreed, never heard of interest before so hope it's not what you've said. He should get loaned back or to another club so we can see how he turns out.

So it looks like it's basically a done deal now. Here's a few pics of them together:

I imagine he'd go on loan or something. Can't really see him staying in the first team, and I doubt we'd shove him down into the reserves.

He'll play reserves. You watch.

He never improved. He has been giving his chance time and time again(albeit on loan). I actually think he took a few steps backward. :facepalm:

How do you think Di Matteo went from WBA to Chelsea? Hours and hours of FM, he's simulated all the way to 2020 where we've won 5 cl's and are the best team in the world.
