Gregory van der Wiel just tweeted that he's on his way to London. Any idea where he's off to?

Tbh, José, Carroll, Nolan and Barton were all central to our comfortable season last year. This is asking a LOT from the new players.

+ untold agent fees, of course, wages, cost of the flight over and hotel. And meals. So...£35m?

Tioté Cabaye Marveaux Ben Arfa Jonas More potential than we've fielded for years. brewcie, is that you? No, I'd like to field a striker as well. I think the question was aimed at me, and yes, that would be me. I was going to put Ba in up front, but then I thought of Bent. It brought up a lot of memories, so I went straight to bed instead.

I think he's shit. By far the worst player Chelsea have.

He was on trial last week and scored two goals. 20 years old and been in loads of their youth national teams.

Because no club has ever had to sell a key player before in the history of sport right? Brest are like Wigan in the sense that they are one of the weakest sides in the league that depend on one or two players to perform week in week out. Roux is one of these players. If they sell him, and don't bring a replacement in, they'll probably go down. We'll have to pay top dollar for him. But he had a realease clause didn't he? Not much choice then.

More than I thought we'd spend on a left back. Most expensive signing for quite some time.

Best lost the header for the goal.

Simpson needs Barton in front of him, that's why he looked decent last season.

Vuckic has worked his socks off

SAMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT A GOAL!!!!

This ref...

Class touch from Best

Looks superb. Can't wait to see him with a fully fit Tioté and Ben Arfa.

Couldn't agree more. Probably have Vuckic ahead of Gosling, gives so much more to the team.

Play best team to win comfortably Fail and have everyone playing 120 mins

Best finishing backwards

Now Sammy has done more than Ba and Löven's done all game

Gosling and Simpson looking like Conference players

Subs now Pardew, please.

Back to hoofing

Even worse than the one on Cabaye

Haha lövenkrands
