Higuain

Rumours breaking at the moment that Higuain has agreed to move to Chelsea. 

Wording is a bit funny at the minute so might be that Higuain has agreed to the move but we've still got to come to an agreement with Juventus/AC Milan. 

Some places saying it could be completed today... but that's rarely the case. 

Frustrating to lose Fabregas because we don't offer more than a year extension to current players over 30 and then we look set to sign a player who is 31... 
We offered Cesc a 2 year deal but he wanted more football.

Sarri said the Spaniard, whose Chelsea deal expires at the end of this season, has received a two-year contract offer.

"In my opinion, he needs to go," said Sarri.

"In this club there is a rule - the renewal for players over 30 is usually one year. I don't want a very important player like Cesc to be unhappy."

I interpreted that as Sarri saying Cesc has received a 2 year offer from another club (Monanco) so we're not standing in his way because we can't what's on offer. 

 
I read something that he was going to come to us on loan, Morata has also been linked with AC. So wouldnt be surprised if its all linked in some way.

Could be I just assumed it was us.

I wouldn't be paying any large fee for a player over 30 especially a striker who's on decline like Higuaín.

A loan option would be best like Falcao.

Would be realistic in that Morata needs to rejuvenate his career and a place he has been successful before would be his best bet.

A swap loan would be favourable for both and reassess in the Summer. 

 
loan deal would be okay. Hope we don't spend any actual money though, there's no telling how well he will adapt at 31.

you got it...

and it was actually 3.5 years from Monaco, and definitely more time on the pitch.

 
No worry we might be stuck with him if we don't get Higuain

50m for Wilson? Jesus...

If we get Higuain in on loan, and he bags around 15 goals, with us finishing 4th or 3rd then that’s top business by Chelsea.

If we sign him for a decent fee, say 20m then he’d make a very good second choice striker from next season.

We really should be aiming higher than a slightly-better-than-mediocre English striker from a mid table team

For 40 Million more we could activate Icardi's 90 million buyout clause. That's the equivalent of selling Moses, Zappa and Cesc

Even 10 goals in half a season would be a big improvement on what we have.

Wilson isn't a prolific GS. He always gets injured as well, no way should the club be paying 50m for a striker who hasn't scored over 9 league goals in the PL. He's had one good scoring season 

Icardi would be my choice and maybe a morata plus cash swap deal. 

Its annoying me also that sarri wants huiguian.

I think it would be a poor decision to buy Higuain. We don't need a 30+ Argentinian with no experience in England.

I would much rather spend the money on Andy Carroll. He could form quite the partnership at the top with Giroud. Two tall front men who should be able to actually get on the end of a ball when played in. We need more direct play.
