Willian

There's a lot of football to be played, we have a lot of good players... it will work.

Just need strikers!

I don't go with this need for more depth, blimey in that position we're about as deep as we could get!

 
I guess Anzhi really don't want to keep paying Eto'o wages 

 
Such a bizarre signing.

This is either going to be a terrible signing or an incredible one. I'm still convinced Juan Mata is going nowhere but I can understand why people are getting slightly nervous about his future here. I have a suspicion that Manchester United are going reject our third bid for Wayne Rooney only to come back on deadline day and make an offer of a Rooney <> Mata swap.

Call it a hunch, I think that's how it will go down.

If it came to that I would refuse to let Mata go, sign Eto'o and use him as our backup after Torres and Lukaku.

No matter how much people may want Rooney here he is not worth us losing Mata to our biggest title competitor.

Welcome to Chelsea Football Club  Willian 

 
Jose clearly wanted him so we have to trust him.

He said Mata isn't leaving so that's the end of that because Jose doesn't go back on his words as far as I can remember.

Moses and Ba will be loaned or sold.

I agree, it's the one position that we couldn't conceivably become any stronger in.

Mata will never go..Havent u head all Chelsea fans ( including me )   Hes owners favourite player..He will never goo 

 
Never say never when it comes to Chelsea, and Mourinho.

If he wants Rooney really really badly and if he plans to play Willian with Oscar and Hazard then you never know, especially if our 35m offer gets rejected.

 
True, he is easily the most universally liked Chelsea player since Zola.

However, look at this from Manchester United's perspective.

  1. Manchester United are badly hurting for playmaker and midfield maestro.
  2. Juan Mata has seen very little action since the start of the season, and before the window closes people will inevitably start asking questions no matter what the top brass say on the matter.
  3. As I said above Juan Mata is loved by our fans and respected deeply by all of our rivals (even if they will not openly admit it), any club in the league would flock like bees to honey if they even suspected that Mata might be appearing on the market.
  4. He would be the major signing David Moyes needs, especially after the Fabregas disaster.

Feel a little sorry for Moses had a real good pre season his first for the club and then is almost dumped. Not the best message to send out to our players! I just hope we don't start playing players out of their preferred position just to get names on the park. Example, Mata on the right!

 
Jose cares about the fans and he knows that almost all Chelsea fans love Mata and would that we would rather see anybody else leave. Also, as Jose said, he wants to add quality, not lose quality and selling Mata would be certainly losing a lot of quality.

mata on the right was an experiment (doomed to fail, yet one mou wanted to examine) and nothing else. i figure JM saw that the little spanish magician (for me there's one 'little magician' and that is zola) is not fit to play at the right wing.

 
Do you know that for sure? Do you watch the Russian league on a regular basis then?

Sorry if that comes across as facetious , I'd just like to see evidence of a decline, the only thing i can see that may point to it is his age.

Yes, he's been a bit of a twat towards us before but he's also been brilliant against us too.

Lets not forget we didn't want Ashley Cole either. A few goals and we'll be happy. As a short term stop gap I think it would be an awesome signing and he will improve our centre forward options massively.
