Q1: no.. we're missing a CDM and a striker.
Q2: imo Sonogo is our best signing.. he's our oldest signing anyway =P
Q3: L.Bender. I honestly think Higuain won't help much.
Q4: we still haven't sold our top players this summer :D

Q4: we still haven't sold our top players this summer :D
A1: Liverpool have purchased 4 players already but they still need a 2nd CDM and a strong, reliable CB.
A2: In my opinion it was Kolo Touré, strong, reliable and experienced.
A3: I was really excited about the Mkhitaryan rumour but it looks like BVB has snatched him up :(. I am really hoping LFC sings Alderweireled and Wanyama.
Wanyama is the type of CDM LFC really needs. He is strong, can hold the ball and really spread the ball. As for Alderweireld he looks really promising but I would have prefered K. Papad. over him.
A4: We haven't sold Suarez yet and I really hope he stays with us
I only know that Chelsea is ready to win 6 trophies with that players .
1) No, we are missing a good goalkeeper and a solid center back who can defend us from set pieces.
2) Neymar £50... complete waste so none. Should have just promoted a few from the B team.
3) Luiz/Silva/Agger/Koscielny to Barcelona
4) The fact that Messi and Neymar will be lethal :)
1) NO. We are SO not ready. We better sign Higuain already this saga is seriously getting on everyone's nerves. And I'm starting to think that it won't happen. We need Higuain, or another world class striker, a CDM, bender or fellaini, and julio cesar. These three signings would make sense and would make us strong contenders in the league.
2) Well our only first team signing so far is sanogo. So no comment...
3) Higuain, Bender/Fellaini, Julio Cesar.
4) Our final run to the season, 26points out of 30, and we haven't sold any of our starting 11 players so far.
1) We're ALMOST ready. What we need now is a good replacement for Alonso when he's tired or injured. :)
2) Buying Carvajal. :D
RB is our biggest weak spot. Cost us the game against Dortmund REALLY bad, as 3 of their 4 goals came from breaks down the right defensive flank.
3) I hope we buy Illaramendi. A good replacement for Alonso.
4) Best news I've received yet is that we've signed two promising young SPANISH players. :)
And we might be on our way to a third. :D
1) Nearly ready for the season. We're missing a proper CDM (Here's hoping De Rossi signs) and a CB to partner with Luiz. Also a backup GK
2) Van Ginkel. We haven't had a deep lying/box to box midfielder like him in years! It's great to see that finally has been solved
3) I'm hoping the De Rossi rumor is true. Hoping for Kalas to be promoted to the first team instead of a new CB. Also, hoping we get John Ruddy. @Alex: Why would you want Benteke when we have Lukaku (who is probably better) o.O.
4) The return of Mourinho of course!
Q1) no... we need ti sign a CM and CDM
Q2) Wilfried Zaha
Q3) Thiago, Strootman and Baines
Q4) Moyes says he's ready to buy players which will make United stronger.
1) Nope, we need strikers. We STILL need strikers. Depth in wingers would help too.
2) Paulinho, clearly. Very, very excited about our midfield. :D Also! (thanks to Foota reminding me) we signed Baldini as our new DoT. Very good business.
3) Benteke, Halilovic (for the future), Negredo
4) Making it clear to Madrid that Bale is going nowhere. Keeping AVB despite megabucks being offered in France.
@mladen, Where are your answers! lol :)
@Vendetta, I have no idea why most Chelsea fans think that we need a CB at the moment. We have Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Luiz & Ake. We don't need a CB. as for Benteke because we need a striker and he is really a talented and skillful player and very underrated. :)
@Everyone, you all have a good point! I enjoyed reading everyone's answers and opinion on their team which sums up all the latest news about the club and your thoughts :)
@Alex:
1) Ake is most likely going on loan, Terry is getting too old to play every game (or even last 90 minutes), Ivanovic needs to cover Dave for the RB spot because Paulo is gone now and Cahill isn't really a Chelsea starter. So that leaves us with 3 CBs. That's why I'm hoping we promote Kalas or Omeuro instead of buy a CB. Both play RB and CB so they can cover Dave while Ivanovic takes the CB spot.
2) I'm sorry if your offended by this, but I find your reason for wanting Benteke is a horrible reason. Lukaku is just as skilled and talented, probably even better!
@ALEXBATAK: first off, GREAT THREAD! I'm liking it so far but we wish he had more fans from different clubs!
@Dynastian: If I may, I think you should add...
Q2 - that they picked a good replacement for Mourinho. Ancelotti has a great CV, is great at instilling harmony, and is a classy man.
Q4- That it is unlikely CR7 will leave.
@KingHenry: agree with most of what you've said.
@LODATZ: You guys are signing Halilovic? Are you sure? I thought we were in for him in early May... but I haven't heard anything since. If you guys sign him I'm going to be jealous. He looks the real deal.
@Vendetta: The more I hear about this Van Ginkel kid the more I worry. Some Dutch journo even had the audacity to say that he's modeled his game after the God of midfield... Dennis Bergkamp 10. If he ever reaches anywhere remotely near those ambitions... the rest of the league should shit their collective pants.
@Ihaveabbc: I thought your answer was very honest and well thought out. Couldn't agree more. One question though... how do u use the money if suarez leaves? will you need a new CF or would u rather use it to get upgraded tranfer targets eleswhere?
@Vendetta
It's not sure that we will send Ake on a loan this season. and I like the way Cahill plays. However, promoting Kalas would be a good idea :)
As for Benteke We need a striker in case Mourinho change the system to play 2 strikers which is most likely to happen *Not to replace Lukaku* I think you got me wrong there :)
@Foota Thanks mate, I was waiting to read your answers and opinion regarding Arsenal though. :)
@Alex: I don't think Mourinho prefers to use 2 strikers upfront. If he did, we have Schurrle to back Torres and Ba up along with Lukaku. Spending over 20 million quid for Benteke though, isn't really the best idea.
@Foota: Yeah, all the journos think he is the next big thing to come out of the Dutch youth, so he could turn out to be something big!
@Foot: a gazillion sites were saying that we're hashing out a deal with Dinamo Zagreb for both Halilovic and Jedvaj for a combined fee of about 17m pounds. Basically, at first it was confirmed by Dinamo that a deal was all but done, with an unnamed club, and the Croatian media then exploded declaring it was Spurs.
Days later, that too was confirmed by Dinamo. So, we'll see, but by the gods do I want this to happen!
Addendum: if it does happen, the signs are that we'll loan him back to Zagreb for another year, so he can develop.
OK @ALEX, here's my answers for Arsenal (even though most of you are probably bored of it by now):
Q1- ABSOLUTELY NOT. We've completed sweet F*ck all in terms of acquisitions. We need 1 experienced GK, 1 WC CDM, and 1 great strikers just to even fathom us being ready. If I were greedy I'd say another FW/CAM would help as well.
Q2- Best things the club have done so far is a] doing a good job of finally cutting off our deadweights (Denilson, AA, Squillaci, Mannone, Djourou =done; Bendtner, Chamakh, Park, & Gervinho. b] our marketing team finally closing some lucrative sponsorship contracts
Q3- I don't know anymore what's realistic and what's not. I will echo @kingHenry in that what I'd like would be to get Julio Cesar, L Bender or De Rossi (both seem unrealistic), and a Higuain.
Q4 - the only thing that'd make me optomistic is if we made some f***ing siginings early enough to give them time to gel!
@Lodatz: shit... where have I been? dunno much about that jedvaj fella but hallilovic will be one hell of a signing. Sigh...
^^ I know nothing about Jedvaj except what YouTube tells me, but he looks good for a 17-year old defender:
That is all I can find, so your guess is as good as mine, but apparently Baldini (our new director of football) has wanted him for a long while now, and was planning to bring him to Roma. To me he looks very Vertonghen-esque.

Q1: Do you think your club is ready for the next season right now? If not, then what is missing?
Q2: What is the most good signings or decisions your club made so far?
Q3: What are the transfer rumors that gave you hope for an amazing successful season and still are realistically might happen?
Q4: As a supporter of your club, what news made you feel happy and optimistic?

A1: No, We still need a clinical finisher ST, a CDM and a second GK. to be complete.
A2: Andre Schurrle, Marco Van Ginkel. Recalling Romelu Lukaku and Kevin De Bruyne from loan and Giving a new contract to Frank Lampard.
A3: (ST) Well I'm kinda a bit disappointed with not signing neither Falcao nor Cavani although I still think that they are overpriced and it's good we didn't sign them *maybe not*.. anyways, I'm still hoping to sign either Robert Lewandoski or Christian Benteke. Benteke has been linked with a move to 6 clubs which are Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs, Dortmund, Liverpool and Atletico Madrid.
(CDM) Marouane Fellaini or Daniele De Rossi 29 years old an AS Roma Legend, This guy is a great player he might be a bit old for our squad but we need an experienced players like him too alongside Terry, Lampard, A.Cole & Cech.
(GK) John Ruddy 25 years old from Norwich City Fc as our second-choice GK.
A4: As any other Chelsea Fc Supporter "The Return Of The Special One" :)
