Willian now a favourite on Skybet to sign for Chelsea.

Does common sense even exist anymore? I know his agent is Kia Joorabchian, but even then this is outrageous. Chelsea have more guys like Willian at their club than any other club in the world. They sent Marko Marin of all players on bloody loan.

Hopefully we don't increase our bid

Mata, Oscar, Hazard, De Bruyne, Ramires, Schurrle, Lampard, Moses, Willian.

What a despicable club. Word is they're going to ship Mata off for Rooney, and boy I hope that's true.

FWIW I dont think Willian significantly improves Chelsea, so not too bothered if it happens.

Main concern is if someone good will leave and that they dont swap for Shrek.

So we avoid spending £30m on a player out of the Russian league, and we avoid a player represented by Kia Joorbachian.

Gut feeling is he will still sign, because Chelsea are stacked at ACM, but I don't care how it happens either way.

I hope Mourinho sells Mata.

It really is a sly move from Chelsea. Puts the breaks on a London rival.

Apparently United wanted Mata from the start of the negotiations. Chelsea have several players in that position so United wanting one in return makes sense. All quality players.

However I just can't see it happening. It's a fairly big deal. At 37m surely Chelsea get Willian now?

I can see him doing it. Oscar would be his preferred number 10, Hazard his preferred left wing and Matas wasted out the right(plus we have Schurrle, Moses and KDB for there).

Its really not going to weaken us if we sell and bring in Rooney and Willian.

It's €37m, not £37m - the money isn't the issue.

Spurs ITKs are at odds, some think he was at the training ground doing the meet and great/signing when the offer came through.

Most think Kia Joorabchian is behind all of this and wants a bigger cut of the deal, therefore spreading lies.

One thinks he asked and Baldini said no, so he;s whoring his player out as per usual.

One thinks Anzhi have now changed their mind, possibly to do with Chelsea's bid.

The most reliable ITK by a long shot last updated a few hours ago, saying that the hysteria was laughable and we will still sign him. Not sure whether he was referring to Willian 'considering his options' or the Chelsea bid.

Honestly, if the money grabbing fool would rather spend the season on Chelsea's bench - I couldn't care less. I would rather see Holtby be given the chance at us.

7m difference is still 7m regardless of euro or pound. Chelsea can also offer more wages.

One would have to ask why he hasn't signed the deal yet?

WTF?

Tottenham have offered £30m, Chelsea have offered €37m, do you think that's 7 more?

One would have to answer Kia Joorabchian.
