Wasn't expecting him to move in the winter anyway. Been hearing rumblings of Villa coming in during the winter but so far it's all smoke no fire.

Rumblings of Negredo everywhere. This blog explains it best:

Meh.

Yeah I'm not terribly enthused either. Glad to see we've been turning things around, but that was with high caliber signings as players (Hazard, Oscar, Azpi). Players who are middling at best aren't what we need at a time when in our worst games what we lack is individual magic. Can't wait until the summer for Falcao.

Good win today, shows why we need to keep Lampsy around.

Also, commentators saying CFC activated Demba Ba's 7.5 million pound release clause. Thoughts?

That would be fantastic. Incredible value for the second leading goal scorer in the EPL. The Africa Cup of Nations isn't this year though is it?
Gigem Trevas
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I think the Cup of Nations is soon because the commentators were talking about how Moses was getting ready for it.

Yeah, heard the same about the Cup of Nations coming soon.

Only knock on Ba is his recent knee injuries although it has held up well this year so far.

quote:
Chelsea's hopes of signing Newcastle striker Demba Ba have suffered an early blow after unproductive discussions over his future, according to multiple reports.

Chelsea officials met the 27-year-old's representatives on Sunday night and the deal on the table reportedly did not come close to meeting the point where he would consider leaving St James' Park.

According to the Daily Mail, Ba earns £20,000 per week plus £20,000 in appearance fees and hoped to double that figure with his new contract, a prospect at which Chelsea balked.

However, while the Ba camp has indicated that the Senegal international does not now expect to be playing his football at Stamford Bridge next month, it is likely that the impasse represents only the initial skirmish in a battle which could run and run.

Apparently the Ba talks are still on. It looks like he didn't speak with the club on Sunday afterall.

quote:
Newcastle United have given Demba Ba permission to open contract talks with Chelsea after the London club triggered the Senegal striker's £7m release clause.

Ba, 27, has been removed from Newcastle's squad for the game against Everton, and will instead travel for talks with the London club.

Interesting...

Minutes per goal in the Premier League this season: Fernando Torres 241, Demba Ba 133.6, Romelu Lukaku 130. #CFC

Sturridge to liverpool. You have to assume someone is coming in.

And yeah, Lukaku looks like he's going to be a beast. He's still only 19. I think he's supposed to stay at West Brom for another year after this, but as soon as that's done I expect he'll slot right into our lineup unless we bring in some high priced phenom like Falcao.

Ba to have a medical tomorrow after agreeing 80k p/w, according to the Guardian

Chelsea subs: Hilario, Cole, Ferreira, Ramires, Mata, Hazard, Piazon
Very interesting selections in Bertrand, Moses, and Marin.

Moses has been getting a lot of playing time lately. And deservedly so, IMO.

Also, what do you guys think of David Luiz's midfield role? Do you think it suits him better?
Gigem Trevas
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I do like Moses on the wings. I like Luiz in CDM fits him better than CB. I think he has played much better since playing in midfield.
Gigem Trevas

Marin should have been sent off.

Whoa...Marin gets the nod! And right as I type this he gets booked.

Marin with a great set up Moses just misses the first goal of the day.

Lampard goal called off cause of a very close offsides call. 0-0

Just when you think we are getting on a roll a new low is established.
