Chelsea have completed the signing of central defender Gary Cahill from Bolton for a fee of around £7m.
Cahill, 26, passed a medical on Saturday, before attending Chelsea's 1-0 Premier League win over Sunderland at Stamford Bridge.
"Chelsea is a massive club that looks to win trophies season in, season out," the England defender said.
"It is a big opportunity for me to be a part of that. Opportunities like this, you can't turn down."
BOlton :lol:
Coyle :lol:
We should have got him tbh. Not as good as Verm and Mert but hes better than the rest and with Verm dead most of the time, he'd play a lot of games.
7m :haha:
Didn't they want 17m off us?
Arsene was a blithering idiot to tell 'em to fuck off. For 10mil more than Chelsea paid, we could have had him :sulk:
He isn't fit to clean Koscielny's boots tbh
rather get samba much better then merts tbh.Quote:

Chances are Gibbs will be injured forever so a new left back makes sense and that's what Wenger has identified as a target this window. All told he's almost there with the defence - FINALLY, after years of the writing being ten foot high on the wall.Quote:

We need players asap
Weirdly i thought we might buy a LB in this window due to the fact Gibbs is really a midfielder (And a bit shit) but i guess not.Quote:

We need creativity and a striker.
Marvin Martin, Gotze or even Dembele
Ba, Sow or Podolski.
Lets do this...Chamakh and Arshavin are turd and aren't good enough as back up.
Do you not think we should try and sign someone good?Quote:

Everton are giving United States striker Edson Buddle a trial this week. The 30-year-old striker is currently at FC Ingolstadt.
How many useless strikers to Everton need?
We could use him though tbf.
Fuck it. You know who I want us to buy?
Benzema
One player.
25 Million.
Fuckin, RVP and him upfront. Fuck Theo off for 20 mil to city. Jobs a goodun.
I think its more likely we would sign John Terry mate
Samba puts in official transfer request.
I don't care.Quote:

In the same way that QPR decided that Warnock should be sacked before giving him money to waste, we should wait till the next manager comes in.
RVP will now undoubtly leave due to not gaining a CL place so that gives the new boss more funds to rebuild the team.
Same reason they buy all our other shit players.Quote:

This January is (presumably) the last time Citeh can seriously splurge given FFP starts next summer.
That said, doubt they're interested in Theo at all, doubt he'd move there and doubt they'd pay more than 20M if they were interested.

CHRIS SAMBA has put Arsenal and Tottenham on red alert after handing in a transfer request at Blackburn.
The 27-year-old centre-back, who is also wanted by QPR and Paris St Germain, missed Saturday's win over Fulham after calling in sick the previous day.
He said: "I have officially requested a transfer from Blackburn Rovers Football Club.
"I have personally informed the owners, manager and executives at the club that I want to leave in this transfer window.
"In my five years at Blackburn Rovers Football Club I have always given 100 per cent in every game I have played. I have had several opportunities to leave but I have always stayed.
"I have decided now is the right time for me to pursue a new challenge and I have asked the club to respect my decision and allow me to leave.
"I thank the fans for their support and I hope they feel I have served them and their club well."
Rovers boss Steve Kean has previously insisted that Samba is not for sale.
Must Get
if we get smaba i will be really pissed off. waste of money he would be. we dont need another CB, we need full backs.Quote:

Not even to replace the squid? Or to play as CF now and again? Pifff, fans too short sighted these days.Quote:

If I started a thread based on that article, it could be a record-breaker.
We've kidnapped his kid? How tight are we? Now he'll have to pay us to stay.Quote:
