Only because of that outrageously suspicious Luiz deal. That should have been investigated by every authority and agency available.

Corruption at it's finest.
What is there to investigate?
PSG money man: I'll give you 50 million quid for David Luiz
Chelsea money man: I'll ask Roman
Chelsea money man: PSG have offered 50 million for Luiz, do you want to take it and run?
Abhramovic: Sell him he's shit.
Chelsea money man: Yeah we'll do the deal
PSG money man: Great, I'll transfer the money over now, just send me your bank details
Chelsea money man: Already have
PSG money man: Thanks you're a gent
Chelsea money man: Thanks and don't let anybody tell you different, you've got yourself a real gem at a bargain price there, I had to really twist Roman's arm to get you this deal, I only did it because I like you.
Im not convinced that we are really after William Carvalho. Of course it has been reported that Sporting rejected a 24million offer from us for him but we've not been back since and are continually linked with other Midfielders.
I would have thought if we were really keen on him we would have pressed on and increased our bids....
Vargas has joined QPR on loan with view to €10m purchase :blink:
They managed to extort nearly 40 million from Man Utd for Mata so I think they would be ultimately cash neutral/profitable in that window as well.
It's been observed already but they exploit the loan system loophole to sign the best young players, perpetually loan them out to semi decent teams where they become integral and then sell to said club (who are desperate not to lose them) for a massive profit. See Lukaku and De Bruyne.
It needs to cracked down upon but ultimately I don't think the FA/UEFA/FIFA have the balls to do it. The loan system wasn't designed as a revenue generator for clubs.
£37m for Mata is such a stupid deal. The sort of player only Maccy thinks is top notch, while the rest of us want some passion, grit, determination and physical presence from the likes of AC.
Btw Ramsey said in the interview with John Hartson (look it up on BBC sport wales) that Scott Parker has been the most difficult player he has played against.
