Kondogbia joining Inter, would've been a great signing
Still need a CM/CDM and a striker

The deal is not exactly costing the earth.....and he could be here 5 years, so it's a good deal.
Does anyone think there's any truth to Carvalho?
Agreed - the issue with the likes of Lloris making more mistakes than Cech is because he normally has far more to do in a game than a Chelsea keeper. Other keepers in the league deal with 5 times the crosses a Chelsea keeper deals with & 5 times the shots on goal due to the way they defend as a team. If you stuck Chesney in goal at Chelsea he wouldn't make as many mistakes as he does for us because he wouldn't have as much to do.Originally Posted by Penguin
I actually prefer someone like Lloris too. On one hand, Cech's more of a calming influence, a better organiser and a better shot stopper (although I rate Lloris as a stopper too). And he'll be fired up for beating Chelsea and proving Mourinho wrong for dropping him for Courtois. But he's nowhere near as good as he used to be and I think Lloris suits us more.
He makes more mistakes but that's partly because he plays more aggressively, and has to because his defence plays 10 yards further forward than some other keepers are used to. He's great at one on ones and anticipates when someone is going to get put through on goal very early. We need a keeper like that with our high line system. He also regularly gets exposed by the terrible defence in front of him, unlike Cech.
There's no chance of Spurs selling him to us, but a keeper of a similar type and calibre would be perfect. I won't be complaining if we sign Cech though
Been linked with Obameyang this morning according to Bild.
NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
Aubameyang would be nice addition to our CF option, take Reus as well.

Heard something about 11 million, seems a lot for a 33 year old to me, especially one with just a year left and wanting to go, we should get him for next to nothing. If this amount is true, are negotiation team are amateurs.
33 is young for a goalkeeper. Also, we managed to sell RVP for £25m with a year left on his contract. Hate the way we do business sometimes but this isn't an example of bad business. Surpised Chelsea are even talking to us.
Signing a chav wouldn't have been my first choice. However, Cech is one of the best keepers in the PL, he has vast experience and he's potentially got 5-7 years left at the top. It's an inter-PL transfer among two top clubs. I'm surprised it's as low as £11mill. I suppose it's this low because the chavs are uncharacteristically showing a bit of class towards Cach in return for his outstanding service to the club. An apparently we've been chasing Cech for nearly 3 years, the team has finally got their man. On this occasion they have been persistent and it could be said they have pulled off a bit of a coup. £11mill between British clubs for a top pro? A snip.
