We are 8 goals and 3 assists down on last season in Gallagher, Benteke got 4 goals and 1 assist. Scored 7 goals this season, 4 from Zaha, 2 from set pieces, 1 well worked goal from Mateta, with Zaha influential in that goal too. If he gets injured and we don't bring anyone in, I think we are far from a mid table side, Bournemouth apart, I think this is the strongest the Premier league has been, we don't bring someone in who can score goals to take the burden off Zaha, we may struggle. We thought we'd done that a year ago, when we signed Edouard for £14.7m.

I get that, but Vieira is a winner, he wants to challenge Willo, at this moment in time we are not at that level, as I've said an injury to Zaha, we are in trouble, where do the goals come from? 3 transfer windows we've spent £100 million, 1 transfer window Forrest £141 million including free transfers. We have people in control of our club who were willing to buy Chelsea for Billions, if they wanted to invest in us they would. Also of course in the current window only Leicester and Bournemouth have spent less. It’s a fine line between 13th and 18th in this league. A few injuries are we are possibly in trouble.

Why are players linked with us always "monsters" or "beasts"?

I see you are another over the top with Zaha we have shown we can play without him it's a team sport and the goals are coming from him because that is how the set up is others could do the same it's the tactics. Comparing us to Forest who have only just come up is dumb and shows your lack of knowledge how the fiance system works (I suggest you look it up it explains why so many come up and spend big) The American came into the club which was agreed to invest only not bank roll and they put up money for stadium etc which never happened (When Big Sam was in charge he praised the Americans they was the ones who funded his transfers over wise we would have been relegated) The other thing Chelseas generates hundreds of millions if not billions on global scale we make almost nothing due to wages etc.

So, in keeping with the thread at hand, we signed anyone yet?

As a manager he’s not achieved anything yet other than the sack from Nice after just 18 months so the jury is still out on that one.

As I said a few weeks ago: CG Are still very much a possibility since then we have advanced negotiations over Moriba, we are also interested in Lozano & Watkins. Rumours persist over Zaha however I’m hearing he will sign new deal unless Chelsea make an offer that is too good to turn down. Going to be an interesting finish & a deal or 2 may not close till the last day of the window.
