Remember the Istanbull 'boom' we got two years ago

Would it be fair to say

 

Winning it again this year + couple of american billionaires + planning permission on a 74,000 stadium + best fans in the world + best manager in the world = we could just about buy any player in the world who was available this summer

[Benzo-13]

Yep. I'd agree with that.

 

The next few signings for this club are gonna be from the top level so it's a great position to be in.

[Mike]

don't think it works like that.

its a global game and many players will always chose another country over the (north)of england regardless.

After watching Ferreira vs us, I think Chelsea will go all out to get Alves.

[bazz]

Good points there

 

I think we are in a much better (potentially) position in alot of areas compared to 2005

 

With the new owners money aswell and marketing ability, we should be able to capitalise more than we did in 2005 and really put our club on the world map and generate the extra revenue needed.

 

Im getting a warm feeling about our future....

 

Dear Mr Owners, can we have Samuel Etoo now please.

I dont think chelsea will be going out and buying anyone

 

The way the russian t*** veteod all january transfers and the fact he has not been to hardly any of chelsea's recent games suggests to me he is getting fed up with it

 

Wouldnt be suprised to see him f'ck chelsea off in the next 18 months

I'm slightly more concerned about the possibility of another hangover after the final carrying into the start of next season.

If Mighty Mouth stays he'll go after Luis Miguel before Alves.

[Wardy]

I reckon last night was probably the final nail in his coffin, it sounds like he didn't have much choice about who the signings were anyway.

 

Hopefully the uncertainty at Chelsea will put Alves off going there.
