Aye they were often heralded as the benchmark in this league, ruthless and efficient. Looks like blood money and connections don't go as far these days.

Have a feeling Chelsea will be the ones to sign Mahrez
I wonder how a PSG player comes to Tottenham without breaking their salary structure. If they don't win anything, I see some of their players throwing serious fits.
I have a feeling you will see a few new contracts being signed at Spurs once the window closes.
Have to feel for Arsenal fans, paying the highest prices for tickets and then having nothing to look forward to. Even Levy is getting some decent signings in at the last minute.
Chelsea
Major bollocks dropped there? Even before the window opened it was widely reported that Lukaku and Llorente were top of Conte's striker list.
They're a literal shambles. Wenger and the board have been taking the piss out of the fans for ages.
PSG players aren't all on crazy wages, Tottenham is perfectly able to give him a raise from what he was on.
This one stinks. I think it's going to be one we either come to regret - or go up in flames fantastically.

Mahrez in Barcelona?
Despite the internet speculation about Agent P, United aren’t interested and this won’t concern anyone at Carrington.

Is Custis of the Sun banned? Well, I guess the Sun in general are banned, but Custis is decent. He's saying that Mourinho has made a move for Willian.
Was about to say the same
Custis also saying Barcelona will announce a deal for Coutinho at 7pm...
Good business by Spurs, but he seems to be a proper headcase. Might turn out good, might crash badly.
Custis is full of shit.
Willian is someone i can totally see Mourinho moving for if there is any chance.
He's fantastic when it comes to Utd, would bloody love this to happen.
Willian would be a sensational signing for Utd. I think he is one of the most underrated players in the league and is a really superb player.
Wrong wrong wrong wrong. People want him to be because of who he works for and how he is as a person, but his track record is very good indeed with Utd, and has been for a good while now.
Feel free to provide some examples.
Yup, would be very happy to sign him, especially given how well he's played that season when Chelsea collapsed.
He did, atleast according to Willian but Chelsea closed all doors.
I totally believe Mourinho would try and bid for Willian. But I certainly cant imagine Chelsea, especially after how mental they currently look letting Matic go, selling him to us. It would be absolute madness on their part.
What are the odds on Chelsea selling another player to us after Matic? Can they really sell us another player without Conte going apeshiet? And after losing against Spurs for Llorente ( )?
)?Why should I? Just think back to everyone calling him an idiot for linking us to Neymar and all that being true. Same with Ronaldo. There's countless examples.
I hope we keep our interest in him and make a move in a couple of years time. Still only 24 and plenty of time for him to improve as well. Valencia will not go on forever and will need to be replaced soon.
I could see Conte walking if they sell Willian and Matic in the same window.
Willian won't happen, would have believed it slightly had they got Ox, but after he chose Liverpool I can't see it happening at all, even for silly money.
yip, he is a great premier player I've been wanting this signing since Jose came, would mean even less need for lingard
Custis is saying that Chelsea are on the verge of signing Mahrez.
Yip, nutters that move to London tend not to fair well either
Chelsea Lost out to Liverpool for Chamberlain, lost out to Spurs for Llorente and seems like the same with happen with Barkley. Apparently he's desperate to work under Pochettino.

Of him being wrong. Here's a recent one. We're announcing Morata early July. Even gave the day. Went well.

No Chelsea contact for Mahrez according to Sky.
