Chelsea mull Luke Shaw swap deal that would see Blues left-back Ryan Bertrand join
Ryan Bertrand + £8m the media are saying what utter rubbish yet more crazy story's from the lame stream media?

1.) 05 Jan 2014
HAH maybe for april 1st

2.) 05 Jan 2014
So Chelski want Luke Shaw. not that we would need to sell but £15m + Lukaku would do thanks very much.

3.) 05 Jan 2014
Plus 8 mil? haha whoever made that up needs to stop smoking crack!

4.) 05 Jan 2014
I saw Bertrand and Ba plus 8 million! I think that is a good deal if Shaw wants to go. Maybe even push for the keeper on loan at athletico

5.) 05 Jan 2014
10 mill + Lukaku and courtois, meh I can dream.

Hi a Chelsea fan here. I agree with you lot, £8mil and Bertrand for Shaw is ridiculous! I believe Shaw will end up a Chelsea player to be honest because he's a fan and obviously a top talent but he won't be on the cheap! But in reply to the above comments, no offence but Courtouis is far too good for you, he's easily top 5 goalkeepers in the world already and he's only 20/21! Oh and I just want to point out you giving Chelsea a lot of stick last season after you drew with us and beat us, well we've done the double over you this season! All seriousness now though I hope you do well this season and credit to your club for producing so many fantastic English players!

Hi Chelsea fan-so if you supported a club as a child that's where you will go as a player?
Good job I don't want to go to Barca. on holiday, wouldn't be able to get a seat on the 'plane for it being full of footballers!
Grasping at straws comes to mind.

Ignore the London press feeding you horse manure. They repeat the same rubbish about you and Luke every transfer window, and same with Lambert and West Ham United every window. It is all fabrication.

Lets face it, Shaw is here for the duration of his contract, so 5 years, maybe more, unless we've kicked on and become a consistent top 6 club by then he'll probably leave. Will he go to Chelsea? Who knows, 5 years is a long time, maybe Abramovich will leave? Maybe Chelsea will do a pompey? Maybe Chelsea will have another transfer embargo, maybe they'll be the biggest club in the world by then. Who knows, Maybe Luke will be like Le Tiss was and Lallana is now, a one club man, all we know is, Luke is a Southampton player and will be for the immediate future

Shaw to Chelsea could well happen at some point but.

1) It is unlikely to be anything like as soon as any paper or Chelsea fan thinks. I have spoken to several and they are still convinced Southampton will let him go this summer, I'd imagine he has much more time than that left with us.

2) This is more along the lines of what the Chelsea fan said but the papers definitely get the value of which he would be sold for wrong. Cortese isn't a sucker and I'd have hoped people would have started to get that message now.

3) Don't discount the chance he may actually be speaking the truth when he says he has no intention of leaving. Southampton has built a very friendly team atmosphere where players are genuine friends very well supported by each other and the club. That has created an atmosphere of them all wanting to stay as part of a team community rather than just a team.

There is no way courtois is one of the best in the world, Luke seems to mature and humble to join a moneybag club like you.

11.) 06 Jan 2014
Courtois is definitely one of the best 'keepers in the world, watch him more often if you don't believe me

12.) 06 Jan 2014
If Courtois was what you are making him out to be, he would be recalled and started over cech. He wouldn't be on loan if he was that good.

13.) 06 Jan 2014
But would they? Cech is one of the best 'keepers in the world too, why would you replace him and risk losing him? Cech for the past couple of seasons has had the edge because of his experience. Chelsea sent Courtois out on loan for two seasons to get some first team experience so he'd be ready to replace an ageing Cech, athletico paid a fee for the loan, Chelsea have no re-call clause due to that, next season Courtois will probably be no 1. Barca wouldn't be interested if he wasn't good

14.) 06 Jan 2014
I think 20 clean sheets in 38 La Liga appearances last season speaks for itself

15.) 07 Jan 2014
Gazzaniga would probably get 20 clean sheets in La Liga too.

Take the top three clubs (Barca, Real Madrid and Atletico) out of it, and it is quite a dire league. Prem's better standard, in my view.

Tortoise (as I call him) is a good 'keeper, and he is too good for Chelsea.
Jack Butland turned Chelsea down for a very good reason (picking Stoke in favour of Chelsea) and I'm hoping/half-expecting Luke Shaw to do the same.
