Guess it depends whether they did it before signing Colwill or not.

I was listening to a Chelsea fan podcast last week when they were going through the squad ( it was quite a long podcast!). They basically have a lot of defenders and need to get rid of a few. The feeling was that Colwill had never delivered for Chelsea since returning from Brighton. One said angrily, "We could have got £40 million from Brighton last year but now we'd happily take £25m". Yes it was fan talk but they’re pretty knowledgeable blokes so I found the sentiment interesting.
Player looks world class playing for Brighton - goes to Chelsea, doesn't play as well..........
Bit of a pattern isn't it!
Well they won’t be getting the top players for a while then,
They wouldn’t get out of bed for that.

True though sadly Cucurella seems to have turned a corner.

These aren't the players you're looking for.

A likely transfer ban, which is coming down the line for unauthorized payments by the Abramovich regime, is going to stop anyone signing for them for a while.
That's why they've been hoovering up all the young talent they can.

Looks like this isn't happening. I'd be very surprised if other teams don't come in for him in January on a Bosman if he doesn't sign a contract, especially bigger teams.

I can't see us being the only one in for him if he goes for free. Left footed centre backs these days are really hard to come by, I think we've lost out on him and now we move on to the next target.

Something in JPVH's character makes me think he's the kind of player that will stick around and not jump at the first opportunity.

They could get Igor buy or loan!This one isn't happening I think. Boscagli is not happy about it but it seems we've dragged this on too long for PSV's liking and they don't have many defenders.
'PSV is klaar met Brighton en neemt grote beslissing over Boscagli'
PSV heeft Brighton & Hove Albion laten weten niet meer te willen onderhandelen over Olivier Boscagli. De Engelsen hopen de verdediger voor het sluiten van de transfermarkt binnen te hengelen, maar hoeven niet meer op medewerking uit Eindhoven te rekenen.www.voetbalprimeur.nl

Webster and Igor seem perfectly adequate back ups. With the arrival of Kadioglu and Blly staying, we can also reposition Veltman and Weifer too if necessary. Unless, there is a value deal to be done somewhere, I can't see us moving on to anybody else if this one's not happening.
Billy is off by the looks of it.

All the reporting has been that PSV don't want to sell and it would take a crazy offer, but there has been no suggestion as to what that would be.
Sounds like we bid around €10m.

We’ll probably come back to this one.
"angry and disappointed" that PSV didn't let him join us apparently...

I wonder if we'll still be in pole position if he's a free agent in the summer.

He can sign a pre-contract in January. That’s our best chance unless PSV are ready to accept a reduced fee
