Chelsea Bid 70m for Torres

Enough reports around to make this look true.

Torres and Drogba as a strikeforce is a terrifying thought.

Pretty sure that would be a separate deal, as pretty much every paper is reporting the 70m bid and not mentioning Cole. I'm guessing Chelsea are thinking if they chuck enough money at Liverpool the owners will overrule any decision by Rafa, as they still need the money.

Liverpool are already f**ked.

Why would Joe Cole be included in any deal? His contract is up at the end of the season.

Joe Cole is a free agent this summer, so he'll be off to whereever he fancies. I have seen rumours linking him to Manchester United, West Ham and also Liverpool.

Interesting that Chelsea are bidding now, with Man City still not sure whether or not a CL is theirs.

somehow cant see him going to west ham, he's a saucy bastard though, he's hardly played in the last 18 months and when he has he's been shit , and he's demanding a rise !!
 


The rumour I've heard from a relative of Joe Cole is that he's looking for a small raise of around £5k per week to sign a new contract, however that was around 3 or 4 months back, so he may have changed his mind, however have only met said relative the once.

If that's true, given Liverpools financial situation, they won't be able to turn that down.

If the bin-dippers do sell him and the full £70m does not go to Benitez to *strengthen* the team, then he'll be off too.

To be honest even if Liverpool did sell I can't see Torres wanting to go to Chelsea.

He has stated several times in the past that he would only leave Liverpool for a club abroad and not another Premiership team and it isn't as if he's going to be short of offers.

I'd say it's more likely that he goes back to Spain

Personally, I can't see Drogba and Torres working that well in the same side. Maybe thats why I'm not a football manager though.

Blimey, so Torres is worth 20 million ridge less than our stadium.
