I think Mourinho wants his midfielders to cover a lot of ground - Mata may be viewed as a bit of a luxury and not suited to his strategy. I wonder whether options on Rooney are going to be part of the deal.
Quiffers, the pair of you.

Me and who else? I'd like to suggest a 6CM dictionary. It would be useful to have in-house terminology explained. I have an idea what "Quiffers" means, but a full etymology of the word would not go amiss.Quiffers, the pair of you.

Thanks. Maybe not quaffing (I think I specialize more in quaffing), more like similarly sharp intellects. 😉You and gene, to whom you were replying. 😛
BTW, no biggie but "quiffing" means posting something as if it were a new point when it's already been posted in that thread. I said the same as you a fair while back about why Mourinho doesn't fancy Mata. The term was initially coined because Vlads Quiff, a much missed previous poster, was accused of doing it more often than most.
The talk is that chelsea have bid for salah and matched costa's release clause. With mata going the other way way, this wouldn't be great all round.
Why would Costa leave Atleti? They're top in the league, in the CL knock out stages and he's playing for a manager he loves. Why would he got to Chelsea where he can't play in Europe? He's not leaving them now ...
I can't believe we missed out on him now ... who was saying he was shite? 🙂

It can wait till the summer ... if they sign him though, Lukaku becomes available ..........
1. No he doesn't.
2. He'd be a replacement for Suarez.
3. You know what that means...
Di Marzio :Mohamed Salah is close to joining the EPL. Chelsea is very close to acquiring him. The Blues saw him first hand score against them, Jose’ Mourinho observed him up close. And now he is looking to acquire him, the negotiation is ongoing, they are discussing the deal on the basis of 15 million euro plus bonuses, but it’s not done yet. Liverpool is now behind Chelsea, who wants to close the deal with Juan Mata on verge of signing for Manchester United. Salah is getting his suitcase ready.
@Jay_78_: Once Juan Mata is finalised to Man Utd, I expect them to go for Fabio Coentrao aswell, before deadline day.
Great, another player who'd improve a key position for us potentially improving the Mancs instead.

It got the name Quiffing (as put forward by yours truly) as Vlads Quiff started the thread moaning about people opening a thread to the last page and then making posts where the answer is in the thread. I don't think he was especially guilty of it, but the one who raised the issue.
The term quiffing is my greatest contribution to the site 😎
He's the Portuguese version of Glen Johnson.
