Juan Mata

[Wirral Spurs]

Improbable this may be, but there're 3 things giving me hope.

1) Earlier in the summer it was widely reported that they'd offered Mata as part of a deal for Rooney. There must've been something in it for every outlet to have been reporting it.

2) It's recently been reported that we enquired about him. If the answer to that was "no chance" why would we now be bidding?

3) Even though they don't need the money, there must surely be an amount they're willing to accept?

Agree that there could be more in this. Maybe a discussion based on us letting the Willian argument go. The hierarchy of both clubs look like they have animosity but I think it's all about what's best for them both. If it suits Chelsea and he wants to come then it could be possible. Not sure where our wages cash is coming from though!

See threads over in Spurs Chat for wages - there's a very strong possibility our wage bill will have gone down by the end of the window!

If so, genius!

If this were to happen it would be my favourite transfer since Van Der Vaart. Shame that I just can't see it happening.

I think there's a better chance that this bid happened early in the week, was rejected and as a result we went after Eriksen and have Ozil coming to us in the Bale to Real Madrid sale. And yes, I realize that's absolute batshit crazy talk and holds the same likelihood of me getting with Mila Kunis.

Time for a tattoo it seems.

Well we're definitely in for him. Di Marzio (who's close to Baldini) said we'd made a bid. I wonder if we've upped it.

Someone create a 'Mata - Welcome to Liverpool' montage on Youtube so we can get this done. Can't see us getting this to 100 pages by tomorrow night so alternative methods required!

I don't dare to hope. It would be a truly massive signing if it happened. How on earth could we swing it though?

 

[YidSurfer]

I read somewhere they rejected £35Million from spurs, Why would they even contemplate selling him to us.. It Would defeat the whole point in stealing Willian from us.

Can someone tell me why this thread still exists??

 

[Chris Finch]

Jesus Christ I'm not sure I have enough moisturiser if we sign Mata aswell!!
Chadli, Holtby and Townsend as our back up?! Bloody hell

 

[easley91]

Bugger me he actually is! Don't do this to me.. Would devastate my Chelsea brother!

 

[YidSurfer]

Not sure how BS this is. http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/news/premier-league-paper-round-mata-force-arsenal-move-071947447.html But he don't wanna come to us.

Take it up with Paulinho, Thinktank! To dare is to....hope desperately!

Oh shit............ We couldn't, could we?

If Mata is the big one tomorrow then I'd just have to take a looooong lie down and try to figure out what the hell is going on.

It would go against all sense/logic that they sell to us.

Paulinho following him is curious though....
