None of the big 6 have the (ffp-compliant) cash to buy Ferguson. Especially not those f***ing idiots on the Kings Road.

The Evening Standard report came before the fake Twitter post in fairness. But the fact remains that it’s bollocks.It might have started with a fake twitter account, but now it's getting picked up elsewhere:

Possibly because there is sweet FA happening in this transfer window but they still need headlines. What better than to pick a random Brighton youngster and link them to Chelsea?It might have started with a fake twitter account, but now it's getting picked up elsewhere:

I hear discussions lasted about 10 mins, 9 min 59 seconds of uncontrollable laughter and then a “no” quickly followed by the phone being hung up.

Can’t believe that’s true. That’s a level of deluded stupidity beyond even them… well maybe not.

Fine. The 6 month loan fee is £50m, with an additional £100m option to buy.

Has to be said that is a bizarre rumour. So bizarre it must be true?
We'd be mad to ever hang the phone up on Chelsea. He's our 3rd best striker currently. Let's start the bidding at a quarter of a billion pounds.

Excuse my obvious ignorance, but how the heck aren't Chelsea mentioned in the same breath as City when FFP charges are mentioned?
Probably with the idea that a player who has featured in 18 (11 starts) of our 20 PL games is ‘struggling for game time ‘ surplus to requirements?
or maybe with the valuation of €28m?
or perhaps with the idea that we’d even consider selling to one Of our direct rivals for a fringe European spot.
