Looks like Cavani is going to United.

What?

He's on 120k a week at Chelsea

I thought it was more, closer to 180.

**** are Chelsea up to loaning out half of their 1st team squad?

Barkley, Hudson Odoi and Rudiger all loaned out?

We'll see how he gets on. I don't think he's a special player. Looked promising as a kid in a mediocre Everton squad but has never caught up with the hype. Was out injured for his last season at Everton so got his Chelsea move mainly based on reputation, and his England call-ups. He's looked pretty mediocre playing alongside better players and only scored 4 league goals in three years.

Its good that villa got him on loan rather than permanent, to me he seems like the kind of Joe Cole like player that bottom half clubs sign on huge wages based on hope rather than judgement, a sort of big name player that optimistic fans can get excited by but doesn't really work out.

Or, not for the first time, I'll be totality wrong and he'll end up as their figurehead as they snatch a Europa spot

Have to agree, the bluenoses love an over hyped midfielder, whatever happened to Jack Rodwell?

Yeah I get you. He's definitely not a special player, although at the very start at Everton it looked like he might be. But he is pretty decent and I think it's a big lift in quality for Villa. If he stays fit I think he'll do well for them.

I think he's a good option off the bench for Chelsea and in certain games they might be looking at the bench for someone to bring on and wishing they still had him. Their midfield options really aren't that good so I'm just a tiny bit surprised they let him go on loan.

Yeah I've seen that too, wasn't interested in either us or Juventus when we were making enquiries (about a loan). Imagine if he turned us and them down and ends up working for Ole!

Possibly different tho, for us he would be coming in as cover for the front 3, and not guaranteed a start. For United it would be as a guaranteed starter, much better for the player even if in a much weaker side.

Fantastic loan signing to be honest and I think a mistake from Chelsea to loan him out.

Sky said on Monday I think that Dembele really, really doesn't want to leave Barca. So am sure he'll be absolutley delighted to end up there of all places if it does happen!

Apparently he turned us down on loan in June.
