Is it safe to assume we don't have a hope of keeping Zouma, seeing as the Zapata rumours are gathering pace? (Free transfer from AC Milan)

I've lost track of the amount of names already being thrown around, although admit i'm pretty excited by one - Callum Wilson.

Finally, i was wondering if anybody has any info on where Yacine Brahimi may be heading? Excellent signing for whomever gets him.

Don’t get the zapata links. 32 years old, so may get a season or two out of him but that seems to go totally against what silva and brands have said about what they want to build towards with all the talk of bringing in younger hungrier players this link makes no sense to me.

Could it be wer looking at zapata for one or 2 seasons in the hope we can get zouma after Chelsea ban is up. So a short term fix so to say.

My point wasn't necessarily about us bringing in Zapata, more that if we're looking at other defenders then is it because Zouma is a no-go. I don't see the point in him either when younger with resale value is surely the aim but i guess, with a restricted budget, a 'free' signing would help with bringing in targets for other positions.

{Ed002's Note - Zouma is only 24.}

Sorry Ed002, i phrased badly. I meant i don't see the point in Zapata either, like Gingerdan doesn't.

{Ed002's Note - Ah, ok.}

Didn’t we sign Williams at a similar age to Zapata and thought we’d get a couple of good seasons out of him?
