Lovren, he was and is EPL material. Great defender and won't cost us that much.

I would take Benatia for this money. I don't know who watch A.S. Roma recently but hes almost Kompany fast strong,anticipating ,header ,scoring goals .He was with two more players bring A.S. Roma from mid table club to 2 place .and if Juve did not have like 12 points give to them by offside and peno who knows!?They Lost i think 3 games and something recived like 6 7 goals at home. World class CD, shame we are not for him in race.I also admit i watch Mangala just twice but Portugal league ,hardly a chalenge.Hope he be a compčite hit if we get him.We really drop from CL always because we don't have proper CD and they always changing.Now Demi is my big worry against whiners , hes slow , hes longing to fuckin much and this dive team just wait for that and he relly to much on reading game witch is good against average players but Suarez world class diver, brrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Yeah, but Benatia will cost us a shitload of money, not as much as Mangala, but still 30 mil at least.

I watch him all season believe me he is worth it , he did not have bad game and he really rule in seria A. I say it before, him,Strotman Pjanic , Gervinho and course capitano are reason why they have such a turn around .But the defense was specifically raised to a new level by Benatia. Though I'm rarely when amazed by defender because frankly it's hard.Benatia is World Class.Then again i said i did not watch Mangala so i can't say hes much better or just better.

I know my point of view on this is somewhat boring but I shudder at the thought of spending big money on defenders.

I'd much rather it be spent on some more attacking players/forwards and if this meant keeping Lescott, then so be it as we probably could do much worse.

Not at all. Teams must constantly improve or go stale.

Agree.....and Chelsea will get better....and we want to win the Prem again plus the Champions League.
The season before this we didn't strengthen after winning the league and look what happened!

For me the fact that most of our lads are under 30 and, the few who are over 30,look to have a few years left in them,makes me think that for a few years we should be putting our efforts into keeping this squad happy.

Benatia is Defintly one of the biggest standout improvement players of 13/14 and I've been shocked as to why no teams have been linked with him yet. Him and pjanic

Then u are not up to news , Benatia is on Barcelona ,PSG, Atletico Madrid, Juventus list and Pjanic well all this and Bayern even rags, spurs chase him for 3 4 years and Garcia had a choice to sell Lamela or Pjanic to them(poor Spurs).But if he moves he would go in PSG because he was guest few games there him and Benatia, but Roma want to keep him and Benatia( Garcia don't wanna stay if they sell those two players for next year CL) and offer 4 mill a year contract ,but Pjanic still did not sign and hes contract is until 2015.If u ask me we do not need player like Pjanic, we are cover there but Benatia, well i would love him here. Who can tell me here if u can compere Mangala to some defender in last 20 years witch would he most look like by style of play ?I agree with person up that this team just need to stay and it will get better and better but we can ignore that we are week at back and it cost us number of games.

Not sure he does want to go to Chelsea - asked about the choice, he said Chelsea is in London so would go there, he needs educating about Manchester, Greggs & Lowry that's all :)
