Chelsea 2011 Transfer Coup – Torres and Luiz Sign

There are two new player in blue

Well it has been a nervous 24 hours or so as the liklihood of both deals were both off and back on again but it is official.

Chelsea have signed Fernando Torres and David Luiz in the January 2011 transfer window, in what has been the most exciting transfer window for Chelsea fans since the 2004 close season when Abramovich first opened his wallet.

So what do you think of our transfer activity in this window? Have we overpaid and does it matter?

Transfer Window Summary

In

Fernando Torres (Liverpool) – £50m

David Luiz (Benfica) - £21m + Nemanja Matic

Both players will be available for this weekend’s fixture which in poetic justice is against Liverpool no less should be some good territory to wind up the Scousers at the Bridge on Sunday!

Out

Jacob Mellis (Barnsley) – Loan

Daniel Sturridge (Bolton) – Loan

A note on Daniel Sturridge’s loan a good move for all I think do you agree?
