Seems like a similar overhaul to 2004. Though it should have happened 2 years ago I am definitely not complaining.
We all know what happened after 2004 !
I'd say it is 99 percent sure that we will get a new striker and I'd say roughly 55/60% chance it will be cavani .
Last year for RDM was all about maximising the results out of a iffy squad , and this year will all be about getting the best tactically out of a worldy squad

All big teams have atleast 3 good strikers.
Now as Romelu Lukaku has gone to WBA on season long loan, some where i guess we are close to sign a new striker.
We are now having F. Torres as our main alone striker followed by D. Sturridge who will replace Torres as and when required.
But what if Torres or Sturridge gets injured then that 3rd striker needs to take place.
The departure of Lukaku means guaranteed new striker signing.....
cavani/hulk/schurle/moses!!
Our may be a surprising one which been kept away from media by CFC!!

ed, where are we at with the battersea move? {Ed002's Note - Not an issue right now.}
Didnt it collapse. Our bid was rejected
Chinese business men bought it and they are going to turn in into flats
Was bought by some blOkes in the middle east,great idea sell more of our stuff to foreigners!

Ed for a club like Chelsea I can't understand the hold up on players like Azpilicueta and Moses for the sake of 1 or 2 million {Ed002's Note - Ok.}
Ed, you are cracking me up today
If that 1 or 2 million could be spent on things such as grassroots and youth development, I can see every reason to be picky over it. Also, we don't want to set a precedent of paying over the odds for anyone, or teams dealing with us will just try and take advantage.

Eds, there is no chance of us bidding for sneijder or hazard for sure? Sneijder for the wages but why not hazard? {Ed001's Note - because he is not interested in a move to Chelsea.}
lol {Ed018's Note - in some fairness, i'm not sure Hazard had any idea where he wanted to go up until a week or so before he figured it out.}

Cech
Ivanovic. Terry. Cahill. Cole
Ramires. Oscar
Hazard. Mata
Cavani. Torres
Solid defence,pace and creativity going forward.Hopefully we can sign cavani or hulk to play up top or RW.Moses,decent signing (better than malouda). My choice for RB would be Micah Richards if we could sign him for £15-20m. Only seen Azpilicueta at the Olympics so cannot really comment on him.

Heard Real want rid of Kaka for Modric deal. Anyone else thinking Di Matteo might be interested? We certainly like Brazilians!
Kaka is a shell of the player he used to be JJ

Ed or fellow Chelsea boys surely with lakaku going on loan we must be very close to signing a striker! I just hope we Dnt get this schurrle its gotta be Cavani! We need a proven world class striker not a young hopefull. Wot u think my fellow kings

anyone rate cech? i dont
He can be a bit clumsy at times but i wouldn't say i don't rate him, he is up there with the best in the world
trueblue012
Proberly the worst post ive ever seen!
kevinCFC {Ed018's Note - i debated on just deleting it, but was kinda curious if someone else was actually gonna have something bad to say about Cecch}
Are you a scouser still one of the best keepers in the world, now jog on and watch girls beach volleyball you might know more about it
gareth 1973
Cech recieves a cheque for playing for the czechs check that out
Nothing wrong with watching girls beach volleyball.

I've seen a lot of talk about how josh had a crap loan spell at Swansea but one thing people fail to realize is that he had good players in front of him. Siggurdson was one of the best players the second half of the season and earned a moved to spurs for his efforts. Joe Allen also had a good season and was rewarded with a starting spot for team gb and will get a move to Liverpool. While I will say if he's not a regular starter for them he's not ready to be a regular starter for us I think people don't give Swanseas midfield enough credit and therefore bury josh.

How is going to spurs or Liverpool a reward?!
Oh I get it, your being ironic......... Right?
ELI
Yeah mate reward wasn't the correct word. Maybe step up. As much as I like neither Im not senile enough to say Swansea is better off then either.

We can't loan thorgan hazard to any EPL club this summer . Same reason why we couldn't loan lukaku
Last year.
Is that correct ed ?
BIFTW {Ed002's Note - That is one reason and you cannot loan two to another EPL club.}
10 Aug 2012 15:10:18
Ed is it true we had a bid of 35mill accepted for cavani
KevinCFC {Ed002's Note - Not yet.}

Hi ed I've been hearing that Romelu Lukaku and Thorgan Hazard are going on season long loans to Norwich and are being finalising by this week. I think it is the right thing to do as we have Torres/Sturridge and Hazard can play up top. With Oscar, Lamps, Meireles, Ramires and co I think Thorgan can go out on loan and if they go together that is the best deal for us and Norwich. What have you heard? {Ed002's Note - That is not possible under the EPL rules.}
Sorry to be a pain ed but what rule is that? {Ed002's Note - M7.5 from memory.}
Why not? {Ed002's Note - You cannot have two players on loan from the same club. What you have been hearing is simply wrong - Twitter I guess?}
Good memory ed
Cheers for that
Two players from the same parent club on loan at 1 club.. I believe that is it anyway without getting the book out..

Ed, moses aint chelsea class surely? What about hulk?
Moses is young and explosive, he can score goals and put defenses on the back foot. He may not be the greatest but he is fairly cheap, has prem experience and won't be to bothered about being on the bench. For me he is a step up from Kalou.
He loves to attack defenders and take them on
Ed Moses? Olympic fever?

hi ed are chelsea interested in rvp,if not why the hell not? {Ed002's Note - No.}

Geeez some people, you'll think they would be satisfied but know..........
P.S. ED002 you have gone soft....... Bummer.......
