Is there any real possibility (if Rooney is not option), that we'll sign a striker?

There is always a possibility. Jackson Martinez is the latest striker to be linked to Chelsea

At the beginning of the transfer window I was very excited at rumours of signing 3 or 4 world class players such as Cavani, Falcao, Sneijder, Rooney. However, i've been dissapointed and can't see chelsea signing anyone big now. Mourinho says he only wants Rooney but I believe Moyes when he says Rooney definitely isn't for sale. Give up on Rooney and maybe get E'too as a last resort (Stick with Lukaku and Torres!)

Etoo is rubbish, torres will be great under jose

Just a spoilt fan not appreciating players like Oscar, mata, hazard, luiz, de bruyne, lukaku, schurrle, Moses, azpillicueta, courtios, Cahill, piazon, Wallace, van ginkel, all signing in the last couple of years. Just to add to existing players. I'm happy with van ginkel alone, let alone returning loanees and schurrle.

I agree, van Ginkel may be one of many 'blue boys' who stand out this season.

I allso believe de Bruyne and Schurlle will be ones to watch.

Moses has had a very good pre-season and under Jose, he will rip defences apart

Eto'o is not rubbish and Torres is a spent force. We should swap the two

And Eto'o isn't a spent force? I'd snap someone's arm off to have the Eto'o of 4/5 years ago and I posted this before. Not now though. I'm happy with what we have. a good mix of exciting young players new to the league, experienced campaigners and players who've just adjusted to the PL. I expect a lot from Schurrle, De Bruyne, Hazard, Mata, David Luiz, even Lamps at times. Any additions are a bonus (preferably a striker), but not imperative.

Obviously only my opinion.

LJ, age apart, have you seen Eto spend the last 2-3 missing the chances Torres has or even being gun shy the way he's been in some matches with what many would regard as more than half chances? If yes, then Eto too is spent.

hey guys since epl is starting tomorrow
wats your fantasy league lineup
mine is
hart
williams g johnson O'Brien jagielka ivanovic
mata yaya toure
anelka v.persie ruiz

constructive & positive criticism will be welcomed

2 midfielders?
Mata might not start against hull having only played 45mins pre season

yaya won't be scoring as much this season as he will play CDM

if you mean ash williams in DEF then have a look at swansea's fixtures - utd, spurs, liverpool, arsenal in the first 6 weeks

other than that great

12 players mate.
Might need to sneak the extra one on myself ahaha.
I'd take out Hart for someone I'm swayed towards Mignolet personally and also take out Ruiz and put in Snodgrass cause I rate them a lot.
Good luck mate.

There's 11 players.

IB.

To the person who posted the above comment
for your kind info yaya toure is ONE player
incase if u hadmt read it properly

Yaya won't be scoring this weekend either, isn't he injured?

Anelka?

Dear Ed's, did anyone at Chelsea ever consider to move to Twickenham Stadium? {Ed044's Note - I don't think so.}

Nice idea

Not even near chelsea

Chelsea is a big club, has supporters all over London, England and all over the world. It's 7.6miles from Stamford Bridge, it's in west London, it doesn't matter is it in Chelsea or not.

Stamford Bridge isn't in Chelsea Ness, I think he just means its too far away from our current stadium. (Which I agree with)

On your logic then, Manchester United could move to Beijing if they ever want to relocate, after all, they have plenty if fans there!

But Manchester U aren't trying to move.
