Think it will be a really close match tomorrow but if mata or
Oscar starts I think we will nick it 2-1 or 1-0. Think we could be relying on a bit of magic from hazard

Metro reporting that Chelsea are ready to offer Yossi Benayoun as part of a deal to bring Jovetic to us.
Is this true ED?
It would make a lot of sense, seeing as Cavani and Hulk talks seem 'stalled' at this point. {Ed002's Note - "Stalled" are they?}

Believable2 Unbelievable0

The Metro's success rate at transfers is at the bottom of all the newspapers. The fact that the Sun and daily star guess more transfers correct should tell you everything you need to know about this rumour

Agree1 Disagree0

Yeah that the sun and the mirror produce so much b.s at least 25% wil be correct

Trueblue012

Who's idea was it to let Lukaku go out on loan? At a time when we need another striker and we send a potential world leading striker away.

I say potential meaning future, currently he is quality next is world class. I have watched this lad come from being a 16yr old powerhouse to what he is now and have always believed he should be kept close and used as much as possible.

Forget Cavani, Hulk etc this lad is ready made and still unbelievably young, Chelsea thought Drogba was a star. The only striker we should be looking at to buy is Falcao (best finisher i have seen in a long time), and since a hands off warning was given we should hold tight and wait, still he would only be second fiddle to Big Rom!

Believable7 Unbelievable2

Couldnt agree more

CFC!

Agree1 Disagree0

He still has some way to go to reach world class level or be a Chelsea regular.This stint at West Brom will certainly help him. A goal does not make him world class overnight .He is still raw ,but has all the attributes of world class striker.Scoring goals and playing regularly will help him a lot.Wish him luck and I hope that he has a memorable season.It all depends on his desire to perform and improve and he is certainly off to a good start.
roan

Agree4 Disagree0

He scored 1 goal, as much as im pleased for the kid his game needs work. Freakishly strong and fast but he couldnt trap a bag of cement with his first touch. Regular gametime with WestBrom will benefit him heaps
ShedLower

Agree1 Disagree0

Completely agree with the Falcao bit. Up there with the top 5 strikers in the world for me. I don't want Cavani or Hulk for the ridiculous prices being quoted, much rather get Falcao for big money! MB

Agree4 Disagree0

You think falcao would be happy with second choice to lukaku ?

Ed, Balague has said we have made an offer of 40 million plus, he would be a fair greater improvement on Meireles, is the info of a bid true?

P.s you usually give funny answers to questions relating to Modric, does thay insinuate there is interest...

PR!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

If we sign modric ill be pissed off. for the simple fact that were gunna take time to gel. so in that case gel mceachran into the team now! BLUEBOY1

Agree3 Disagree3

I wouldn't worry too much, I expect Modric will still end up at Madrid.

IB.

Agree2 Disagree2

People on here seriously need to stop going on about putting mceachran in the team, the fact he couldnt get a game wherever hes gone out on loan clearly shows hes not good enough yet and to say you would be pissed off if we got modric because you want mceachran to play is just silly imo modric is leagues ahead of mceachran.

ed can you explain to me what happens with the champions league trophy? is a new one made every year? and when does a team keep it? thanks {Ed002's Note - They give the trophy back.}

Believable0 Unbelievable1

Is it true that when a team has won 5 champions league trophies, they are able to keep it? {Ed002's Note - No.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Yes it is!! When you win it 5 times your are permanently given a trophy. The team who win the trophy (ie Chelsea) give it back after 10 months. Clubs that win it are then given a replica which is no bigger than 80% the size of a real one! The permanent one is a genuine one I believe.

Chelsea Nick

{Ed002's Note - Not any longer Nick. The rules were changed three or four years ago.}

Agree1 Disagree0

Madrid keep one because they have one it 5 times. {Ed002's Note - The rules have changed over the years, it was three then five and now the cup is not handed over.}

Agree1 Disagree0

I went on a tour of the bernabau an they had a real one

Agree1 Disagree0

Wow you lot are stupid at what point of ed saying the rules have changed did you not think before you typed? oh yer thats the problem you didnt think

madrid won there 5th cup in the 1959-1960 season rules been changed since then

curt

Agree2 Disagree1

For anyone that still didn't understand - because they already had the trophy in their cabinet, it was not taken away from them. Since the rule has been changed no club will receive one on a permanent basis however clubs who won them prior to the rule change will keep theirs.

Ash

Agree0 Disagree0

Azpilicueta, will play against Sochaux this Sunday, Marseille confirm. Does that mean something could it ruin the transfer? Thanks ed: ) {Ed002's Note - Of course not.}

So the british company Sky has three BPL games on this weekend, with none on the opening day of the season. However they have also bought the rights for four La Liga games. Would like to hear your opinions on this. In my opinion it is ridiculous, would of loved to have seen Newcastle vs Tottenham on saturday but i guess sky thinks Mallorca vs Espanyol or Sevilla vs Gatafe is more important.

Rowan

Believable2 Unbelievable1

They only ever show the 12.45 kick off on a saturday. They cant buy every football game jesus.

Agree3 Disagree0

Hey guys, am from the middle east and we're so lucky that we get televised all the premier league games live. Now it's the last and 3rd year Abu Dhabi Sports have the rights to air the games and they show all games live with dedicated HD channels for them. So ur right why doesn't SKY do the same why air several league games and not just stick to one league. Well it's all about the money, here only Abu Dhabi sports can show premier league games and as for other league games Al Jazeera sports shows them. If its possible try getting Abu Dhabi services and also Al Jazeera sports membership card then you'll have all football games live and in HD.
J.

Agree0 Disagree0

I think sky and everything is rubbish. We should be able to watch every game on tv as we want. Pay a tv licence so why not. Mind you I think everyone should stop paying it

Agree0 Disagree1

Sky is a major con you get most of the channels on freeview then have to pay stupid money for sports and movie channels then pay even more if certain sports are on box office

curt

Agree1 Disagree2

Then dont buy it curt

Agree1 Disagree3

Newcastle tottenham i on espn if you care that much. Apparently sky arent allowed the access to the 3 oclock games becasue it means people are more likely to attend the game because they cant watch it on tv. Not sure how true that is though.

AK

Agree1 Disagree0

Sounds plausiable to be fair AK

curt

Agree0 Disagree1

If you want just the sports and have a iPhone then the skysports tv app is good. Can link it to your tv so don't have to just watch it on a tiny screen. Even watch it on the train if you wish.

Just watched our highlights from the 09/10 double winning season and it made me realise how much we miss Ballack. He was great in defence and attack and was the midfield core of that side. In an idealistic world I would get Schweinsteiger to replace him, that won't happen, but i hope Chelsea look to address this area in the next transfer window.

Rowan

Believable3 Unbelievable1

I think we miss the really versatile, physical midfielders, Ballack was brilliant for us, as was Essien in his prime, hopefully he can come back to his best.

Agree1 Disagree0

By that time the league would of been lost!

Agree1 Disagree1

You are right their. deco was good at the start. so much depth in the squad. even cole scored a few. BLUEBOY1

i think chelsea should follow their brazilian interest this year and sign 3 brazilian youngsters Ademilson (18yo Striker) Adryan (17yo CAM) and Wallace (18yo RB) imagine a future attacking midfield with Piazon, Adryan feeding Ademilson and also linking up with Chelsea and Brazil.
Chelsea {Ed018's Note - i will certainly agree with Adryn. He will be one of the big names we here over the next couple years}

Believable3 Unbelievable1

Who do they play for?

Agree0 Disagree0

Sao paulo, man utd / flamengo and fluminense respectively

trueblue012
