Hi Eds,

I hear on the grapevine from people in the know that we will announce something regarding the stadium (either increasing capacity or moving) this April. Numbers of 63,000 to 67,000 are on the cards so I would guess it is a move but wouldn't be so sure as planning restrictions regarding light and height may be about to change.

What do you reckon eds? {Ed002's Note - Jolly good.}

Ed, do you expect that a lot of money will be spent in the summer window? Partly due to FFP? {Ed018's Note - yes there will be lots of money spent this summer by many clubs}

ED001 Have you seen much of Chelsea in the NextGen Series this year? any players that really stand out in your view? {Ed001's Note - only highlights, and I wouldn't judge a player by highlights. They always come down to what the director wants to show, they can choose to just show a player's mistakes and make him look poor. On the other hand, they can just show the good bits and make him look like a world beater. You do have 2 outstanding talents, at least, in your youth ranks. The lad you got from Celtic, Feruz, is absolute quality, just need to keep his attitude in check. Chalobah is the other one, though he is out on loan now, I really like the look of him as a player. He looks to have a good attitude as well, always willing to keep going, no matter how bad things go for him, he keeps his chin up and works for the team.}

Feruz has scored again against Barcelona. How many is that now this season. Why are we preparing an astronomical bid for falcao when we have Ba, Lukaku and Feruz. It's about time we blooded our youngsters piazon, de bruyn, chabolah. Blood in a new coach, but I fear the owner will always want the superstars of today at the potential of losing the superstars of tomorrow. Winds me up.

Isn't Feruz 16-17 years old? He will get loaned out to a middle or bottom table team before he gets a start with the first team.

I am a little worried for the future on Chelsea, I understand we have a great crop of young players coming through and from what I've seen they could be amazing players, but these players are very young and I feel next season could be an embarrassing one like this season, but with that being said I wouldn't mind having a trophyless season if we used it to use our young players week in week out and bedded them in for future success, rather than loan them out and buy some foreign flop for stupid money!

Im sorry mate but if we had kept avb we would of nearlt finished the transition and finished intergrating a new squad. were not guna finish this untill a manager is given a season building a team, also moving on lamps and a few othERS.

Agree0 Disagree2

I think next season is the biggest in the last 10 years in my opinion since Abramovich took over.

We will be looking to replace Benitez as manager and bring someone else in (hopefully for the long term)

We will be selling or releasing a few Chelsea veterans and or sub par players such as Benayoun, Bruma, Torres, Ferriera, Lampard, Malouda, Essein and so on.

We will be looking for a world class striker who has performed on a consistent basis for many years which will probably comprise of a large transfer fee Cavani/Falcao.

We will be assessing lots of promising youth and sending them back out on developmental loans or bringing them into the 1st team. Kalas, Chalobah, Kakuta, Lukaku, Kevin De Bruyne, T Hazard, Piazon and so on

I also feel next season some players may be in the last year for Chelsea/playing for there team selection, John Terry, Ashley Cole, Mikel, Marin, Petr Cech.

Very interesting season coming up

I'd much rather have players go on loan to clubs that use them (courtois and kdb) than sit on the bench and play reserve matches. Just look at lukaku. Last year he didn't get any time and stalled his development. This season he's on loan and getting time and appears a different player entirely.

Well the s*n has come out and issued an apology to the club regarding a fairy tale they wrote about JT and Rafa having a 'bust up'. In my opinion every story that rag publishes should come with a waiver that reads - Everything in this article is bullsh*t. It has all been fabricated to sell papers and get internet hits. We check no facts, as we work in the realm of fiction.

After the Hillsborough disaster that they blamed on the innocent, and were found out for, they should have been shut down for good.

Chabolah scored again last night. Going to be some player! Future CFC captain, as he was with the youth team.

I am a big chalobah fan, as i've said before he must be deployed as a center midfeild, he's excels in almost every aspect but just needs to up his game a bit more, a loan in the prem with a small team like wigan, southampton or liverpool (lol), i'll say it again i can't wait for a midfield of

kdb chalobah oscar,

could be brilliant, futures bright and blue
