No creativity in midfield, when is carlo going to notice that Get someone in

Hey Ed, do you think the appointment of Micheal Emenalo as assistant manager is a temporary one till the end of the season or a long term one?

{Editor's Note: I don't expect him to have any sort of profile in first team coaching at all.}

Chelsea needs to sign Toni Kroos from Bayern Munich. He looks to be out of favour at the German club and he will act as a great replacement for Lampard. He's also a fantastic player. What's your thoughts Ed? {ed's note - would be a good signing, but why not go for Schweinsteiger?}

Ed wages is the stumbling block, he would sell for around 18m and i believe Abramovich would agree that but he will want wages in the region of 120k a week and we have only had our 80k a week cap in place since June. Chelsea cannot break their own rule within six months. I think Manure or Real Madrid are favourites for him Ed!

He would be a great signing mind!

Because his price tag and wages are way out of Chelsea's reach.

Hey Ed, do you think that Carlo Anchelotti can recreate John Obi Mikel and return him to his old attacking ways and buy someone else to play in the holding role?

{Editor's Note: I don't think that is part of the plan.}

"Kia Joorabchian received €8.5m,
Benfica received €8.5m,
Ramires received €1.9m

Also Sky Sports, The Guardian & our own website confirmed the fee was in the region of £16.3m."

So you are suggesting that Benfica lied on the press release then. Astonshing. You really need to start using something other than Google and Wikipedia as sources of information.

Sharkey.

Sharkey, I hope i am wrong about what i keep hearing, fact of the matter is i am not the only one hearing that Roman has closed his cheque book. To be honest everyone close to this club can tell you what i am saying, you are mental if you think Roman is going to buy us £25m players again, those days are finished Sharks, but like i said i hope i am wrong about all of this, problem is i know i am not.

As for trying to scare my fellow peers, don't be so melodramatic, i am giving them a reality check, something you obviously need.

Hi Ed. .
Do you know if there is some sort of conflict between Ancelotti and Bruma - since Carlo prefers to play a semi injured Alex or Ferreria as center back?

-And if Bruma isn't ready (already a full Dutch international) - why didn't Carlo buy cover in the summer?
Cheers

{Editor's Note: I am sure that there is no conflict at all. Bruma has come on on a couple of occasions. I agree playing Ferrera at centre back last week was none to great an idea.}

Well surprise, surprise, another blank on the road and a rather predictable 1-0 reverse minus the backbone of Terry and Essien. The second string are simply not good enough and would struggle with a top half finish if playing every week. Why can't the club ever get it right. The kids should be introduced gradually maybe two or three at a time. Instead we now find ourselves with seven of them on the bench every game and an unfair expectation to produce something to cover up the usual lack of creativity and lack of ideas when they come on. That said they still offer more than the hapless Ramires. Whoever sanctioned such a dreadful signing. This bloke cannot pass, shoot, create or score and possesses absolutely zero physical presence. The harder he tries the worse it gets and as a result we are constantly getting overrun in midfield and letting the opposition at the back four far too easily. At least he can run, what more do you want for £18m. Abramovich should break the bank for Schweinsteiger and a creative wide right player for the front three. This would almost certainly guarantee the title as the rest are so so poor. I, ve had my rant but can you imagine what is going to happen at Spurs in a couple of weeks with their pace, width and the crowd behind them. If we get away with a 2-0 defeat then its a result. Garbage Chelsea, total garbage and another abysmal weekend. Fed up with this mediocrity.

To all people who think the likes of Ganso and Pastore will come to Chelsea, I am sorry to burst all of your bubbles. These players has a good possibility of arriving at Stamford Bridge but it won't happen as Roman Abramovich is trying to cut back thus making Chelsea a self sufficient club. He will supply cash when we need to sign good players but a maximum of 20mil pounds will be spent. Chelsea only bid 16.9 mil for Neymar and Abramovich was only willing to pay as high as 20mil that's why the deal crumbled. Neymar and Ganso will end up Serie A. Chelsea should start buying like Tottenham. They signed some great players in the past few years like Bale(what a coup) Modric, Lennon and Van der Vaart. Luckily for us Terry and Alex have returned but maybe not fully fit. In the end a decent center back is needed to cover Terry and Alex. Mexes is available on a free at the end of the season so he may be on top of our transfer list considering he's a class CB. Also a decent CM or CAM is needed possible targets are Toni Kroos(Bayern Munich) Alan Dzagoev(CSKA Moscow) Javi Martinez(Ath Bilbao) Armin Bacinovic (Palermo) Douglas Costa(Shaktar Donesk) and whatever players who are super talented, young, within our budget and won't demand much high salaries. What's your thoughts Ed?
{Editor's note - That sounds about right}

There should be no excuses for today's defeat to Birmingham City. Did not take our chances and poor tactics form Carlo. Chelsea really need players.

20 Nov 2010 17:00:01

Hey Ed any truth in Chelsea wanting to sing Lukas Podolski?
{Editor's note - I do not know}
