Do you think Drogba and Torres can co-exist at Chelsea? I personally dont, and think Drogba should be ushered out, but i hear he is about to sign a contract extension. Is this just a ploy to up his value or will we have to endure a Torres v Drogba discussion pre every match? {Ed002's Note - I doubt they can play together but they can co-exist.}

Chelsea deal: Buy Kalou and get Malouda free

Believable8 Unbelievable0

I say just give them both away for free... or pay someone to take them off of our hands haha

Agree0 Disagree0

Think of who 35m would get us instead modric, snijder, nasri, sweinstiger, moutinho, vidal, hamsik, alonso... We gotta push to get some class playmakers in, Torres would be awesome with a quality playmaker

AVB and RDM are not stupid So why are they still assessing the squad when 90% of all Chelsea fans know the squad needs refreshing, there is a desperate need for wingers and a creative midfielder and we need to sell/release some of the older and less skillful players??
I'm beginning to think we won't make top four unless we make some moves soon

Believable8 Unbelievable0

I am glad more and more of us come out and say this. Something is not right for those of us who know Chelsea. It is not AVB or Roman. I am starting to believe that there is a certain number of players who have strong infuence in matters and that is not healthy.

Agree0 Disagree0

To take it a bit further it was the same group responsible for Ray Wilkins's dismissal. But then it is just pure speculation.

Agree0 Disagree0

Need to forget Modric and move on. He is not even worth £25m never mind £35.

Believable10 Unbelievable0

Thank you I thought that I was the only supporter who felt that way.

Agree0 Disagree0

What are you two talking about? Ed002 has stated a number of times that is how he feels...

Agree0 Disagree0

Well we are just reinforcing Ed's opinion then

Agree0 Disagree0

"Well we are just reinforcing Ed's opinion then"

Exactly

Ed, do you feel that there will ever be a set of universal rules in football? I mean you have the issue of homegrown players in the epl, non-euro quota in serie a, no part ownership in the epl, and many other intricacies. I just think the lack of uniformity makes things much more difficult. I'm sure it will never happen but I guess I'll just keep dreaming. {Ed002's Note - There never will.}

I thought the football clubs and players contracts are mutually agreeable and either the player or the club can terminate it on condition that damages for termination are paid. ed. could you enlighten me on this. {Ed002's Note - It is a large and complex subject and there is not the time to do it here so easily. Sorry}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

What about a site that has this info? {Ed002's Note - I don't know of any. Sorry. Perhaps Google something like +fifa +"article 17" +28 plus "3 years" and you will get part or all of an explanation.}

Agree0 Disagree0

22 Jul 2011 13:58:54
we are damn missing sharkey :( ..does anyone know where is he now?i very much doubt he is been appointed as one of the EDs here, after the site got expanded, though i should agree that Ed002 and Ed018 is doing a great job to compensate his absencei suspect either of them is sharkey...LOL am i guessing it right? *hugs* ;)

I hope we sign atleast one of each

Defenders:
Dani Alves £45m - £50m
Van der Wiel £15m
Sergio Ramos £35m

Midfielders:
Joao Moutinho £35m
Ganso £23m - £25m
Modric £30m - £32m

Fowards:
Neymar £50m
Lukaku £18m
?

Selling:
Paulo Ferriera
Brainslav ivanovic
Hilario
Malouda
Drogba
Anelka

So the squad will look like this:

Goalkeeper - Cech
Right Back - Van Der Wiel
Centre Back - David Luiz
Centre Back - Terry
Left Back - Cole, Bertrand, Van Aanholt
Right Centre Mid - lampard
Centre Mid - Moutinho
Left Centre Mid - Modric
Right Wing - Kakuta
Striker - Torres
Left Wing - Lukaku

Believable0 Unbelievable14

Really? That's a weaker squad than what we started with

Agree0 Disagree0

No way is Alves worth that much. In your Bizarro World, Kalou would sell for £25M

Agree with the 2nd poster - not much of an improvement, more of a step backwards. You're another one of those people who think that Modric is worth over £30M? Wow... And why even list Neymar if you're resigned to the fact that we'd only get Lukaku?

Agree0 Disagree0

Is that the same Lukaku he then plays at left wing...

Don't know why I even bother looking at these sometimes

Agree0 Disagree0

22 Jul 2011 10:13:16
seems that Lukaku will not sign for us. Another player who snubs us...

Believable3 Unbelievable11

And where did you get that from? I've not seen any articles that say that he is/would snub us. Please don't quote a tabloid blurb either...

Agree0 Disagree0

Sky Sports said that AVB said that at this moment we will not be bringing in another striker. Wonderful. We have shot ourselves on the foot by offering these mediocra players like Kalou and Malouda a comfortable job that they do no want to loose. Difficult situation.

Believable9 Unbelievable1

I've posted this at another website... It seems as if:

1) AVB is not trying to rock the boat with our existing strike force until deals can be made.

2) The board is once again pulling the strings and is trying to milk one more season out of the senior citizens until they can leave on a free transfer.

3) He is more delusional than Ancelotti, or has a God Complex and feels as if he can turn water into wine with this squad.

Any way you look at it, we're screwed.

Agree0 Disagree0

Why on earth investing all this money on very young players that will be useful in a couple of years time when we have to buy ready players now to help us bring back the title? We have lost it. And when I still see that clown Malouda still in the team it makes think that actually there will not be any majors signings.

Believable8 Unbelievable0

"And when I still see that clown Malouda still in the team..."

Hahaha I tell you, every time that I turn on the TV to watch a Chelsea match and see that this guy and his fellow person Kalouless are in the starting XI I want to cry...

Agree0 Disagree0

An Editor needs to explain to me why the word "i-d-i-o-t" is always censored and changed to "person". Or is it just my posts? That makes no sense whatsoever. What's odd is I see the words "moran" and "clown" thrown out here quite often.

Is the "I" word now worse than the "elf" word? {Ed002's Note - Neither are as bad as the "J" word.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Oh man... it changed "m-o-r-a-n" to moron and "e-l-f" to "eff"... I give up, or maybe I'll join the priesthood.

"J" word? Martin Jol?

Agree0 Disagree0

Watched the game and we were awful especially in the first half it was a joke, both malouda and kalou played on the left and we had noone on the right. i know it looks improbable that we sign aguero from reading the previous posts but i cant stress how much we need someone like him or hulk on the right as well as a creative midfielder. i have faith in avb but we really do need some new signings

Believable11 Unbelievable2

I agree, and if you watch hulk videos from last season he is exactly what we need, I've turned into his biggest fan, he would be perfect for premiership, quick powerful strong skilful, and I hope to we get pastore and I not try get nasri on cheap, AVB needs to get some players in and give them time to gel with tnhe team

Agree0 Disagree0

Oh dear LMAO 1-0 with 12 men on the pitch(ref) we beat them 6-3 and even arsenal beat them 4-0 no doubt about it come next may you will be looking up the table and see the super reds in there rightful place on top 4 places above the chelski bad lot
LFC

Agree0 Disagree0

Yea, I agree, the way we are playing united may finish above us in first again...

Oh, u meant lfc? Lol, never gonna happen.

Agree0 Disagree0

"Oh, u meant lfc? Lol, never gonna happen."

I'm a Chelsea supporter, but looking at this current team and the possibility that AVB will stand pat, I wouldn't laugh off that Pooh supporters comment. Could happen. At the very best we could end up in 3rd behind the Manc clubs, maybe even fighting for a CL qualifying spot with Gooners/Spuds/Pooh.

Agree0 Disagree0

Ohh were gona finish above a team who cannot beat Hull City
