Cakir's appointment sparked conspiracy theories because it was made by a committee headed by fellow Turk Senes Erzik, who has business connections to Barca's sponsors UNICEF.

Chelsea outs:Ferreira,Bosingwa,Drogba,Sturridge, Malouda,van Aanholt(As Bertrand is ready to take over from cole)

inns:Azpilcuetta,Cavani or Falcao,Adam Johnson,Muniain,Giovinco

Give el Nino another season if we can't agree a swap deal with Athletico for Falcao.Also think Lamps and JT have got one good season left in them.JT maybe 2 or 3 more depending one squad size and rotation.

Believable3 Unbelievable0

We deffo need a right back, creative attackin central mid & left and right wingers

Agree1 Disagree0

What about creative CM?

Agree2 Disagree0

Piazon has to play a bigger role and also giovinco will help

Agree1 Disagree0

We need someone to back up mata he can't play every game he's getting fatigued..Maybe someone like de Bruyne to play a big role next season and Piazon being more involved think a big money signing isn't necessary should rather invest in other positions...

Believable1 Unbelievable0

De Bruyne can play CM&AM maybe better than LW&RW.

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed do u or any 1 know what happened with drogba today? Is he fit for tomorrow i think we will really struggle without him {Ed002's Note - He travelled but I think they will look again at the injury.}

Hey ED even if Chelsea get champions league football for next season do you think they will struggle attracting big players like in previous seasons?And do you think di Matteo will struggle attracting them?tanks mate {Ed002's Note - It obviously makes it more difficult without Champions League and Di Matteo may not be part of it.}

Cech, Azpilcuetta, Cahill, Terry, Bertrand, Fernando, Romeu, Ramires, Mata, Gaitan/Muniain, Torres, Falcao..

Believable2 Unbelievable4

Sorry torres/falcao

Agree1 Disagree0

Gaitan is joining MUTD. It is done deal. {Ed002's Note - No it isn't.}

Agree0 Disagree1

Fernando, Romeu, Ramires...still no central creativity.

Surewould

Agree0 Disagree0

You can always play mata deeper because we playing 2 holding midfielders and Muniain isnt the worst creative player,if you want more you can play de Bruyne either left or right of Mata

Agree0 Disagree0

Gaitan isn't sir Alex's type of signing he won't buy a player that will be expensive and come straight into the team unless its a british lad like Ashley young

Agree0 Disagree0

If we manage to get past barca, who would people rather have in the final Madrid or bayern? Personally I'd rather face Madrid because Munich have had blistering form at home for a while now

Nova

You never wana play a final on the other teams home soil

Question for everyone, seems we're at a bit of a crossroads, would you prefer us going back to the big powerful team or become a more skillfull, passing team

SHED END

Believable0 Unbelievable1

Personally I would take the passing skillfull attacking option, we have mata who has been a key player this season he has just lacked players to link with, I think this suits are fullbacks to as cole and ivanovic are class when they get down the flanks, also if we keep Torres this will help him loads.

Personally I just want to win.

I'm just happy for us to do whatever it takes!

Blue John

Agree1 Disagree0

I think we need a solid team formation and style of play but a must for us is getting in creative players,goal scorers and speedsters who are actually effective on the ball unlike Kalou!

Agree2 Disagree0

I can't see why you can't have both?

Surewould

Why is everyone unhappy with a point at Arsenal!Whatever way you look at it ,it is a good point as almost every other team has lost there.Why is everyone suddenly blaming Torres for not performing ,though it was not his best game he played well held the ball up and passed it around and made decent runs into the box!It were his passes that led to Sturridge's two strikes on goal.His has modified his positioning a bit to fit into the Chelsea system rather than going into the box all the time and not receiving balls ,he is now standing on the edge of the box waiting for cut backs which never came during this game thanks to Sturridge.Which striker scores without service all the time ,once or twice they might do it but no all the time,example Messi against us!He did not receive a single pass except for one Bertrand cross which he just failed to connect and the cross was no where near the six yard box.That is a truly pathetic stat to judge a striker's capabilities on.As i said earlier, bring any striker on ,they would struggle with our style of play in the league as it has been proven by both Drogba and Torres.True ,we have done very well recently and we have turned to the old style of playing now.But lets keep in mind that this is only a stop gap measure and we have to improve and gradually change the style of football to a fast passing pacy style which we all want to see and players like Torres , Mata ,Sturridge(if he improves),Ramires are the way forward.Looking at the fixtures in the league there is a very good chance of finishing fourth Newcastle have to play us and city so if we win the rest our games we get the fourth spot. Lets hope we defend well against Barca,we have to be even better than we were at the bridge.Legends like Lampard ,Drogba and Terry deserve to win the CL .

Have been flat out with work lately fella's didnt even get to see the game, extremely glad to hear bertrand had a cracker! I honesty think 4th is ours for the taking. Newcastle play us and city, both games i reckon they will lose. And even better we get to smash pool twice! Tottenham are done imo. Barca done at the Nou should give us confidence. Jono, my godfather owned a decent share of melb victory so i guess them, but dont follow A league. If zola becomes manager that will change! Melbourne CFC

munain or hazard on the left...

this would make my wiener tingle a little bit....

Believable2 Unbelievable1

I dont think Munain would make it in the prem, Di Maria would be my choice, his assist record is outstanding.

PB

Agree3 Disagree1

Finally i see something i like even more than i would have done :) Muniain is probably not an option, given the tag the basques have put on him. Di Maria has got a great amount of assists, but... Have you seen him play recently?

He gets to be as frustrating as Malouda and Kalou at times and his stupidity going into the tackles is one of a kind. He is probably the most booked winger in the world :)

I still would like him over Muniaian. Don't really know about Hazard and do know that Goetze would be best, but that is fantasy.

With that group Romeu and McEachran would be screwed.

Dont fancy most of that mate

SHED END

What the hell are you on about mate? Some of the things you have said are crazy and are never going to happen, plus half the names you have mentioned wouldn't help improve our squad at all, plus romeu to Watford? At the start of the season he was class! He will be pushing for our first team next season.

Nick88ftl

Agree2 Disagree0

Maicon, krasic, jaskelinen and bent no thanks.

Agree0 Disagree0

Krasic was absolutly best Juve player last season. Conte plays 3-5-2 that is only reason why Krasic doesn't play. Spurs,CFC&few spanish clubs are showing serious interest in him simply he is one of best right midfielders in the world.

Agree0 Disagree0

Who is this bloak ..nah mate seriously Bent 27mil?Torres 38mil?omw and you think Hazard is only 3mil more expensive than bent?ha now thats a joke!
