We wont get Azpilicueta and Maicon, its gonna be either or, and it was me earlier who put up the post about loads of attacking mids to fill them 3 attacking spots so obvs i would love to see Lucas Moura in Blue(not Birmingham now lol)
ChelseaL

Agree0 Disagree0

Mata is more of a cam, and hazard and marin can both play lw

Agree0 Disagree1

This is not fifa! cam's do not exist in real life! he plays off the striker, in the hole, the no.10. thats what it is called!

Agree3 Disagree6

Mata plays number 10 or in the hole. personally i dont want maicon hes just money grabbing before his carer is over. sturridge is seriously not what we need on the wing, hes s***e. back up to torres is where sturridge needs to play his proper position. modric no thanks mceachran needs to be played he can pass and create space better than alot of players. BLUEBOY1

Agree4 Disagree0

You are a goon, cam stands for central attacking midfielder which is in fact a position

I do not see a reason why people disagree at least none has given any really different opinion .

Guys, watch out for KDB.He has got everything to set the League alight.He will definitely be the surprise of the season.He has got everything to be a star.
roan

Believable3 Unbelievable0

Spot on mate. i hope he is not loaned out, he has looked very impressive for a couple of seasons now and will almost certainly be a future star

trueblue012

Agree0 Disagree0

How do you know this? A lot of people have commented on KDB, where is the info coming from?

I also hope he stays, he is versatile and can pick a pass, i believe if he is surrounded by quality players he will improve, and could shine.

Agree1 Disagree0

Yerp im all for debruyne having his chance he is one of the most versatile players in our squad. either wing, playmaker, in the hole, and ill tell you very very good at playing box to box midfield (lamps). both footed a s*** hot strike on the ball aswell.

Agree0 Disagree0

I think luiz will be world class centre back along with cahil, but I think this season he would be brilliant as holding midfielder,
Ramires. Luiz.
Hulk. Mata. Hazard.
Torres
He is good going forward and is good on ball, lampard can be big. Uh player as impact sun and Mikel as we have so many games this season,

Believable2 Unbelievable2

Please everyone get this idea of luiz playing cdm out of your heads. we have mikel, oriol and essien for one position, we're not going to play a cb out of position over all three.

trueblue012

Agree7 Disagree3

Trueblue012, Essien is too injury prone, mikel isnt predictable enough, and we have only seen half a season from Romeu so. And considering Luiz's defensive problems a move to cdm would prove a brilliant decision as i think cdm's should be amazing going backwards or forwards
ChelseaL

Agree1 Disagree5

Sorry i meant Mikel is too unpredictable^
ChelseaL

Agree1 Disagree1

What are Luiz defensive problems?

Agree1 Disagree1

I agree. romeu is still young but i believe he is our best who we have atm. mikel had two games where we defended made him look better cuz he had mre to do, he still cant pass forward or run! essien if he ever gets back to what he was 3 years ago then he is obviously first choice. luiz can pass and create i think its a gd shout! BLUEBOY1

Agree0 Disagree2

Is it possible you mean to say he is too predictable, if so i disagree, i don't know if you'll recall, but, in our double winning season mikel launched a 60 yard pass to anelka for a tap in, now i realise that is a one time thing, but a player that has that ability is anything but predictable, although i would have to say he doesn't pass forward often enough for someone of his quality, on the other hand i think his defending has improved immensely since then

Agree2 Disagree1

I have just seen a text saying about luis and terry. I have spoken to various friends all are in agreement has RDM not thought of playing Luis in midfield. What a force he would be there.

Ed do you know if those players who were involved in euros will play against Seattle on Wednesday? Nice work eds.
Slocfc {Ed002's Note - I have no idea.}

Believable0 Unbelievable0

No mate they won't , but they will be involved in the game against PSG and MLS all-stars.

Oh come on, lets get real. This is not happening, not now, not ever. We will however likely add somemore mediocrity to the squad in the form of Schurlle at an inflated price or if We're really lucky Malouda might get a contract extension (sigh).

Believable1 Unbelievable7

What's not happening? If you are talking about signing 'star players' or world class players, then I think the capture of Hazard should show you Chelsea's intent. Considering he was/is one of the worlds most sort after young players.

IB.

Agree1 Disagree0

Im intrigued...who would you like to see join Chelsea?

Agree1 Disagree0

Are you a Chelsea fan?Because if you are then you have been asleep for the past 10 years.

Sometimes You have to pay the prices asked if You want to improve the squad, otherwise You are left with the same players that were apparently not good enough last season. The only decent signing We have made to date is Hazard, Marin has been poor for at least 18 months. We're linked with Schurlle who is very average but because He's German He is way over hyped. We have just won the Champions League and this is our opportunity to strengthen. We obviously want players but seemingly on the cheap and have an attitude of well that's our final offer and if You dont want it We'll move onto someone average and over spend on them. Or even worse We just keep the same squad and assume they're good enough. We should be breaking the bank to sign players that will improve us not just make up the numbers.

Believable1 Unbelievable11

Not really sure what you're basing this on? When have we ever been priced out of a transfer?

IB.

Agree2 Disagree0

Hulk?

Agree2 Disagree1

Negotiations are still going on with hulk though?

Rowan

Agree2 Disagree0

The Hulk situation is still ongoing! The transfer window doesn't close tomorrow! Oscar is a very real posibility too as is Azpiliqueta...so that, along with Marin (who, no matter how bad his past 18mths have been, is better than Malouda) and Hazard, is already an upgrade in a few positions compared to last season - when might I add we did win the Champions League with what was apparently a really poor squad!

Surewould

Agree1 Disagree0

Apparently? we was lucky in the cups and were terrible in the league even after AVB left

Agree2 Disagree4

Marin had injuries last season so u saying he's been terrible for the past 18 months was probably because he was injured u fool.

Blue con

Agree1 Disagree0

So, we were lucky to win both the trophies then .Also, Lionel Messi not scoring against us for 8 games is because of the luck factor!The last time I heard is that you make your own luck.If that "average squad "according to you were that lucky ,imagine how lucky we will be with an better "average squad".Well then I guess we will win everything this time.I am fine with that.
roan

Agree2 Disagree0

So roan are you saying you would go in with the same squad as last year & think we would do well this season coming ? we would end up 6th again in the league maybe 5yh. & come on we were lucky in the CL, even i would admit that and i have gt blue tinted glasses lol BLUEBOY1

Agree0 Disagree1

No,as I said said you make your own luck.Our side had certain qualities(hard work ,determination,spirit,strength etc) that with the right tactic proved very very effective.It may not have been the best side in the world ,but it was not gifted the cups either.So,you see it is not all down to luck.
