Ed, is there a chance of Cesc Fabregas joining Chelsea?thanks. {Ed002's Note - I am going to say no.}

Believable1 Unbelievable3

He'll stay at Arsenal there is no real interest from Barca, it's just a game for Barca fans.

Agree2 Disagree3

Ed, What possible reason could Chelsea have for not going in for Samir Nasri? The guy is an outstanding creative mid, and exactly what were lacking. I hear he wants a big wage, well if this is the only reason we havent made any type of move for him then its simply not good enough for me. Just imagine Nasri playing in behind Torres ed, imagine the chances Torres would get! You must see it anyone in the right mind of football would. Hopefully Villas Boas is clever enough to take advantage and raid Arsenal for him.

Believable1 Unbelievable7

I think nasri would be a class buy, him and nani.

Agree0 Disagree6

They would. But I doubt they will be on market.

In the words of a fat Spanish waiter, this is...FACT

Given Chelsea FC's need for a creative influence in our midfield i decided to look at who had the most assists in the Premier League last season; here is the top 10...

Nani (18), Drogba (15), Fabregas (14), Arshavin, Baines, Brunt, Rooney & Young (all 11), Adam & Barton (both 9).

I thought Modric was the creative answer to our problems, where does he come on the list? 103rd on a grand total of 3!

Oh! he must be a big goal scoring midfield player then? No! He is 122nd in that catagory with a grand total of 3!

How much do Spurs want for what is a tidy midfield player who can keep the ball well? Josh can do that!!!

I think we should look elsewhere for our creative midfield needs!!!

LUCKY13

Believable8 Unbelievable7

Remember, you only get an assist credited to you if the recipient of your pass actually scores a goal.

Agree7 Disagree1

There are better targets than Modric.!

Agree6 Disagree1

Modric is not even up to the standard, that we currently have at the club.
He is average at best, we can do a lot better than that.

Agree3 Disagree1

AVB has indicated that he doesnt see any great need to have a mass cklearout in the summer..Please, Please use this opportunity to get rid of Kalou, Mikel, Anelka, Flo, Bos and buy a bit of hunger and quality.. my choices would be Diarra/Alonso (dm) Aguero (No 10) Robben (LW) Pastore (cm) VDW (RB)

Believable4 Unbelievable0

Diarra&Alonso are worst than Essien&JOM.
Robben will never sign Chelsea again. Pastore gamble(plays in Mickey Mouse league with 4-5 teams that could play in EPL rest is not good enough for Championship). VDW possible if he doesn't go to MCFC. Sneijder should be nummber one target, Eto'o as well 9 goals in 8 matches in CL last season. We need RM or RW-what do you think how will Neymar with his 120 pounds weight fit in EPL.

Agree0 Disagree1

Sturridge has to remain at the club, he's a home grown player, with quality, who has proved he can do a good job in the Prem.
If Chelsea was to sell him and get £10mil or less this would be an outrage, Jordan Henderson was worth £20mil to Liverpool; anyone who saw the England U21's had to see Sturridge is double the player Henderson is. Carroll is worth £30mil; Sturridge will be a better player than Carroll!!!

Believable3 Unbelievable7

Caroll doesn't worth more than 15mil. That is LFC problem because they have payed 35mil.

Agree4 Disagree2

Just wanted the fans view of how the system would work if Falcao (looks likely) joins?

would you go back to 4-4-2 and a diamond even tho ppl like JT and Lamps have come out and said they prefer 4-3-3

or do you not care and think that if we get new (younger) players in earlier and get a good pre-season with say a 4-4-2 with Torres and Falcao upfront, it could work?

COME ON THE BLUES!!

Believable1 Unbelievable11

Lamps and JT are in the twilight of their Chelsea careers. I thank them for their dedication and service to the club, but to ignore a different formation because a few players (who really should be having less of a role anyway because of their age) prefer a 4-3-3 is ridiculous. Besides, the diamond isn't the only 4-4-2 formation. Just because Lampard isn't suitable for the tip doesn't mean that another player couldn't play there (Kakuta anyone? Not to mention a number of transfer targets we've been linked with).

Agree10 Disagree1

I AGREE, LAMPARD SHOULD BE STARTING ON THE BENCH. WE WOULD SEE A TOTALLY DIFFERENT FRANK THIS WAY.

Agree7 Disagree1

Cech
VDW - Luiz - Terry - Cole
Essien
Ramires - Lampard/Mceachran
Sneijder/Pastore
Torres Falcao

Agree2 Disagree8

Quite possible David Luiz might go to Barcelona he is far more important to Barcelona than Fabregas. {Ed018's Note - Barcelona is not in the position to spend big this summer. And there is nothing suggesting that Luiz is open for a move.

Agree1 Disagree0

Falcao will be new Zola!

Believable12 Unbelievable4

Have you just made that up!

Agree7 Disagree10

LOL no one ever new bout him before this week.

Agree1 Disagree9

Yeah! Who had heard of the player who broke the goal scoring records in the Europa League?

Agree7 Disagree1

By "no one", you're talking about yourself right?

Agree8 Disagree0

Pls Ed002, don't be offended by this question: are you a man or a woman? {Ed018's Note - haha, what type of question is this}

Believable0 Unbelievable5

Other Ed's have referred to 002 as "he", so unless he's a cross dresser... {Ed002's Note - I am not a cross-dresser. However, when ED001 hits the town on a Saturday night ....}

Agree8 Disagree0

Hahahahaha to ed002's comment. Love ur work Ed002 all the way from Australia

Agree2 Disagree10

K.P.Boateng just signed for AV Milan. Last season he was Genoa player on loan to ACM with buy clause 7.5mil euros.
He was available last year for mil pounds even after his excellent performance on WC not even one serious EPL team showed interest in him.
This says everything about EPL top scouts.

Believable0 Unbelievable4

Is there any chance of buying him now ed? {Ed002's Note - Boateng has never been an option.}

Agree2 Disagree0

Unfortunately
