Dear Ed002

Long time lurker on this site, so first off amazing work and big thanks for every fully informing post you provide. Impossible to get such usable info for free these days but you guys keep giving hehe especially on the conspiracy page so big thanks to all the Eds.

I was wondering what’s really Mr. Abramovich’s stance towards the players now. For sure disappointment is there but is it true that a major player sale is going to take place (as in more than 6 players from the starting First team) . I know if any acceptable bid for any player comes in and the player wishes to leave then the club won’t stand in the way but are there any of our starting players now on a selling transfer list already and not in the plans from july on?

From my side, as a fan looking from the outside I really question some of the player’s commitment and loyalty after this season’s performance. No matter who is appointed as coach next season and might want to work with all the players available but some players really let the club down this season. I know it’s just one season performance and last year we were Champions but What happened and The manner it did and prolonged was very unprofessional and will have a negative effect on Chelsea’s short-term future and plans.

I’m asking now since it’s more or so confirmed we don’t have champions league next season so many players’ minds will get now influenced from outsiders trying to help them. So hoping Mr. Abramovich really does axe a few of the players just to show player power is truly over in our beloved club. (here’s me hoping we play Willian and academy players only from now till end of this season hehe)

Thanks for your time Ed.

{Ed002's Note - Firstly, the owner does not sit down an make decisions about which players are to be sold. It really doesn't work like that.

Certainly players will move on from the first team squad in the summer and certainly players will be arriving. The club are already working on the way forward and there are folks now looking very closely at the loan players and fringe players as well.}

Thanks for the reply Ed.

I understand that many factors and people are involved in all and any decision taken at the club. I just wanted to see if the owner personally wanted to boot some players out.

Really happy that the loan and fringe players are seriously being considered for next years squad, hope our new manager really does integrate them.

Cheers.

{Ed002's Note - That I cannot really answer. There have certainly been two players the owner wanted gone from the club but on both occasions it was not directly football related. He will not be making football related decisions regarding sales.}

Cheers Ed, really thanks for the input on how the club works. Not going to bother to know who the 2 players were since not directly football related.

Another FA Cup to be stored in our cabinet, bring on Everton.
