Chelsea thread

im really perplexed about the selling of stoch. we loan him out, he plays well, gets better, wins the dutch league, surely the next step isnt sell him to a turkish club ffs

as for joe cole, i would much prefer to see him go to tottenham, no real reasoning behind that.

i think the right move for ballack would be to head to wolfsburg

Yossi is class.

 
im just not completely sold he will perform week in week out for us

With reference to earlier postings about the new away and 3rd kits for 2010/11, the release dates are as follows:

* Away - 5th August
* 3rd - 26th August

Benayoun is finally officially a blue. �5m is the fee mentioned.

jeez the 5th is a while to wait.

He's kwalitee. A really good player to have in the squad. Was crucial for us in our late charge for the title a couple of seasons ago.

yea saw him a few times and he seemed good, but that may have just been in comparison to a poor liverpool team.

well with ballack and cole gone there is a bit more room to accomadate him so we will see.

first pre season game is 17th july vs palace, cant wait already

got some interesting games pre season against eintracht frankfurt and hamburg i think.

We weren't poor then! We came 2nd!

 
yea should clarify, cant really remember how he played when you came 2nd but talking on last year he seemed ok. he was good when we visited anfield.

hopefully he slots into the squad nicely and helps win some trophies

Ah, fair enough. Yeah. I think he'll be a useful squad player for you.

We also have Ajax away on Friday 23rd July which should be a decent game.

oh yea forgot about ajax, that should be good

GK rhys taylor off to crewe on loan

new training kits are out, i like

Paying $200k a week for Torres is a crime.

On current form, I'd have to agree with that. However, I'm doubtful the move will go through after he crocked his hamstring again yesterday. There's no way Roman will shell out �50m-odd for an injured player.

as ive said before if riccy is fit and ready to play then im sure we can get another quality year out of him. as for ashley, well i really hope we keep him

hahaa..I thought you were serious then for a minute!

we all know the best striker is drogba

No - it's Rooney

Here's a link to the new away strip - due out in a couple of weeks:

Essien back vs Palace tonight      Downey262010-07-17 18:36:35

good win all things considered. more about getting players back and giving some of the young guys a run around

Very happy Essien is playing again. Hes our marquee signing this season

Cech out for am month 

will miss the start of the season but luckily for us its not the hardest start

are you lot signing anyone much this off season?
chelsea transfer news has been unusually quiet..

Yeah... Kun?

yea it has been quiet, nore talk of whos possibly leavig than coming in. as you know we got yossi, also got a youngster called kalas who we jsut loaned back to his club

Waiting for Man City to COMPLETE ALL all there signings....... will keep the price down for us before Chelsea start buying

bugger......Cech out for a month

 

darn looks as though alex is out for a month aswell.

in other news vuvuzelas have been banned from the bridge

3-1 loss to Ajax. Ross Turnbull looks to have blown his chance of being number 1 while Cech is out.

was nowhere near our full strength team but a dissapointing result none the less.

Talk of David Luiz coming in though..
