new thread...new kit for me as well............after 12 years..finally i got myself GENUINE chelsea kit...

Well personally i think KALOU and MALOUDA have improve greatly on their body strength compare when they were just here. Especially MALOUDA he can now dribble and hold player back while playing in the middle of the field.

But selling of STOCH is most probably the player wanted to go, ROMAN surely dont need to sell to buy. Just hope there is a BUY BACK CLAUSE in his contract.

we can consider ourselves as 'TREBLE WINNERS'

this could also be an indication that we're going to purchase a huge right midfield?

Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich has flown to South Africa to try to complete the signing of Fernando Torres, with sources telling Soccernet he is willing to pay up to £55 million.

Fernando Torres: On World Cup duty with Spain

Liverpool are believed to value Torres at around £70 million and refused to respond to speculation over his future until they had a new manager in place. Now Roy Hodgson has succeeded Rafa Benitez, he is evaluating the situation regarding five big-name stars at Anfield who are reviewing their own futures.

Torres has made it clear that he is focusing on the World Cup, but with the tournament drawing to a close, talks between all the interested parties are believed to be underway.

Barcelona are also reported to be interested but they are struggling to raise the funds. Torres himself is also unsure he wants to return to Spain at the moment.

A well-placed source told Soccernet: "Abramovich has authorised the bid of £50 million, and he's not expected to go much higher than that ... [but] I would think he might go to £55 million.

"Without any other creditable bidder, he sees no reason to go any higher. It's quite clear that Liverpool could get more from Manchester City, and the player could earn more from Manchester City, but the player doesn't want to go there. He wants Champions League football and the chance to win the major honours which he can do at Chelsea.2

The final cost were Torres to move to Stamford Bridge could top £100 million, as Chelsea will make the striker the highest paid player in the Premier League topping £200,000-a-week with his bonuses. A five-year contract would be worth £50 million to the player.

Get off bro! go back to your thread. U win nothing last season (fullstop).
