Benayoun signs for Chelsea



It will be interesting to see how these two will get along!

As per official webby, the away kit will be available to pre-order starting from tomorrow, 15/07/2010. The kit will be launched on 5th of August. Here's a leak of the away kit* (It follows the WC 2010 Japan kit template)



* But as always, this could end up as 3rd kit. Cause for the past 2 seasons, everytime they speculate that something being the away, it actually ended up as the 3rd kit and vice versa.

Here's the rumoured '3rd kit' leaked picture which was circulated last month (follow the WC 2010 Mexico template):-

And Belletti have signed for Fluminense for the one last hurrah before he calls it a day.

That would be 10PM local Malaysia time tomorrow. No word by Astro yet if there's gonna be a live telecast.

I only managed to watch the last 4 mins of the game (was away from home the whole day) no thanks to the loss of feed on Astro towards the 84th minute. Here was the line-up:

4-1-2-1-2 formation.

Petr Cech (capt)
Jeffrey Bruma
Alex
Patrick van Aanholt
Ryan Bertrand
John Mikel Obi
Michael Essien
Nemanja Matic
Josh McEachran
Franco Di Santo
Daniel Sturridge

Subs: Hilario, Ross Turnbull, Ben Gordon, Nathaniel Chalobah, Jack Cork, Conor Clifford, Daniel Philliskirk, Michael Woods, Kaby Djalo, Milan Lalkovic, Scott Sinclair.

Ross Turnbull
Billy Clifford
Jeffrey Bruma
Patrick van Aanholt
Ryan Bertrand
John Mikel Obi
Michael Essien (capt)
Nemanja Matic
Josh McEachran
Franco Di Santo
Daniel Sturridge

Subs: Hilario, Nathaniel Chalobah, Rohan Ince, Jack Cork, Conor Clifford, Kaby Djalo, Milan Lalkovic, Scott Sinclair.

Subs: Vermeer, Blind, Demy De Zeeuw, Emanuelson, Donald, Suk, Bonevacia.

We're being caught at the back again. Comical Turnbull. Sigh. It's not even a JABULANI!

Ramires is seriously overrated IMHO. Just one 'good' game against Chile, immediately everyone is buying into the hype. I'd rather we get Neymar to be honest. But given the boring transfer window that we have had for the past 2 seasons, the signing of Ramires (if it happens) will make us feel like we have signed Beckham!

I doubt this is an official pre-season match for the senior squad. It's not even listed in the official site nor discussed in the cfcnet forum. As far as I'm concerned, we need not look too much into this. Yeah, for all we know, it could be the family & friends of Chelsea vs Wycombe.

Please note that tonight's match against Eintracht Frankfurt will not be shown live as CH811 is currently showing the FIFA U-19 Women Final whereas CH816 is showing the Emirates Cup. However, our 2nd match in Germany, against Hamburg has been confirmed by ASTRO to be shown live on AUGUST 4TH, 2355 hrs.

Sorry guys, the match is gonna kick-off at 10.30pm instead of 9.30pm. I'm following stamfordlion on Twitter now since Livescore website is having a technical problem.

Hilario and JT at fault. This seems very familiar. I think JT did stg similar for England or was it Rio?

All the best to Deco. He has officially signed for Fluminense. Thank you for his service. 6 goals in total for us.
