Don't think the news is real. Even if the RM president really want to sell him off, he won't move away from Real Madrid.

BENAYOUN FACES LONG LAYOFF

Yossi Benayoun will undergo surgery on his Achilles on Monday.

The Israeli international returned to the club from international duty last week, and will now be out of action for approximately six months.

Two other squad members who were prevented from representing their countries due to thigh injuries, Salomon Kalou and Alex, are due to return to full training next week, while Jeffrey Bruma, who withdrew from the Dutch Under 21 squad before the game on Tuesday due to tight hamstrings, is scheduled to train as normal on Thursday.

six month of chances for Josh...hope he make full use of this opportunity..yes..opportunity with a price of losing one senior midfielder...and Conor Clifford...this also your opportunity...

anyone read benny's interview on how chelsea's doctors inexplicably missed his torn achilles injury? even after undergoing scans? apparently the israeli team doctor was the one who spotted the problem. haih...this isn't the first time i've questioned the effectiveness of our healthcare system. wouldn't mind a whole revamp of our medical staff, to be honest with u. this has happened several times, involving severe injuries. not minor ones. and that's worrying.

benny is old plus now injured long time. wasted purchase for chelsea fc.

he only 30 this year ...

lampard still play good football at 32, same as drogba.

lampard grow old with chelsea , but we dont need to buy old and put in chelsea. thats my point. see now injured somemore , not only old , injured long time. sad to hear that. hope he gets well soon , i hv nothing against benny. i like him in fact.

a quality player for 5 million. dont expect too much from benny. he is getting old, the least he could do is play well when he can.

i am actually one of the benayoun admirers when he was playing in liverpool. one of the phrase ill never forget from one of the commentators when watching a liverpool game is

"benayoun, dancinnnng in the box.."

well, nothing he can do bout the injury..i think he got unlucky with that one..he was not the kind of injury prone neither a consistent lampard type of player..hopefully he can make a tremendous comeback in 6 month..

How you guys see this? Hes hinting he want to leave soon. 24 YO..

Rooney?..lol..never think of it..

surely United fan will call him Judas if he pick other big four..but i dun see it coming..rumor will remain as rumor

Maybe it's just a rumor but the news mentioned that he turn against SAF. Woooo it's show time.

against SAF...it will be just a matter of time and boots...hahahah

if rooney can be revived, he is one hell of a dangerous player.

Its good to see Man U players turning against him that old man sudah expired.

kaka's a magical player but that was like 2 years ago. its worrying to see how he's failed to recapture that form at madrid, even after playing a fair number of minutes. no go for me, especially when u take into account his age and hefty price tag (2 important things which are really analysed by chelsea nowadays). roman will not be tempted into another sheva-like fiasco. he's too proud for that

Benayoun injury and the missed by our medical staffs is a pure unlucky...but the staffs need to improve the seriousness conducting the medical check up...

Kaka for me 50-50..because of the emergence of Josh...but with the current situation...i mean where do you think Kaka will play if he sign with us??

Lampard-Essien
Mikel

this is the top 3 midfielder now..Ramires next in the line...

If he really sign for us..we might have to sacrifice Malouda..which unlikely to happen now...

Kaka
Lampard-Essien
Mikel

....so for me..No go for him unless we got another long term injury in our top 4 midfielder..Lampard,Essien,Mikel and Ramires...

Regarding or last 4...there are several choices

Option 1

Ferriera,Ivanovic,Essien,Cole

Option 2

Ferriera,Ivanovic,Aanholt,Cole

Option 3

Ferriera,Ivanovic,Drogba?,Cole

Option 4

Ferriera,Ivanovic,Chalo,Cole

Seems like we're attempting a move for one of the best defender in the world.

And I think Terry just missing the International fixture, not the away game against Villa.

Line up for AV.
Ferreira-Ivanovic-Essien-Cole
Ramires-Mikel-Lampard
Anelka-Drogba-Malouda

Sounds good for me
Our left side's attack is back to ultimate mode.
Even when Ferreira caught out of position, we have Ramires to cover.
Ramires is getting better every match. Who knows he impressed us this week?

wow phillip lahm.. last time during world cup 2006, he was at left back. quite surprised to see him play at right back during the recent world cup. for me, i really hope the deal can go through. maybe a player exchange can offset the amount we need to pay for him. ashley cole is already 30 so having lahm as a utility player is great. i'm sure he can still play the left back position.
