woot i saw 2 player deserve a payrise

OSCAR pay was ok, young, just arrive, brazil league, unproven. MATA 2nd season if he can finish it great should be rewarded at the end of season.

You got that RIGHT !! CB, RB, CF

Erm could happen, coz we are competing with a few team for his signature, so naturally we have to beat others salary offer too. England tax is high, so some oversea player coming will want a better net pay after deducting tax so their salary will look a lot higher.

Can, just that maybe we get less than 10m. They pay less transfer fee and use it to pay his wages.

2 x LIKE for this

true and more useless if you are not bumi, got a lot A's also no use they ask u go study PERTANIAN

private college is all about money keke sure get in one.

Ya somehow i feel is the tactic problem, MIKEL and RAM was not covering each other and surely not help by LUIZ going forward too. We are not exactly defending as a team also, when press the opponent to win back the ball, the team have to press together, if only 1 individual pressing is a waste of energy. RAM are still too use to his dribbling the ball forward but if he lose the ball, we will be in a lot of trouble as it is now a double pivot means MIKEL will be at his side unlike previous 433 MIKEL is at his back, and with MIKEL speed no way he can cover.

I think MIKEL and RAM has to be more discipline, their job should be cover left right back position when they go forward, provide passing option to our 3 AM and most important stay at the midfield win back all those lose ball like clearance from corner or cross, they should stay in the middle between opponent striker and their midfielder, this most of the time will be able to stop or at least slowdown those counter. Currently RAM and MIKEL all try to venture near penalty box leaving a lot space behind. Something similar to MANU, their 2 center midfield sit back most of the times.

Not to take anything away from MOSES goal but DROGBA UCL final header are 10x harder to execute.

Chances ? if there is chances then not so bad, basically now he only has luck

so how many ? since u follow every match

That is if he is drop in the first place. Sad to say, i dont seen it gonna happen at least till a new striker comes in. At the moment, to me he is getting the preferential treatment, his current form by no means are better than STUR, but why STUR does not get the equal chance to shine ? If i am STUR i will be very frustrated, leaving for other club is the best option, if he is not given the chance to challenge a poor TORRES for 1st eleven, it will only be worse when a new striker arrive. LUKAKU make the right choice to go out on loan at WBA.

Agree, when ball arrive at TORRES leg, he will make a mess out of it then lose the ball.

guess i shall not reply him, dont want to turn football talk to a personal insult war

Anyway i think TORRES is really lucky to have come CHELSEA with so many fans supporting him, even here almost all of us does not mention offloading him unlike MALOUDA but we do expect if he is not performing he should be bench and come back stronger. I hope one day he realize that he really owe it a lot to the fans and work 10x harder to repay the fans

The lack of width i think is part of RDM tactic. Our attack now are more concentrate thru the middle, in the beginning we use to play wide with MATA at left side but it does not work because TORRES is not going to be there to head those crosses in. So now we play thru the middle, even on the wing our AM will cut inside to penalty box and try to pass to someone in the middle to tap in, no longer do high ball cross. I think is a right move to suit TORRES else we will just be crossing in the ball waiting to get clear out and lost possession.

The problem no longer lies in supply, TORRES not getting himself into position is. Getting those header from set pieces is the least we can expect from him, if taker is aiming the cross for TORRES, if he challenge the ball the chances is there for him to get a header. But not the case in open play, if he is not doing all those run and not getting into position, he will not get the ball as passing to him = losing the ball. But what really worries me is his touch or some say his decision making, even when come deep and get the ball he will make a mess of it and lose it, this is unacceptable.

We are already leaking goal, the least we need now is another attacking minded player on the field and surely not buying another player and try to get TORRES score, i think our attacking trio is good enough, a lot of team will be drooling at our 3 no.10. I would take a SCOTT PARKER anytime, a tireless player to win the ball back. But the player i really like to have at our midfield will be YAYA TOURE he big and tall physically, can pass, dribble and score

Guardiola, a gamble ?

Could not agree more, without MESSI, XAVI, INIESTA definitely would not want him to have a mega contract at CHELSEA due to the payout later. Like SAF at MANU and PEP at BARCA, they are the best coach in the world but if a club are looking for new manager, JM is still the best of the best. But i am happy to have RDM now, a manager with CHELSEA at heart and doing pretty well too consider his young managerial experience.

Huntelaar, another gamble ?

7m or FOC at the end of the season ? he is 29 though most probably has to come with big salary too and have not make the cut in big league like LA LIGA and SERIE A. Worth it ?

Of the 3 u mention i only fancy FELLAINI, at 29 HUNTELAAR not exactly fit our refreshing the squad philosophy, but his price tag is tempting. DZEKO, i dont think we even have a chance, MANC is just too rich and they can afford benching him than selling to a rival, even want sell also most probably to other league. Just like TEVEZ, he can make so much noise but in the end still stuck in MANC. Unless MANCINI sign another super striker and DZEKO fell to his unwanted list then we can just loan him like ADEBAYOR then sign on cheap

DROGBA not exactly the proven striker when we sign him but he develop and peak at CHELSEA. At his peak he is simply unplayable, i still remember him chesting down all the long ball and opponent have do double team him to stop him doing that.

To be fair i feel BENAYOUN never really given enuff time at CHELSEA to prove himself, but his age and playing position means he will have no chance to play at current CHELSEA anymore. Btw, how is MALOUDA ?

Looking at the bench, unless we are leading comfortably else MARIN will be unused sub again

how come we looks like playing at 2nd gear ?

really, we are counter attacking just now, he just jogging infront, dont even try to find space for himself or pull the defender away. He play like expecting ppl pass to his feet to tap in only

Really sad news for CHELSEA fans, RDM deserve a full season even though we know he is not RA first choice because of the late contract offer. It was so unfair to him as he have to gel so many new player and he dont even have a striker.

Seriously we cannot compare RAFA to JM, looking at their CV we know who is the superior one, but to fair anyone who takeover from JM will have a really hard time. JM not only brilliant in tactic but he build a very strong rapport with his player and instill believe in them, even RAFA is good with tactic but he is a strict person and have frosty relationship with player. So player under JM will always run extra miles and play 110% for him.

Is natural that TERRY and other senior have a lot influence to the squad, manager come and go, they are the one around keeping the squad together. Is thing happen by circumstances, and is not entirely a bad thing and i think they did a good job keeping the squad united. Well at least we dont let our player celebrate goal then turn back in shock found that he is alone We also need those senior around to show the youngster what wearing CHELSEA shirt is all about, and not just come with superstar ego playing for their personal glory. I also believe without those senior, we would not have been able to go against all odd to win the UCL. Even physically they are on the decline but on the pitch they will always push harder because they are not just fighting for their personal glory but also the club reputation.

I also think is fair for the club to offer a year contract for those over 30s, physically they are on the decline, u dont want to pay them long term contract and after a year they relax and waiting semi-retirement. Player like GIGGS and SCHOLES are on a year contract too i believe. If they love the club and still able to contribute, i dont see a problem signing a year contract, but football player career is short if they would like a long term contract to secure their retirement then we shall wish him all the best at a new club and thanks for their past contribution.

PS: my view on GIGGS and SCHOLES, even though their positive influence in dressing is invaluable, but i believe the truth is SAF just dont much fund to get sign the replacement since the american takeover. Bringing SCHOLES out of retirement instead of signing a player is just unbelievable, a club like MANU stature, no player will reject playing for them, is more like they are on a tight budget.
