New number 10 Hazard.

JM say 16-18 won't loan out. He only loan those who can get first team in other clubs. That's why solanke, Christensen etc will play for u21 while training with first team.

His hairline doesn't help his shaved look.

So what about Torres then? Last time Torres and Drogba compete for first spot, now they compete for the second spot? Keeping Torres this season just feels weird for me. At this point, there's more reasons to let him go rather than to keep him.

As usual we are still going to hope for the best from him. And who knows, may be the lesser risk and reliance on him this time around might do the trick.

Any news on Moses/Marin? I think they should have been told to look for clubs eh?

Courtois shared thelb7i's video of his interview on his own fb page, and he tagged Chelsea's official facebook account as well.

lololol. Someone might get in trouble. Hope they don't take down thelb7i's channel.

Courtois good guy, want to gip other pipu see. ChelseaTV stingy

Too bad the Madrid rumours for Ramires died out already. Surely can rake in more cash if he's a manager favourite

nice article. You can go on and on about Mou, whether its positives or negatives; however this writer has a very simple yet witty perspective towards him.

Good call. Probably also Filipe Luis.

looks like don't have.

Eden with a fresh new number.

What formasi now? Azpi play wing?

He got a bit of the ball, but he masuk from wrong side, so benefit of the doubt goes to the attacker

So if don't register, cannot play PL games or any games? iinm, got separate registration for UCL, does the same rules comply for that too?

After registration gaotim, can change later on or only during transfer window?

LVG is doing great so far IMHO. I think the back 3 formation is going to do some decent damage to teams in the league. By the looks of it, it's going to have a similar impact in the league as Mou's first stint at Chelsea with his 4-3-3. One thing I like about LVG set up is that Mata plays in a number 10 position, but there's two strikers in front of him to play into.

But in a 38-game league, I don't think that formation is fool-proof. For their matches against us, it's going to be down to a tactical battle. In Mou we trust.

Khedira too similar role to Matic for me. Yaya attacking traits too imba, that's why gooding. Matic+Khedira.. solid? yes, but effective attack? not really. I think Pogba better, his attacking style more silky (relative to DMs la). MVG for me is Matic understudy.

If no new mids arriving then:

Matic+Fab for attacking games (Oscar play AM)
Matic+Mikel for defensive games (Fab/Oscar play AM)

LOL at Lamps pic. I'm actually quite happy for him getting to play in the PL for slightly longer.

Agree with the points on Schrulle. He has great attitude on and off the pitch. I think he's very very valuable to us. For our style, he playing as striker not suitable, but as wide AM or winger, he still can deliver, and his workrate is good also.

While on that point, I remember one game where we were going gung ho last portion of the game, JM brought on Schrulle. But the Ivanovic make the stupiak decision to stay up front, which forced Schrulle to play RB

I can honestly see him in the first XI ahead of Willian. Better if JM allow AMs to rotate, Schrulle and Hazard can keeping swapping wings to cause problems (since both of them favour to play from the left).

Howard Webb retires.

Our top scorer numbers have been very poor last few seasons. As long this time, someone will get a decent return. My money is on costa.

I had the same feeling every single season (since Torres arrived) but for different reason each season.

1) Got Mata and AVB, can play his style
2) No Drogba edi, can give him more confindence. Got Hazard
3) JM's back, he can make Torres successful again
