Keisuke Honda

[Term-X 7,891]

Technically gifted 24 year old attacking midfielder, would be good for the 'chelsea brand' in japan.

Keisuke Honda has admitted to his frustration at current club CSKA Moscow.

Speculation has suggested the Japan international could seal a switch away from Russia this summer.

The likes of Liverpool and Arsenal have been linked with a move for his services, although neither club have yet to comment on the rumours.

Honda has confirmed his intention to leave CSKA Moscow, telling Japan's Nikkan Sports newspaper: "It's agonising.

"I can't stay like this. I said I wanted Japan to win the World Cup. I was MVP at the Asian Cup in January but I'm still not happy with things.

"Right now I'm in a rut still being at CSKA. This wasn't what I planned. If I don't accept it, I can't live my life. But if I get too used to my circumstances I'll come to a halt.

"That scares me."

"GOOD BUSINESS "

[zolayes 14,489]

prefer a Ferrari to a Honda even though its RED ,,,a BLUE Ferrari would be the ultimate,,,,,

[Kieran. 6,317]

I would take Honda in a heartbeat.

Only it did not send him to Chelsea, but this was

[ZanSnake 1,211]

Fuck yes!

Is Japan's best player, and i would LOVE to see an Japanese player in Chelsea blue.

Japan + Chelsea = £££

I'd love to see Honda at Chelsea, he was absolutely exceptional in the world cup. He is like their new Nakata but better imo and is genuine quality. I'd have him no doubt.

Wont happen tho if we aint actually linked with him but if he opens his mouth a bit more, he might attract us

[St Abramovich 175]

Would be a great signing, probably cheap and will sell enough shirts in Japan to make up for his fee.

[TomCFC 356]

I can only see us getting him to help us as a brand in Asia like Park for United. I'm indifferent to him as a footballer.

[eldo 868]

Good to make up the numbers, nothing more.

I would rather sign another CSKA player, and that's Dzagoev.

[Kieran. 6,317]

[True_Blue 469]

He would be a much better option than the midlefielders we are looking at the moment.

[Madmax 9,219]

The day we start signing players for their shirt sales is the day we stop being a serious football club that wants to make history.

[Kieran. 6,317]

I feel that if we were interested in him, we could swap him for Zhirkov. Zhirkov wants to return to Russia, I think.

[Vincent 402]

Good player for selling shirts and stuff in Asia, no where near our level. Plus they make much money in Rusland, plus he won't leave for less then 10m.

[Duppy Conqueror 1,449]

quality player,is good enough for Chelsea(as a squad member),just i wouldn`t play him as a "number 10" as he i think would be better as the left side of midfield in a diamond or in a 3 man midfield,the position that Josh should end up playing....i`ve not written off Yury yet though,i think if Guus returns we will see the best of Yury so Honda would be back up for a lot of positions but i don`t see him becoming a long term regular starter for us,albeit a very valuable squad member.

No where near where Chelsea should be, i've seen him playing for years in Holland. He was great in the second division, the second division, the second division of the Dutch competition the Eredivisie also known as the Mickey Mouse League. Guus would like to play with players like Christian Eriksen from Ajax, wich i compare to a player like Josh McEachran. He is no where near our standards or what our standards should be. I also think we won't see Yuri growing, he's too scared to make mistakes he gives to many balls back on Cole - Malouda always try to find an attacking option that's why i prefer Malouda. And Honda has high wages like every player in Russia, plus he has cost them 10m and they wont let him leave for less.

Are we even being linked to him?
