With Lampard, Ashley Cole and David Luiz departing, the Blues have removed £400,000-a-week from their wage bill. That looks like good business, if true.
They are totally different players though. I think we could do with both. Another quality DMF, and a consistent AMF. Cesc can sometimes be the latter, but can underperform aswell.

I get what you are saying, but I am sure he received some offers from Europe, but rejected them. I can't see anything swaying his mind to go to America par money.
I think them winning the CL days before has added more truth to the rumour. They have more money to play with now. Either way, I am sure they are after him.
