One player that came to my mind is Jose Fonte, solid CB, was great at Euro 2016, just a shame we couldn´t grab Renato Sanches before Bayern, but one midfielder we should definitely go after is Joao Mario.

I don´t read too much in to pre season, the main thing is to try tactics, and to get the players mentally and physically ready for the start of the season.

i think Bonucci would be a great signing, just what we need in defense, and Zouma will be like a new signing once he returns from injury, let´s hope.

It could work with Van Gaal, but i agree with you, those Belgium players need discipline, too much primmadonnas there and it's wrecking the team's progress. We'll see what happens. Cheers

Is it confirmed? Great signing if true, reminds me of a young Makelele, just what we need in midfield, a midfield trio of Kante - Matic - Fabregas looks great to me, depending on what system Conte employs. Hope the board gets the rest of the deals done fast, so the players can prepare properly for the new season, i think the future looks bright and i feel rather optimistic ahead of the new season, i have a great feeling it´s going to be an epic one, but i really hope we can start off on the right foot and kick on from there, it´s about time we challenge for the title again and put last season´s nightmare to bed. Cheers mates and here´s to a great season, can´t wait

I would like to see Del Bosque or even Conte coaching Belgium, i think they could do wonders there, just my opinion.

Believe me, he is the real deal. just like Renato Sanches, i watch the portuguese league a lot. Cheers

Great signing, one for the future, i rate him better than Lukaku, we´ll see how he develops. Welcome and good luck Batshuayi.

Many congrats to the youth team for winning back to back European Trophies, and also Viveash and the rest of the staff who work day in and day out with the lads. I'm really glad and proud of the boys, for the big character, passion, desire, work ethic and maturity they have and they are showing everyone at the club and around the world, specially the senior team at Chelsea how it's done. This group of young lads, no, let me rephrase that, group of men, deserve all the praise they get and may they achieve a lot more together and grow up to be great players even if it is at Chelsea or not. I prefer they make it to the senior team and show they deserve a chance, at least they will give their blood for the club, unlike some of the lot we have. Cheers On a side note, we can at least say we beat PSG this season and have a trophy to show for it, take that PSG!!!, don't mistake the youth team with the senior team. Cheers and KTBFFH

Congrats Everton, deserved winners.

PSG must wish they played Chelsea everytime in the Champions League right now, that's how low we've sunked, sadly :(. I expect PSG to be outplayed by a better team like Barcelona, Real Madrid or Bayern in the next round, or maybe they can go all the way, with all that money spent and quality players PSG have, who knows? but i couldn't care less. There were some positives, but also a lot of negatives, we missed Zouma and Terry's influence badly in a game of this calibre, but no point in crying over spoilt milk, this was bound to happen, minding this nightmarish season, and i much rather go out now, to avoid humilliation at the hands of Real Madrid, Barcelona, etc, later in the competition.The main focus now is seeing the season out and try to win as many games as possible to see where we finish in the table, squad rotation, give Traore, RLC and co more playing time, and try to go all the way in the FA Cup to see if we at least can salvage something from this season and fix the squad properly in the summer. Cheers and good luck for the rest of the season.

Narrow win or draw, depends on what Chelsea shows up.

Pato is too injury prone, not wise to go for him. Was a great player on his day but injuries took it´s toll on him. Cheers

Couldn't watch the game, was too busy today and was at my 2 year old cousin's birthday party at the time of the game. I just watched the full extended highlights and i'm clueless and baffled as to how in the hell did we not at least draw this match? or even win? so many chances wasted, just clueless in attack, i know we were losing 2-0 and had a mountain to climb, all credit to Leicester who were deserved winners and are sitting rightly at the top, but seriously? what the fark is wrong with this group of players? no passion, no character, no desire and no hunger whatsoever. We seem to have a some pussies and princesses playing for Chelsea, no balls or pride of any kind in this team, no respect for the club they represent, shame on them. Attack me all you want, but i don't mind getting rid of some of the players in the summer, because we need fighters and warriors on this club, no room for primadonnas and pussies, bunch of wankers. To think that once we had an identity at the club with players like: Lampard, Drogba, Makelele, Essien, Ballack, Terry, Carvalho, Ferreira, Ashley Cole, Joe Cole, Duff, Robben, Gallas, Cech, Cudicini, Gudjohnsen, Crespo, etc, players who gave absolutely everything for the club, no matter what, it's a disgrace what this current lot are doing to the club, they should be ashamed to be called Chelsea players and the old players who gave their blood for Chelsea during many years, pre Roman and Roman era , shit on this current lot all day long. Not all of this current players are shit, but most don't seem to give a fark for the club and cause, and are dragging the club down. Cheers

Many congrats Cech, legend, just a big shame he couldn´t achieve it with us, fark Arsenal.

Nice group for Portugal. clearly favorites, but the team must be 100% focused, no excuses and no slip ups. Group B should be no problem for England, Group C looks straight forward for Germany, France should have no problems in group A, Group D clearly the group of death, and Group E isn´t an easy one too, at all. Nice tournament in perspective, can´t wait

@Essien19, @stroey, we can all agree that they are both world class and it´s a joy and a previlege to watch them both play, Neuer for me is the number 1, even if his methods are sometimes crazy, he´s 29 years old, has won it all (except Euro), he is at his prime, complete GK imo and Courtois is only 23 years old mind you, he will only get better with age and he is a beast already and has been since he was at a younger age, just like Neuer, and we are so lucky to have Courtois at Chelsea, just like we were with Cech at his best. For me in this last 5 years, the 5 best GK: Neuer, Casillas, Courtois, Cech, Buffon, in no specific order and i´m only referring to the last 5 years, i had the previlege to watch many top goalkeepers play in the past ( Kahn, Schmeichel, Barthez, Toldo, Van Der Sar, Canizares, Baia, etc. ). Cheers

The 2012 win was a miracle, anyway we look at it, but all credit to us for fighting to the end and never giving up when all seemed lost and we made our own luck then and deserved to win it, we had everything going our way and add to that the big characters we had: (Lampard, Drogba, Terry and co. ) destiny? farking yes I would go trough all of that again if it meant we win it again, who knows? anything can happen in football, we have to believe it´s possible even if all seems dark. Let´s try it, we have nothing to lose. God bless football. Cheers

No matter who we get in the draw, we all know that once you reach this stage of the competition, there are no more easy games, all those teams are in the last 16 for a reason, so it depends on us to take no one for granted and do our job, even if the opponent looks weak on paper. Any team will be ready for the challenge when the time comes and so will we hopefully. Let´s make the most of this chance. Cheers

You can bet they will blow this out of proportion, and what i can interpret from this video is that Hazard is showing really poor attitude, lack of class and respect, the team comes first. It might even be nothing and people will read between the lines, but we´ll see what happens in the next few days. Cheers

Thanks mate , now that would be a real dream if we won it again wouldn´t it? Cheers

You can start dreaming now hehe

Many congrats to the team for qualifying for the last 16, everyone did their part today, big show of character and desire, great support from the crowd, many congrats to the fans in the stadium for creating a great atmosphere, in the end the team got the win they rightly deserved, great job. Onwards and upwards. Cheers and KTBFFH

Our possible opponents next round: Gent, Roma, Juventus, PSV, PSG, Benfica. Any toughts ? Cheers
