Hazard looks like he will be world class very very soon! and then the prospect of Hazard playing with Mata and Oscar as well is mouth watering! plus with Marin in there as well! Torres will be loving it! I cant wait till the season starts!!!

just because he is 20 years old doesn't mean he isn't good enough to get into the 1st team! before his injury Jack Wilshere was playing first team football for both Arsenal and England! if your good enough you will play the same applies for Oscar and De Bruyne! imo Oscar has the ability to break into the first team.

Kezman is not and has never been a Great Striker! The likes of Drogba, Henry, Shearer, Ronaldo (Brazilian) Raul, Shevchenko (at Milan) Ibrahimovic ect were/are all Great Strikers, Kezman could never be in the same category as them.

I can see why Torres is on the list as its done by UEFA. Torres was fantastic for us in the Group stages and then the goal that would be in all of the heads of all the Uefalona people is Torres's goal that confirmed Barcelona's exit for the CL. and then of course going on to win the Golden Boot at Euro 2012, I can fully understand Nando's inclusion.

For me i would have Falcao or Higiuan over Cavani. I would also have Torres over Cavani as well! I like Cavani he is a quality striker but i would rather us go for Falcao first!

First of all Sturridge wasn't one of our best players last season, he was only good for the 1st half of the season! And no one has forgot about him! The reason why no one is mentioning him is because he won't be taking part in pre-season as he is going to the Olympics!

Yes that's true, and I also think KDB will end up as a top top CM but for now whenever Hazard is on the pitch as long as Mata isn't playing as well then I feel Hazard should always be in the number 10 position.

you dont need blistering pace to be a good winger! Malouda proved that a few seasons ago.

I'm bored so thought i would make a more detailed version of what i would do. 1st Half ...........................................Hilario...................................... .........Ivanovic......Cahill..................Chalobah..........Ferreira.... ............................Lampard..............Mceachran............... ........Benayoun..................Hazard...................Marin....... ............................................Lukaku................................... 2nd Half .......................................................Turnbull...................................................... .....Ivanovic/Kane*......Cahill/Hutchinson*...........Chalobah/Luiz*........Hutchinson/Saville**.. ...................................Mikel...........................Essien.............................................. ........Ramires/Kakuta***.....................Piazon........................De Bruyne.................. ....................................................Lukaku/Bamford*................................................. * - To come on for the last 30+ minutes. ** - Hutchinson to come on at around the 60th minute for Ferreira at LB, then Cahill for Saville at around the 75th minute so Hutchinson would move to CB and Saville to LB. *** - Ramires to come on for Benayon at half time, then Ramires to come off for Kakuta at around the 75th minute.

why would you put Hazard on the left and De bruyne as number 10?

Players i really dont want us to sign would be - Fellaini, Hulk, Walcott and Moses

So we got no A.Cole, Bertrand or Van Aanholt for this game so who's going to play LB? I doubt anyone will play the full 90 minutes so i wonder which players will be asked to put in a shift there. Possibly Ferreira but who else, Luiz? or maybe Hutchinson, Chalobah, Saville or Kane may be asked to play there. Not that its vitally important but just thought i'd throw that out there.

Torres wont play in this one he hasn't joint up with the squad yet and Sturridge and Mata are going to the Olympics so wont be going to America, Lukaku will start this game with possibly a cameo from Bamford

never get tired of watching that goal!

Seriously I don't actually care what happens with Kakuta! So I don't know why your going on some rant and getting all emotional to me! If he really impresses in pre-season and is happy to be used sparingly like in the carling cup then keep him for now if not then sell him! Simple! End of!

ok i never said Kakuta would be good enough to play for Chelsea! if he does really really well in pre-season like being better than the likes of Marin in pre-season then he deserves his chance to prove himself, if not then sell him. Im not saying he will do well enough to be kept for next season, personally i think he will do ok in pre-season but not enough to convince RDM to keep him around, so he will most likely get sold.

the obvious answer is see him in pre-season if he really really impresses then keep him and give him a chance next season, if not then sell him. I dont think he wants to be loaned out he either wants to stay or be sold.

yes i agree! i think Lukaku will go out on loan, so Schurrle will come in as a striker and fight for a place in the team with Torres and Sturridge (if he isn't sold) and then also get games out wide as well. Buying Schurrle certainly doesn't mean we will not sign Hulk.

Are people seriously judging Schurrle from what they saw at the Euro's??? if thats the case then Benzema and RVP look like very average strikers to me! and the likes of Negredo and Kerzhakov look like League 2 standard strikers. Schurrle would be an unbelievbale signing and im so glad the club can see that! he is very good out wide and also very good as a striker! for his age he is one of the best young forwards in Europe, He has potential to be world class and i can see him being easily better than the likes of Sturridge in a few years time. I really hope we can sign this kid as it would be a truly quality addition to our squad.

Finally! it was so obvious from the start! i hope Capello sues the F.A now.

you dont say.

Does 'PAC' stand for pace? if so how slow must Henry be now that even Donovan is rated as being faster than him! but at least Henry has more to his game unlike someone like Walcott who when he loses his pace he would be a League 2 standard player at best! lol

Beckham and Zusi wont get near Hazard! Marin will destroy Beitashour, Ramires will run pearce ragged! and Torres will give DeMerit and Collin a lesson in football!

I seriously cant stand him!
