Well...I'd take Ross Barkley over Cesc and Oscar any time!

Good. Courtois out, and a new young GK like Jack Butland (who's also English) in.

With Cahill and Luiz starting, nothing is certain. If José parks the bus we need Michy. Diego can't dribble and isn't as ballholding as Michy is. Buzzinggg....

I always sign Lampard, Drogba, Cech as CFC youth trainers in Football Manager when I'm a few years forward in the game. JT always becomes my assistant as he goes into managing in FM16. Hope it happens in real life one day...would be epic. Oh, and Cole was my director of football. Did a much better job than Emenalo lol.

Maybe if Conte moves to a 2 up front formation.

I can't see us win this one easily. José knows our squad trough and trough and I even think that some of them are scared to play against him. Myself is pretty scared about that shit-Andy-Carroll Zlatan. Dat grandpa baller can still do something out of nothing and he, as he is BFF with José, will give 200% for him. Then you still have Mata (if he's fit), Rashford who's class and in defence Eric Baily and of course David De Gea who's absolute class compared to T-Bo.... But I think that whole United squad will give 200% because of Mourinho. José will probably tell them to give something extra for him as he was (unrightfully) sacked at Chelsea. Can't say I'm surprised to the fact that he holds a deep grudge against some of our players and, like we do, the board. Simple said the club. I won't boo the man and the Chelsea fans who do are out of their mind. We all loved José when he was a Blue. He brought us head-to-head with the big boys. I also won't cheer for him either. I cheer for Conte. As José said when Lamps went to Citeh: the love story is over. We are now rivals. COME ON YOU BLUES!

Those inbred Mancs were happy with the 0-0 draw against Liverpool. Mourinho...managing a United team worth what? 500 million? And still he parks the bus. Now that he's gone here I finally see him for the managing coward he truly is. This game has me more than the Arsenal game, as I really really REALLY want to beat those muppets. José will give his players all for them to beat us as his little revenge against us, hope our players do the same.

Sabatini to Chelsea is not happening. Reading many reports that Buckenalo is still save...

Oooh I really want to win this one, because I freakin' hate ManUre and their glory hunting fans (not saying we don't have any, but the MUFC fans are ridiculous at time). Also, I want to beat Mourinho. Love the guy for what he did for us but he is NO LONGER one of us, so people at the Bridge, ignore him and sing for your new manager, Conte.

He's a goner Milan fans Twitter saying: " Fabregas has decided to join Milan in January and is searching for a villa in Como according to " with a link to the full article. He can't defend on the midfield. He is a liability next to Kanté as is Oscar. He and Oscar need to be axed if Conte wants his perfect midfield. That's why it really sucks that Nainggolan hasn't joined us he would be the perfect partner for N'Golo.

Hahahaha, the media is getting pathetic. There is literally NO ONE else available who might do a better job with players like Ivanovic, Oscar and Cahill. And Guus Hiddink will only draw every game.

I actually really liked the 15/16 kits even though they're cursed. Liked the accents, and when I see some pics of the players with those kits I really like the blue color with those slim stripes on it. Hope Nike will do a great job.

Chelsea DOES need 10 new players. No creativity in our attack appart from Hazard who, let's be honest, doesn't want to be here anymore. Deadwood midfield. Cesc is a liabilty, Oscar is shit and so is Matic. Kante is a machine but doesn't have the proper midfield partner like he had at LCFC. I'm not starting about our defense only that I do not rate Alonso and Bonucci would be stupid to buy because of his age. Wake the F up, Conte and Roman.

Would love him here. Kid's got good quality. Was good when he came on against Madrid in last seasons UCL final.

Corriere Dello Sport reporting that AS Roma is ready to sell Rüdiger to Chelsea in the winter transfer window.

I wanted to come back at this: Gary Neville on Eden Hazard Pretty certain somebody already posted this, but Neville's just hits the nail on the head. This is why Eden is not world class. Because he isn't that deadly as we always think he is. His arrogantic walking and those weak passes. Nahhhh. He fooking disappeared last year, but still expects to get chosen for the FIFA 17 cover. What a laugh. Eden is a great player, glad to still have him, but he's not world-class, he is on the same level as for example Alexis Sanchez (who has a better work rate IMHO), and to me, he's still here with high hopes to beat Pogba to most expensive player with a transfer to Real Madrid. Well, too bad Eden that Madrid got a transfer embargo (good riddance by the way). He has to be much more important. He should've fired up that HULL defense! He really needs to get his game up if you ask me.

Just give us a complete new squad, combined with our own HG players and good bought players and let Conte do his 3-5-2. Also, that means 2 wingbacks. No Willian and Hazard. As for both of them, they can both f*ck of to Real Madrid and the other one back to Ukraine (or China for that matter)

Zouma won't play for a few weeks I reckon. Also, I sincerely hope he's still the same defender he was before his injury.

Hmmm...I don't know if we ever see him in a Blue CFC shirt ever. Not too sure about Andreas Christensen. He came out saying he likes the BayernLiga more than the Premier League, so I can see him pleading Chelsea to permanently sell him to Borussia Mönchengladbach. Very strange for De Laurentiis to say: "we can talk about it next year".

If Hazard strolls around the pitch, Iva plays, Cahill makes this dumbfuck mistakes again, Willian's meaningless crosses and everything else happens again it's going to be a very though game. We need to win this one, as I don't see us beat ManUtd on the 23th.

3 midfielders....and the last one (Cesc) isn't even that bad imo. But it stuns me that the club realises this new squad overhaul when we, the fans and the critics, knew this when our last 2015/2016 campaign ended. God I would love it to have a midfielder like Koke in our team...and those are the names we should target next time.

Kanté gets a lot of hate on social media and the media itself saying he's shit and nowhere near his Leicester form. I say: bullshit. He's doing just fine. It's just that our other midfielders and defenders are shit so he has to cover way too much ground.

Wel...you have some good concept Nike CFC kits on Google but the Nike kits will never be like those. Hopefully the start of a whole new era for our club that starts with the new Nike kits...and ends with the new Bridge stadium. Wasn't our kit deal with Nike the biggest in the world after Barcelona's? Nike is starting to lose ground as ManUtd and Juve no longer have them as kit supplier. Only big teams like City, PSG...uhm Inter (if they are still even considered) a big team and ofcourse Barca.

Haha we all knew our squad was full of shit even before the start of the season and now Roman finally starts to see he needs to put some pounds on the table.

Oh god please let this be true....
