This summer is surely right time to get rid of all the oldies and start a new era with a new manager. Last chance to get some decent money for some of oldies lol.
I want those players to leave: Hilario, Paulo Ferreira, Juliano Belletti, Mineiro, Michael Ballack, Deco, Claudio Pizarro, Andriy Shevchenko.
Also I wouldn't mind seeing those players leave: Ricardo Carvalho, Florent Malouda, Didier Drogba, Nicolas Anelka.
It's a lot of players and I doubt we would get enough money for all those players to replace them with great youngsters. Really got to hope that Abramovich gives some extra funds to build up a great team for future.
But if we really would do such a big change in our squad, we surely must get a new manager for longer than 1 season in order to get some positive results.
Anyways if we would sell all the players mentioned before, our team would be:
P.Cech
J.Bosingwa, B.Ivanovic, Alex, J.Terry, M.Mancienne, A.Cole
M.Essien, J.O.Mikel, F.Lampard
J.Cole, S.Kalou, M.Stoch
F.D.Santo
That's a hell of a small squad. We'd need:
a backup GK, a backup LB, a first team/backup CB, 2-3 backup CMs, a first team winger, a backup winger, a first team striker, 2 first team strikers.
That's hell of a lot players. So I actually believe we will keep either Carvalho, Deco or Ballack, Malouda and either Drogba or Anelka.
Anyway we need a massive clearout to be successful in future..
