  3. Manchester City agree deal with Chelsea to sign Wayne Bridge for £12 million By Sportsmail Reporter Last updated at 8:24 PM on 01st January 2009 Comments (0) Add to My Stories Manchester City have agreed a deal to sign unsettled defender Wayne Bridge from Chelsea for £12 million. The full-back has ended five and a half largely frustrating years at Stamford Bridge for the England full-back. Bridge will be at City on Friday to discuss personal terms. Wayne Bridge is on his way to Manchester City Bridge was initially a Chelsea regular after signing for the Londoners in the summer of 2003, but injuries and the arrival of other top stars, particularly Ashley Cole. His international career has also stalled, with his last appearance in a European Championship qualifier against Estonia in June 2007. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/...d.html?ITO=1490

  9. Steve Clarke, Chelsea's assistant first-team coach, has become so disillusioned with life at Stamford Bridge that he wants to pursue his own managerial career at the end of the season, The Times has learnt. Chelsea's managerial team could be in for quite a shake-up because the rumblings of discontent felt towards Avram , the first-team coach, are such that several other long-serving members of the coaching staff will also consider their positions if remains in charge next season. Clarke was given a huge pay rise to £900,000 a year to convince him to stay after the departure of José Mourinho in September last year forced the Scot to consider his future, but the improved contract has not eradicated all his concerns. It is understood that he is ready to end his association with Chelsea, which stretches back 21 years, by allowing his name to be circulated among Coca-Cola Championship clubs at the end of the season. Such is Clarke's desire for a fresh start that he is willing to accept a substantial pay cut to secure a manager's job elsewhere. Clarke's renewed case of itchy feet will represent a considerable blow to Chelsea because he is well respected by all the senior players and is the only member of the management team to be genuinely popular with the fans. The former Scotland defender joined Chelsea from St Mirren in 1987 and went on to make 421 appearances, the fifth highest total in the club's history, later acting as a scout and youth-team coach before he was appointed assistant manager by Mourinho. Related Links Although Clarke has no personal problem with , the appointment of Henk ten Cate as joint assistant first-team coach alongside Clarke has not helped the situation and he has yet to develop a close working relationship with the Dutchman. Clarke will remain loyal to until the end of the season, despite misgivings over some of the Israeli's methods, which are shared by others at the club. There is a widespread belief that training sessions are too often conducted on the hoof, whereas in the past they were planned several weeks in advance, while others have criticised 's team meetings for lacking detail, in contrast to the meticulous preparation of Mourinho. has also had to put up with his authority being publicly questioned by senior players, with Michael Ballack and Frank Lampard indulging in mild shows of dissent after being substituted in the matches against Middlesbrough and Fenerbahçe in the past week, but he was in a defiant mood yesterday before Chelsea's Barclays Premier League match away to Manchester City today. has begun preparing for next season, although his plans are likely to be radically altered if Chelsea are knocked out of the Champions League next week by Fenerbahçe, who lead their quarter- final 2-1 after the first leg in Istanbul on Wednesday. "What assurance can the club give me?" said. "A contract for ten years? I need to do my job. On the football front I can tell you what I'll do at Chelsea next week, next season and in two years' time. Maybe even more. I have my ideas and my plans, but in my private life I don't know what will happen tomorrow. We're planning for next season already. There is a vision for the club and it's very clear. We want to get better over many years." did concede that his team are more vulnerable than Mourinho's Chelsea, although he was adamant that he would not abandon his attacking principles, despite the defeat in Istanbul. "Maybe we're more vulnerable, yes," said. "I've not done the statistics about how many leads were lost last season, but when you go to a different way sometimes you pay for this. But I prefer what happened on Wednesday. It was not the time to close the game as we were dominating, so I will not close the game to win 1-0. We looked like scoring a second goal so it was not the time to close down the game. Most of the times we did that this year we won the games."
  10. Fri, 28th Mar 2008 Chelsea Football Club is extremely disappointed with the announcement today regarding the Everton fixture. We believe the decision to hold the match on Thursday April 17 undermines the sporting integrity of the competition by giving our rivals for the Premier League title an unnecessary competitive advantage at a critical time of the season, with more recovery time from their previous match and preparation time for their next fixture when we have to play two games during the same period. Secondly there has been no consideration given to our fans who will be presented with serious travel, work and other issues. And lastly, the decision sets a dangerous precedent in changing match days still further when fixture congestion does not exist and when a sensible solution regarding other television matches that weekend was suggested. Football has benefited greatly from the backing of television and Chelsea as much as anyone else. However this decision is one step too far and we reserve all rights on our position.

  14. Chelsea face battle to keep Lampard as £5m summer exit clause tempts Barcelona Frank Lampard will return for Chelsea this afternoon in their vital Premier League showdown against dippers with his long-term future at Stamford Bridge in fresh doubt. Leading European clubs are considering exploiting a new FIFA ruling which means the England midfielder can quit Chelsea for just £5 million this summer. And Lampard would be willing to invoke it if his employers do not come up with Chelsea at the moment. Lampard has been given a huge boost by the recent ruling from the Court of Arbitration for Sport, which stipulated that players need to pay only the remainder of their contract if they wish to join another club. It means that Lampard can control his exit from Chelsea this summer even if the club do wish to sell him. Barcelona, the club Lampard would most like to join on account of his wife Elen coming from the city, are expected to renew their interest in the England midfielder this summer on the basis of the new ruling. They have previously ruled out making a move for him on the basis that the asking price of £20m was too expensive but would happily pay the reduced fee. Current coach Frank Rijkaard is expected to leave the club in the summer and there is a concerted campaign by some of the board at the club to bring in former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho, whose first move would be to sign Lampard. Lampard has already turned down a contract offer from Chelsea and has just one year left on his deal at the end of the season. Kutner has previously insisted that Lampard would like to stay at Chelsea but clearly it will be dependent on the contract on offer. Now, as long as he serves notice by May 26, Lampard can leave the club by paying up the value of the year remaining on his contract. Lampard's best chance of a move to Barcelona would clearly be if Mourinho was appointed. His agent Jorge Mendes spent two days at the club this month, fuelling speculation that a deal would announced shortly. However, given the animosity displayed by Mourinho towards the Catalan club during the infamous Champions League ties with Chelsea in 2006, when Mourinho accused Rijkaard of colluding with referee Anders Frisk, there is still significant opposition to his appointment. Most notably influential former Barca player and manager Johan Cruyff is said to be vehemently against the idea employing the Portuguese.
