The rest of his quotes say he's basically looking to replace the players that have left, 3 midfielders went so 3 will come.

It's probably Luiz and Neymar.

I just hope we don't sell this kid. We all saw what happened when we put all our faith in Stoch.

I think the deal will be confirmed by the end of the week, if he passes his medical. Ancelotti probably doesn't want to give the game away yet

ACN is the only international competition that takes place during the season.

Gerrard and Torres will both stay at Liverpool regardless. I honestly think this thread is just getting a bit.. rinsed now. I don't think anyone of the 2 are leaving this summer, however if Liverpool don't win anything this season then one of them will most certainly leave next summer. A bit like Fabregas and Arsenal.

Congrats admins! This is a great forum for great Chelsea (& other) fans. I'm very glad I'm a member here!

I know what you mean, I am not a believer in God myself. However, if people have this belief and it makes them a better person should we really question this?

Yes. This is back when he was at the peak of his career, Deco at Barcelona and Porto was amazing. We simply bought him too late, in my opinion, when we bought him his performances could only get worse.

Do try and remember you're highlighting a very small few who take religion out of hand and out of context. Religion is open to interpretation, people therefore interpret it in different ways. Yes you do have such extremists who take their faith to a level which causes harm to others but the majority of religious people are nowhere near like that. Religion can be a way for people to find inner peace and meaning, some people need this in their lives to give them purpose. To say it has more negative effects in history than positive is very cruel. History highlights all the negative aspect of life anyway. We know religion can make people do bad things, from history, but we've also seen good aspect. Example, Gandhi said his inner peace came from religion. Martin Luther King also found his positive approach through religion.

Are you sure about that? I'm sure SkySports reported Hunt flew to the hospital where Cech was being treated to see how he was.

I think the delay is to do with the 40% ownership that guy has over him. Premier League rules don't allow players to be owned by a 3rd party any more after the whole Tevez/Mascherano debacle. They don't allow clubs to make direct payments to the 3rd Party either so it's up to Benfica to buy out the 40% and then sell Ramires. Until this happens the transfer won't happen.

Well would they publish that on the website regardless? I've never seen them publish a story saying "[player] wants to leave the club"

ASHLEY COLE has issued a come-and-get-me plea to Real Madrid by telling Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti he wants to quit the club. Cole had a 20-minute heart-to-heart with Ancelotti at Chelsea's training ground after reporting back last week. And the 29-year-old England full-back stressed he feels he needs to leave the club now and move abroad to link up with former boss Jose Mourinho in the wake of his marriage break-up with pop star wife Cheryl and lurid stories about his personal life. A source close to Chelsea told Sport of the World: "It was a very amicable meeting, but Ashley made it clear that because of his personal situation he feels it is in his best interests to leave the club. "He told Ancelotti that he will be very sad to leave and that it had been a privilege playing for the club during such a successful time in its history." Spanish giants Real have been monitoring Cole's situation closely and are now poised to launch a £25million bid. It is understood Real and former Chelsea boss Mourinho has been very supportive of Cole following Cheryl's divorce announcement, although there is no suggestion he has made any formal overtures to the player. Attention Ancelotti is believed to have been sympathetic to Cole's position, but does not want him to leave. Our source added: "Ashley was told that he would have to go and see the chairman, which he hasn't done yet and he has not handed in a formal transfer request. "He knows Ancelotti wants him to stay, but he feels that moving abroad is the only way he can escape the attention after what happened with Cheryl and the other stories about his private life." Cole has been criticised for not visiting Cheryl, who is currently recovering from malaria, and has reportedly been very solemn in training. Cole is due to play for Chelsea in tonight's friendly against Frankfurt in Germany. Cole's agent David Manasseh said: "I have no comment to make." The Cole situation could be a first test for Txiki Begiristain, the former Barcelona football director Chelsea hope to bring to Stamford Bridge this month. || News Of The World ||

http://www.atdhe.net very good website, check it when the game actually kicks off.

And look how he turned out, England's most over-rated

LOL I saw the one coming!

He's on loan with Crewe, so he probably hooked up with them for pre-season training. I'm quite concerned Bosingwa's not travelling, does that means he's not over his injury yet? Hopefully Kakuta will get game time once he arrives in Germany, will be a great game tomorrow!

Chelsea win Milk Cup Final.. Watch here (UK Only for the video.)

Benayoun?

It is unfortunate people still won't realise how good Mikel is despite this article.. Good find though.

Damn, I missed the whole game! Can someone upload highlights later? Thanks
