Haha, Harry's a funny guy.

Let down? Fuck that. He's let us down all along with this contract shit.

I wouldn't say that at all, I'm not excusing it, just tolerating it.

The start and end of Drogba is that he makes an excellent contribution for us, and whilst I am sick too of his diving, playacting and attitude, in the end if he scores all these goals you can't complain too much.

In the case of Frank I don't think it is so much money as it is ego.

Wonder if anyone can shed any light on it? Must be a clause special to his contract...

So? Why should that mean he gets extra payment from us, its not like we're releasing him on a free? You got a source for that information by the way?

Thanks, although it would appear that site isn't working right now. But I'll bookmark it.

Well we have, but why is that? We're not forcing him to leave, we're selling him to another club where he will likely receive a signing on fee anyway.

Well that's shit. Oh well, sure they'll show snippets on Sky Sports News.

I can believe that to be honest. Abramovich says, hey Felipe, you can spend whatever you like to get the team you want. Doesn't mean he said Scolari can spend £250m on one player!

Will this only be on Chelsea TV?

Excellent news, although he may change his tune in 5 years time, but that hardly matters now.

I don't believe a player would be stupid enough to come out and say publicly that he is better than a team mate. It's just not the kind of thing you say unless you want to be made an outcast.

Jon: 1. Disagree that Lampard only has one good year in him left. He has such good stamina, I'd say three minimum 2. Lampard is on par with those players and yet different in so many useful ways. And having all four is better than having only three. One on the bench each match isn't too much of a problem for Scolari. 3. We don't need the money, if the club do feel they can get Lampard to sign, then £8 million just ain't enough.

Welcome to TC

He must be good if a team is willing to pay £12 million for him...

Yep, you're right. I'm a big fan of Mikel too, he looks the part already but at the moment those players I mentioned are better so it will be difficult for him. He's indicated his willingness to stay though, which is good. I hope he doesn't become another Diarra.

He's not as good as Ballack, Lampard or Essien.

Good to see Robbie back involved in football, best of luck to him!

Well if he will still express himself more with more freedom, then his creativity hasn't been damaged has it?

What a terrific improvement!

Great player, shame he couldn't settle here.
