This is how to have a shot at the Nou Camp Arsenal

We are fucked. This back four combination AGAIN. It just DOESNT WORK.

Bosingwa coming on, oh my god

Congrats on your title win, no on can deny you have been the best team this season by far.

Won 1-0 to secure 2nd place.

The problem is with Cole showing no sign's of serious decline and Ryan coming on leaps and bounds he is unlikely to be getting chances at left back, let alone be first choice in the near future.

http://videos.sapo.pt/YNNe6Y5irCzSIp6QV5m3 Watch this video in the Nou Camp in 2009 and Platini's reaction to Barca's chances. About the ref tommorow. http://www.fixedsoccermatches.com/boards.php?id=10 "Fenerbahe chairman Aziz Yldrm allegedly called the Turkish Football Federation, or TFF, before his teams derby match between Beikta and Fenerbahe and said "Appoint [referee] Cneyt akr to the derby match, send me Cneyt." The Feb. 20 derby, which was officiated by akr and ended in a 4-2 win for Fenerbahe, was seen as one of the more important milestones in the Yellow Canaries march to the eventual championship." We are fucked.

On the negative side however if Robbie and Zola both get sacked at the same time, they will send nearly every Chelsea fan over the edge.

That's not the case far from it, i have nothing but respect for the job he has done at Everton with limited resources, but Chelsea or even Everton with their version of Roman is a completely different ball game.

We have many players currently out on loan from the club right now, the big question is what do we do with all these players when they make their return to Cobham in the summer? Matej Delac He was one of the hottest goalkeeping prospect's when we signed him back in 2009, but 2 loan spells at Vittesse and Dynamo Ceske Budejovice has got him 1 appearance in both spells. Verdict: Try and find him an English club in League 1 or 2, with any luck he may end up having the impact Arsenal goalkeeper Szcezsny (however you spell him) had for Brentford in 2009/2010. Thibaut Courtois Producing sensational display's between the sticks for Athletico Madrid and has had some pretty decent exposure in the Europa League. He is looking like more of a bargain at £9m with every passing week. If we decided to cash in on this summer we would double our money at worst. Verdict: Let him stay at Athletico for next season especially if they get CL football as it will boost his development no end, after that we should look at option's at other Premier League clubs because if De Gea is anything to go by, he might take a while to adapt. Rhys Taylor Currently at Rotherham United after a loan spell with Crewe last season, he has done ok but there are far too many goalkeepers above him in the pecking order and at 22, if he was going to break through he would have done so by now. Verdict: Sell him at the end of the season. Sam Walker Enjoyed loan spells at Barnet in League 2 last season before making another loan move in the same Division to Northampton in July. Chelsea recalled him after Aidy Boothroyd signed a new number 1 goalie and since January has been on loan to Yeovil Town in league 1, making 18 appearances. He signed a new contract until 2014 recently however so he will be sticking around for the near future. Verdict: Try and get him a loan in a higher League 1 team or even better a Championship team, important he keeps progressing. Tomas Kalas The real success story of our loans, Vittesse had one of the worst defensive record's last season and Kalas's presence alone transformed them into one of the best in the Dutch League. They conceded 8 goals the 2 games prior to Kalas's arrival and conceded that many for the next 4 months. Verdict: See if a loan in a higher standard league is available (French or Portuguese maybe). Make no mistake this guy is a talent and if he doesn't make it, no one will. Ben Gordon Now at Kilmarnock for a second loan spell up there after a disastrous spell with Peterborough and has played 12 games for the Scottish Club. At this moment he doesn't look like he has a future t Chelsea, but the same was said about Ryan Bertrand at the same age, 2 years on he produced a MOTM display at The Emirates so we can never say never. Verdict: Another loan in the SPL or Championship is the best the young lad's likely to be offered, hopefully it can be a season loan where he is playing consistently as the loan to Reading was the making of Ryan. Milan Lalkovic A decent spell at Doncaster was followed by a disastrous spell at ADO Den Haag where the Dutch club terminated the loan after deeming him surplus to requirements after a mere 2 appearances. He is no doubt a very talented footballer but this recent loan will have set him back in confidence and development. Verdict: Paulo Di Canio expressed an interest in bringing him to Swindon last summer, in hindsight it is the best thing that could have happened to him, hopefully he will show an interest in the lad again this summer. Ulises Davilla There was quite a bit of hype for the lad when we signed him this summer only to loan him straight out to Vittesse. Unlike Kalas he has been struggling to get into the team and has been alternating between being an un used sub and playing for the reserves for most of the season. Verdict: He has been getting better in the reserves, keep him there if they will have him and hope he can break into their first team. Gael Kakuta Despite impressing on the rare chances he was given at Fulham and Bolton by Hughes and Coyle respectively he was never given a fair crack at the whip in either loan spell in England. Back in his home country playing for Dijon he has impressed when given regular playing time and showing the potential that every Blues fan know he has. Verdict: He's 21 this year, enough loan spells, time to bring him back into our squad this summer and make him back up/competition to Mata, it's sink and swim time for the lad now. Jeffrey Bruma After a poor spell with Leicester and a nervous start at Hamburg, he really came into his own mid season with a string off impressive performances. He has a 2 year loan at Hamburg so a return in the summer look's unlikely although we do have the option to end the loan this summer. A lot were sold to Hamburg from our youth academy however and the fact Bruma was only loaned show's that the club do have plans for him. Verdict: He is settled and playing well with Hamburg, no need to bring him back this summer. Kevin De Bruyne Signed in January after helping Genk win a historic title the previous season but got loaned back to the Belgium club almost immediately. A hot prospect that Chelsea have been after for some time. Verdict: Let him carry on at Genk for another season or another team in Europe. Patrick Van Aanholt After a disappointing spell at Leicester where Foxes fans were particularly critical of his defending, Roberto Martinez brought him on loan to Wigan and after playing him for a few games all off a sudden froze him out of the first team picture all together, meaning his season long loan was terminated in January. In January he joined Kalas and Davilla on loan at Vittesse and just like at Wigan, played at the start but lately has found himself out of matchday squad's. Verdict: Managers don't seem to be fond of the defensive side of the game, which is why i think it can't do any harm trying to turn him into a left winger considering his fantastic attacking abilities not to mention his goal threat. Bring him back in the summer and give him some game time in that position and see what happens, you never know he might just 'do a Bale'. Josh McEachran When he got loaned to Swansea i think every Chelsea fan was full of hope. Brendan Rogers his youth coach, Swansea's style of play, this would be the making of him. The complete opposite has happened however, he has only made 2 start's (1 in the premier league) and lately hasn't even found himself coming off the bench. Verdict: Can't risk a failed loan again, so unless some team come's along that can guarantee him regular playing time, keep him here and give him 10-15 appearances. Despite the Swansea nightmare, at 19, time is still on his side. Yossi Benayoun Ending with the only loan player that can't be deemed a 'youngster', the loan decision in the first place was baffling, he can offer creativity, something our side hardly have in abundance and Arsenal are not only competitive rival's with Chelsea but local aswell. Verdict: With a likely overhaul of past their peak first teamers coming this summer, we need to keep as many squad players as we can, and he is a very good one that could come in very handy.

True but he has never had to deal with huge expectation's and boardroom pressure to get instant results, that would quickly change with us or if Everton get took over Roman or Shieks style.

Agree with all of that apart from Essien, he has no mobility anymore and Barca would have a field day. Good to see you back btw, hope you stick around I'd prefer Drogba offside not given, dives penalty given, Drogba takes the penalty, Valdes saves to the post then it rolls over the line Pique gets back clear's it before it goes over but the ref gives a goal The ultimate revenge.

Id be curious to know what would happen if Everton got took over by a billionaire tommorow and told Moyes he had an unlimited amount of cash to spend. All off a sudden he is under serious pressure for the first time in his career, how will he cope?

The point is Inter were a treble winning side that won 5 league title's on the trot. Inter may have had problem's but to take them 7th straight away after a treble is unlucky? 2nd or 3rd maybe but 7th? despite the trouble's that team were still much better than that. Did i also forget to mention they limped out of their group humiliated by champions league new boys.

He took a treble winning Inter side who won 5 titles in a row to 7th.

2009 the PFA decide they have a touch of nostalgia and give the award to Ryan Giggs. 2010 Wayne Rooney get's the award over Drogba despite the fact Drogba outscored Rooney with 2 major obstacle's Rooney didn't face (wansn't first choice spot kick taker and was at ACON for a month). 2011 Bale gets the award, based on what? 2 good games in Europe. Now this year they top the lot by giving the young player award to a defender who can't defend, who's going to win it next year Glen Johnson? Only in this country.

You forgot to add all of United's 3 goals' when they ran riot at WHL. Not to mention the fact he makes Bosingwa look like Maicon.

I say it because was never really convinced with his defensive abilities and with Ryan coming on strong and Ash showing no signs of serious decline he won't be making left back position his own any time soon, 1 or even 2 failed loans could be deemed as fluke but 3? He does have outstanding attacking abilities however and if our coaches can 'do a Bale' with him it could potentially save us millions.

someone tell me because i am struggling to understand, what would Walker be without pace? Some of the PFA decision's are unbelievable.

What the fuck do we do with him? Looked out of his depth in the Championship and now is out of the matchday squad at Vittese, either we try and do a Bale with him or get what we can.

If were going to go for midtable miracle men then Curbishley > Moyes. Were not so Jose it is

Remember the debate whether or not he should have played against United? well i think he answered that question yesterday.

Torres starting this one will be like trying to attack a alligator with a hamster or a lion with a feather.

congrats to Super Villians, who are now champions. I need atleast a draw against X-Rated and UpTheChels not to win to secure 2nd, but if both results go against me, it's a final day battle for 2nd with my team going away to Super Villians. So in short ive got a huge task now to keep 2nd place.

A £50m forward should be able to adapt. Its pathetic that we he should need £100m worth of 'service'
