Oh poor lad. Was shocked when I heard about this, having to retire from football at such a young age. Good luck Sam.

I hope he plays better this season. I don't dislike him much to be honest, he's not our best forward but he's improving.

Brilliant play from the lads, great result

Everybody Hates Chris.

He is called Fat Ronaldo for some reason...

Come on Chelsea! Can't wait for the game

Last season's white kit was awesome, but this one looks nice too, I like it. Much better than the green one we had in the 07/08 season.

Good luck Riccy, a Chelsea legend and no doubt will be missed.

Happy birthday Salomon Kalouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Happy birthday!

Come on you blues, can't wait for this game

Oh dear Well, we must all get rid of using this picture lol. Anyway, welcome Yossi! I actually liked him a bit when he was still a Pool player. He's not bad on the wings, even though he's getting old.

I think we should get Schweinsteiger, Ozil and Aguero. We really need one new midfielder or two, and Aguero in the attack. Would like to see at least one of these happen this summer.

It's his 32nd birthday today. Happy Birthday legend!

You joker.

I'm sad to see them both go but tbh I think that it was time for them to leave the club, and as many of you already stated it means more space for the youth. They are both great players which we will never forget. I'm glad that Ballack won the league finally after 4 years, his mission with Chelsea was done. Joey - will never forget his two goals against Spurs in the 4-4 drama. Ballack - his two goals against Manure back in April of 2008. Maybe I was being too harsh in the "Would you boo Joe Cole" topic but I was very disappointed at the minute considering the fact that he will join Spurs/Arsenal/Man Utd. I don't think I would boo him, seriously, but still I'm very disappointed. I'll still like him as a player though. Ballack - where will he go?

Happy birthday Carlo!

If I had the chance to go to the Bridge, I would boo him, wouldn't think twice. if he's a Chelsea legend he shouldn't join our rivals.

Premierships: Lampard - 3 Gerrard - 0 Lamps is scoring more, he's winning more, and he is better than Gerrard individually, period.

To be honest I like Carlo much more - I think that he's better as a manager and I like his calm personality. I strongly believe that he can win us the Champions League next year. I trust in him.

Good news, I'm happy for him It'd be a big shame if he didn't play in the World Cup.

Very good news indeed, happy that he signed a new deal with the club. Great player, I hope that next season he will play a lot and be decisive for the season.

Indeed. How many times have him and Malouda played together though? Wonder how the game would go with them both on the left.

If Cole goes who would replace him at left back?

It looks much nicer now. I like it.
