(this club has the highest by the way) Man City currently have the largest wage bill....the published results go back 18 months. Since then they have added alot of players and we got rid of Deco, Belletti, Cavalho, Cole and Ballack....

So had we bought Modric then everyone would have been aware that we would have had to get rid of a player to accomodate him.?? Nice one Mr Gourley, if we buy any players that are not homegrown or over 21 before we get rid of any, we will not recieve market value for the ones we sell. Good business plan.....

Your right, it was a stupid decision as he is useless and a u21 keeper would have been better for 3rd choice keeper. At present am i right in thinking we can't sign anyone over the age of 21 who is not homegrown as we have already filled the quota (17 players)??....

Can you give us a recap of what important things were said???

Thats a point. What backroom staff is he gonna bring with him or will he have to work with what we already have??

Thats amazing, where did you get that from??.....you'll be on Roman's yacht next....

And prior to Vialli Ruud Gullitt and prior to Ruud Gullitt Glenn Hoddle.....those are the guys that got the party started...

Bet we will get QPR within the first 3 games...

Never Ever believe the Daily Mirror. About 10% of what they print is truth....

Very poor wording by however runs the website. Surely "season tickets are now on general sale" would be more attractive......

Have u been offered a discount if you renew your ticket for next season?

Does anyone know what percentage of the ground are season ticket holders??. i.e. how many tickets go on sale for non season ticket holders per game??

I don't know why we don't give the job to Zola, no compensation required and we may get Steve Clarke back. Remember when Bates gave the job to Gullit and Vialli, it took us up a level. Plus last season proved that he done a good job at West Ham....

Before we start raving about Liverpool and how "English" they are and are trying to be, lets remember that they only buy players that fit a certain criteria(this was said by the new owner Henry, they have to be the right age and have a large future sell on value). This is a template used by US sports teams (do any of the yanks on here know the name of it?).The cynic in me thinks that they can see how much established PL English players are worth in thier prime and they are looking to sell these players on when they reach that stage for a profit. I dont think they give a toss about the players... Does anyone else think this??

Without going over the same old arguments, I would go for Hiddink over Ancellotti for tactical superiority in big games(I base this on the evidence at thier time at Chelsea).

They are both good coaches. Hiddink is a better fit for Chelsea though...

The average person in Britain is stupid. That's why the Sun is the biggest selling newspaper and is written for the reading ability of a 10 yr old...

Nice Pic.......

I hear your earmarked for a place in thier due to your age, is this correct......

Look at his last reign at PSV in 2002 -2006 - 3 leagues in 3 years and semi finals of the CL with no at the time big name players....he also discovered players aswell. I think his Holland style of play and team were pretty good to.

You cant compare him to Scolari. Hiddink has won the European Cup and managed clubs sides in Europe for a total of 14 yrs......Plus he knew when to shave his tache off!!!!!

In Hiddinks second spell at PSV he bought Park Ji Sung, Lee (Tottenham left back), Alex, Gomes, Farfan and Beasley. Interestingly, all were bought outside of Europe having never played here and all were sold to established European clubs at a profit....I think this bloke could really take our club forward....

Does anyone know what Hiddink's player buying record is like???. I know he club managed along time ago but what is his eye like for a player??

He is the only manager we have had under Roman, who he actually seems to really trust and listen to. Hiddink could really build a legacy at Chelsea if he can get the job....
