I am still convinced there is a future for him and Torres at Chelsea with wide players and a creative midfielder. For me Anelka should be the one to go.....

I think Drogba will do the business big time 2morrow......can see him bullying the hell out of Smalling.....

Fact is that geezer has knobed 50 yr old granny's and played at the last world cup with no heart or desire.....Now he does that when footballers are meant to be roll models for kids, says it all.....

I pray there is no truth in us being interested in him....he is the star at QPHaaaaaa because they are crap....I'm from Greenford West London originally, so I know loads of thier fans. You should hear the things they say about us and if you have ever been to Loftus road the songs they sing about us. Fact is I see them no bigger than Brentford.....

That guy turned defending into an art form.....

Don't think fun is the word I would use when he concedes his usual 3 goals a game.......

No way - he'll want huge wages and as he gets older will be even more injury prone. If we could loan him for a season would be a good bet....

Turnbull??

Plus he is the ONLY player we have who is on Torres wavelength.....

I have never said this about a Chelsea player before but I would be happy to see him get injured to be out of the team long term. His attitude since we signed Torres has been disgusting....

Why can't Alex play also??? - why is Carlo so ultra cautious when it comes to players fitness?? - He and Yossi have been fit for like 3 weeks and neither can even make it onto the bench. This is the biggest game of our season we need Alex at centre half and Ivanovic right back... Re: Bosingwa I would rather Paulo for this tie as he can defend.....

The main problem with Bosingwa is he is so weak....

THANK GOD someone has put this up as a thread - I have been tearing my hair out about Malouda for ages.....Fernando Torres will not score a goal while that guy is in the team......Zhikov is putting in effort and deserves the left hand spot. What annoys me most about Malouda is that we can't play 4-4-2 with him in the team...... PLEASE CHELS GET RID OF HIM IN THE SUMMER - yes he has ability but he is one of the worst team players I have seen.......

:goodpost: 100% agree.........also Torres will never score with Malouda in the team, I cant stand him.....

The Torres problem can be resolved easily for me and I hope the club do this at the end of the season....play him up front with Drogba, 2 years ago they were the best 2 strikers in the premier league....any club in the country would have wanted them as thier strike pair.....All we have to do is go 4-4-2 with Torres and Drogba up front with either Zhikov or Yossi on the left, it is simple. We paid £50 million for Torres and are not using him correctly. Malouda has to go in the summer.....

We were never gonna win the league so i was not surprised with the result. We still have the 5 point buffer over spurs so if we draw our remaining away games and win our home I will be happy. Top 4 is the priority this year now and champs league is a bonus...

I've been saying that for ages. Unless we change the way we play he will not score goals. He will not score with Malouda on the pitch and I don't think he will score this season....

Yuri for both games and Yossi introduced on the left at half time/60 mins vs Manure...Malouda just messes the balance of the team up so much.....Yuri can play left in a 4-4-2 or 4-3-3. Malouda can't play left in a 4-4-2 as he is a liability - I seriously hope we sell him in the summer, the Torres situation is worsened x 10 with him around and with Yossi now nearly fit he and Zhikov can compete on the left till the summer - I would not start Malouda again this season but obviously that will not happen..

Interesting point and makes sense but thier would be uproar from other clubs and how much would English Rugby want for the hire of the ground??

We should play Luiz at left back for this game and rest Cole for next week. Also bring Mikel in to cover the centre halves at the expense of Essien.... go 4-4-2 with Zikhov being busy on the left and Ramires right....Torres and Drogba up front.....PLEASE NO MALOUDA......

He was one of the first buys that started our crawl to becoming a top club along with Paul Furlong and Gavin Peacock....

I would say he was average when he came to us at best, but obviously what happened to him was horrific........

How on earth could these two men with taches like that end up managing our club....

And remember if Carlo stays in charge long term they may get a game before they draw thier pension......

I've said this a few times, always looks very sad......I would like to see him Man up a bit and have a word with Malouda when he constantly ignores him...he may do this in the dressing room but I doubt it, he looks like a little boy lost at the moment...
