After all these years Hilario has been at the club and given his stellar performances against some top teams such as barca, united, Liverpool, you still doubt his quality?

Goetze > Modric/Nasri/Moutinho Hazard>Mata/De bruyne

Welcome to Chelsea Romelu I bet Arsene wenger is quivering with fear right now. as if Drogba wasn't difficult enough to deal with

I will be surprised if AVB starts Romeu even against westbrom. He doesn't strike me as a risk taker ala Ferguson and Van Gaal.. . for now anyway

Exactly people just overreact for the sake of it. He was magnificent against Man utd, Liverpool and even barca for us in the past and coupled with his impressive pre-season form, what more does Hilario have to do to gain people's respect and confidence?

No panic guys. Hilario is more than capable of filling in for Cech

Classic

Abramovich got exceedingly sick of kalouda

Mourinho has single handedly ruined the el-classico reputation. Before he came to la liga, el classico's were relatively more entertaining and free of anti-sportsmanship. He's drilled his "us against them" mentality into his players even the gentle Ozil has been negatively influenced and turned to a beast. bring back the classy el-classico

Or it's a fake account

He's versatile as well. Can double up as an AMF and winger

Fair enough. let's wait if AVB can stamp his authority on the team and bench under performing stars

couple of games? Lampard has been shit since he returned from injury last season FFS. Bottomline is AVB has so far failed to keep to his words as Lampard should never have started the stoke game judging by his performance in pre-season. it's a shame player power and hierarchy still exists within the club and as a friend of mine would say, "same shit, different season/manager"

Wouldn't that make AVB an hypocrite. after all the talk about basing his team selection on form and merit? What type of message would he be sending out to the rest of the team. . . . .a leader that cannot keep to his words.

Fixed

You are certainly not the only one. One thing is for sure, Kevin can do no worse than kalouda if he's used straight away

Damn. This is the result of frustration caused by kalouda and our lack of marque signings in the transfer window. I understand where you are coming from

lol .Any manager that places kalou above sturridge in the pecking order deserves a sack. . .just for that outrageous judgment alone

That's hardly indicative of a player's quality or superiority Welkbeck is above Sturridge in the NT, Robinho above Hulk, Higuain above Aguero until recently and of course the crown jewel of them all Heskey above Darren bent and defoe in the NT (until recently)

His main weakness that I have observed is the "make lemonade from lemon" attitude. plus he also should be more ruthless. a lil ruthlessness every now and then goes a long way ala ferguson and mourinho

Why do you have to let everyone know my secret magical powers. be discrete about it, will you

That's very harsh don't you think? I wouldn't take everything he says at face value. besides he's already hinted at buying more players before the transfer window closes. so let's hope he recognizes the clear deficiency in the team and acts quickly.

AVB thinks Kalou, Malouda and Anelka are good enough to make us competitive this season. He publicly made that assertion. expect to see kalouda in action more often this season while Kevin is sent out on loan

We need to watch Terry and Ashley Cole very closely from now on

AVB sign her up to the first team
