when does europa league start?

Woudn't mind him for the right price as he would help us ensure top 4 at least this season. But come january there are other wingers I prefer us to pursue appose to krasic. For instance Marko Marin who is german of serbian decent if im not mistaken, brilliant player 22 years old(small though) best position is lw, so we could move mata to right or centrally. Basicaly we can kill two birds with one stone. Krasic = solve rw problems for now and a bit longer. While marin would help us right now and be immense for the future as well.

attacking football with rameries mikel and lampard as your mids, makes me question his awareness. If he came out with the right tactics or impact subs that have worked more than twice this season I would see his glimpses of potential, but im not impressed. And if you cite his record at porto I will laugh, Porto is an amazingly run club from top to bottom, the way its set up I could win a double there . I will give him the benefit of doubt for now and still back him(I AM NOT YET CALLING FOR HIS SACKING THATS JUST DUMB), but im curious how chelsea will look when he gets the players he wants. First thing he can do to really impress me is show some balls and put some of the older players who are being played cause of reputation on the bench.

Obviously no one is a fan of avb's work this season, but sacking him is just unrealistic at this time, and judgment on him should be after at least 1 season and a bit. The thing that worries me is how will we be able to sign a top talent like cavani as someone mentioned earlier in this thread when were playing in Europa league? I have come to terms with not making cl this season, but Christ we are so desperate for signings in certain positions it will be hard to attract quality. Avb and gourlay have considerable work ahead of them this summer, we will have to look at new targets that are willing to join a team not in cl. Possibly targets like de bryne and someone like gaston rameriez wouldnt mind a season w/o cl maybe. I just hope we don't suffer for lack of organization in the summer.

I think if we swtich to 4-2-3-1 , di maria or lucas moura would be more natural in the rm position.

Hazard in, gotze in, champions league in. Simple formula. Would love mceachren and mata spotting hazard with great service, he would open up so much space for torres.

Neymar or Pato without question Hamsik or Hernanes without question Gotze or Moutinho I want him more than anyone at chelsea Pastore or Modric dont rate pastore highly Hulk or Di Maria Flip a coin on this one to close to call Higuain or Benzema Not a benzema fan, would take jovetic over any of these two in a heartbeat

Would rather fork 45 mil for hazard, imagine an open game like the one today(against arsenal 5-3 loss) with eden hazard. Would be a game where he easily picks up 2 goals and more.

if we dont get top 4(i dont think we will), no new stadium, mata will leave within 2 years and its rip chelsea as a top club. THere iis just so many problems with the team. The fact rameries, a guy with no skill or techinal ability what so ever is our best midfielder is where the problem starts. we have 1 worldclass player right now, and thats mata. Everyone else is over it, or as ppl on this forum are describing as above average but not worldclass. We need so many new players, and if we were to rebuild now, at least 4 years till we would be titles contenders. Dislike this all you like you know inside of all of you this is the absolute truth. What can you do? Idk slag those cunts on cpo that voted no... but pretty much not much else. Its rip chelsea for a while my friends, it was a fun 2003-2010. It was fun years filled with trophies and sorrows, but ambarmovic and chelsea changed football forever, i think its made it more exciting with forein owners pumping mass money, and we helped make the premier league the top league if anything. This is our legacy that we have left behind. Its over guys, it was fun, it was emotional, but the time comes for everything.

David luiz is aggressive but not clumsy. At times he may pay the price, but I am of the stance hes a world class defender at defending. Hes got pace, technical ability to tackle intercept, good in the air and always full of confidence.

A new right back, a worldclass defender(im sorry but iva is to slow and jt is getting old), however I dont think 4th goal was terrys fault, than its trash like malouda anelka drogba, and kalou that are still hingering. Replace with a worldclass RIGHT WINGER and de bryne for depth. Sturridge should be in rotation for rw and Cf. Torres wasnt great but his service was even worse. And lastly we need a worldclass attacking mid. Lampard played good, but second half was two slow and tottaly ineffective. 3 worldclass players+ a rb, is a big shopping list, but its honestly what we need.

United do not have a good chance @ moura, they would be hellbent to pay his estimated fee of 40mil and Manchester dosent have a great reputation amongst south american players and uniteds mananger dosent speak porteguese. I also think their squad lacks a player like ganso more than moura. Assuming moura is sold within 2 years i think madrid does not have place for him. They have caneles in their ranks and have sahin ozil arleady for attacking mids, and di mairia+hazard or neymar or even both as wingers. Barcelona may have interest in moura but they have thiago and sanchez can play in mid as well, among that chrisiten erikson has been very keen on joining them, its also pastores dream to play for barca. From what I have heard PSG have had the most interest in moura which means he wont go for cheap but im confident this wont end like the pastore chase did(if there ever was one in the first place).

Its not that I wouldn't want ross barkley, he looks a wayne rooney midfield version and having him piazon and josh makes the future of our midfield bright. But ross barkley compared to lucas moura or mario gotze? Not a chance. Imo lucas moura and gotze could be starts of barcelona or madrid if they pleased and it is this type of player we should be pursuing if want to ensure our ambitions as a top club. This does not mean that ross barkley has no chance of developing or turning out to be better than them? no but gotze and moura are arleady worldclass and as young as barkley, and we need a worldclass mid right now imo. Will buying another young mid kill josh? Quite the oppossite, it will just be finding the second piece to our future version of xavi instestia , and we will have great depth if piazon develops into a good player as well. Rameries still young and Romeu is young, and when competing in all 3 compettions it is impornant to have depth like this, not matter what competition a worldclass formation. But for that one special game in cl final who will start out of all this talent? Gives us such a tactical advantage to throw different formations at a team and the pleasure of picking whoever is most in form.

Am I the only one thats just sick of seeing drogba still in a blue shirt? Ppl say lampard is slow, holy shit open your eyes drogba has lost a step and is a bloody turtle on the field. Oh not to mention he gets a red card at the most ridiculous of times. Like the Torres card we were 2-0 and he was playing full of energy. But this when your down a man down?

Really unfair penenatly, and two sendings off, and possibly mata injured? How can this get any worse..... Btw I thought we should of sold drogba after 2008 final and still do. Its also the opportunity to go second has just gone up in shambles, all that happened this weekend was city building their lead, which we will not catch up to them.

WHY HAS NATURAL SELECTION NOT FILTERED OUT THIS UTTER USELESS P******** OF S***** KALOU, IS BEYOND ME. Other than that, I feel this is a loss that will ruin our season(ty kalou). With united looking bad yesterday we yet again failed to capitalized and this was the weekend we could really build some momement, but thanks to salmon kalou we wont. Trophyless...... what do you expect with that cunt in our line up

Its so fustrating, why has abramovich put up with kalou so long? Personnaly I would publicly stone him

Stevan Jovetic Date of birth 2 November 1989 (1989-11-02) (age 21) Place of birth Titograd, SFR Yugoslavia Height 1.83 m (6 ft 0 in) Playing position Second striker, Winger according to wiki. Dailymail among a couple of other unreliable sources had claimed were scouting him. I rubbished them aside considering we bought Lukaku, have torres, have sturridge, why need another striker? Well I found he can play winger and even cam. Ive seen him play a few times, and I can say he can easily big twice the signing drogba(ye thats saying something) was, this guy is torres with absurd technical ability and phenomenal ball control. Why isnt he worth 60 mil than? He had major ligament injury that took him 8 months to recover(and this injury is one that ruins careers) but from what I have read/heard he has recovered very well. He speaks english, serbian, italian. This morning I had assked freddieboswell if we were scouting him and if so is he good enough and this was the reply. FreddieBoswell7 Christian @ @TsalikisJason True,Jovetic is good enough for anyone mate. Yes boswell is not a god of being ITK for most things, but he is a former scout and current consultant, so I can't imagine he would be wrong about if a team is scouting someone. So we can safely assume we are taking a look at him. Here is a clip of him in action, yes its genoa, but still; I am worried however about his hair, it lacks a certain hold to it that luiz can boast and I question his burst from an aerodynamics perspective. I don't study mechanical or civil engineering so im clueless about fluid mechanics(yes air is a fluid), but im sure the math is not for this transfer. But other than that we could be on to something. Optimism anyone???

seems a good prospect, but for that price I would rather add another 20 mil and for gotze

----------------------Cech----------------------- Boswinga---IVA---Luiz---------Cole -----Merelies-----Rameries----- Anelka----Mceachran----mata ---------Torres------- Think we may see 4-2-3-1. Im asuming danny is injured, and players that played full match in cc are tired, example oriel.

I think you meant boswinga not benayoun

Don't know if it was mentioned in the previous 33 pages of this topic, but I noticed alot of empty seats? Can anyone explain is this usual for a tuesday night group stage cl game or something of concern?

I agree with shonx, but if torres does not look to ever get back into good form than , DARE I EDIT IT TO ......... Neymar- Strurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrridge-Mata, sometimes Lukaku for tactical reasons. This january could have a surprise for us.

he does have 5 months left on his contract, but it was recently confirmed by bolton people, it has a 1 year extension option.
