Thats true, hence he mentioned that he wont play at Barca under Rijkaard.

Is he a more direct winger? does he showboat alot? As far as I know hes transfer to Barca few years ago was a TOTAL FLOP.

Hmm...so..Ancellotti has made his stand clear so has panderelli but the silence from Spalleti is deafening. When asked about the link up, he said I dont want to talk about it. Loooks like he is close to becoming our new manager. Also, Galliani knows who we are planning to employ as our new manager. To a question from a reporter he said, I am not going to tell you if the new manager for Chelsea is an italian. Which means, we already have almost struck a deal, only the unveileing is due.

Man UTd sell their most prized asset Ronaldo a winger to Real Madrid who already have Robben and Robinho as wingers and are trying for Hleb too. Now that Man Utd need a winger, I dont see why Madrid wouldnt sell Robinho to Man Utd unless ofcourse if Robinho has other plans and that is to come to Chelsea.

With Ronaldo now making clear that he wants a move to Real Madrid, I think Robinho will goto Man Utd in a swap+cash deal. I dont see Robinho coming to Chelsea now.

Well...The Club has already mentioned that they did not approach any club to talk to their manager. Which means, we are not looking at Ancelloti, Spalleti or the fiorentina coach. These are just rumours the press like to sstir up. Now, the statemet given by Chelsea also means that we are looking at someone who is not associated with any club and probably have in mind of employing Scolari as our next manager. Hence the wait, and I can see all of us getting frustrated till Portugal gets knocked off the tournament. Till, then we will see names being liked to our club for the manager's position.

Michael Essien's representatives insists the midfielder is happy at Chelsea and have denied he has any interest in joining Internazionale. There has been speculation that the Ghana midfielder would be reunited with former manager José Mourinho who was unveiled as the new Inter boss yesterday (Wednesday). But Essien's agent Fabien Piveteau, confirmed: 'Michael is very happy at Chelsea and that is where he will be playing next season. His current contract runs until 2012. There has been no approach from Inter.' Source:cfc official website. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fantastic news. I hope Riccy carvalho does the same.

Or probably something really wise, as we are NOT hurrying into this or not Panicking into appointing someone on his past laurels.

And by the time Euros is over, we will see most of the top performers in Europe already snatched by othe big clubs.

Yes, true...but you gotta compare the team of Roma with the likes of Fenerbache, Aston Villa, Getafe. Also, Zico took an average Japanese side to the Quarter Finals of the World Cup and an average Fenerbache side to the Quarter Finals of the UCL. I feel its just a toss of coin between the managers like Spalletti, Martin O Neill, Hughes, Laudrup, Deschamp and if you may add Zico. These managers have the "potential" to be great managers if they are given proper resources. And, as far as I am concerned its like taking a Gamble.

Well, Chelsea anounced that they held talks with Milan over Drogba and Sheva and Kaka of which only Kaka's transfer has been ruled out by milan, no word on the other two. So I guess, Drogba is probably bound to go to Milan. Jose will Definately bid for Riccy Carvalho. Damn Fucking Sure about it. I just hope Riccy stays. I would anytime prefer Riccy over Lampard.

I swear I had to rub my eyes and recheck the statement on skysports saying "Chelsea turn to Spalletti"...I mean WTF. With every passing moment we are going a step backwards. WTF has Spalleti done with Roma.? OK...he has got average sides with limited budget to reach within the top 5 in the leagueEg: Udinese and Roma. So have Martin Oneil, Hughes, Laudrup, Deschamps whohave done excellent work with average sides. Plus with Spalletti, I remeber the 7-1 drubbing that Man Utd handed out to his team, this when all they had to do was seek a draw at Old Trafford. Why the fuck arent we going for Zico.? He is with Fenerbache and he did an excellent work there. Does anyone else agree that Zico would be fantastic for our team.?

He will definatly go for drogba and carvalho not so sure about lamps. If atall lamps leaves he will go to spain because of his missus.

I know but its funny to see that on wiki when the deal hasnt been done yet.

Blackburn have confirmed they have agreed a compensation package with Manchester City for manager Mark Hughes. Having parted company with Sven Goran Eriksson on Monday, City have wasted little time in identifying Hughes as the man to succeed the Swede. City owner Thaksin Shinawatra was granted permission by Blackburn to hold discussions with Hughes on Monday. And Thaksin has now reached an agreement with Blackburn for Hughes, who is also understood to be a target of managerless Chelsea. A statement on Blackburn's official website read: "Blackburn Rovers can confirm that they have reached an agreement with Manchester City on compensation terms for Mark Hughes." The former Wales boss - who took over at Blackburn in 2004 - is understood to have until Wednesday to decide upon his future, but it is not believed that he has yet held talks with Thaksin. Meanwhile, City have confirmed that Hans Backe and Tord Grip have left their posts as assistant manager and first-team coach, respectively, in the wake of Eriksson's departure. Chief executive Alistair Mackintosh told City's official website: "Both Hans and Tord made a positive impact on those involved with Manchester City over the course of the season. "We thank them for their contribution and wish them every success in the future." Source:skysports. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So its done now. Hughes to Man City and Ancelotti to Chelsea.

Wikipedia already shows that he has joined Chelsea. I guess its an almost done deal.

well i know signing Rafa would be a joke, but he can win us the champions league and get us a 4th place finfish in the league.

JM has said that he is planning a raid on Bridge. He has mentioned that most of the players there want to work with him again. Of all the players I can only see Drogba moving to Inter and probably Ferriera. Lampard stays and for some reason if he wants to quit Chelsea, he will goto Barca. Rest will stay, and the underperforming ones will go to the mid table clubs.

I dont know if I am too keen on Hughes. OK....He is a good coach. But no xperience of managing a team in Champions league. I cant see how Hughes will help us win the Champions league. Mancini for me is a better option or even Rijkaard.

Gomis' goals are very Drogba'esq. I wont mind at all if Kenyon signs him for us.

One reason, why Drogba is considered the best is because 1) Ball Control..Excellent. 2) Strength and Pace. 3) Great in the air, Good at Free Kicks, Good at Penalties. 4) Class Finisher. Gomis is like drogba, but I am not sure how good he is at free kciks and penalties and ball control.

I dont know about the "bollocking" thingy, but Grant has slammed the Chelsea board. It is on skysports.

You can be the manager :thumbsup:
