I don't know how Matic is not in people's top 3. When all 3 of our losses came when he didn't start. We were all worried for both Newcastle and Tottenham away, because we knew No Matic=No Party. I think a lot of people are overlooking the effect Matic has on JT and the entire defense. Edit; Wow, don't know how i messed that up, he did indeed play against Spurs. I was sure he didn't. :tophat:

Haha your right @The Chels,. It isn't like last year where our needs were glaring Now that we've won the PL, all that these journos know is that JM has said we'd make 2/3 signings, all they can do now is link #CFC with every prospect under the moon. I just hope we don't have a long drawn out transfer saga. Don't think i can survive another Cavani and Hulk saga. That shit was so annoying lmaoo

Hazard gets 200k, after his new deal. Here's all the player wages: http://www.totalsportek.com/football/chelsea-player-salaries/ As you can see, we really have a stable wage structure...

What if i told you the same can be said about Marco Reus :eyebrows:

Pogba would only come to Chelsea because he wants to try and be a legend in the EPL scene, he views England as the toughest league and wants to challenge himself,, he falls for Jose Mourinho and wants to work under him along with the prospect of playing with Hazard/Cesc/Matic/Costa. We may offer Juve a bid just as high as the other clubs, but i don't see the Board and JM offering Pogba the farm, which would be the transfer fee AND top wages. The wages PSG/Barca/Real offer will all be higher imho, and with PSG offering already around 215,000 Pounds/pw, (converting the above mentioned 15M Euros after taxes that @Nadav TKL posted) and while JM mentioned how wages made us avoid Di Maria all together, in this high-profile transfer saga and with his obnoxious loud mouth agent there's no way we could even give him high wages without the world knowing. For me, i'd make an exception for such a great young talent in Pogba and offer him wages equal to Cesc/Costa already. But the Board & JM will do what they deem fit. My hopes are slowly fading because saying no to Barca & Real is a hard thing for any footballer to do. He'd need to have the mindset of Hazard who from day one said England was where he wanted to be. Nothing has leaked as far as his motivations behind his next move, and thats good on him for focusing solely on his job at Juve.

Not really. It's just because Gary Neville mentioned it yesterday on MNF. Yes Bale has been treated so poorly from the fans and media. This season alone, CR has cursed him out on 1-2 occasions for not passing to him. Fans have whistled whenever he tries to shoot, and on 2 accounts have hit his car ( one was early in the season around Aug. and recently after the El classico defeat.) To put it bluntly, he's been treated like crap, and is the new scapegoat for the madridstas. And although he has been poor this season, none of these actions should be condoned. However Florentino Perez has vowed that Bale is going nowhere, because this was 'his' buy, and he's anxious for him to be universally accepted by the fans, but that hasn't been the case so far. Bale even recently said he's going nowhere. And if they sold Bale, many teams will look to rip them off (as they should) because they know he's not wanted there, so all in all i think Bale will stay.

We should be going all out for Marco Reus. With Klopp leaving, reports of Hummels/Gundogan on the way out, they will most likely look to cash in on their stars and rebuild the squad. I highly doubt Reus wants to spend his prime years playing for a team going through a major overhaul. Things have changed greatly since his contract extension in Jan. so I'm sure he'll be available. He can play anywhere across the 3, and as a ST. He has a high work-rate and tracks back, sound technically, good at set pieces, and can be another major goal threat. Marco Reus,, Koke/or some other CM who can be trusted in the major matches. A backup GK, promote some youth players thaat will honestly play like RLC & Ake. And we should be set to defend to title. ------------Courtois(new 2nd GK) Ivan (Ake)--John Terry--Cahil (Zouma)--Azpi (Luis) ----Cesc (RLC & another CM)--Matic (Mikel) Reus(Cuadrado)--Willian(Oscar)--Hazard ----Diego Costa (Remy & Reus)---

Goal: Moment: Maybe i'm prisoner of the moment here, but that game vs Leciester away. Everybody was having a go at Didier 'Tha King' Drogba, and while he was poor in that first half, some of the comments were soooo out of line. Yall were acting like it was his fault Costa & Remy weren't available, and he's simply trying his best. The team was sluggish/poor in the 1st half, everybody was having a go at the team and JM for our bad play the past couple of months and you could sense some people thought we may not even be that worthy of champions. And then the second half happened. We really looked like title winners, scoring 3 unanswered goals giving Leciester no sniff at all on goal. Drogba scored to answer his critics, 'Capitano' fantastic popped up with another crucial goal like he always does, and Rambo turned back the years with a strike from his 2011/12 season. Winner winner chicken dinner as we all breathed a sigh of relief that we were 3pts closer to the title. :blue scalf:

Thats what i like to see...

There's been a bad omen with the Community Shield recently, where the past 4 winners haven't gone on to win the League.... Having said that, i dont think i'd mind losing to Villa

Great article from Fabregas on the telegraph.. And happy Birthday Cesc! You'll slowly become a true blue i feel. Jose Mourinho best manager Ive Had

As far as Icardi is concerned (and myself as an Inter fan), he really should stay at Inter to continue to develop. He doesn't have much versatility to his game like Remy who can play RW if need be. He plays almost exclusively on the shoulder of the defender looking to run/recieve passes into the channels. He's not a dribbler/link up maestro, so i can't see what he doesn't offer that Remy and Costa don't. He is lethal, but so are our 1st and 2nd choices STs already.

He didn't just come to the dark side, he came to the winning side! It's amazing how many players view us as the side to join when they want to win trophies nd all. I had feared we were losing that bit as the Mancs kept exchanging league titles, but Cesc, Costa, Luis, Willian and Hazard (after the CL win), all had that feeling that at Chelsea they'd win important titles. That's a great trait to have, at the club. Long may it continue!

We're currently on a 15 match unbeaten streak, really dont want to lost that as the season winds down tbh. Hope we dont completely turn off, but its whatever if we do. But I swear, if RLC and Ake aren't given significant minutes in these final 3 games...

Holler At Ya Boi!!!!!

John Terry what an Interview!! Hahaha Fat Spanish Waiter!

Come on, not Zouma too...

BLUE IS THE FUCKING COLOR!!! Lets Gooooo

But they has all the possession!! Lmaooo

only small teams do that mate..

Look at this comment i found about Ramires

I seriously believe this transfer only happened because Reus just had to go sign that contract extension... I really hope we still go buy a top winger this summer, otherwise, they'll be a lot of anxious people....

Played out of his skin today, gotta give it to him. I've been one of Willian's doubters, and its good to see him spring into good form. And if Willian gets more playing time at #10 next season, there's no doubt in my mind we need another RW (lol). We all know his work-rate, but he's a good carrier of the ball from defense to attack. Picking the ball up at the edge of our own box and simply leaving the opposition with no chance to re-group and get organized. That being said. My main gripe, as its always been is his lack of goal creation and goals. So we'd need a Reus/Bale like figure of equal stature to Hazard if we move Willian to CAM (especially in the Big matches). That way he's passing the ball to class finishers and better goal threats in attacking positions, besides the likes of Cuadrado/Rambo.

Absolutely beaming after that match. Really turned it on in the 2nd half, and Leicester did fuck all. Willian was great today with his work-rate and pace with the ball forcing the issue/ and being that spark plug. And would you know it JT and Drogba provided the goods as they have so many times over. I know a lot of people (me included) want us to finally move on from Drogba, but you gotta appreciate these final joyful contributions he's providing to the club. It wasn't his fault Costa & Remy are injured, and he's trying his best to still be a productive player for us, and he's done it again. Tha King!
