Shane

I joke

This is paving the way for Milner...

FUCK OFF, OUR BEST PROSPECT FUCKING SOLD, DISGRACE

Squad numbers make no difference to me at all.

I've seen him for the reserves and I think he has the makings to be a better player than Ballack, and I also feel Ballack being there was hindering his progress. Ffs, With the way you were making out that first part you'd swear they died! Players come and go mate, Its not a sad day for Chelsea, Joe Cole was looking for too much and Ballack is past it, They were both squad players, nothing else in this day and age. I respect both of them for what they have contributed to the club I love for the last few years, Mostly Joey because he was a magician, But players move on, I've seen better players leave the club and I'm sure you will too. Maybe this summer. Also, You could call any player leaving an 'end of an era', But I feel that losing Joey and Ballack are the changes the club needs. Losing our old and hopefully giving players like Stoch, Matic and Kakuta a chance now.

Matic > Ballack

We practically won the title without him, Apart from that goal against United he didn't do much else when we were 0-0, 1-0 etc

He realises there will be other chances and also who pays his ages. Respect for Obi there.

Its his own choice though, He didn't want to go.

Not bothered about him anymore tbh, Isn't THAT good we shouldn't be giving him a big contract.

Somehow I hope you both lose!

I hope England lose 8-0 in every game with or without Terry

Really think if he was given another season Liverpool could be enjoying the likes of Scunthorpe and Leeds next year, Shame really.

Sad day for English football. A true great. We will miss you Rafael Benitez

How do I turn it off? Its a football forum ffs, Keep it simple. Thats just my opinion before anyone goes off at me

Decent player to bring on with 20/15 minutes to go though.

Your talking shite again, Thought you got out of that phase.

a Kaka, Lampard and Essien midfield would be unreal

Ghana's Michael Essien has been ruled out of the World Cup, according to the country's football association (GFA). The Chelsea midfielder has been struggling with injury and has been told he will not fully recover until the end of July. The GFA said that the decision was taken after a joint evaluation of his fitness by the national side and his club.

Drogba's first v Liverpool, That was thee goal that won us the league imo

Good luck Belleti! Fantastic player and professional, Asked to play in many different posistions and never complained.

Andriy who?

Yes, Your point is? If it happened to England or any other country I wouldn't have been upset for them.

Win the Champions League Retain the Premier League Go through the season unbeaten.

He gets paid 100k+ a week and just won the double, Also Germany weren't going to win the World Cup so I don't really feel sorry for him.
