Its accutally Joesph you idiot.

Compared to the young manager you wanted.

I think we will win the Premiership. I disagree with badboy saying that we lack pace when Essien, Zhirkov, Malouda, Anelka, A.Cole and Bosingwa are all fast players. Our defence is our main worry, JT is not what he used to be but I'm hoping Alex/Carvalho will be playing well when there played. Our midfield is arguably the best in the world. Zhirkov, Malouda, Essien, Lampard, Ballack, Deco and Joe Cole is a fantastic midfield, We can rotate alot which will make the players fresher and hungrier. I thought last season that we lacked competition for places which won't happen this season. Our strikers, Drogba, Anelka, Sturridge, Di Santo and Kalou are quality. I think Drogba will have a great season this season, Sturridge has already looked promising, Di Santo will hopefully get games and do well in them and Kalou is hot and cold but if we play him at the right time can be deadly. The Champions League is always the main goal, We have a man in charge that has won it twice and with the squad that we have I feel that we can rest players before the main games. I feel that ithis is our best chance to win the league and Champions League in a long time.

Damn.

Last season we had a man that had little or none club experience and was only proven as an international manager. You rarley need a 'Plan B' with International management and usually if you have a bad spell you have to wait a long time before your next match or knocked out of the tournment. Carlo is a two time Champions League winner, a Serie A winner and knows how to be succesfull in Club managment, So he will have to have 'Plan B' and knows how to have Consistency. I also blame Scolari's lack of club managment for the misuse of Deco, not to play him on the wing. He would be okay in a series of matches like they have in International, But consitency took in and he got injured.

Fuck Terry and his new contract, He can either go to City or stay with his old contract. He wants more wages and if he wants them he can fuck off to City.

I can't believe Arsenal bought a player for 10 million and are now bidding 7. Whats football coming to?

Well its 26 days since Carlo took charge at the club, and really there has been nothing but good vibes from him. Trying to prevent injurys, Trying to keep key players and it seems he has a great relationship with all the players, Especially Drogba. I also read today that he said managers would be wasting there time to get him into mind games, He is not into that. A really succesfull pre season aswell, I know we have only had 3 matches, But 3 good performances, with players like Drogba, Sturridge, Deco and Ashely Cole playing very well. You can only admire Dider Drogba's two goals against both Milan clubs. This might mean nothing but in Preseason you see teams like Man United beating Mayalsia 3-2, and Liverpool drawing with Thailand. I think we will roar out of the starting blocks this season. There seems to be little negativty from the Chelsea camp so far, Hopefully its going to be a succesfull season.

IMO if we had Joey Cole and Essien for all of last season we could have won the league. This will stop this from happening again.

Since Essien has come back I realised how much i loved him, Defo getting him on the back of one of my shirts next season.

Yup. Don't like the style of the jersey but when I wear it I am wearing it with pride which is good enough for me.

Michael Essien without a doubt.

I hate the new home jersey, But paid 50 quid for it and wear it, I'm wearing it now accutally, Because of that little crest in the top left corner.

Yes, a marquee signing is one of the best players in the world, Someone that should start week in week out and someone that should be a key player. We could have a backup as good as Shevchenko with wages of £20,000.

We should go with the 4-3-3 next season, To make room for Mikel, Lampard and Essien.

Who the fuck wants a backup with them wages?

Fuck off Pizarro.

Get in Zhirkov

I'll be honest and I only started having an intrest in Football about 6 years ago. It was accutally a week before my birthday and alot of my mates supported football teams, I consulted my older brother who is a Man United fan and asked him who I should support, He suggested Chelsea as they will be good next season as RA just took over and were linked with many players. From that day I supported Chelsea and couldn't give a shit if i'm called a gloryhunter, because a gloryhunter would have left when we went 3 years without winning the league.

Think Drogba will be unstoppable next season.

Who is on the bench?

Not sure about the diamond tbh, But time will tell.

Tbf if I supported any team in the world I would still hold Essien the highest regard, Total legend.

Come on, Terry isn't 100% sure he wants to stay at Chelsea, He would have came out and completly laughed off reports, and he does need to come out, as does any footballer when being strongly linked away to a club that can splash cash.

Wait, This isn't in an hour is it? Hope Pato plays, We can show him what he is missing out on.
