its foolish to sell him, especially given nandos superb history of confidence, One thing I am sure of is danny boy will take his chances in the striker role, he wont be wasteful and definitely wont be hesitant to shoot in front of goal or look for a pass instead of strike it.

is this rumor real, it doesnt make sense on any end of it

We have one of the deeprest squads in the premier league this season, our bench is possibly KDB/mikel or lamps/ maicon/ luiz or cahil/ bertrand/ studge/ oscar or kdb or marin, we can finally be considered a top premier league team once again.

Lol I think we all forget not to long ago maicon was by a long shot along with ashley the best full back in the world and we will have him as a backup, last season brani/JT/cahill/luiz all went down, now we will have luiz/cahill/maicon/bertrand as backups, our team has so much squad depth this upcoming season

is there an actual chance he gets transferred when we have 1 striker who could implode if things dont start out right, plus we have so many fixtures this year, its good to have a good reliable second striker, he will get many FA cup/ some ucl games and a pl start here and there. Carling cup, I assume he will be our number 1 striker, we can pencil him in for 15 starts and probably 15-20 sub appearances throughout the season in all the competitions, he just has to make the most of those chances.

I wonder whether he will go out to the wing or stay as a playmaker i guess it depends if we go to a 4-4-2 or 4 -2-3-1 4-4-2 brani-jt-luiz/cahill-ashley ramires/studge-mata/eden-mikel/ramires/lamps-eden/mata torres/studge/hulk 4-2-3-1 same back 4 ramires-lamps/mikel- studge/hazard-mata/hazard-hulk/hazard/mata torres/studge I really want mata to maintain his number 10 role and have studge play as well

Lol its a common misconception that ronaldo moaned at united. He told fergie he wanted to go to real madrid since it was his dream as a child. They negotiated behind the scenes and agreed in december of 08 for a deal to bring ronaldo to madrid. They denied all rumors till the day of the transfer and he went on his way. It wasnt an unclassy and immature begging like cesc

There are a lot of rumors of modric going there, so you think he will play ahead of alonso and modric. In addition as stated before he didnt play when he was healthy, if you know anything about real Madrid, which is becoming more apparent that you dont, mourinho has his favorites and tends to stick to them until proven otherwise. People thought Kaka would be given a chance to earn back his starting role, but he as constantly used as a sub, despite showing glimpses of his old self. Sahin knows he does not have any secured time in madrid, so there is a full based logic of him leaving. Ignorance as yours makes me embarrassed to say I share a nationality with you

drogba: "I won't play for another English club. I am too attached to Chelsea. My blood is blue and it won't change." forever in our hearts

I agree its just the costs people will complain about. I think after this year its perform or go home, he has all the resources he didnt have previously, I dont think this year he can be the hustle player anymore and get away with it.

Its more imperative for him to have a good season than anyone else on the team aside from POSSIBLY hazard, it will send good vibes thru the bridge

guess your going to stop complaining mate

Im going to cry, I Love fernando but this is another reason WE CANNOT LET GO OF STUDGE, I promise studge doesnt pass in the box and tries to smash them thru and prolly scores once or twice

I think we should use studge and torres up top, it is power, pace and people seem to forget danny always has something nando sometimes lacks which is confidence. We know if he gets a ball in the box heel smack it and wont look to pass which nando suffers for. He can easily score 15-20 goals for us next year after scoring 13 as a winger, I cant imagine how many he will knock as a striker

3-1 was to villa

guys lamps was our leading scorer with 16 goals, if anyone watched our games it was a shitshow of the modern game, just side to side play, no creativity, therefore none of our forwards scored. That being said nando didnt help his cause, hopefully this year will be different.

I dont know about you guys but every time studge had the ball it seemed like he could create something out of nothing, I know he seems greedy but he is a naturally born striker, of course he is going to take his knocks on goal. For me personally he was my favorite player in the first half, he was just electric down the wings and had a knack for goal. I think its an embarrassment if we let him walk away because we didnt give him a chance as cf.

are torres and mata going to start for spain or is llorente the go to man, actually no chance mata starts xavi-iniesta-xab-silva are all probably ahead in the pecking order

hopefully this is the start of something that will be ordinary

fuck my life mate, I am victim to that

I think it is fair to say we played like shit from beginning till end. We didnt really kill the smaller teams the way we used to, even stamford bridge wasnt as big of a fortress as per the usual, aside european nights. Our style was too direct and drogba was the man for that. Torres seems like he strives off of confidence just like any player, he had drogba breathing down his neck the entire year. Now he is going into camp knowing that the 9 role is his and lets not forget his professional pride has been battered, so he will have extra incentive to make a statement. Ive defended torres for a long time now, but if the rumors of hazard are true and it is mata/hazard feeding him balls, it doesnt even take a world class striker to bag goals. He has shown signs of recovery but I am hesitant to say he is BACK. I agree he cant be given a permanent excuse, few months its, something else. Now there is NOTHING he can say just play

this is one of the ultimate trolls, ever, i thought the media reporting torres handed in a transfer request, was a troll, this will be the worst troll of all time amongst chelsea fans

correct, June* 2nd

No he plays out wide and he has such a high number of assists, every year, He seems like the player we are missing

The boy seems to get along with everyone on the squad, he simply wants to play his position. He scored 8 goals in 12 games last year on loan to bolton, he is a born scorer, as shown with his scorcher against qpr and few other cameos this year. We cant l;et him go, let him try the cf position i bet him/torres can wreak havoc on defenses.
