No, Mourinho will choose Ramires and DL in both position until we got Matic. Once Matic was here, the combination of DL-Matic became the best. But as you stated before, in some matches Ramires was not eligible, similar DL, he had some injuries and such. But when fully fit, It would be Matic-DL

I will say the same thing, dude I don't know what your trying to get at. Matic can't play cl. In pl in big games it was Matic and DL.

Matic not available for cl....

City vs Chelsea. It was more the case after that match. Not before when we didn't had matic.

Who said that? Has he chosen ramires over DL in the big matches? I don't remember, he prefer to use DL and matic as it gave him a better combo.

Anybody who choses ramires over DL in the cm position you lose it for me. I agree with everything about being a good business and all that. But for Chelsea it won't be if we sell DL and stick with ramires in the mid. That's just been shit for this whole season. If we sell DL and can get someone better then ramires and DL for CM then it will benefit us greatly. Otherwise I rather keep DL then continue with ramires in mid.

They are good. The football transfer rumor is just discussing rumor from other sites. So only that is not reliable.

Pardon my lack of knowledge, but not sure if this has been mentioned before. Can Oscar play next to Matic as a DLP?

After the summer window is over I will post my expectation.

Just because Mata was warming the bench a bit does not means nothing. He had two good seasons, it's hard to sustain insane season back to back. David Silva at City had two good season, one bad season and then a better season. Under Benitez Lampard and Terry was bench warmer. It's all depending in the state of the player and who's managing the team. But I keep stating, you could sell anyone in the team as long as you have the proper target lineup.

We could sell Oscar, Hazard, Matic and everybody if we wanted. What makes the "right" thing to do is if either we have the right replacement or use the money to buy someone better.

Cahill might be good on the pitch, but not a natural leader for me. After Terry leaves...which god knows who then it has to be someone that command respect like it was Terry and Lampard. So as to all the players out their in the field I don't think I see anyone with that attitude. David Luiz is a friendly character but not in the mold of Kompany, Terry, Gerrard, Lampard and such. I think this is why despite Cole might be leaving, as well Lampard, Terry is still vital for us. Because we have yet to get that natural leader in our team. And the price on DL being quoted is on Euros, don't confuse Euro vs Pounds. I guess that would put us at 33 million pounds if it's the range of 39 million Euros

Kalas played in vitesse not sure if that counts? Thought he had to play in England and such?

Would be good if we could knew our expenses. Like how much do we expect our wages to be and such? Cause we might actually turn a profit in the new reports.

Agreed, look at how much Mourinho payed for Coentrao at Real Madrid? I think he learn from that. This is just an extortion men.

Interesting, I assume it's because of the TV money increase that kick in this season?

Torres to stay? hahaha that's a good optical illusion like this boat in the background:

Or let the new mods showcase their power by temporary banning this lot.

We should win our game if Liverpool slip up so we can finish second.

With a possible Liverpool tie or lose, we need to win to finish second. That would be amazing!

Chelsea defender Tomas Kalas says he dreams of emulating his childhood hero John Terry at Stamford Bridge. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11668/9306647/premier-league-chelsea-defender-tomas-kalas-wants-to-emulate-his-hero-john-terry

They won't get Oscar but with them liking David Luiz that's good cause it will increase the price between Barcelona and them.

Special Juan and Rmpr

Yeah forgot about Zouma. Kalas did good against Liverpool but the dude did not get much chances this season. He was really mad at mourinho before. Not sure if he changed his mind but I wouldn't mind seeing him given a chance in the new season. I would also be interested to see if next season there's a step up to the younger players from the Academy. Cause I remember reading this from mourinho some months ago that starting next season we would bring one player from the Academy.

I like this, and would love to see this report. But I think the club can do two things for the next season. One address the short term problems and throw the money like city did in the season. This would bring a short term fix as more then likely the players will be at their peak or end. Or continue to build for the future. Like acquiring more younger potential targets like Oscar, Salah, Schurrle and the like. Each option brings different responsibility. The first you are expected to win trophies. The second, the club might be more lenient considering the state of the players your bringing in and perhaps implementing youth from the Academy. Let's see what is the plan the club will go with this summer.
