English Freak

Don't think he'll end up like Pato. Pato's long term career is all but over, he'll probably have to retire like Dean Ashton. You can't really do much about certain players, they are just injury-prone.

Good team selection, except for Bosingwa. We might as well play Bosingwa or Romeu at CB with Ivanovic at RB.

Bosingwa has been shit at RB for over 2 seasons...he does better at CB than RB.

Just got outdone by two great goals from Cisse. It was just one of those days. Ahh-well, equation is SIMPLE now: Beat Bayern & we get UCL football instead of Spurs/Newcastle.

Joe Hart, he'll start every game and should be there for a long time..& because I don't like Gerrard.

Torres should start. Keep Drogba fresh for the games against Liverpool. Cech Ivanovic - Bosingwa/Luiz (if fit) - Terry -- Bertrand Lampard---Romeu Ramires---Mata-------Danny Torres

Completely agree. Can't wait to see these youngsters getting chances in the first team! Just hope our manager from next season (IF Robbie isn't given the job) doesn't overlook the young talents at their disposal.

No way, finishing runners up in BOTH cups?....This is our best chance of winning the Champions League.

Hope your dream comes true

As long as the fee is at most, 35 million.

Fair enough, pace is his main strength but he is still a CF, playing as a RW. There's no point playing Sturridge on the wing unless he can show that he is TEAM player and that he can PASS the ball on a consistent basis....Sure, it's good to be selfish/greedy once in a while or when your scoring goals for fun...but first, he has to understand, this is a team game if he wants regular game time.

I don't want Hulk..for the reported price of 35 million...surely there are better, value for money options available. How about that talented young Uruguayan midfielder playing at Bologna...Gaston Ramirez, can play LW/RW/CAM...he should be available for 17-20 million according to reports.

Can he handle the physicality of the Premier League? The kid has tricks, flair & apparently a good footballing brain...hope he does alright on the wings.

It's from the Sun..

You gonna bet your house on that?

Who cares what Mancini said, if Hazard wants money and group-stage UCL football, he can go and join City.

Best of luck to Bosingwa in the UCL final. Did well against Barcelona, but should be sold in the next transfer window as part of the rebuilding process.

He's a good squad player to have but if we get a bid of 15 million for him (it's possible...considering Anzhi are ready to splash the cash) then we should consider it.

Terry's challenge was one of the more interesting moments of the match (apart from Ramires, Torres scoring, Messi missing his penalty and the awesome tackle by Lampard on Fabregas).

Who knows maybe Ferreira will get to play at RB....stranger things have happened.

Arsenal just want him as backup for Walcott/Gervinho on the wings & backup for Van Persie at CF if he gets injured like previous seasons. Don't really see much point in signing him, he'll probably be at the same level as Kalou.

Wouldn't say signing Benayoun was a mistake, he's an experienced midfielder who is useful on the pitch and a good squad player to have at your disposal, kind of like that South Korean fellow at Man Utd,....but we failed to use him properly.

Courtois is fine at Atletico, he's enjoying his football and he is pretty much established as their #1 keeper. If an EPL club wants to sign him on loan with guaranteed playing time, so be it...i doubt Chelsea would loan him to Qpr after the whole Terry-Ferdinand thing.

Rather than giving so much game time to Torres who is still a massive flop, we could of given Lukaku the chance against the weaker EPL sides. Would be awesome to see Drogba & Lukaku playing upfront together, but i doubt that'll ever happen....Drogba will probably leave for China and Lukaku will become a forgotten man at Hamburg.

Think Van Aanholt's future will be at LW. I just don't see him becoming a quality LB at Chelsea. His development has stalled & now is the best time to make a decision about his future at the club....do we help him convert into a LW or do we sell him off.
