I don't want to be a total poo head, but I wish we'd replace Steve Holland now with someone who used to play with the club. With both Di Matteo and Eddie Newton (assuming he stays) having played for the club and now being part of the management, I wish we'd do similar with other parts of the club staff structure. He also rarely smiles which isn't nice to see It'd be brilliant if we could get someone like Zola, Vialli, Wise etc. being part of the DoF board set up.

I hope Eddie stays his assistant!

THERE'S ONLY ONE DI MATTEEEEOOOO!!!

Drogba is a legend, yes, but he would have never come here if it wasn't for the money. He originally never even wanted to come here. Tambling and Osgood are products of our youth system and are English. Tambling is our all time top scorer. Osgood is known as King Of Stamford Bridge. Zola is the finest import pre-Abramovich. Drogba is not the greatest Chelsea striker of all time. It's disrespectful to Tambling, Ossy and Zola to even think that.

lol, now he's calling Drogba our greatest ever striker ahead of the likes of Tambling, Osgood and Zola. Surely he's ?

"as much as any other player in the team! Fact!" Ah yes, forget Terry, Cole, Lampard, Cech and Drogba. TORRES IS THE REAL CHELSEA MAN! HE LOVES THE CLUB AND DESERVES THIS CHAMPIONS LEAGUE TRIUMPH JUST AS MUCH! FUCK OSGOOD, TORRES IS DA RAEL KING OV STAMFORD BRIDGE! XOXOX

Torres doesn't deserve a CL medal. Makes me feel sick knowing that we've given this Liverpool through-and-through player the most prestigious medal in club football, while the other 10 men on the pitch for us worked their arses off every game, while he just jogged around with his odd striker's tackle, fluffing chances, missing key passes etc. Oh and please - No BS about how he scored against QPR, Swansea, Genk etc. Maybe if he scored against a top side, things wouldn't be so bitter with me.

jmarlow referred to people as "haters". That instantly discredits anything he has said. Sorry.

I believe there is literally zero substance to this story. Wouldn't fit in this team at all, and there is no reason why the board would want him that I can think of. Malaga also wouldn't want/need to sell. Great poacher though.

I was thinking something along the lines of - Courtois Lahm, Cahill, Luiz, Bertrand Schweinsteiger, Mikel Ronaldo, Mata, Messi Neymar I'm sure we could get most of them on a free by around 2026, assuming they're still playing, or for just a few £million. (No one said how far into the future, so this is my future team!)

Let's all just have a big orgy.

Tottenham play with real wingers, and they finished above us. Manchester United play with real wingers, and they finished above us. They both play better, more exciting football than us.

Rumours claim that Harry Redknapp has resigned as Tottenham manager.

I'll just sum it all up quickly - 1: Hazard and Mata aren't wingers. They are both playmakers, one of which will be deployed on the wing position - but that does not make him a winger. 2: To be nervous about speaking to someone 1on1 means I should use your own quote on you - "Would you stop writing for a minute?". I can't debate or conversate with someone who seems 'scared' or 'nervous' to take things away from a public audience.

Hence me also stating in that same quote that I'm aware they play different positions, and making it clear that I'm comparing the level of how good they are to their own positions, and not the same individual attributes or qualities.

Excuse me? Did I at any point say that Jarvis or Farfan were as good as Hulk? Answer this question first. Secondly, I assume you haven't watched Porto this season to even think about including Fernando in your mini list there. He has been outstanding. If you 'REALLY' wanted me to stop talking here for the benefit of the topic, shouldn't you have considered speaking to me ONE-TO-ONE through a private message? Ah, which questions were those? You will ask me through a private message if you care about this topic so much.

I assume you're trying to be short without actually contributing to the debate at all in order to get your "rep" up as you assume what you wrote will get you 'likes'. If you wouldn't mind, tell me - What written in that piece you quoted is a joke?

He's valued at £1mil.

Fernando is easily the best defensive midfielder in the league. Cardozo is astonishingly prolific, almost like, but not quite as good as, Falcao. Aimar is magic. Gaitan shouldn't be in the list. Patricio is one of the best players in the league, and easily and by far the best goalkeeper. Better than most of the Premier League 'keepers. Capel has single handedly won games for Sporting all season, including some magic efforts in the Europa League. Best actual WINGER in the league. Gomes is one of the greatest players to ever play in the league. Lima has easily been on Hulk's level this past season. Have you seen how many goals he scored?

Ramires has been a breakout player this season (and on the right wing, too), so I see no reason why he should be dropped or put in a less influential deep role. I absolutely love watching him tear defenders a new bumhole on that right side. He's also been scoring quite a bit, including that goal vs. Barcelona.

Fernando Cardozo Aimar Gaitan Patricio Capel Gomes Lima All equal-ish to Hulk. (I'm aware they play in different positions most of them, but they're to their position as what Hulk is to his position.)

TransferMarket's evaluation of Hulk (they usually overprice players by around £5mil-£7mil, so he'll actually be worth even less than the following price): £30mil / 34mil euros.

Yep. Seen him for around 3 or 4 years I believe as I follow Sporting Braga. Those fans lie. There are at least 10 players in the league who are equal or better than him.

The point of us buying a WINGER though is so that TORRES scores. If we buy another player who'd rather shoot and pass/cross (ala Sturridge), he won't start scoring again, and then more and more people will complain about not having a 'true' winger.

Worth £38mil. This compilation video PROVES it. He's like a mix of Raul and Nistelrooy. ROMAN SIGN HIM UP!!! smh. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_PIkvLSG0E
