Agree about Pizarro - but there will never be another Bogarde, so there is no comparison. Bogarde was on full pay for 2 years or something with no games. Not that it was his fault. Pizarro was up front when he arrived about 'dont expect many goals' and I think the trio of freebies were Mourinhos names picked out of a hat because of cash restraints from upstairs.

Sounds like Huge Phil is going to keep him on... ''Chelsea are cooling their interest in Brazilian international Robinho because Real Madrid keep changing their asking price, and are now considering giving Shaun Wright-Phillips another chance to prove himself this season. The England international was told earlier in the summer that he would be allowed to leave for the right price but a decent showing in pre-season has caused Luiz Felipe Scolari to reconsider this.'' Independent I'm not too unhappy about this -he is frustrating sometimes but gives 100% and can be devastating. Crap crosser generally, but then a lot of wingers are, Gronkjaer anyone ? -why the fuck dont they practice more of this at Cobham, along with more set piece practice is anyones guess.

Dear oh dear. Yeah, because Cudicini is such a freeloader isnt he. Good god.

Reminds me of sminky pinky, Chris Waddle... Channel 9

This is JT as well- sounds like hes having a dig at Grant.... ''It's down to myself to drive this team forward again and push to get to where we were last season and further. "We showed great strength of character with all the disappointments we had last season, with the changes in manager. We showed what a great team we are. "Now we have a manager who can lead the team as well." (from Reuters news agency) Heres Scolari in 1984 , fuck knows what hes talking about. Any Portuguese translators ?

Where did it all go wrong ??? One minute you're on the crest of a wave, the next you're a crack whore or worse..... ''Andrei Arshavin's agent has told Sky Sports News that the Zenit St Petersburg playmaker would be interested in a move to Tottenham Hotspur''.

I had expecations of him when he came on against ManUtd. Another one that didnt make the grade unfortunately....

Well Lampard and Drogba obviously, and I might try and get some of the West Stand having a booo at Cech if they can put down their Sudokus. He seems to get injured a lot and I'm not sure it's genuine. This Phil Solarium fella , any good ?

Would settle for wins and sexy football second. It really is outragous that there are only five restaurants in Chelsea Village. It just doesnt give enough choice to the more discerning tourist...and Marco Whites is soooooo yesteryear. Eddie Barnett to be publicly castrated in the centre circle before the Pompey game. More Booing -it was ok last season, but lets get the whole ground boooing this time round....

What do people expect/want ? I would like the League as no 1, and think it'll be done. The CL after getting so close last time round would be my second wish, but it's a lottery , and would be surprised frankly if Terry is lifting it come May. FA Cup and League cups are attainable. Oh and prices to come down

No not the fat sack of shit, be sensible no one wants him, but young Anthony... Southend manager Steve Tilson is interested in signing Chelsea youngster Anthony Grant on a permanent basis. The midfielder spent time on loan at Roots Hall last season and impressed Tilson with his performances. Tilson was able to include Grant in his side for Thursday's pre-season friendly against Billericay and is now hoping to complete a deal. "He's available if we want him and we will be speaking again on Friday to see if something can happen," Tilson told the club's official website. "Sometimes it is better the devil you know and I think he would be a good addition to the squad. "He has versatility and he slotted into place nicely on Thursday night." Sky Sports Could be a good move for him...

Why I Left- Makalele "I would have been more comfortable staying at Chelsea," he told Le Parisien. "There, you are forced to be at your best and concentrate all the time and that’s how I like to be. I have always worked like that. "Your level drops when you are in a situation where you can take it easy. Football is not easy. People think that it is easy when you are at a big club and you have made it. But it is not. "You have to constantly prove yourself every day. "The main difference between Chelsea and PSG is on the pitch. "I have my family and friends here. I had to come back because it is the right time as I am still fresh. "I signed for a year with the option of another one." Setanta Sports

Agree, there'll be no one person playing that role -he created that job for himself and no one could touch him. Now different formations will apply.

On his way to Pompey now Muntari has joined Mourinho, according to several media stories this morning. Erratic form, and incredible that the club paid £24 million for him....

Now a pundit on TV , radio and all sorts of other stuff. 147 goals ! 200 odd with Speedie and Nevin. Clinched promotion with a 5-0 drubbing of Leeds with Dixon getting 3. Happy Days. ..and Happy Birthday as well

Agree. He was very good yesterday -and seems even bigger than last season. Scored in every game hes played , near enough ?

It would be an incredible signing -and maybe the silence is significant. Hopefully smiling soon holding up a shirt with a grinning Kenyon...

Nice kick about with the chemists. More importantly ...how many shirts have we sold ??? Got to hand it to Kenyon, the Chinese make the shirts, labour and materials about £1.50 each, and then...... sells them back to 'em. Some of the lucky ones even have Kenyons sig on. Blokes a genius with Romans cash.

So Ferreira for Bosingwa . Did Bosingwa start ?

Come on Di Santo bang a few in. Lol cuntish seeing as Essiens just signed a new contract

The danger is Madrid know how fat Romans wallet is and Kenyons been given a ceiling so there'll be a stalemate, and another lesser player will be bought in. Have to wait and see...

They treated him like a cunt, and inevitably was their loss. Very difficult to find a replacement for such a player.

He ended up with a few cards with goal stopping interceptions, but the game would be halted long enough for the danger to subside. I cant think of a more valuable CFC asset than him Abramovich and Mourinho over the last few years.

I hope you're right -though its incredible the amount of moves he stopped, balls he cut out, and perfectly timed interceptions completed in his games. No coincidence the bookies cut their odds when he left....

Yeah saw this -an alleged £40 million swap deal. Hopefully Drogba will stay, Essiens been rumoured to have been pressurising him not to go...
