We need Sturridge ourselves... lol Even if we let him go, I still think Bolton is the better destination.

Bertrand ahead of Gibbs during the U21 tournament under Pearce.... YET when the season starts... Gibs is in the starting XI for Arsenal while Betrand has to be content for a bench place sucks for him

I pray for Josh not to get any serious injuries.

considering the amt of investment we put into the squad... not only the board has a part in it. i think the players themselves are partly overrated? Sad to say mikel, kalou and probably malouda seems "bad" at that point of time

Waiting for him to get a single digit number.

Actually I kinda feel our youth players dont have the mental attribute to stay calm and be determined to break into the first team. Partly also due to the board/management not giving chances though.

You are missing out on Ezeko and Balotelli...?

Maybe... but I'm thinking how many replacements we will have... and how fast they will gel and blend together.

No offence but this is a very optimistic thread. You didn't analyse the Chelsea squad... which is many of them is REALLY REALLY ageing. A.Cole, Malouda, Lampard, Anelka and Lampard are the obvious ones. No players will improve year after year especially when they are already in their 30s

I think Kakuta can go to either Bolton or Wigan. Especially when Bolton has Lee out for a few months. Hope the loan gets a little official soon.

Mikel looked like he wants to impress AVB.... but kinda fail in it.

Who just gave him the jersey no. 6 on wiki? lol!

Honestly would had prefer for him to stay. I mean his set piece is the best honestly... he can also fill in at LB. Now I guess Betrand or PVA will stay to provide cover?

Anelka is horrible Either Kalou or Anelka should make way... lol

mceachran's pass is superb

I want to see Kalas more

Bosingwa lazy to go back to his position lol

The flick-on header is good man First time i see a cross connected from bosingwa to drogba

what a goodball by benayoun but anelka did what a youth striker will do-shooting straight to the GK! so much experience lol

honestly i think the best position for lampard is as a deep lying playmaker instead of a b2b midfielder. dun think he can run as much. he appeared less sharper

That just changed Lampard's morale from good to normal

worst PK lampard given lol so low and close to the goal keeper....

I'm surprised the penalty is given

Will we get to see kalas????

Torres and Kalas looked similiar lol
