As much as I hate this poor excuse for footballer it seems he is quite marketable and probably has made he transfer fee and wages more tolerable. I guess this is the only positive..

I would assume that he has already sold enough shirts to justify his transfer fee and wages? Someone please present the facts..

He could sell more than £13m worth of shirts for Atheltico. Sign him you bastards. Get this dead weight out of our team.

Come home Drogba. We are waiting for you Sir.. http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/jul/20/chelsea-didier-drogba-one-year-contract "Didier Drogba’s return to Chelsea on a one-year-contract could be confirmed this week, according to reports in France, with the Ivory Coast striker then set to be offered a coaching role at Stamford Bridge when he retires from playing."

Please...

Interesting read on Louis Van Gaal http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/27511927

Yea I was like who is this beast lol. He didn't even run much.

I like the small stadium as well in terms of camera angles. Made it feel like I was watching it in person. Anyone feel the same ?

Not bad to get a win when 2-0 down in the second half.. I like having Oriel and Van Ginkel back. Gives us plenty of options and cover.

I f we sell Lukaku than he'd be at good signing. Costa, Drogba, and Torres

I like this guy. Great potential and definitely one to keep an eye on in future. Great ability to hold on to the ball and can take on players and pick out a pass..

I like what i have seen so far in pre season friendlies. His comfortable on the ball and can pick out a long accurate pass for runners up ahead. Need more time to judge his defensive capabilities but seem quite solid so far.

So why haven't we signed him yet ?

Went too cheap. His worth about £8 million in my books.

"Fernando Torres is set to join Inter Milan. He's just cut short a holiday in Cyprus to go to Italy and have talks with club officials." http://www.teamtalk.com/rumourroom/

Hi Mohammed Seif do you know a Khalid Ali from Kuwait who is a Chelsea fan by chance ? He plays keeper as well.

Can I ask if you guys both Jewish and Arab believe there will ever be peace for future generations ? I can only see a vicious circle of hate continuing. The middle east is a mess atm with Islamic secretarial in-fighting as well as the conflict between the Jews and Palestinians. What hope is there for your children with all this hate around. My conclusion is the human species is the 'Problem'. World peace will exist either when we destroy our planets ability to sustain us or we and we kill each off by nuclear, chemical and biological warfare.

I just want to put my 2 cents in here. I believe both parties have contributed to this current situation. In the ideal situation there should be one secular state shared by both Jews and Palestinians with equal rights and respect for each other. However as long as strong right wing conservatives exist and are given power on both sides this will never happen and it may even be too late. Do I see peace for this region within my lifetime? I really hope so but the older I get and the more I learn I am confronted by the selfish, destructive and crazy nature of mankind which makes me regress on this hope. Believe it or not everything is and has been manipulated by the 'elite' of this modern world who have unlimited control over the world and its citizens.

He will score tonight..

His a great squad player but an average first team player for a club like ours. I don't mind to keep him as a squad player. Gives us decent cover and flexibility.

This thread is too quiet. Why no transfer news. He will not leave until his contract finishes I predict..

Neymar - Suarez - Messi As much as i hate Barca that is a top frontline..
