Special Juan

Shaw told he isn't fit and has to train on his own with a special schedule.

A man is arrested for drink-driving while in charge of a lawn-mower on a busy road..Police have said he was half cut.

50M for Luiz....buy Costa and still have the odd 15M laying around.

It was a quite unbelievable clearance.........I actually think now he is actually missing on purpose.

Quite surprised at his pace yesterday, he looked very sharp.

I know what fulham broadway is saying and tend to agree, but I also think it just shows how badly we have missed such a player like Fabregas. He does the simple things very well, and that may sound simplistic to some but sometimes the simple things are the things that change games. He played a ball over to Costa yesterday who was on the shoulder of the last defender and was caught just offside, but that typified what we need and what I was on about regarding a simple ball.

He's got exactly what he wanted in this window, all positions covered and ready to go. I'm delighted the business we have done, just no injuries please and more good results in pre-season.

Just bumped into Craig Hignett who is now part of the boro management team and he said they are close to agreeing a loan deal for Bamford.

Zouma cracks me up.

Plenty of time for all that.

Definitely.

AC Milan are finished, such a poor side now.

When it started and I heard that music I thought it was a sex video.

Lovren 20M

A mate said to me in the pub today he cannot believe how strong we look, and that's coming from a fan who doesn't like Chelsea. We are, we look hugely strong on paper but also after today very strong in real life form too. This club has been very smart in the transfer window, very smart. Cesc, Costa and Luis are hugely pivotal to what direction we are going in and we need to allow them to settle in and kick on, because they will, they are top quality players who add so much for this team. It's also great to see the young kids smiling, getting time also, and not just that but we look a unit, a happy unit that to me looks like a bunch of out and out winners. Strap yourselves in because this is going to be a great season kids. BOUNCE IN A MINUTE, WE'RE GONNA BOUNCE IN A MINUTE, BOUNCE IN A MINUUUTTTEEEEEE!!!! FUCK EM ALL, FUCK EM ALL, UNITED WEST HAM LIVERPOOL, CAUSE WE ARE THE CHELSEA AND WE ARE THE BEST, WE ARE THE CHELSEA SO FUCK ALL THE REST……...

Sometimes the simplest things done are hugely beneficial.

He's painting his toenails.

That goal couldn't of been any more of a shot in the arm for the lad, now he will be buzzing, it was a top goal and great finish. I said before I think he is perfect for how we play. Get in!!

This guy was excellent today, his vision was brilliant.

Massively impressed by Cesc today, his vision was immense, something we have missed.

Great win.

They have been a joke, doesn't even matter about it being a pre-season friendly at all.

Yep, he's shit.

Torres dear me

This has been very impressive so far. Yes we went a goal down but players such as Costa, Cesc and Luis have been very very good. Lots of positives from this, and I am sure Jose will be very pleased.
