Badboy

The thing i worry about is the mobility of alex, he is very slow at turning and against a striker like david villa or samuel eto'o he will be burned. Ivo worries me too, he is quick but his agility is poor also, bruma has good agility though.

Defo Drogba

Our french players have largely had amazing technical abilities, they have been pure footballers with amazing touch and technique.

Agreed i think they will park the bus infront of goal and with ricardo fuller they have a very unpredictable forward !

Drogba was man of the match by far !

Kalou scored 2 goals against a beaten time CALM DOWN !

Mikel has played well in the middle his positioning has been top notch, also a.cole has been dangerous down the left wing !

Lol but why does essien love chelsea so much he would do anything for us. You never here essien being in contract talks with the club he just signs lol BREAKING NEWS ON SKYPORTS ESSIEN HAS SIGNED NEW 5 YEAR DEAL MORE INFO COMING SOON.......... LOL that is the way he deals with the club. He is just happy playing football his agent probably has no use to him hahahahah i love the guy !. Even the way he fought lyon to come to chelsea fc , fucking hunger strike lol hahahahaha MICHEAL ESSIEN THE BLUE WARRIOR !

Kalou is not very quick at all, he is average at best.

Michael Essien has decided to temporarily stop playing for the Ghana national side in order to focus on his club career with Chelsea. Essien sustained a knee injury at the African Nations Cup in January that ruled him out for the remainder of Chelsea's season, as well as the 2010 World Cup. "I think I will be taking a break," Essien said. "Not retiring, just not playing for time. I have to take the right decision for myself. I don't know whether they will be disappointed because they have done fine without me." Essien's statement comes as a real setback for Ghana coach Milovan Rajevac,who said recently that he was looking forward to Essien returning to the Black Stars squad having missed the World Cup in South Africa. "Michael is still an important component of this side, he is a special player," Rajevac said. "Essien brings a special dimension to this team. We are looking forward to having him back with us."

That is because he is a pure goal hanger his lack of technique when shooting forces him to stand by the goal keeper. Anelka and Malouda impose there ability on other teams, Kalou is a total waste of space in my opinion. Also kalou is not even that quick, i don't know were people get that myth from, i have seen richard dunne out sprint kalou !

Is that a nice way in saying you don't like TX ?. Listen mate calm down no one is saying play a team full of youngsters. People just want the club to integrate youth in now so in 2 years time when didier and lamps are old foggies we can put players in who are familiar with how things work at the club.

His CEO has got to find ways to generate cash for the club, under romans orders i would think.

I think 5 pounds is nothing to see the players train for 1 hour, you cant even get into a cinema for that these days. The money we give the club will help it like what wilson said. Roman has come from a foreign land and he saved our club from crumbling like leeds utd. We were signing players like jimmy floyd hasselbaink and lampard for prices that we could not sustain as a business, before roman came the banks wanted to rip us apart. Now roman owns the club he has made us better than any time in our history, now people are complaining about 5 pounds to see players (ROMAN SIGNED WITH HIS OWN MONEY) like Drogba and essien players ROMAN signed for 20+ million.

please everyone this is a must watch video lol hahahahahyahahahahahaha watch the whole thing !

You know shit about kakuta, you have probably never watched a game he has been involved in. I don't even think they would show brazilian "soccer" in america for you to even watch neymar so stop talking out your bum !

Lol that was quick hahahah good for him though, i love 5 a side by the way it really tests your ball control !

Exacly he is probably along with Drogba the only one we struggle to replace !

Chelsea defender Alex has compared the club's new signing Ramires to current midfield star Michael Essien. Brazil international Ramires completed a big-money move to Stamford Bridge from Benfica last week and has been handed the No.7 shirt. Alex feels his compatriot's playing style is similar to that of Essien and is confident Ramires will be a success for the Premier League champions. "I was talking with Jose Bosingwa and we were saying how Ramires is a lot like Michael Essien," Alex told the club's official website. Expectations "He's not as strong as Essien, but he has the same style on the pitch. "He goes forward very quickly, then he comes back and marks very well. He's a very good player. "It's very important for me and the team that the midfielders go to shoot and arrive at the goal, but then get back to mark. "He's almost the same as Michael Essien like that, so I am expecting a lot of goals, which is important for us. "He will get to play with Michael Essien, John Obi Mikel and Frank Lampard, we have a very good midfield group and he will do a great job for us." Skysports

Seems as if the boy can not figure out if he wants to stay or leave in my opinion his price tag is not value for money at all !

In my opinion lukaku is more a Chelsea player then neymar he has the type of qualities that we like at this club. Big strong quick and fearless, also a very good finisher and fantastic in the air !. I don't want neymar, i was really excited about him before but when you take the price into consideration he just ain't worth it !. We have danny sturridge who in my opinion if he was Brazilian he would have a 30 million price tag on his head.

Neymar is a striker first and foremost he can play out wide but his future will be through the middle. Pato and neymar are similar in terms of their qualities both are quick good dribblers and both are good finishers, but pato has a bit more in his locker in my opinion.

If i could choose i would pick pato ahead of neymar all day long i think when it comes to movement and finishing pato is better.I also think someone at the club obviously does not like fabio borini because if neymar were to come it would be bye bye fabio !

Matic is not going to gain anything by going to a league that is crumbling like serie a.
