c'mon di santo, prove us wrong!

when Kick-off?

This!

5 million isn't that steep in todays finances.

good, because he did nothing wrong. He let to expand his career, and did it without any wrongdoing.

with all these clubs interested in him, it would make it a hell of a lot easier to sell him if he fails against Ajax, and we could also maybe be able to gain a more larger amount of money for him also.

Kalou is better as a Winger then an attacker, and only as a sub.

In the right direction for the club, finally, but at least they are getting there. There being: SIGNING PLAYERS INSTEAD OF LETTING THEM GO!

I think he is giving all three goalkeepers a chance in order to give them time which will help build fitness fior the upcoming season, and it also gives all of them a chance to show how good they are, imo Turnbull is now better then Hilario and i would say it was about time Hilario left the club as he isn't needed anymore. I think that we have signed his replacement in Delac who will becoming to the squad sometime this season, maybe January.

Hahahahahahahaha11 Sorry, McClaren looks like that one he had a taste of Chelsea Youth, he can't go back to others. The only thing to say is that Bruma is too good to go on loan, and should be used as the emergency defender and getting starts against teams like Bolton alongside Terry. And when Carvalho leaves, he is ready to replace him.

i thought that also, hahaha guess they are trying other ideas, being other club designs

After the triumpth of the FA Youth Cup, there are more names that are added to the youngsters that want to breach the barrier that is the unstoppable force called the first team. But with so many prmosing youngsters and some others that need the faith, which would you choose? Who would you sell and who would you loan out? And who would you give chances too! For me, i am a keen believer in Scott Sinclair, and even though he has had loan spells all over, all not to the impression in whic we all wanted i think he hasn't been given the faith in him to develop or show the skill and talent which he has. In the last friendly he has shown me he deserves to be given a chance in a CHELSEA shirt then any other team, due to the fact that he isn't used in the right way. At Wigan, he was used more as a striker then as a winger, something which, in my opinion, isn't the best position in him. With Wigan battling against relegation throughout the season, his game time was low then he deserved. I think if Carlo used him as a sub, a super sub if you must, in that odd 10 minutes he can create chances from nothing. I also believe in that we could use players like Sturridge right from the start against teams like Bolton, Wolves, etc. because we have very good players that can help bond confidence. So for me, to loan, to sell and to give chances is: Loan: McEarhan, Clifford, Borini (mixed), Mitrovic, Sebek, Sala, Walker, Philliskirk, Lalkovic, Sell: Di Santo, Mancienne, Woods, Mellis, Given Chances: Kakuta, Bruma, Sinclair, Betrand, Van Aanholt, Hutchinson, So what is yours?

I see the three playing upfront of a 4-3-3 in the future to be: Tore/Lalkovic -- Sturridge/Borini/Mitrovic -- Kakuta/Sinclair I think that Sinclair CAN still have a chance of being in the 11, but just needs some faith. I think he knows that and is eager to show Carlo his promise. He had done more in three minutes on the pitch then Di Santo did for one and a half minutes. He is skillful and fast, which is something we need on the wing now that Joe is gone, Kakuta, Kalou and Sinclair should be given that right wing role throughout the season, with Zhrikov or Anelka on the left (Malouda in left centre of midfeild) against teams like Wolves and West Brom. Also, would like to see Chalobah have some time on the ptich in an EPL game, just give the lad the record of being the youngest player to represent Chelsea. He is such a promising player, and the fact that when he will be old enough to push for a first team regular it would be about 5 years in the future. Team for me in LC games would be: Delac Van Aanholt/Bertrand -- Bruma -- Chalobah/Cork -- Hutchinson Matic -- McEarhan -- Clifford Lalkovich -- Borini/Sturridge/Mitrovic -- Kakuta Subs: Turnbull, Terry, Drogba, Kalou and some more youngsters based on the team choice of the game I would use a FULL youth side for the League Cup games, giving them a chance to shine.

I see Di Santo as someone who has 'good' feet but that is the noly factor to his play. Borini is a finisher and will take any chance that has been handed to him. Sturridge is that kind of player as well, why he didn't take that shot earlieri would never know but he was the far better striker in yesterday's game.

Wow, how can speculation grow due to him not being in the first friendly? Does that mean Lampard, Malouda, Drogba, Terry and co. will also be leaving? GOAL = The Goal being to be the most idiotic website for football ever

Sinclair, Van Aanholt, Chalobah showed very good promise. Cork wasn't the best game either. Bruma was solid. Chalobah is a brilliant talent for his age, and did superbly on his first ever start, and at 15, shows superb promise for the future. I hope he can continue his progress playing in a Chelsea shirt in the next couple of games (friendlies) as that it what they should be used for, allowing youngsters the chance and oppertunity to show that they have the skill and potential to be a defining factor to the team.

Sinclair, Van Aanholt, Chalobah, McEarhan, Bruma have all shown talent to me today, and i only watch the second half.

Tore! Yes!

ATTACK!

been quite quiet

sinclair to stay

Lalkovic corners are decent

that's the sinclair i love

Sinclair, Clifford, Lalkovic, Cork coming on c'mon Sinclair!

Brilliant play! More fucking like it!
