Rubber bullets

I think Deco asked for the number and he gadly agreed.

I never understood this, we are happy to let Lukaku stagnate in the reserves but seem determined to mkae this guy go on loan. He is something we need, forget about the loan move for fucks sake!

I think he will go for 13/14. Unless AVB gives him permission to have the number 5, since technically Essien is not part of the dquad yet so the No. 5 is vacant.

The thing that comes to my mind with Stoch was a lack of patience on his department. Demanded that he started most games, and took the easy way out when his grant was not going to be given. But hedonism rarely works and now look at him. Wasting his career on the bench at Fenerbahce. Had great potential but in my mind its his own fault wanting everything now.

But I could!!! Muahahahahahaha!

Finally

I love it that this thread is 3 pages long and not once has a news report linked us yet.

Can't you two be friends? GROUP HUG EVERYBODY!!!

How reliable is the source? I have yet to see any news reports about this.

According to reports, Gary Cahill is in London and is expected to have his medical in the morning after agreeing terms. #CFC #Chelsea https://twitter.com/#!/ChelseaActivity/status/156114368784896000

I missed the match, celebrating my Grandad's birthday. Who was the best player and who was the worst?

With Torres and Mata having a haircut together with Terry (if they did go together) I have this disturbing thought that Terry made them have this style below.

Put Torres in the No.10 role. Seems to be a better passer then most of our midfiielders

Since it was mutual agreemant, does that mean we do not pay compensation.

The fact that the Daily Mail readers are aughing about this story in the comment says it all.

Whats the point, we tried to get a work permit about a billion times. Don't see how another one would be any good.

I don't think so. There was a lot of optimism with his signing and lot of people on Chelsea forums agreed that big changes had to happen. If there was anyone who would be angry if he did make big changes were the ones who had to much sentiment to the status quo.

I agree with Henrique in that if there is one thing I will give him grief for was his stupid policy of "evolution" and not "revolution" in the summer. Yet a lot of the players he has relied on have let him down badly (just like with Carlo). Should of told some of the 30+ plus players to go, and if there was going to be temper tantrums then he should of given them a slap in the face and told them to piss off. I'm sorry but with the amount of player power in this team, something harsh has to be done.

We should really stop with the whole concept of loaning him back. I believe that was the reason a deal collapsed in the summer.

Becuase of the fair play rules?

Maybe I'm looking too much into this, but was I the only one feeling a bit uncomortable with his post match coments about hi playing time and backing AVB. I'm not saying he should ggo on about how AVB is a god and that he worships him with out question but he seems tto be a bit miffed with AVB about his playing time aand spells on the bench. He dn't say something like he understands why AVB keeps dropping him or how he respects his decision as the manager. Maybe itsme but it sounded like (with the words he used) that he is still a bit upset of not being a guaranteed starter.

Why, what did his source claim?

Don't worry, I'm pretty sure he will start against Pompey, even if he takes the FA Cup more seriously it will be a great chance for Lukaku to get his bearings on English football with this type of team. If he does not start I will eat my hand.

Maybe we should convert Torres to a No. 10 role? He seems to be the one making the killer passes then what we wanted other people to do for him?

I thought we actually tried to do something, just better passing and we should be fine.
