TomCFC 357 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Hilario has signed a one-year extension to his current Chelsea contract.The 35-year-old goalkeeper's contract would have run out this summer but he will now spend a sixth season at Stamford Bridge, having so far made 33 starts and four substitute appearances in his role as one of the keepers supporting Petr Cech.Last season Hilario played one game, the Community Shield match against Manchester United at Wembley. In March 2010 he made his one appearance for the Portugal national side.http://www.chelseafc...2375452,00.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve 10,227 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 I think this is a good thing. He is not worried about helping out the team when needed. He helps the lads warm up before the games even when he is not on the bench. He is also a top lad and always takes his time out to take photos with the fans.

Spike 12,049 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Ol' Hilario will retire at Chelsea and end up having some sort of job coaching the Keepers of the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DYC. 7,542 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Hmm let's hope Petr doesn't get injured then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostas 1,468 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 I guess the club decided to delay the goalkeeper decision. Delac's disastrous loan and not having a manager with a clear picture of our goalies might have something to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YuriZhirkov 106 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Who is best? Turnbull or Hilario? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionsden 4,689 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 I don't see anyhting wrong with the new deal. Hilario has been a magnificent back up goalie for us over the years and has stood up to the task against teams like barcelojna, man utd, liverpool et al. a true professional and no complaints here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheva. 5,373 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Cool, he is far better than Turnbull imo. Why the feck did we even sign that guy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheva. 5,373 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 For the most part Lionsden, he is better than Almunia and Kuzcack. Not better than Given though lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 This is a pointless contract extension. I've always said Sam Walker would make an idea backup while still playing reserve football when he doesn't need to be feature. We've got an abundance of goal keeping talent in our ranks. Hilario is not one of them.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
