Honestly would had prefer for him to stay.

I mean his set piece is the best honestly... he can also fill in at LB.

Now I guess Betrand or PVA will stay to provide cover?

[Guest justin_3d]

Good player. Wish him the best at his new club!

Anzhi fans are happy. But some fans call him judas, some tell, he come for money

Oh thanks, yeah on that youtube video i translated what some people said and they were calling him Judas, haha. I hope he does well for them though.

[MetsajCFC 1,255]

media reports claim Anzhi have paid Chelsea £13.2 million

I thought we were pushing for more?

Clearly those reports were bullshit, still a nice bit of business though.

[- 25 - 167]

£13.2m? About a £5m loss then. Not bad considering he's hardly played.

[ChelseaChick 430]

Ah its a pity but I'll get over it! hope he does really well at this club because he actually is a good player he just didn't really get a chance with Chelsea.

[Rkk 17]

hope he do well, chelsea lost a good player. Why is him being sold not players that are over the age of 30. disappointing with it.

[ZanSnake 1,211]

Too bad injuries ruined his chances here. He showed, at times, some slick skills but the injuries did over-shadow that, and he did never seem to be fully into the games when he did play. 13 million isn't a bad price though, and i hope we can use that in signing his replacemnt on the wing, on someone like Mata.

Good Luck Zhirkov! :blue scalf:

[Madmax 9,219]

Held much promise, shame it never quite came to fruition. Thanks and good luck Yuri.

Finally confirmed by the club!

[Rubber bullets 1,183]

It should have been Malouda that was sold.
