Harry Harris is somewhat a dodgy & unreliable writer on Soccernet but I hope he is right on this one!

I wouldn't want the Barca style even if we had the players. pass pass pass pass pass pass pass shoot miss pass pass pass pass pass

Agreed, it's the same with Arsenal. It's maybe aesthetically pleasing on the eye to the neutral but I prefer more substance.

You can play attacking football with a more direct, penetrative style. A little like we were playing in Mourinho's first season. That is the football I would rather play because it is so effective.

why take risk on barca swag?

like everyone said, we need to play the chelsea way! whats wrong with counter attack of hulk and hazard and mata? Do you know defenders will shit themselfs seeing us use those tactics?

you clearly have not played me in fifa 12.... i use 5 5 0 with drogba the high attacker...

on topic. we'll never succeed with barca style. im telling you.

Don't think we're going to try to play 'Barca style' it's not the only form of attacking football there is.

Agreed...Plus, it doesn't work as well in England. In the Premiership, you need to have more power, size, and physicality than in Spain.

if people so desperately wanna see "barca play", why dont they start supporting barca, we are chelsea, we play our own way and WE ARE EUROPEAN CHAMPIONS.

so fuck pep, rdm should be our next coach.

What about a new manager? we will announce it after we will sign all the players? So who (manager) gave his permission to sign this players?

[Laylabelle 9,534]

I think its turned into one of those 'heres the players..make them play in a way that work' cases.Might be wrong...not bad signings but at the same time...no manager...not their decison and this has gone wrong before..

Isn't RDM still caretaker manager officially until 30th June?

[Japep 16]

Yes, and it could be wrong, too... The manager should buy players, not the board.

[Japep 16]

Isn't RDM still caretaker manager officially until 30th June?

Yes (as far as i know), but if he doesn't be here next season, he just buys players for the new manager. And next, the new manager can't make transfers, because he doesn't get money for it. I think.

i'm not so sure the manager "gives permission". i think the manager's opinion is irrelevant in chelsea's case.
