Tomo 21,751 Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Kalou has had 7 managers in his time at Chelsea, 6 saw him as a vital member of the squad and the one that didn't is widely regarded by lots as Chelsea's worst manager in a long time.But ofcourse we know better. Not saying he is world class, he is not but if he is as bad as most people claim he is, then Jose, Hiddink and Carlo should be getting just as much stick for signing him (Jose), playing him often (Hiddink) and keeping him (Carlo).

Filled a squad position for a few seasons. Now that we've brought in Hazard, Marin & possibly Hulk...there was no reason to keep Kalou.Best of luck to Kalou wherever he ends up.

Tricky 301 Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 But does it make sense keeping Malouda but letting go Kalou, if one was going to stay out of the 2 it should have been Kalou.His contract expired, if Malouda isn't sold he won't be given another contract next year. Sure the club won't rid but he intends to see it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capriccioso 2,545 Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Schalke would be ideal. Not English, and they're a good team. Also they play in blue so I can pretend he's still playing for Chelsea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jype 6,398 Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Once again he's scored for the Ivory Coast. He's on fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenIsLegend 475 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I hope he goes to Schalke He would get CL football there and also he wouldn't become a rival since we could only meet him in the CL. Good luck to him in the future and thanks for everything he has done for us <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Exactly, he was never a good finisher. Very poor at that, among many other things... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capriccioso 2,545 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 He could have been a good player if everything clicked for him at the same time. Too often he was in his best form in one category at the same time that he was at at his worst in another.Re: the finishing, Torres has consistently worse than that yet many want a new team to be built around him. Enough with the hypocrisy around Torres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enough with the hypocrisy around Torres.Maybe its because people know what Torres is capable of. And even when he misses he still creates chances for others. Kalou has had so many opportunities to shine at Chelsea. Rare occasions he has look half decent, rest of the time he has been dog shit.

capriccioso 2,545 Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 What he's capable of also include open goal misses.It's the price tag and the reputation of the guy. That's all it is. If we signed Kalou for 50 million from Liverpool we'd probably be getting "oh, he had a good game today, couple of nice touches, good shot, unlucky he didn't score, come on lads lets sign 10 other players to bring the best out fo him".
