Michael Ballack

[Muzchap 8,966]

Pay per play deal...

Works fo other clubs....

Why not us?

In fact I think that should be the de-facto standard for all players - sure a decent retainer as well, but only paid big bucks if playing - also link it to performance, like every other human working on the planet!

[zolayes 14,489]

Perhaps I'm overall being harsh but I will always remember him as the guy who ducked instead of trying to stop Iniesta's shot

I remember him as the guy who sorted out Didier when Drogs childishness could have cost us .

[capriccioso 2,545]

Ballack? Ballack!? BALLACK!? FUCKING SIGN HIM UP! TELL MOSES TO GIVE BALLACK THE NUMBER 13 SO I CAN BUY IT

He is a born leader on level with John Terry and not many can claim that.

We've had quite a few with a sheer force of personality like that. Drogba for instance is more of a man mountain than either Terry or Ballack. It takes quite something to captain a football team, but it pales in comparison to turning up to the Ivory Coast and basically saying "Stop fighting each other, or I'll be cross" to stop a civil war.

I'd be happy to see him here of course but it seems weird to get someone at that age like we've not planned for Essien and Meireles to go. A few months would be good tbh. I suppose as a free agent, nothing could go wrong.

[Pacquiao 1,834]

think so

Imagine what a fairytale it would be for him to return and win the title that has evaded him for all his career

wow that would be amazing! imagine getting to a penalty shoot out in the CL final again but this time Ballack steps up to take the last penalty and smashes it in to retain our CL trophy!

Not going to happen

[Pacquiao 1,834]

age is not an issue Ballack showed last season that he has still got it, just like that ginger fella at united.

[Tricky 301]

I was glad to be shot off him, our midfield was slow as fuck with him Mikel and Lampard. We need more mobile players, wouldn't want him back.

Weird, I remember him as the guy who chased Ovrebo on the pitch pushing him around when he refused to give us a blatant penalty.

Well that's my second memory of the guy

[BlueLyon 9,359]

I actualy like that moment now, we won CL afterall and in 2009, ballack was still here

Great player, we dont lose anything realy if we sign him for a year. Im sure he can teach Marin, Hazard,...some classy football.

After Dr

[Tomo 21,751]

Usually i am against these type of moves, but right now i think this would be a fantastic idea.

He is one of those few players that inspires you through his presence alone and he can play defensive midfield, it was no coincidence we went mad on the goals in 2010 when he played there.

One year deal, what can go wrong? and maybe just maybe he can win the trophy that has eluded him all his career, while helping us making history by being the first side in donkey's years to retain it

one of my memories of Ballack is in the dressing room after the F.A Cup final in 2010 where Ballack was taking the piss out of Kalou for his open goal miss!

Any Video/Picture of this?

Pay per play deal, or a player-coach role for the rest of the season for an one year extension if need be.
