Apparently his agent said so.

The quotes are taken out of context from the original article (which doesn't seem to reliable itself, tbh). It basically says that he won't know for sure if he will get loaned out or stay with the squad until the last week of August. I could have told you that!

Really really hope he gets some time in some PL games, in addititon to FA cup games and capital one cup games. Future chelsea star in the making with MVG

[quickpassnmove 924]

loan is a stupid idea. Should be working him into the lineup instead of Mikel IMO.

But, forget for a moment that we have MvG and consider that Chelsea didn't make a move for Kevin Strootman last summer. that was a mistake IMO.

[Vybz Kartel 1,613]

I guess so, but that would leave us thin in central midfield. Last season in addition to Frank, Ramires, Mikel and Matic we also had Luiz who played a lot of games in that position.

Honestly the more I think about it, it was such a silly idea re-signing Drogba. If Mourinho wanted Drogba back then it should have been conditional to Torres leaving. Can't have two non-homegrown players taking up two foreign spots when they're not good enough to be in the squad. If the club aren't prepared to cut their loses with Torres, fair enough but now they've complicated things by adding Drogba because we're having to scrounge around looking for players (that are actually needed) to offload in order to compensate for his inclusion. Just silly.

This is the most logical post I have see in a while lol

confirmed as #16... although it means nothing about his possible loan, but we could add his number to the thread name anyway.

[BenIsLegend 475]

Fear if we can't offload anyone, loaning him will be our way of reducing our foreign players.

Why not loan Torres and pay the salary this season, it's not like he's going to contribute much anyway. I can't stomach another youtube compilation of Torres misses this season.

two more years of Mikel passing back and Torres passing water

[termninja 5,290]

I want to see this lad starting Cup games and some CL ones. He has great potential and could turn out to be a great midfielder.

[Barbara 15,149]

I think short term that injury will cost him a lot.

Last year we were somewhat thin in his position and he would have been much more used back then than he can be used now. It's really unfortunate for him to have gotten injured at that time. Now he's third choice for his best position (#6 imo) and if there's one player - saved injuries - that will play all our matches in EPL and UCL is Matic. I think he's one of the first names in Mourinho's sheet which means Marco's chances of playing are very limited.

Had he not gotten injured, he would have grown a lot last season already, with significant play time, and he could be in a much better position now (still behind Matic though).

Van Ginkel possibly leaves on loan.

Van Ginkel possibly leaves on loan.

I think he has to. With us playing 4-3-3 and Oscar and possibly even Willian being considered as CMs, he won't get many minutes on the pitch.

[King11Didier 916]

A PL loan will be the best solution for the boy.

So khedira is coming ?

Looks like salah and cech are also going...

Out: Cech, salah. Van ginkel

in : di maria . Khedira

Doubt we'll sign another CM/AM. We have enough. MVG will free a non-HG spot if Cech leaves too. If we sign anyone, it should be a striker or a CB.

Would make us too strong for anyone.

Called it.

[Madmax 9,219]

Called it.

Not necessary. If we don't make another (non HG) signing and if Cech doesn't leave, we'll likely just not register Schwarzer.
