Ryan Bertrand

Where in that article did he say to Carlo to strictly use 4-3-3? All he's saying is we play better under that system and it's easier for the players to adapt. Your reading too much into it, if your going to find a reason to hate, find another.

The advice falls on deaf ears, mate.

[Tomo 21,733]

Do you have any idea how vital the Kalou's of this world are to a squad?

He is happy to sit on the bench most time and has done so for 5 years and can make an impact when come on. I dont care what any-one says Kalou's stats are actully quite good.

--------------------------------APPS (as sub)------Goals---Assists

2006/2007-----------------------25(33)--------------9-----------5

2007/2008-----------------------33(15)-------------11---------12

2008/2009-----------------------30(13)-------------10----------8

2009/2010-----------------------21(15)-------------12----------4

2010/2011(so far)-------------18(18)-------------10----------5

Stats dont lie, for a squad player they are pretty impressive, not to mention he seems to pop up with vital goals at vital times.

2006/2007

Equalizer at home to Spurs in the cup that gets us a replay, we go on to win the replay then the whole tournament.

Last minute winner against Watford that kept us in the title race.

2007/2008

Winner at Bolton which ended a worrying winless and scoring run.

The winner at christmas against Newcastle which kept us in touch with the top 2.

Although not a goal the pinpoint cross for Riise's OG, an away goal which helped us progress to Moscow.

2008/2009

A leveler against Man.Utd which saved our home run (all be it briefly).

2 goals and 2 assists when we thumped Boro 5-0 away and 2 crucial goals in the return fixture at home.

Gave us the lead against Cluj in the CL group game when it looked like we could have been going out.

Scored against Southend which spared us an embarrising home FA Cup exit, we won the replay and went on to win the FA Cup.

the only goal of the game against West Ham away.Cech saved Noble's penalty and helped us take 3 points.

2009/2010

Scored a priceless away goal in the San Siro.

Struggling against Cardiff in the FA Cup, he comes on game changes 4-1, we go on to win it.

Early brace against Stoke in the run in which settled unbearable nerves in the title run in (he went on to get a hat-trick).

3rd goal against Wigan which settled lingering doubts about where the title was heading.

So all in all he has scored some pretty vital goals for us and he is a valuable member of our squad and if he leaves every-one who bashed him will suddenly realise that, the fact that he has had 5 managers at Chelsea and none have sold him speaks volumes, as far as im concerned were lucky to have him.

[Shane 2,275]

God almighty Tomo, where were you for the Kalou arugments? So TX, He can say what he likes tbf, And its great that players are coming out in support of Torres instead of not passing to him (Malouda.)

[Madmax 9,219]

Make fun of him all you like, if there's one thing you can't fault about Kalou, it's his character.

Gave us the lead against Cluj in the CL group game when it looked like we could have been going out.

Scored against Southend which spared us an embarrising home FA Cup exit, we won the replay and went on to win the FA Cup.

I'd also like to add the only goal of the game against West Ham away. Cech saved Noble's penalty and helped us take 3 points.

added on mate

"You have to be together as a team," Kalou added. "We lose as a team, we win as a team. Today we showed character, we showed the real face of Chelsea."

He continued: "We are fighting for ourselves, for the team and also for the manager.

"It's very important to be professional on the pitch. I enjoy playing like that, for the club, for the fans who have travelled far to support us, it is very important to give them respect by playing very hard and giving everything we can."

Yea, Kalou is arrogant and selfish alright.

[BLionheart 516]

this time of each season is when i watch the likes of kalou , anelka and malouda coming back to life , now kalou is gonna work his ass off in training , get some games , score some goals and he is gonna end up in chelsea again next season wasting scoring opportunities , and playing like shit again .... till the end of next season .

Call me crazy , but i think we have players who only performs at the end of the season to avoid being sold , and sadly it works . Kalou a player which has been doing that year in year out .

Kalou , Malouda and anelka MUST leave , we need real play-makers and wingers .

Spot on.

[LDN Blue 7,903]

A great moment for him today! Hopefully this is the start of many more appearances, and perhaps even the odd start?

[termninja 5,290]

I hope to see him play more often. He and PVA have a lot of potential and they could be a long term replacements for Ash.

Nice assist today

[irishblue 128]

Yeah, it would be great to see him feature more often after today. He did very well replacing Ashley. That cross into Malouda was brilliant!

[chrismada9 1,948]

He was absolutely sublime today!! Hope we don't loan him out again, and he can use all what he has learned from his loan spells to practice!!

[LDN Blue 7,903]

Yeah! He's got 147 appearances to his name (according to Wiki). He's got enough experience now

[Madmax 9,219]

Assist on his 3rd touch. Put a couple of great crosses in apart from the one that led to the goal. Hopefully gets even more play time, Ash could do with a rest once in a while.

[middleoftheshed 388]

Really didnt expect to see him so was a nice surprise when his number went up.

[Waterfall 893]

Hope he can fill in for Ashley here and there. The man deserves some rest after playing every game for us.

[ack17 205]

i think PVA is better..
