Styles 9,790 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 At the moment, we have Yuri Zhirkov competing for Malouda, which my view he should be winning because he is much younger of the two, and he packs so much speed into his runs down the left, we just haven't used at all because of how important Malouda seems to have been.As for the right side, Juan Mata should be the player to go for, assuming that he plays on the right, I might be mistaken for knowing that he plays on the left, but I have seen him play on the right before, and he is just as effective! Villas-Boas might prefer a 4-4-2 to a 4-3-3, we don't know that yet until we play our first pre-season match! Then after that, we will have a rough idea what his plans are!Zhirkov is no competition for anybody. He is exactly what is wrong with our squad. He is taking a space and contributing nothing in the grand scheme of things. I would LOVE to see him sold this summer. If Kalou and Zhirkov went I'll throw a party and everybody on the forum is invited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChelseaFanMKD 41 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 The point is that ABV said there wont be radical changes, so that scares me a little bit. We must get a winger at the worst case, and sell Kalou, imo he had his changes at chelsea..Eidt : now ontopic about Falcao, 25m is not that much for a striker he is.

termninja 5,290 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 I really really like Falcao, but we really don't need him Oh well, I hope Andre knows what he's doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just weren't good enough last season! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest justin_3d Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 I really really like Falcao, but we really don't need him Oh well, I hope Andre knows what he's doing.Why we don't need him?We perfectly need him giving the track record of baby torres getting injured a lot.Will leave us only with Sturridge, unless we also get Lukaku.But I expect Kalou and Anelka out of the equation.And you got to stop counting Drogba at his age. He is no longer contender for a long term project just one or two years.From that, it shows we need him!Under the circumstances that we sign Falcao, I wouldn't mind seeing Drogba go, as long as he doesn't go to Sp*rs.As for Anelka and Kalou, I wouldn't mind seeing them go whatever happens. They just weren't good enough last season!Almost the whole team was not good enough last season. So by that argument, we might as well sell the whole team???

milllz 43 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 if we do sign him he will be useless unless we get good wingers who can cross, if you see his goals most of them are from him getting on the end of crosses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomCFC 357 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 "I am leaving things up to my agent. I am very calm about the situation but I know there has been some movement. If Chelsea is interested in me then all that needs to happen is for negotiations to take place. My ambition is to keep working hard and I am convinced I can play in a superior league like England."http://www.skysports...7001441,00.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrismada9 1,948 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Almost the whole team was not good enough last season. So by that argument, we might as well sell the whole team???That's a silly accusation to make. When I said that, I didn't mean straight out "sell the whole team" ... what I meant, was that Kalou and Anelka need to be replaced because they weren't good enough last season. Boas however has said that every player in the squad will have a chance to prove themselves during pre-season before deciding who to bring in, and who will leave.

We have 3 or 4 (if you count Anelka) strikers atm and adding another one is not the wisest move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be my answer to that accusation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milllz 43 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Chelsea gives 5.7 million per yearRadamel Falcao is one step closer to signing for Chelsea, trying for a bond and a long-term annual return of 5.7 million euros. The Colombian striker (earning less than one million / year, the Dragon, and has a contract until 2013) gave yesterday, the "yes" to Andre Villas-Boas and Roman Abramovich, through the agent Jorge Mendes, after seeing reduced the chances to play at Real Madrid, who preferred to go to the Brazilian Neymar.In the coming days, the Russian tycoon, owner of Chelsea must pay the termination clause of Falcon, set at 30 million euros. The British press says that Abramovich is willing to do anything to satisfy the most urgent demands of the club coach, who confronted the Falcon with numbers and perks that FC Porto will not be able to cover.Specifically, the top scorer in European league (18 goals) is waiting for a contract for four or five times, allowing you to earn 5.7 million euros / year plus bonuses. You can earn 120 thousand euros per week, earning the same as Didier Drogba in the first year at Chelsea. Will earn less than the Spaniard Fernando Torres (200,000 euros), but twice by David Luiz (60,000), central ex-Benfica.The transfer to Chelsea is not surprising the Dragon, after the player has revealed a desire to play in the Premier League - have English classes for a year - and the successive attempts to postpone the renewal of FC Porto.Those responsible sportsmen were willing to stretch the string of Colombian wage, offering you the chance to renew until 2015 at a salary of 200 000 euros / month. Hawk not only renewed but also refused to rise to the termination clause of 50 million euros.The FC Porto striker Colombian already have another eye on: Teofilo Gutierrez, 26, Racing Club (Argentina). It takes nine goals in 13 games.translated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
