Yuri Zhirkov

[NoFear 23]

So finally its official !! Ancelotti has said it in his first Press Conference that Zhirkov's on his way. Confirmed in BBC as well

Yippee !! Here's hoping him to be a fan's favourite soon !!

This is what Zhirkov would look like in a Chelsea shirt

did this myself

[Wxgba 306]

At least Ancelotti's looking to sign new people, and bring in new faces to the club. I think Zhirkov will turn out to be a good signing for us to be honest, provided he gets time on the pitch to show us what he's capable of doing.

The player is in London today and will join Chelsea subject to a medical and agreement of personal terms.

How did Zhirkov get black hands

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Its the transition from Russia to England, the temperature difference is astounding

[chrismada9 1,948]

Maybe because Zhirkov is always in Russia, and has no clue what hot weather actually is

great signing, can't wait to watch him play. He will probably have thenumber 18 shirt.

[millzy_chelsea_fan 4]

people say that this is Chelsea's signing not ancelotti's. but ancelotti wanted him at milan but they did'nt want him until Chelsea wanted him.

[Rambo 1,729]

Awesome signing, can't wait for him to get on the pitch.

[Term-X 7,891]

so he's a malouda replacement

because lets face it even though he can play everywhere on the left, his prime position is left midfield.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Not necessarilly. Robben, Duff and Joe Cole could play on either wing; I expect the same of someone who costs £18 million.

Duff on the right wing was fine because he was so fast yuri does not have that pace.

Are you sure? Zhirkov looks to have decent pace to me......
