BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 (edited) You seriously think Sinclair is better than Malouda? Edited August 10, 2008 by BlueLion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kez 2,727 Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 He is nowhere close atm but in a few years he has the potential to be, Malouda is just adjusting the PL not all players can do it straight away give him time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Fair point, but look at Ballack now. Arguably the best CM in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badboy 1,526 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Fair point, but look at Ballack now. Arguably the best CM in the league. Ballack did not play too that level for the whole season though. Gerrard essien lampard are all better imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
True_Blue 469 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Fair point, but look at Ballack now. Arguably the best CM in the league. Better than Frank and Ess? He had a good run in the second half of the season,hardly best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon 18 Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 (edited) 8/17/08: Chelsea v Portsmouth Yes. It is that time again. Never do the minutes, hours, days and months seem to pass so slow than to those spent during the offseason for football fans. But mourn no longer, the Premiership is back and with that comes the return of all the anger, frustration, absolute elation and unbelievable highs that come with being a supporter. It also means for me that the time of letting this little blog gather dust and wilt away is over. The offseason for Chelsea can be summed up by one word — regroup. I say regroup because Chelsea has done nothing but make themselve vastly superior to last season. Most notably with the removal of Avram Grant and the appointment of Luiz Felipe Scolari. With Scolari comes an amazing résumé and the always promising aspect of more attractive football coming to Stamford Bridge. And while the transfer window might not have been as active as some might have thought, Chelsea have made moves: _______ Chelsea Transfers In: 01/07/08 Jose Bosingwa FC Porto £16.2m 30/06/08 Souza Deco Barca Undisc. Chelsea Transfers Out: 08/08/08 Anthony Grant Southend Free 20/07/08 Claude Makelele Paris St Germain Free 10/07/08 Steven Sidwell A Villa £5m 09/07/08 Slobodan Rajkovic FC Twente Loan 05/07/08 Ryan Bertrand Norwich Loan 01/07/08 Ben Sahar Portsmouth Loan 08/05/08 Harry Worley Leicester Free _______ I’d be lying to everyone is I was to say I was extremely familiar with José Bosingwa and what to expect from him, but I did see his performances in EURO 2008 and thought his selection to the UEFA Team of the Tournament was well deserved. And of course EVERY football fan is familiar with one Mr. Deco and while he hadn’t had the best season with Barca last season, I still rate him REALLY high and am really going to enjoy seeing him a Chelsea kit this season. No major losses for the club, losing Sidwell was a blessing of sorts and considering they received him on a free transfer last season — a £5m profit is wonderful. Maka leaving, while sad, I don’t see effecting the club to much. Mostly due to the fact that the midfield for Chelsea is absolutely loaded, and the best of the lot — Michael Essien — I fear is destined to be punished for his versatility and made to be play every which way instead of just letting the man do what he does best, dominate the game. But that was the offseason, THIS is the start of the new campaign. This is the elderly Chelsea trying to keep up with Fergie and his band of morons. And it all starts with Red faced Harry Redknapp and the current FA Cup trophy holder, Portsmouth. There isn’t much of a preview I can do for this thread simply because I’m honestly more interested than opinionated of what’s going to happen. My gut feeling tells me one thing; Chelsea is going to come out with a bang. If only due to the fact that I’m sure the boys will want to make themselves stand out to Big Phil, and playing time is not guaranteed. If I had to call out a scoreline it would be 2-0, with the scorers being up to your imagination. As for the season overall, I’ll go ahead and put this on record before one ball is kicked in anger: Chelsea will win the Premiership this season. And I don’t this it’ll be anywhere NEAR as close as it was last season. United have quality, but as of right now I just don’t know where the goals are going to come from. As great as he is, Ronaldo isn’t going to have another season like he did last year. Liverpool are.. well, Liverpool. Arsenal are always a wildcard for me but I think the loss of Hleb and Flamini will be much more difficult to deal with than many Gooners might like the believe. With all this said, the transfer window is still open for 18 more days and a lot can change in that time. But mark it down, Chelsea for the title. In Europe? I’m not jinxing myself, and I’m still not over last May so I’ll wait on that. Sunday, 17 August 2008. Of course I will not be at my home, I’ll be on my annual trip to Boston to see the Red Sox. But luckily I’ve found what appears to be a damn good pub to catch the game at. So I will be watching the boys come Sunday, bright and early — 8:30AM. Couldn’t be happier for the season to be back! And hope all of you have a great time watching the season unfold, Chelsea fan or not. But more so for all you that follow the Chels. Expect an update Monday with my thoughts on the match — C’Mon The Chels! Edited August 13, 2008 by Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
