That would have been difficult seeing that he was in Jamaica

"I had great memories from Chelsea, winning the league and the cups," said Malouda.

"The past year has been difficult for me, but to be honest the positive has been much better than the negative. I enjoyed good times at Chelsea with some great people at the club."

Classy.

Classy.

If the quotes are true , then i have huge respect for the guy. I hope he re establishes his career! May be should have left last year or may be we could have played him and not shunned him with the U-21s. Nevertheless he goes with his head held high with this statement. Well Done, Florent!

Yeah I bet earning an absolute fortune each week to do nothing has been better than the "negatives"...What are they by the way?

THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES

It’s been a real pleasure and an honor to wear the blue shirt for 5 years.

Coming from Lyon after four successful years with as many champion titles, it was a real challenge to sign for CHELSEA F.C. with the ambition to succeed in the best league in the world: the English Premier League.

One of the main reason why I decided to sign for this club was to win the European CHAMPIONS LEAGUE and I couldn’t imagine a better scenario than winning the best club trophy in the world for my last CHELSEA game.

Over the five years I’ve defended the club’s colors, I’ve really enjoyed the great moments I lived amongst players and technical staff with the aim to deserve the daily support from our loyal fans, and I always tried to make them proud.

Every good thing must come to an end, and even if I had to wait for a whole season at the club’s academy, I’m very proud of all my achievements as a Chelsea player.

I’m free now to carry on my career, so I wish all the best to all my blue friends; I’ll always support CHELSEA F.C…

Thanks for the memories Florent and for that amazing 09-10 season. You turned a bit greedish/cuntish towards the end, but best of luck where ever you go.

That's a very classy way to go out and though it's easy to give him stick for what happened at the end (both in terms of performance and ultimately an unwillingness to leave and maybe play football for a living), footballers are people too and they do have the same concerns when it comes to money and providing for their families both now and in the future.

Personally I think he could still do a job in the right environment and I'll try and focus on that period when he was nigh-on unplayable.

Could only find a short video of his best season at Chelsea.

Best of luck to Malouda wherever he ends up...heard that Marseille were interested.

Always loved the guy. Remember him scoring an awesome goal on debut (put his body on the line). I'll still wear my MALOUDA 15 shirt with pride. Au Revoir Florent, thanks for the memories..
