Worst part is, this completely and utterly pointless game will be the last time Frank Lampard puts on a Chelsea shirt

Everyone sounds mad as hell but I couldn't be any happier. I'll be at the game, only 2 hour drive for me can't wait. Happiest I've been in a while.

I don't understand as well. It's like a vacation for them to the US.

It's not like their going to be training or planning hard for the game. Also, its a good opportunity to see the billion loanees Chelsea has...

Don't quite get the hysterics in this thread. America is a growing market for football and one more match really isn't anything to get excited about.

America might be the growing market...?

I thought football games have been going on in America for years. After all, in America football is not well followed as anticipated.

Perhaps, Chelsea may play a game of baseball & plenty of people will attend ?

What´s so important about this marketing ?

The players will be fed up, tired of playing so many games. Why not give them 2-3 weeks of well deserved rest ?

Where and when is Chelsea going on tour this summer?

Where and when is Chelsea going on tour this summer?

Asia. Matches will be played in July.

Perhaps, Asian market makes more sense. New places to visit, new fans..., who in turn may purchase Chelsea items later on.
