Five players on their way out

[Wilson 358]

This is bullshit. Hope it's not true. Especially keep Drogba and Malouda for gods sake!

[bombayblue™ 55]

Who, what, why? Links?

[Zone 290]

Which five players? And do you have a source ?

Add a little more information when you make a thread, please.

[Gappy 130]

Rumor told that Drogba , Malouda , Obi Mikel , Bosingwa and zhirkov may be sell cause their high wage but poor perfomance

Hope They keep Mikel He's young and have chance to improve himself

highly doubt those players would get unloaded, maybe Bosingwa if he doesn't get his deal renewed.

[Wxgba 306]

I fail to believe that, for some reason. Drogba and Malouda who are two of our best players, Mikel who's turning in to a real gem (in my eyes) and Zhirkov and Bosingwa who are both effective and adequate squad players. Bullshit.

[Wilson 358]

Sorry forgot to include source.

Exactly. Hence why I'm worried

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Zhirkov and Bosingwa are replaceable.

Drogba's ageing and in my eyes past his real best form - I find it hard to believe he'll ever have another season like last year.

Malouda's at his peak and getting rid of him - like Mikel - is ridiculous, absolutely bollocks.

[Wilson 358]

I disagree BlueLion. Drogba still has a lot in him and is playing amazing football. Although a few more goals this season would be nice and I think he will he do it. He's a fighter!

I agree in all respects. Currently, I don't feel Bosingwa and Zhirkov are integral and indispensable members of the team, more so adequate squad players that could be replaced. However, unless suitable replacements are lined up, I see no need to sell them on just yet. Drogba, I too believe, will fail to replicate the form produced last season but will still be an important influence on the team for a season or two yet, even if that is playing second fiddle to Torres - whether or not Drogba will like that is another story, however. I think we all can dismiss the rumours of Mikel and Malouda's departure as bullshit, because they are very much the heart and back-bone of the current squad.

I'm glad to see the source is The Sun. A more reliable source and I may remain worried. Just now though, I'm dismissing it as journalistic drivel.

Come on guys.It's the sun we're talking about.

I thought you knew better by now then to believe that shit spouting paper!.

[J.F. 1,484]

Why Drogba and Mikel ?!

100% agree.

Cant take anything Murdochs rag says seriously.

At least five Sun journalists should be on their way out......

[Steve 10,227]

What a load of shit

[Krypt 241]

Come on guys.It's the sun we're talking about.

Totally agree the Sun make up stories to get sales , so i wouldnt worry about it too much. Though that being said i can see yuri going at the end of the season , and im unsure about Drogba i still think he has more to give but i feel we may have seen the last of him this season.

[Styles 9,790]

I'd be amazed if more than 2 players left.

I can somebody like Zhrkov leaving and being replaced. Who else? Possibly Ferreria?

But Malouda, Drogba and Mikel levaing? LOL This is wishful thinking from people who are scared of us.

[Wilson 358]

The Sun isn't that bad. I read it often. They usually do a good job backing up what they say with quotes and sometimes videos.

A Chelsea source confirmed: "There are a few big names and big earners whose performances have fallen short this season.

"If things don't improve there will be some notable casualties in the summer.

Wether that is true or bullshit, I don't know but is interesting. Gourlay?
