Nothing says "MINT!" like shiny, beveled gold print in a newspaper. Really makes you feel upscale while ducking out of the rain over your fish & chips...

IMO this decision should be made ASAP before the other teams gain more of an advantage in the transfer market.

Not sure what appointment of a manager has to do with buying players at Chelsea. Manager at Chelsea doesnt pin point the player he wants. Its the Director of Football and Guss Hiddink as a consultant who do it. Now we all know Guss is joining us and its quite obvious he (our TO BE Manager) has been consulted over the transfers like in past.

Just so that you know, Bosingwa was bought before Scolari was appointed.

Dear Sir.

We thank you for your enquiry regarding the position of manager of Chelsea Football Club.

However, I would just like to point out that since the departure of Mr Ancellotti we have had a long period of stability and continuity.

Yours sincerely

Guus Hiddink could move a step closer to becoming Chelsea manager on Tuesday when the president of the Turkish Football Federation announces whether he will stand for re-election.Mahmut Ozgener will hold a press conference after returning from a week's holiday and what he says is likely to have an impact on the Blues' hopes of securing Hiddink's services in the near future. Ozgener reportedly lacks enough support to secure another term in office and he could therefore elect to jump before he is pushed.

He has been a staunch ally of national team boss Hiddink, whose refusal to fully commit his future to Turkey has caused concern at the TFF. Even Ozgener himself suggested last week he had been misled by the Dutchman, threatening to report Chelsea to FIFA if they persuaded Hiddink to break his contract.

Feelings are likely to run deeper than that among Ozgener's opponents and any new president may decide to cut his losses on Hiddink, whose reported £4million-a-year contract expires next summer. There are claims he is paid even more than this and that the TFF are holding out for the maximum possible compensation from Chelsea.

Hiddik will be the next manager, but this business with TFF is getting boring.

I hope they resolve all this political matters and make the official statement as soon as possible.

Hiddink saying he is not in contact with Chelsea or TFF's claims in a moment that they very close from a presidential election is just politics.

If you believe in all those claims, you must be silly.

Chelsea plan new signings

14-06-2011

Premier League side Chelsea have plans to sign "two to three" new players to strengthen their side, after last season's unsuccessful campaign that resulted in the sacking of manager Carlo Ancelotti.The club's chief executive, Ron Gourlay, who's visiting Hong Kong, said the process of selecting a new manager was "going well", and could be completed within the next two weeks.

Mr Gourlay added that star players such as Fernando Torres and Michael Essien will be "the first to board the plane" for the Asia Trophy tournament in Hong Kong next month.
