Gourlay: Manager hunt nearing end

and a little quote.

"We will announce things in the usual way but hopefully in the next week or two, we'll be in a position to announce who our new coach will be."

We need minimum 3.... but i thought we will buy around 5 new players, and sell minimum 3... interesting.

another two weeks preseason training must be starting soon ...2 or 3 players in ...will that include any being left out on loan ...but

the really good news is that ticket sales for the games in asia are going well. guess that was the reason for the statement

[Guest justin_3d]

"As far as players are concerned, the basis of the team will be the same for next season," he added. "There may be an introduction of two or three players. We've identified key players that we'd like to bring to the team, players who can strengthen the team but of course we'll probably have to wait until the new coach is in place."

Same team for next season with only 2 or 3 players coming in.....I think Lukaku is one of them, and maybe Kevin De Bruyne, leaving us with 2 players coming in....

Do i see us getting a new RB, Winger, and Creative midfield? Looks very hard right now, if we only getting 2 or 3 after the new manager comes in.

And most likely the coach is going to be someone we expect, like Guus. If not Guus i would love it to be Marcelo Bielsa!

[Rubber bullets 1,183]

I don't want the same squad with only a few additions. I want a complete change which sees old and/or creaky players like Malouda, Drogba, Anelka, Bosingwa and Essien out and a completly refreshed and vitalised squad with new singnings and some academy players promoted to the first team (Josh, Bertand/Aanholt). Otherwise we will be left behind due to the likes of Drogba and Malouda dragging us down.

[Tomo 21,751]

Im glad i have limited internet access because this is utter torture.

We need more than 3 players in but it wont happen, infact it wont surprise me if we give Malouda and Anelka new 5 year contracts

[Madmax 9,219]

Two wingers and a CAM; that's what I hope for anyway.

[Tomo 21,751]

Day 1 lineup?

GK Cech

RB Ivanovic

CB Alex

CB Terry

LB Cole

CM Essien

CM Lampard

CM Gatuso

ST Anelka

ST Drogba

ST Malouda

SUBS

Hilario

Luiz

Ferreira

Ramires

Beckham

Kalou

Torres

Nothing in terms of Chelsea can surprise me any more.

Whoever comes in now, I hope its someone who knows the players to an extent...it will be irritating to see our players, especially the youngsters, having to prove themselves all over again...

If its Hiddink he will just use Essien, Drogba, Lampard and Malouda for the whole season no matter what.

Hiddink played younger players at PSV and played Mancienne a fair few times in his last stint.

What's in the news to be cheerful about. The same base of old tired uncreative legs with just 3 new additions. is this how we aim to end the transitional period and build for the future.

Yep that's what I expect as well next season. that "the same base" statement from Gourlay clearly hinted at that.somethings never change

raymondverheije raymond verheijen Can't wait to work with Premier League club again to repeat the 'work-rate' & 'injury' statistics we had at Manchester City with Mark Hughes.

Because 3 players in is all i ever asked for.

They have been a creative mid, winger, and RB.

Some don't agree with a RB here so another striker is good for them, in the type of Lukaku.

A winger i guess Kevin de Bryune might be it....but i am not sure if that counts cause he will be loan. We still need a winger.

And one more would be a creative midfield, unless we are going to rely on Yossi, and give time to Josh.

[dodojojo 510]

Lame.

Even Real Madrid got it and they're a circus of long renown. Are they going into next season with Raul and Guti in the starting lineup? In the squad?
