If we do not qualify for the champions league next season i think we should try and do this in the summer:
Sell or release these players
Hilario free
Bosingwa free
Cole £10-12 million
Essien £8-10 million
Meireles £12 million
Malouda £4-6 million
Sturridge £18-20 million
Drogba free
Kalou free
I would then go and try to sign these players to replace them
Hennessy if Wolves do happen to go down he should be available at about £3-6 million.
Kolarov and Adam Johnson i think we should offer both Cole and Sturridge to Man City in exchange for both Kolarov and Adam Johnson.
I think we should then try and get 1 more wingersomeone like Willian or someone similar to him.
I then think we should pick a starting X1 for the PL and a different 1 for the Europa league, my PL X1 would be:
Cech
Ivanovich, Luiz, Terry, Kolarov
Romeu, Mikel
Willian, Mata, Johnson
Torres
A lot of our fans keep saying that we need a deep lying playmaker i honestly think that is Mikel's best position and we wouldn't have to go out and spend £30-60 million. We could give Romeu and Mikel an extended run in the team together to see how it would work out.
My Europa League X1 would be:
Hennessy
Ferreira, Cahill, Hutchinson, Bertrand
Ramires, Lampard, McEachran
De Bruyne, Lukaku, Piazon
I understand that Lampard wouldn't be very happy basically playing in the 2nd team but if the new manager comes in and says to him you are an integral part of my team and i want to prolong your career with us for the next 4 or 5 years, but that means you won't be able to play week in week out, so i want you to captain the team in the Europa League to appease him a bit. With this team we could also give invaluable experience to Hutchinson, Bertrand, McEachran, Piazon, Lukaku and De Bruyne which is something we really need over the next few years. What do my fellow Blues fans think of this idea?

Hilario is not going anywhere,he just recently signed a one year extension

Kolarov and Johnson are a big no-no for me. I like the idea of replenishing the left side though.
I'd go for:
Alba
Munian
I think Willian is better off on the left as well. Maybe try someone else. I'm not sure who though, Jovetic maybe?

Sturridge definitely shouldn't be sold

Johnson isn't that good, Kolarovs rubbish bar his free kicks, and Piazon isn't ready
posted on 10/4/12
seriously dude, almost all of those player still have something to offer, and most of your suggested replacements are no better than the players we already have.

Hopefully next season it'll be something like this:
1st XI:
Cech
Ivan Luiz Terry/Cahill Bertrand
Romeu Sahin
Sturridge Mata Hazard
NewCF
2ndXI:
Turnbull
Clyne Hutchinson Cahill/Terry Cole
Ramires Mikel McEachran
Kakuta Torres DeBruyne

How has Meireles' value gone up?

Must be the hair and the stunning tramp-ish look

Maybe he's had 2 million pounds worth of tattoos done since joining Chelsea.

Im glad your not in charge of our club, Infact I wouldn't be surprised if you are! You want the wolves keeper? Hmm yea he's good but I think we've got bigger problems in midfield and attack an they need updating first!
