Did we ever really replace them.......malouda does not possess the ability of a robben or duff!!
quite clearly we lack creativity and flair in midfield.... i hope villas boas takes notice of that!!
not seen this at chelsea since robben and duff http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CugvRHDqzWg ........ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7zmvgAsCiY

^^^^actually we did...though both played at different positions ...zola's creativity was replaced by robben and the biggest mistake was to let him go so easily we could have easily got about 50 m for him and replaced him a quality winger/attacking midfielder!!

No player currently at Chelsea has EVER replaced Franco Zola end of.

No we didn't properly replace the Robben and Duff axis.
Having said that Malouda was excellent in the Double winning season, just a shame he was so awful last season.
Also Duff hasn't exactly set the world alight since he left Chelsea and we were probably right to sell him.
Robben wanted to leave Chelsea to join Real Madrid so we didn't exactly have much choice but to sell him.

Duff was given away at the right time. He lost his pace and he looked average and has since he left. Robben was brilliant for you and he is one of the best wingers in the world. You've lacked natural width since those 2 left. Play zhirkov in his actual position? Has he played on the left of a front 3 for chelsea?

Possibly the worst statement ever in the history of both 606 and ja606.
Zola played in a different position and role to Cantona. In fact I think they would have complimented each other beautifully as a strike partnership.

Zola = a united destroyer and a pretty regular one at that

Duff should have stayed another season.
