so we have our new manager , we have robbie in as assistant things are lookign bright ...but are they
last summer we had a 27 million pound bid for neymar turned down and what is seemingly part of the corse now we have lost out on what could be a very exciting player.
neymar has chosen madrid over us and we have missed out. spurs wont sell modric to us porto will only sell to us at release clasuse fee 26 mil for falcao 30 odd mill for moutinho
we desperatly need a playmaker and a winger and signign the type of quality we need will be harder than its ever been. this is becasue of the mentality of our owner the sackign of carlo made us a bit of a joke and players will see this . Any world class player will go to either barca or madird its that simple.
we are TOO slow in the transfer market and i think it will cost us the right palyers to take us forward we need an injection of youth flair and excitement to get this club moving because with the current squad we are not going to win anything.
so this is my realistic view of how to re shape
transfers out
florent drogba ......... ( malouda and didier ) - these two players should be sold there attitude last season was pathetic the arival of fernando torres turned 2 20 + players into complete sulky spoiled brats they were both a joke for all drogba has done for us he has done cuz he was top dog the second he feels threatened instead of playing to keep his place he sulked , i fear this rubbed of on malouda and many others in the squad, we can get decent money for these 2 players and should cash in to pave the way for fresh younger more hungry players
mikel - its simple with essien and ramires in the team there is no place for him again being young he could fetch a good price and has not played well or fufilled his promise at all.
kalou - a player who is happy sitting on the bench is a player chelsea FC do not need he loses possesion constantly still young could get good money for him.
the way forward
keep anelka - maybe contraversial but nico has never once moaned about being played out wide but still scores a decent amount of goals hes an excelletn footballer and i feel is settled at chelsea if villas boas can get him running at defences again he will be a great asset next season.
DANNY STURRIDGE !!! - please god give this raw exciting player the chance to prove his worth in a chelsea shirt hes proved he can do it for bolton imagine what he could do with the quality that chelsea has around him for me is the best young english striker and most exciting we have had since owen came on the scene if were nto stupid we could actually see a return from a young english player since john terry.
KAKUTA !! ok maybe was a bit over hyped but in the small amount of games s seen of this lad hes looked the part he needs games get his confidence up and i belive is as good as someone like neymar this coudl be like a new signign for us
Mcechran - englands answer to iniesta untoled talent if we keep him this season and give him a chance and by this i mean when he single handedly turned the carlign cup game against newcastle on his own then we should be playing him the VERY NEXT GAME , this guy wll unlock defences and be devastating i dotn care how young he is he needs to be playing for us and only us next season.
Sign sergio Aguero - why are we not in for him seriously if we can bid 40 mil for neymar why nit a proven international footballler why would we let him go to juventus who are far less superior than us for god sake sturridge torres and aguero up front is mouth watering this is a must please
realistically we not goign to meet palermos 50 mil price tag for pastore , so lets go get diego from wolfsburg hes 26 very simialr to modric and moutinho and a 15 20 million pound bd for this fella will be enough
GANSO - seems to have gone under the radar cuz of neymar but this lad is just as good
contreroao - not seen alot of him but seems to be hyped
any ways relaistically thats what we should be doing
cech
ivanovic luiz terry cole
ramires mcechran/diego essien
aguero torres sturridge
where do we start

What price AVB doing little in the transfer market, & promoting a couple of the youngsters
He may just like what he sees pre season & get the best out of one or two of our big names & slot in the next generation
Whatever he does - he'll have to accommodate Torres - Roman aint losing face on that deal.
Strangely - we have not had one solid request to speak to any of our players really
Lots of gossip (the Drogs to Galatasaray thing) but nothing concrete

After last season can you blame the lack of interest on our squad?
posted on 30/6/11
As long as we don't end up swapping Drogs for Modric eh...

It'll never happen.
.....I hope.

Two names that will hamper and really good season
Terry and Lampard

Dear, oh dear, oh dear. Oh dear
How was Drogs attitude pathetic? He was being forced to play second fiddle to a £50 million flop. If anything he improved after Nando's arrival. He remains our most dangerous attacking threat. Keep. In fact I'd actually be looking to give him a contract extension
Nelks can go, it's not his attitude that concerns me but rather his play, which was shocking for most of last season. Looked hopelessly off sorts at times
Flo can still offer us something imo, experience can be vital and he did create plenty of chances last season. Chipped in with some imprtant goals as well
Zhirkov can go, career wrecked by injury. Soon as he picks up a decent run of form he gets injured. Cut our losses and sell back to Russia
Bos to go as well, Van der Wiel has 1 year left on his Ajax contract so snap him up as a replacement
Reports are we've missed out on Neymar to Real. Not believing anything til it's confirmed but if this is the case we need to look elsewhere. If Aguero does get his release clause reduced then maybe. Hazard would be a good option too
IMO would suit us perfectly but Spurs are proving unusually persistent, ditto Porto with Moutinho. If necessary we should bite the bullet and pay some absurd fee, if we are to go with AVB's preferred 4-3-3 we need a more deep lying playmaker than Pastore or Sneijder

Diego?!?!?! are you having a laugh?
the guy has declined more rapidly that Cheryl Cole's career. just wikipedia him to get an idea of how much of a trouble maker he is. and you;re worried about some of our players attitudes!!
15-20m? Wolfsburg have already said he can go for 6m and nobody wants him.
Drogba was single handedly tried to keep the team going last season. the highest combined goals and assists in the premier league hardly says sulking. the most assists in our team by a huge distance also doesn't say he was being selfish
I completely disagree with most of what you're saying.
