We are slowly rebuilding. Our squad needs refreshment. There are too many veterans, happy to run out their contracts. This season is mainly a transitional one. Next season our squad will be younger and alot more competive. For now chelsea is stuck with ageing players. This issue is being address as all of our signings this season have been young ones primarly for the future.

Great to see, and it would have gone even lower when Rio and Vidic went off

This is rubbish. I'd be interested to know how ours comes to 30 years old and 3 months or whatever when only 4 of our players were over that age.

Also doesn't take into account players like Luiz and Sturridge yet to return from injury, and prospects like Josh, Lukaku and Romeu (who granted won't be in our first team all the time, but still).
