Chelsea Fc Thread

Never mind the money, we will miss Luiz.

Nothing is forever.

[oldgit]

Bloody hell...he's moved onto Dolphins now

Satisfaction guaranteed by JT. Just look at the dolphins face.(Do dolphins have 'faces'? Where's David Attenborough when you need him).

[mjj]

Like Mata before him, I am gutted he is going, but both of them command big transfer fees for players that play relatively little. I suppose the question is, who do we buy?

Costa looks to be coming and other names mentioned are Pogba, Paulinho and Koke. Levy will squeeze Chelsea over Paulinho and I don't think he is that good. Fine player, but what is he adding?? Pogba and Koke are getting rave reviews, but I haven't seen enough to make a judgement.

Whoever we sign, I hope will see us change formation and be more ruthless...........

I read somewhere where Mou would like to bring Varane from Real Madrid.

Pogba is class....think Vieira but better, and can score goals as well. Hope he stays in Italy. Biggest balls up ever by the drunk, letting him go for sod all!

Yes he's a top class player. Any other manager would have been ridiculed over the whole business of Pogba

[StevieH]

pogba's meant to be a barcelona target this summer. assuming they're allowed to sign players that is.

Allowed, and already signing them.

[oldgit]

Lampard, Cole, Eto'o, Schwartzer and Hilario have all been released by the club, according to Fox Sport News.

[StevieH]

bit of a damp squib ending for lampard's time there that isn't it? thought he might get more of a send-off.

[wilai]

^ That one might not be over yet. Apparently he has been offered a contract extension but won't decide until after WC.

[Chicog]

Or he's waiting to see if QPR go up.

Mr Flipper may not be too happy though.

I think this a publicity stunt by JT.

One more year at Chelsea and he'll probably go to Miami Beckham United.

[P45Mustang]

Or he's waiting to see if QPR go up.

C'mon 'arry.

Back in the Prem mate.

[wilai]

He'll be stating he is not a specialist in failure next

Jose Mourinho in 2013: "Mata and Luiz are not leaving. We are not a selling club. We are not Arsenal."

[P45Mustang]

Yeah. That was last year. Nothing is forever.

[wilai]

[jellydog]

Nice one !

[wilai]

^Wish it was my own work....make the most of it fellas as I can't see the "Army" allowing it to stay for too long

[P45Mustang]

Simeone and Mourinho will rip Ancelotti apart.

2 minutes from losing his job.

What goes around comes around.

Thats a good shout. Play a season for his dodgy uncle, and i'd bet that would be one of Redknapps most interesting transfer deals.

[P45Mustang]

Well done 'arry. Nice to have you back in the Prem.

Gonna need to play much better football to survive though.

My daughter-in-law says QPR look like a pub team when we watched the play off final in my local.

Not far from the truth tbh.

Frank would help.

Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku scored a hat-trick as Belgium warmed up for the World Cup with a 5-1 win against neighbours Luxembourg in Genk.

Harry Redknapp could score a hat-trick against Luxembourg.

Nevertheless, Belgium are an impressive outfit.

And Lukaku is rented out by Chelsea,... so MamaSan Mourinho is probably going to laugh all the way to the bank or the EPL.

Or harping back to his mistake of loaning Kukaku out again that might just have cost Chelsea the league title?

Just reading between the lines!

Lukaku is obviously not the main man in Mourinho's view, otherwise he'd have kept him.

agreed but then again if you had kept him and played him you might have won the league rather than be let down by the strike force Mourinho chose. Its the alternative view....Demba Ba or Lukaku?

Yep. Nothing like an alternative view is there?

Chelsea with Ancelotti's mother-in-law instead of Mourinho would have won the EPL by a mile.

Very good with silverware apparently.

Don't tell Pellegrini though.

I think you would have won the league with Ancelotti, playing better football and with a manger who knows how to behave as an ambassador of his club and i very much doubt he would have begun the season with that striker line up.

Apologies if my opinion differs to yours but thats what i think. Ancelotti's haul of silverware also suggests i might be right.

Maybe.

There are different interpretations of Mourinho's claim that last season was a building process too.

But if Ancelotti had not won the CL, in what was effectively the last minute of normal time, Perez might well have been saying to Abramovich, you can have the geezer back at the Bridge.
