In : Daniel Alves (Fc sevila)

OUT : SWP , Ferreira ,
Buying Goaly is a big mistake.

IN: v.kompany,M.richards, a striker

OUT:SWP,p.ferraira

And these r neither the players i want at CFC nor rumours
these transfers r nearly 100% correct and will happen!!!!

And great article BC!!!!

CHEERS!!!!

hunter wud be good choice but i dont think ajax will be willing to leave him.. the mid field is fine, no need of xtra players.. and bringing in another winger would harm us because robben is already unhappy to sit in bench..

Reasons why Huntelaar wont join:

1.He is in advanced negotiations with Fergie
2.JM is not interested
3.He wants to win the Dutch league with Ajax
4.Ajax wont sell him until the summer
CHANCES: 25%

Reasons why Alves wont join:

1.JM already has his eyes on Richards
2.Rafa has nearly agreed terms with Alves
3.CFC wont be able to persuade Sevilla not to sell him to LFC
4.With Lfc being taken over they can offer good enough amts.
5.Alves wants to join a spanish sort side in short LFC
CHANCES:30%

So all those dreaming abt these two joning CFC should wake up , they r not on JM’s targetlist!!!!! (Although i wld luv to see them in CFC colors)!!!!

Joeblue - About Kompany and Micah, which is your source of the news/rumour?

Not abt to disclose that BC but i can almost garuntee u the transfers and Huntelaar transfer has literally no chance!!!!

I heard Klose is available he is a good genuine striker

We need a central def .
But I can not see any long term signing in this Jan window.May be like last year we brought Maniche,this time also Jose will bring some CD on loan.
Otherwise we have a nice team
.But Please donot send Sheva anywhere

Sheva will not and should not go anywhere. He is a great player and also a great team man. We love Sheva.

Hii Blue Champ,Podolski is fantastic and as u said we can also look for Adriano,if at all we really need a striker.

I would prefer Podolski over Adriano any day. Smart and strong young chap, very sharp in the box. Podolski may take lesser time to settle down in EPL than Adriano.

Hey BC,
Dont you think, instead of going for one young striker from other club we should give chance to someone from our own youth academy? Scott Sinclair can fit into our 1st team. He has been phenomenal for youth academy.

I think instead of going for any foreign player in defense we should try for Micah Richards. Thats all we need.

We must sell SWP. We have enuf wingers. Kalu,Robben and Joey to be specific. And we are not playing on wings this season. So JM must show Red Card to SWP.

Hey Blu4life!

Guess you didnt read the article fully!!! I did mention in the last paragraph that Jose should try out Scott Sinclair, Ben Sahar and Mancienne. There is also a picture of Scott!!!

Anyway, I do feel that they should be given a chance. When Hilario can play against Barca in a Champions League match, Scott Sinclair can certinaly play in the FA cup match against Maccasfield.

Hey Blue Champ,we must look out for a DR - WBR who should juss be in the class as A.Cole.Dani Alves (Fc sevila) is a gud choice.I dont think we’ve to strengthen the squad more.

Looks like we should get a Centre back too. In Terry’s absence and Khalid’s continuing orientation, we’re exposed badly in the centre.

well i think..we shd make a move for the new ronaldinho..the porto startlet….ive seen him ..an well yeah ..hes good..its time we get smone hoo can mesmerize opponents..well yeah weve got joey coley..but im talkin from the middle…but cmin to think of it our middle is super enough…and weve got to sort oout the right back problem..jose says..jonson is coming bakl next year..but id say rosenior is better..
fulham..and england under 21…well he showed wat he cud do against chelsea..xcept that he gaver the penalty away..i tot he played really well..
hes young good,and english so waddu guys have to say??

SWP AND P.Ferr. have got to go definitely…not necessarily because they aren’t talented but they either just don’t fit or haven’t settled…especially SWP. In all fairness to him…he needs to go somewhere where he kows that the team needs him to be the man…He went from being the man at Man. City to being just another winger at Chelsea…I think it rattled his confidence in himself greatly. Also between Robben and Cole…Chelsea has its flanks covered with some of the best talent in the world …not to mention Kalou…Duff knew this so he moved on..Time for SWP to recognize this as well. We need a composed Central defender to help when terry and carhvalho are out, I honestly don’t like bholarouz and as for the right back position …that needs intense help..geremi is all there is and if he is out putting essien there even if he can play there is a waste of his skill…He is lethal in the middle!!! Up front…ALL HAIL KING DROGBA and Sheva will find the net soon …don’t worry Chelsea fans!!! I think we could use one more killer n front though…a man whocan come on and opposing defenders will say “oh no…not him now!” I think like a podolski….but getting him might be wishful thinking… Anyway fear not chelsea fans because I believe that we will win the league again this year. It is because though I respect Man Utd. I think that right now they are getting lucky…also though they have some very good players i don’t think these guys are world class acts.. take saha for instance…he cannot compare to a drogba or a sheva … english teams are just making a lot of blunders in defence and allowing him to score easy goals…but u can’t be lucky forever. Rooney also is yet to prove that he can be a twenty goal a season striker…he justy know to have a lot of talent… but talent alone is nothing if u don’t have results to show for it…so never fear chelsea fans…we’ll catch them soon enough!!!!

hi guys
i think we should give chance to our academy player we can so for richards other than that we have enough talent more money should be spend on youth academy jm knows thw bwst he will do the best for the club we hope for the best

I think chelsea needs to adress the central defense spot ASAP….last 3 games our team has let in 6 goals thats way too many, we should get an experienced solid defender like jaap stam who now how to play consistent and solid like terry.

i think getting micah richardson is very tempting but is he experienced enough?…if we have to ship swp back for a swap deal to man city ok pull it, but we still need one more solid central defender.

schev is not producing enough (thats the truth even thought it hurts) …he have played more than 20 games for chelsea now, and still look weak and lost on the field.

imagine drogba goes down with an injury then we are f… i honestly think we should get a extra solid striker like ronaldo from madrid or a torres just incase.

We need a cb and fast otherwise no chance of any tiltes this season……..
The only names crossing my mind r F.Meira of stuttgart, J.Andrade of Deportivo, Bordon of Schalke, Juan of Leverkusen and the young Metzelder of Dortmund good enough to replace JT and will also be available for champs lg!!!!!!

And Micah is a done deal , imagine we have offered 20mn pounds for him!!!!!

Here is some breaking news to wake up to: Micah Richards looks set to sign from Man City for £18m.

And a £7m bid for Birmingham defender Mathew Upson.

yeah I just seen that. If its true - its a bit desperate!!

I dont agree BB58 there r not many defenders available and if JM has gone for Upson then he is smart(as always) Upson has got loads of experience in the premier league and is available for a move i cant ask for it to get better!!!!!

Take your point JB. But I wouldn’t say that Upson has loads of experience in the PL. Remember he was in the Birmingham team that got relegated!!

Anyway it is ironic that Upson has a groin injury and may miss the Birmingham game against Luton tonight. Is he really injured or is he going to sign on Monday??

ChelseaBoulahrouz must go his defending style is poor and he misses important tackles let him go play for watford or sumthin and also SWP must go he doesnt perform in a Cheslea shirt and losses the ball at the attack’s prime
These players should be lost in January

Ballack didnt have a good game againest Fulham but he is mixing in much better then Sheva on a weekly Basis

We should be looking to grab Adriano in January .. Inter Have let him go dew to bad form but he is only 24 and Jose can mold him back and he can partner drogba upfront …when we let boulahrouz and shaun wright philips we can offer big big money for adriano who is a fantasic finisher

Micah Richards is a great idea he is amazing

LIEDSON from Sp. Lisbon (wishful finking?) very quick, nippy striker, technical, natural goalscorer, but lightweight. Or DEFOE. As CB, what happened to our ALEX from PSV??? (It doesn’t really matta who we buy cos mourinho is an expert at making players lose their form. ROBBEN has over five years exp. under his belt (been playing since 17 at Gronigan), for us he’s had one period of three months when he was sensational. Then struggled last year and now hardly plays. Look at C. RONALDO now and how Ferguson has over 3 seasons developed him into a .MONSTER!

Robben is a gifted winger. But he is no match to C.Ronaldo. Ronado is a magician and far more powerful and influential than Robben. Even if you make a monster of Robben, Ronaldo would still be better than Robben. So, dont slate jose.

i would prefer messi or christiano ronaldo and german defenders like lahm, friedrich and others like metzelder .we can also try the paraguayan sensation santa cruz as a striker frm bayern munic…or try sergio ramas in defence from real madrid…or get woodgate from middlesborough he can defend well

get swp,p.ferriera andd kalid boulharouz out quickly .sign te youth team goalkeeper

Boulharouz and S W P out, Is Messi available?

may be klose is better choice as a strker signing

We are closing in on Micah Richards. Some sources say that he would in playing this weekend for Chelsea!!!

SWP AND FERREIRA OUT.

BRING AYALA ON LOAN / TRANSFER.
ALSO BRING A RIGHT WINGER .

BASTIAN SWEITSNEIGER(GERMANY) MAY BE USEFULL.

Some pots here r absolutely ridiculous Santa Cruz a sensation??
since when??? and Messi ?? he wont cost anything under 100 mn$ on top Barca wont sell him in Jan!!!! And why on earth should we sign Bastian??? We already have Robben and Kalou!!!!

Now back to reality:
Micah is nearly a done deal!!!
Ben Haim or Mexes r the other possibilities!!!!

And BC cant understand why the hell we cant recall Alex????

Alex is cup-tied with PSV. I dont think José would be interested in a cup-tied player.

Sources say we are very close to signing the Israeli defender Tal Ben Haim from Bolton

Great news guys JM is going all-guns-blazing for Porto star Quaresma!!!!

hmmm….lots of accolades for Quaresma in Wikipideia…lets hope he helps us bringing back the title….

Wow this piece of news exites me the most JM has reported interested in………..R.Ayala of Valencia , man if he joins CFC forget the defensive problems!!!!!

Blues boss Jose Mourinho wants to sign the 6ft 3in Australian-born centre-back Josip Simunic (28 years) on loan for the rest of the season from German side Hertha Berlin.

Darren Bent and Milan Baros are also seem to be in the radar.

HEY BC CHECK OUT THIS ARTICLE FROM ITV FOOTBALL:

Devil’s Advocate: Chelsea are great
There are very many arguments against the culture of profligate spending of Europe’s richest clubs and how this is detrimental to traditional football values. Richard Ferraris changes gear and plays Devil’s Advocate on behalf of the bete noire of football: Chelsea FC.

Chelsea are frequently cast as scapegoats for the state of football, but without the Londoners the Premiership would be far less competitive.

Roman Abramovic’s spendthrift methodology is another evolutionary step towards globalising football and entrenching it as the world’s best and most exciting sport.

Wealthy owners are part of the fabric of European football history, especially in Italy where the Agnelli and Moratti families have run Juventus and Internazionale as family businesses.

All the talk in the English game is about the burgeoning number of foreign investors.

It would appear as if there is a fair amount of xenophobia surrounding the takeovers, as one need only cast one’s gaze Stoke City and Fulham’s way to observe that foreign ownership doesn’t necessarily lead to the destruction of traditional values.

Football fans seem to have exceedingly short memories as it was not long ago that Manchester United were the literal embodiment of evil when Sir Alex’s forked tongue did all the talking.

David Beckham’s hooves trotted down the right wing and the sick sulphuric stench of rampant commercialism clung to that temple of kitsch; the Theatre of Dreams.

Indeed their domination through the 1990’s equates to perhaps the greatest monopoly over the English League since the round ball was first kicked around in an organised fashion during the Victorian era.

United’s evil empire extended to eight Premiership titles and a one-club cartel with unparalleled buying power in the transfer market.

And in 2003 Chelsea emerged as a rival superpower. An obscure ‘oil-garch’ funded the quest to send the demons of Old Trafford into the purgatory of runners-up.

But to rehash an old cliche: football is a funny game. Neither Chelsea nor United could compete with Arsenal of all teams in 2003 - as the Gunners not only won the Premiership - but did not lose a single league game all season either.

However as all football fanatics (should) know, Chelsea overwhelmed all takers the following two seasons. Predictably recrimations and criticism followed.

“Chelsea are bad for the game…”

“The title was bought…”

Meanwhile in Manchester American Malcolm Glazer launched a hostile takeover of United. The occasional outburst aside most of the vitriol was still directed Chelsea’s way.

While the purists threw projectile vomit Chelsea’s way - very little analysis was centred around what Chelsea had done in terms of blowing the Premiership wide-open.

Prior to the Chelsea revelation only Arsenal and Blackburn had taken the Premiership from the clutches of United, but never for any longer than one season.

Abramovic has thrown £500 million Chelsea’s way in transfers since he took over, indicating that the Blues are more than a dilettante side-show to him. In fact Abramovic’s presence at home games at Stamford Bridge is as ubiquitous as John Terry’s.

The Londoners are good for the English game simply because competition is beneficial. As such under Jose Mourinho - however reviled he may be - Chelsea have set the bar higher.

The erstwhile most-hated team Man Utd have responded to Chelsea’s gauntlet marvelously and are going to challenge them all the way in the 2007 title-race.

Moreover, United have played with sumptuous verve and attacking flair in response to the Blue-tide.

It is now up to Liverpool and Arsenal to hunt down the top-two and if this must be done via foreign investors - then what must be must be.

The Premiership is an elite league and suggestions to curtail and regulate clubs (as some have suggested wage caps and so on) smacks of hypocrisy. Were such measures taken then football would follow Formula One down the proverbial drain.

F1 is supposed to be at the pinnacle of motorsport - but regulations on development and technological advancements have rendered the sport as nothing more than glorified go-karting.

If the Premiership follows this model and also fails to keep abreast with contemporary economic developments then we might as well watch cricket or the Scottish League.

The acolytes of anti-globalisation ought to remember that it is the phenomenon of globalisation which has transformed the Premiership brand into one of the most exciting and lucrative sports spectacles around.

Yet cynics continue to bemoan the lack of parity which has accompanied the footballing revolution as symbolised by Chelsea.

But what the historically-minded fans forget is that even without Chelsea it is absolutely beyond reason to expect the likes of Charlton to compete for major honours.

That is unless someone has £500 million lying around.

Richard Ferraris

I don’t think there is any need of signing new players.
It’s great that John Terry is back, and Petr Cech and Robben will be back on mid-january.
Everything will be okay after these 3 players come back.

Bardh Kukaj - Chelsea Fan

if drogba goes for injury we are dead,but as we go for that magical david villa i think we have no problem and i am sure we have premier league,f a cup,champions league,carling cup and charity cup.Please my best coach make us win all the tittles

hey BC is JM trying to bring ayala”

in none again

Sadly it does seem the case that the boss is given nothing to spend on. Hopefully we’ll have Carlo back for Anfield… maybe even JT. That’d definitely be a boost.

Does anyone now, will Petr Cech will be back for Anfield.
Everyone was saying that he’ll be back in mid-january, but still nothing new.
Hope JT is back for Anfield!

does anyone now if chelsea v porto 2nd leg will be shown on itv
