No she hasn't!

Essien wouldn't be back if she'd left

Drogba has also returned to Chelsea this week

Only training for now but might sign on loan for after the ACON. We could just paint him white and give him a blonde wig

She left on the day Di Matteo left unfortunately

Yeah, Drog's back for Training, if you do Loan him, how awful will Torres feel!

No she didn't, we got a new medical director but she's still first team doctor! She will never leave, well not until she's past it.

And who cares about Torres anymore, he can go in Jan were not Torres FC, everything seems to revolve around him and its annoying. We should be working around Mata Oscar and Hazard. Ie getting them a decent striker to play with

She did Leave

It will be officially official soon

Typical Chelsea fan showing support to a struggling player

No she didn't! She was at the west ham game

And Chelsea fans shown a lot more support to Torres than most fans would, he said himself the best moment of his career was the support Chelsea fans showed to him during his really really bad spell.

Obviously ill support him when he's playing but no point denying I want him to be the first player to go in January. He's arguably cost RDM his job!

Was he? I must be wrong then

Fair enough, but I think Torres needs more time, although he is starting to take the Pi** with the no-goals-for-12+-hours ratio

she*

Needs more time? It's been 2 years almost!

He had a great start to this season but he's gone back to being rubbish. There's so many strikers out there the are better we need one in jan, otherwise were not going to improve

Alvaro Pereira or Criscito? Periera improving slightly for Inter now, and much more well-known then Criscito

Also got Pjanic

Great talent at AM, He should have never left Lyon

= but I'd be leaning towards criscito just now, an on form Perriera better for me

Pjanic so much better than florenzi, he should be playing in the three with Lamela and Totti

PL clubs need to scout Bundesliga more often. They are well stocked in just about every position. At CF, you could try:

Bas Dost
Huntelaar
Kiessling
H.M Son (As a RF)
Arnautovic
Alexander Mier


Yeah, Pereira looking like he's getting to his early Porto days, so thought why not. Criscito not rated by many, and I have Schennikov in reserve, who I trust in to start for me as well.

Where is Pjanic's best position?

They're all good but for a club like Chelsea's think we have to go for the best possible, test the likes of Napoli and Atleti with bids for Cavani, Falcao, if not now then definitely in summer. If you compare the top 3 squads I think we're only properly behind in CF.

GK imo we have the best starter of the three, back up is poor but never mind
Defence think we can match them tbh
Midfield better than uniteds, maybe a behind City in terms of depth
Strikers we are no where near either

And pjanic AM but good dropping deep like Mata type players

You have Courtous in Back-up, don't you forget

Falcao would complete your team, even though a new LB (I don't like Bertrand) should be welcomed. Or play Azpil there, and Ivanovic RB, with Luiz + Terry/Cahill/New CB

I really don't need Pjanic tbh, so may offer him to Hull as he would really improve them.

Sakho or Alvaro at LB?

I won't forget Courtois but I can't see him ever being back up for us, he'll stay on loan until maybe a season before Cech is ready to go and they'll rotate a lot imo

Cech been amazing this season ago though so hopefully another 3 seasons at least before he has to move

LB we will definitely need a new one but happy with Bertrand starting. Azpi has to stay RB he's been amazing, Ivanovic good for rotation at RB and CB with Azpi, Luiz, Cahill, Terry and hopefully next season Kalas.

Midfield pretty much sorted, we need a CM but have three out on loan anyway

Tbh I think we need a CF or two and a LB. the rest can be covered by the players we have out on loan, particularly Kalas, Chalobah, De Bruyne, Josh and Lukaku. Obviously Courtois at a later date. Those are the 6 that really have a big big chance imo

T.Hazard looks very good too but id like to see him make the move to Bundesliga and then we can get a proper look, looks far too good for Belgium though

You really should be looking at Wilfried Bony, He's literally unstoppable. A complete tank, he could actually be as good as Drogba Imo.

Would any of Monreal/Sakho start ahead of Pereira at LB?

From what I've seen he'll be a very good player, wouldn't agree Drogba standard though in all honesty, think that's asking an awful lot considering Drogba was probably the best in the world at his very best

He'd be a good signing if we didn't have Lukaku, imo he's a similar player and were best to develop Lukaku, we need someone who's more like a Falcao, Martinez even a Hernandez type with the pace and movement. Not that Lukaku isn't quick, he's rapid, but I'd prefer us to have a different option to him

Or even Enrique

Bony has it in him IMO

He was at Marseille till 24 when he moved, Bony is 23 and hitting all the heights in a League that is packed with young talent

Morning lads,

Need to improve on some positions now and even my back up although my squad seem to be doing well
