no...will lose identity and a chance to win championship with Chelsea next year....needs to be somewhere where can stand out and see results instead of being bumped around and playing some here and some there

I suppose I wouldn't mind Michael Ballack playing for England (who I support).\n\nI look forward to having Ballack in the Premiership next season.

I am a chelsea fan. cudicini is a good goalkeeper.But cech is doing a great job for chelsea at the moment.So it is very unlikely that cudicini would get more chances than he is getting now.According to me cudicini should leave chelsea and sign up for any other club next season in order to save his career.

I prefer Ballack... Just look at the German team... They are playing better just by simply having him play on the field. Ballack is more skillful with the ball, and that assisting in the 2nd goal in the game against Equador... Pure Talent!!\n The way I see it, the German team relys heavily on Ballack to become a perfectly unified team, whereas Beckham, IMHO plays with more of that superstar power and good character card... Plus, the English team has more better players than Beckham... Even if he was out, I don't think it would hurt the English team's unity that much...

No, money can't do everything. Team spirit is more important. If everyone in Chelsea has the same spirit as Lampard, then Chelsea have a chance; if they keep on buying players who don't gel, they won't win anything except the Premier League.

If they don't win the Champions League then he'll go. They may be in the final but domestically Arsenal are going backwards and will need some serious reinforcements if they are to compete in the league next year. If he goes it'll have to be to Barça; they're getting better each year and the chance to play next to Ronaldinho will be a factor. He also knows some of the squad and the coach quite well. Real Madrid don't stand a chance. Alfredo Di Stefano, Real's "honorary" president, has already admitted this, as they turned him down when Monaco sold him to Juventus, and Real now are another team going nowhere.

I reckon the guy who says Beckham plays for Chelsea would like it to be true. Becks plays for Real Madrid and is currently negotiating a new contract with them.... dream on Chelski.

i think next season willbe the tightest for many years. as we all know chelsea can go out and buy whoever they want  and they will be the team to beat, especially if they do land Michael Ballack.  They need to land a top class striker as crespo and drogba are not cut out for the premiership.\nman united need to get  replacement for roy keane and also need to get the van nilsterooy situation sorted.  if they can buy someone who will strengthen the midfield and have a better combination up front with rooney then they will be hard to stop.  i don't know if they will sell van nilsterooy or just get him more settled.\nliverpool have improved a lot this season. getting over 70points in the premiership has been a long way off recently but this season rafa has the team playing well. if it had not been for that non scoring spell at the start of the season we would be up there now chasing chelsea and united.  obviously the defence is fantastic, it would be even better if we could find someone to take traore.  we need a winger, but then mark gonazalez has been doing fantastic in spain this season so hopefully his visa will be cleared this year.  and of course we need a prolific striker. fowler should stay but his days of scoring 25 goals a season are gone.  we need someone young and who has proven their talent already. darren bent maybe, or andy johnson if palace aren't promoted. \narsenal's young players really came to fruition in the second half of the season and they will have to dratically improve their away form next season if they are going to be up theree. if they manage ot hold on to henry then they will still need to bolster their midfield, especially as it appears pires is leaving. if henry leaves however, they will have a large sum of money to improve the squad. note i didn't say replace him, because a player of his skill and importance will never be replaced.\nso for next season it will be a close run thing. liverpool improved this year in having less stupid results against the minnows butin games against chelsea they suffered. that is the stumbling block for all the big teams, taking points off eachother but then taking nothing off chelsea. \nso to conclude........i think next season will depend on liverpool getting a top class striker. if they do then i think they will be the strongest contender to chelsea's title. bnt i expect chelsea to buy the title again.

Excellent question!\n\nMourinho might have been successful with FC Porto, but cut his endless supply at Chelsea & he'll be left floundering! Chelsea won the Premiership 2 years in a row. Next year, let's see where they stands! If you ask me, at best Chelsea will be 3rd next year.\n\nEven with all his money, players are asking to leave the club, as they're tired of warming the bench & hardly getting a chance to play first-team football...

My dears, Thierry Henry has already signed a new 4-year contract with Arsenal 2 days ago, so he ain't going nowhere this season, or for that matter for the next 4 seasons.\n\nMy guess as to the biggest transfer (in monetary terms of course) is Shevchenko. Chelsea, as usual, are going to spend 1 billion on the fabulous marksman. But i still think no one should go to Chelsea cos all they can offer is cash. No pride, no honour, no spirit.

I doubt he will EVER play for Real, he already well established in Barcelona, and he himself said that he plans on staying there until the end of his contract, which is in 2014 (I think).\n\nalso, dd_mostwanted: let me guess, are you a Chelsea fan? or worse, are you Mourinho? ... Messi, weak? what is wrong with you? haven't you seen him play, or have you been living under a rock for the past 2 years?!?

Michael Ballack is an excellent player, he's one of the best in German history. He will make the difference between an early exit and late elimination round participation for the German team this summer.

i think germany is going to go far this world cup\ni don't like kuranyi that much \ni prefer ballack (of course), kahn, or the young forwards\nof course, kahn is getting old and ballack is probably moving to chelsea (DAMN!)
