i am a barcelona fan but i have to say that next year chelsea is gonna be very powerful because allthe players she is buying are talented . ballack is a very goog player and he will help next to lampard . sevchenko is better than drogba and crespo but i don't think he play as well as he played in milan because the english doesn't fit him .kalou is young fast and talented but i think you already have players like him .

On paper yes they have great players in every position AND pretty good back-up players.\nBut I don't think they can compare Chelsea's history with the other big English teams.\n\nSince Roman Abramovich bought Chelsea he cleared their debts and bought lots of players.\n\nIn my opinion, He is trying to make a team of galacticos same way Real Madrid did, But in his case he is balancing the team not focusing on Attacker and Mids the way Real did.\n\nBut this is hurting Chelsea, Now a lot of their supporters are glory hunters, they know nothing about pride, Honor or loving the team.\nAll they care about is "Player X and player Z plays for us" or "We won the EPL" etc....\n\nMr. Abramovich once said "..........., it's really about having fun and that means success and trophies."\nNow what will happen if they don't win any trophies?\nWhat will happen when he gets bored of all this Football and decides he will leave Chelsea.\nNo more 'Sugar Daddy' ?!\n\nWill they go in debt again?!! (hope not) but with their team's high salaries I doubt they won't\nWill their so called supporters AKA "glory hunters" support them?!\nI would really feel sorry for the REAL Chelsea supporters.\n\nFinally, I may be completely wrong, But this is the way i see it.

Juan Riquelme now that would be a signing! I think they have a wealth of players to choose from. They have the $$$$ but they need to spend it wisely and tatically unlike some corrupted Spanish team who I won't mention--*cough Real Madrid cough*. Well I think Roman would be great although I would miss him on the Villareal Squad..hmmm\n\nSince Van Nistlerooy was throwing a hissy fit I think they might replace him and/or keep him benched. They have decent strikers--rooney, saha. They also have good midfeilders. I don't know about the defense. Rio is strong and so is Silvestre but I think Patrice Evra was a waste of cash yah? Brown is one fire too. I don't know who they can get really. I would love to see them snatch Carlos Tevez before Chelsea get their filthy hands on him. Do not underestimate Tevez's skill. He just might be the next Maradona...heck the next Pele. I think they can also snatch some of the Madrid players to  put them to better use. Madrid doesn't know how to manage for **** and their players have a lack of communcation like umm every game. The managers also quit and give up on the squad after a month--two months max.\nSo if Man U were to say buy that mid-ogre--the danish one and maybe Robinho--wow what a dream that would be huh? You can wish can't you? Adriano would be perfect but he is out of reach too. I am stumped so I am going to stick with my main man Juan Roman and my next main man Tevez! *Go Tevez*

Becuse he is too self-centered and egoistic. He has enormous amount of talent in making Chelsea one of the best team in the history, but is ultra-confident. And we all know what over confidence can do to anybody. \n\nBtw, which club do you support?

I think they will sign whoever they don't want any other club to sign.  Cynical, I know, but what other team has so many exceptional players sitting there virtually unplayed?\n\nMy heart will break if they sign Ashley Cole :(

70,000 Man United fans on Sunday got it spot on when they chanted:\n#Ashley Cole - is a "banker" is a "banker" :p#

for kappa italia..........ma vaff******............tell all the centroavanti in serie A that materazzi sucks............no one wants to face il Matrix..........even though he may be considered a dirty player, he is a great/physical defender with both technical and tactical abilitiy. to answer the original question, figo veron and of course il nostro grande capitano javier zanetti have contributed the most this season.........cambiasso too. but inter have too many argintines......we need piu' italiani (rumor has it we're interested in franceso tavano, bomber dell'empoli).....that would be a good signing i think

I AM ALSO A GUNNER FAN, HOWEVER I FEEL CHELSEA WOULD BE IDIOTS TO SELL LAMPARD. HE IS A PROVEN PLAYER, TO BUY BALLACK WHO MIGHT NOT EVEN BLEND INTO THE TEAM.

As a Man United supporter, I must say no :).  Chelsea is very good but I think United will give them a good run and come out on top in the end.

I think Liverpool and Man Utd would be battling it out for the title if it wasn't for Abrahmovich and his billions. Maybe a few good purchases by Rafa and we can come close but Chelsea just have too much money and can buy pretty much anybody they want....apart from Steven Gerrard of course!!!!!

True. As you they could not land all the good players at stamford bridge without his money, or Jose Mourihno. His money is everything for Chelsea.

Have anybody heard lampard to barca?\n\nAnswer:\nReports in this week's papers claim that Barcelona are ready to step up their bid to sign Chelsea and England midfielder Frank Lampard, with a swap deal for Portuguese international Deco being mooted. However, Deco is having none of it: "I don't know anything about it but that is not a problem for me," he said. "I have a contract signed with Barcelona and my unique preoccupation is to play each Sunday" .

One of the most terrible moves made by Mourinho. Yes it might work out for the first few weeks, but Lampard will have to be substituted off just to put Ballack. Cole hasn't been on many starting line-ups as he use to. Lampard and Cole would not like that. They will want to be played more often or if not want their contracts with Chelsea terminated. Believe me Mourinho will regret it. Plus Chelsea have enough midfielders to start another team.

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.

It's almost been 24 hours and I still can't believe this.  Shaun Wright Phillips is left off the squad.  Defoe is on the reserve squad...but Walcott is on the starting squad.  Gamble or dumb move?  I think it's a dumb move.  Here in the states, Bruce Arena is smart enough to leave Freddie Adu out this year....because he is too young with too little experience.  But the Swede selects Walcott.  Unbelievable!  Total slap in the face to SWP.

I think QPR will be OK next year,after a good clear out close season get some experience into help the young players settle in.I think we will finsh mid table with waddle in charge.The board have to get the management situation sorted out as quick as possible,find the money somewhere to pay Ollie off.I hear a rumour that he may end up at swindon with b power and m devlin.Went to reading on Sunday,that game just about summed up our luck at the moment,never a penalty should have at least got a draw.\nCome on you SUPERHOOPS
