Mikel, that block was the highlight of the match. When he came on Chelsea were able to hold on to the ball. KDB is not made for the premiership as well and Sch. Please sign Rooney

We actually need Mikel in this game. The problem is a lack of incisive passing. Lampard has also been invisible.

this game is crying for Mikel big time. Chelsea with only 40% poss. SMH

Have i ever called you names on this forum or better yet ever acknowledge you exist? what gives you the right to insult me?

great, so what you are saying is that majority of the post by these people are worthless and holds no water in reality?

so funny how folks who post on the internet assume they know who stays or who goes for the 2013 squad list SMH.. too many folks on this forum take themselves too seriously.. Why don't you all wait until the final squad is released.. SMH

They've been singing Mikel on his way out since May 2013. We are all still waiting. I think some of you should put a sock to it. Mikel on his way out ,Mikel this Mikel that. Chelsea are yet to transferlist this Mikel who gets so much hate on this forum. SMH

come on guys give me a break, what I post is for the good of the team. When you are a huge fan of CFC, you actually look out for the team.

Jose has increased the pressure on himself to perform( he must enjoy it). Too many redundant, exciting talent and yet he insists on John Terry and Lampard. He is setting himself up for controversy with players, agents, national team coaches and fans. One thing Benitez successfully did was show that neither(lampard/terry) were needed for the team to perform. Jose has back peddaled on the amazing creative template that was started last year. All that was needed was a striker that can score and better coaching of the stable back 4 of Azpi, iva(cahill), Luiz, Cole(bertrand) . Man-City based on the first round seems to be the best balanced team then again the season is not a sprint but a marathon

Chelsea has bought too many players and there are not enough games this season to warrant a squad this big. If this were last season, I could argue for it. Now Jose has to shed some players . Too many players want to make the WC and unless they are guaranteed starters for their national teams like Mikel and Moses, they will not be too pleased to the riding chelsea's bench. Not sure why MVG joined this season (may be next season but this season - no) Not convinced there is a need for Willian Never saw the rational in the Schurrle purchase (the Willian deal makes buying schurrle even more ridiculous) Unless Essien is an assistant coach in disguise not sure why he is still in Chelsea Its obvious now that BA has to be sold Kevin Van Debyrne should have continued his loan spell ( still a baller but all these purchases are hindering him) Moses- well he can ride the bench, keep collecting his pay day and still deliver. The pressure to play is much on him

The season will be very interesting. All these talk of pecking order is laughable. Many of you are just fans and post as if you have first hand info. No one saw the coming of Willian ( or not) Enjoy top quality players. Hopefully in about 12 days the window will be shut and we all get get a breather.

William plays the same role as Mata, Oscar, Moses, Hazard KDB, Schurrle. Wow loads of players will not be happy . I guess a lot of our players maybe leaving pretty soon

The reported money for Willian is just ridiculousIMO.. Not worth it.. If this is true, smacks more of Roman trying to stick one to Levy.. And if he comes - one of KDB/Moses/Schurrle got to be moved along.. Dont see what schurrle offers outside of work rate and defending.. Yet to see him light up the pitch offensively..

Sky Sports Breaking News: Brazilian Willian has already passed his medical at Spurs and a fee has already been agreed, however he has made a U-Turn and is now considering an offer from Chelsea. There are reports he could sign for Chelsea any time from now.. What does this say about Mata? Some reports indiciate he could now be on his way to Old Trafford as part of the deal involving Wayne Rooney..

I am laughing so hard. MVG rated higher than Mikel lol. The hype around this kid is priceless. The season is young, we shall address this .
