yes of course

Which was your favourite goal last season? Not in terms of importance for the season or for winning that game, but which goal gave you the most pleasure, made your hair stand and made you experience a state of pure ecstasy, given the quality of it and the opponent.

Who will be our outstanding attacking player this season? Last year we were all treated to some superb work by Joe Cole (his goal against Manu the pick of the season), will he outshine the attacking players this year or will some of the new boys have something to say about it? Who according to you will have the quick feet, the dummy turns, the stepovers and disguised through passes and of course the killer finishes this season?

With the new season about to kick off many clubs have re-structured their strike force. Some big name players have gone and bigger names have arrived. Which club do you think will benefit the most from their strikers? Note - Not only goals but contribution to style of play, assits, movement etc. Arsenal - Henry and Van Persie + Adebayor, Theo and Alladiere around. (and Reyes if he stays) Chelsea - Drogba and Shevchenko + Kalou around. Liverpool - Crouch and Bellamy + Fowler and Pongolle around. Newcastle - Owen and Luque + Ameobi Manchester United - Rooney and Saha + Smith, Solskjaer and perhaps Rossi. Tottenham - Keane and Berbatov + Defoe.

Agree with what Qaz and Butch have said. Dont think we will sign a striker. Waiting to see Kalou in action.

Yes .. but my condition is different. I think .. if JOSE has decided that he WILL NOT trust Bridge as first choice and wants to get a player at any cost to strenghten that position ... then i say buy Cole. But If he thinks Bridge is capable of doing the job week in week out (which i think he is) then I say get a younger player or dont get one at all.

I see JFH didnt make the list .. I also see Brian hasent taken objection to that! Henry would be favourite to be top scorer .. but I really hope its Sheva I hope we take the PL by STORM and Sheva and Drogba end up with a fark load of goals

Jose has confirmed that we will let go of one player and bring in another to take his place. - "I don't think there will be big movement. We can have one player to arrive and one to leave," he told Chelsea TV "I think other teams will work more than us on transfers. We have kept all the good players who were important for us last year and we have some new ones with a lot of quality." Most of us want Zambrotta to replace Del Horno, but thats possible only if we can get him ahead of Milan, Madrid and Barca .. and if we are not serious about Roberto. So .. which player do you think WILL eventually end up at Chelsea?

I dont agree, and I know all of us had a mammoth discussion about this on the CSR .. i remember that 8 page topic. I agree that Duff looks more confident when playing for ROI and moves quicker and does his job. I also agree that Jose had asked all the wide players to keep one eye on the defensive part and not foolishy bomb forward all the time. But, Duffs failure last season to beat players was not down to Jose, it was down to himself. I dont know what it is, you dont and I dont think anyone knows the truth. But to say that Jose asked Duff not to venture forward and thus we never saw Duffer beat a man is BS. How is it that Robben, SWP and Joey could move up, beat players, attack and defend - while Duff clearly looked the most confused outa the 4 when attacking. He moved up, stopped and passed to Lamps. I dont know what it was, maybe he was just not comfortable. Perhaps afraid that he would not be able to pull it off or just not interested maybe. Whatever the reason, im sure he was low in confidence .when he played for us and its not right to say that his failure last season was 100% due to Jose.

Ballack is also pretty tired after the WC. and i doubt Kalou will get as many games as Robben did last season to show his ability. However, I think Sheva might just prove to be the key man for us .. sticking away all those chances that Drogba couldnt in the past
