Tenuous link to Sami Khedira for £20m
Too similar to Ramires for me and not really the type of player we need. We have plenty of midfielders who can make a tackle and get box to box but we need a little more craft and guile. Now if Ozil were available...

Managing kids football
Your coaching under 7s I have to ask how many scouts have approached you? I scouted an under 7s game once and counted another 9 who i KNEW all from different clubs.

Billy Clifford gets new 4 year deal
4 years is unusually long for a player of his potential. Not saying I don't think he'll make it. Just that he's not a definite like Josh. I also can't see him getting many minutes on the pitch any time soon with Bossy and Ivo in their prime. Glad to see we're at least giving the lad a chance though

Questions from a blog
1: In the mid 90's when I was about 7 I decided I needed to pick a team to support. I looked at the prem league table in the paper seen Chelsea in about 11th or 12th and thought that'll do me. 2: Delighted with the signings of Lukaku and Mata. They look top quality and Luka will hopefully lead the line for the next decade. Raul Meireles I'm disappointed about as I felt we should have made a bid for Goetze at Dortmund before everyone else goes for him. 3:While I appreciated the work Carlo did for us I never really felt comfortable with him as the manager. If we didn't batter a team we would struggle and it always felt like all or nothing under him. We were either brilliant or laboured 4: As long as they perform on the pitch I don't care what they do off it so long as its not illegal. They can have a drink and have sex as much as they like for me but I'd rather it was consensual. 5:I feel we may drop points around the christmas period this year and take ourselves out of the title race as we adapt to our new manager but come March we'll settle down and will steamroll teams till the end of the season. I fancy us for the FA cup but I'm sorry to say I don't care how we do in Europe. Its never been a priority for me and I'd be quite happy if the premier league pulled all the English clubs out of it. 6: Mata will be awesome and this will be the season Sturridge comes good. Outside of Chelsea Eden Hazard will be playing Champions League football this season and I expect him to be the Alexis Sanchez of next summer (everyone will be trying to sign him). Hope that helps mate but I've had to rush it a bit

You can have one (just one!) player sign for Chelsea, who would it be?
Pep Guardiola. I'm thinking if we got him and Roman got his wallet out we may be able to get a Messi and Iniesta. Just a thought

Please Frank take the hint and
Before hosting the 2006 world cup the German Government stopped the press from reporting anything negative about any of the German players apparently. Would be nice if ours would do the same. I'd like to see if it made a difference to performance

Plan B?
If we need plan B we could do a lot worse than Diego at one of the big German clubs (I've forgot which one) He's only about 25 and would give us a bit of flair

The dirty word....transition
I know I'm in the minority but transitional season to me sounds like forming excuses before the season has got going.

Luka Modric
Would they really want Benayoun when Kranjcar can slot straight into the gap Modric leaves

Europe's 'best' league
Is it just me who feels the championship is the most exciting league in the world. Vastly unpredictable at both ends of the table culminating in the play off final which for some reason is more positive and free flowing than the champs league final.

Cech Out
Turnbull and Hilario won't be under much scrutiny due to De Gea at Utd taking up so much media attention. At least they won't be under as much media pressure as would normally be the case. That can only be a positive

Who......
I bet when her partner found out she was working at the same club as JT he gave her a can of mace and a chastity belt.

Name your wide man
I agree with regards to taking a punt on Diego. He could be superb for us if we can get him

What about a cheeky Pedro bid ?
I'd be disgusted if we signed him. Cheatings a part of football these days but he's as bad as Cristiano Ronaldo was. I wouldn't mind us putting in a bid for Mario Gotze at Dortmund though

Is it too young to sign him?
I worked as a youth scout for a league 1 club until a couple of years ago and I can assure you clubs will have already approached this kids parents. I went to watch an under 7's tournament a few years back and I counted scouts from 9 prem league clubs and they were just the ones I knew. There is pressure from the clubs to pick the kids up as young as possible and some hold special training sessions for children as young as 5

The life and times of Joey Barton
We could put him in for the liverpool match and ask him to man mark Gerrard. That could have beneficial consequenses for us Just kidding he'd probably end up getting in a fight with some of the lads on the training ground Remeber Dabo
