I really hope he isn't used as 'bait' for Falcao. A goalkeeper of his quality is much harder to find than a world class striker.

Nail Head.

The kid dived.

That is fantastic news! Common sense prevails at last. Lets hope Lamps is next!

Supposedly Lamps offered to take a massive pay cut to stay, not sure how true that is but was certainly reported a few weeks ago, if it is true then the reason for moving him on has to be more about the team than FFP. Also, if it is true it makes me even sadder to see him go. What a legend.

At the end of the day it's downright hypocrisy! The so called "elite" clubs trying to stop others crashing their little party - a bit late for that I say. I usually can't stand the Daily Mail and try to avoid it but Martin Samuel addresses this issue very well in his article here well worth a read if you have some spare time. Never thought I would see the day where the voice of reason comes from the DM...

I agree wit you Mike but I think that is the reality of modern players, how many times have we seen teams or players - not just Chelsea, come out and just not look up for it? It seldom happens with managers like Mourinho and dare I say, SAF.

I would like to see another ex-player given a shot, however unlikely I'm sure Steve Clarke would do a good job

Hi all, As you can probably guess I am new here and I just wanted to say hello to everyone! I love talking about Chelsea and football in general so this seems like a good place for me to be. Looking forward to meeting some more fellow Chelsea fans and having some good discussions along the way!
