Nico has signed a one year extension taking him to 2012 with us. Good news, obviously asked for a wage that was more suitable than a certain other player.

Nice to hear it! But can we sign Torres now?

Good stuff! Apart from his goal drought, I thought he was great last season, he was incredibly useful at times. He's a very valuable asset to have, I think :)

great news indeed

He told that he likes London! :D

Awesome news, really has been worth every penny we paid for him

Well, he had time to come over and sign.

Good business, may not have scored the goals he did the previous season - but he holds up play well, has fantastic speed, very rarely loses the ball... Glad he's staying. After the CL final I wanted rid.

Same here, and boy am I glad to be proven wrong.

He doesnt show any signs of slowing down because of his age, but it shows great prudence by the club to extend him by only a year. Great news

Glad to hear it... he worked hard to help Chelsea to the double and even though he was not on the score sheet as often as we might have liked he played a vital part in our success... he also seems settled with the rest of the squad and as far as I am aware he don't give Carlo any lip so no danger of him being left out of the team or being sent home on match days...

I don't think he has a future with the national team anymore, so there is an extra plus for us.

Delighted with this news. Had my doubts about him before this season, but his work ethic and consistently high standards have since cemented him as one of my favourites at the club.

Tells Domenech to take a powder and then signs a contract extension inn the same week...What a guy

Great news, quality player - his link up play at times is superb.
