Surprised nobody has mentioned AVB getting the Marseille job. 

How do you think he'll do? 

Probably get 3rd or 4th then flop because of dressing room bust up.

With all the focus on winning the trophy and Eden pretty much saying he’s off it’s easy to forget about another Chelsea legend tonight. 

Thank for the memories Petr, great player and an even better man. Hopefully he’ll be back home next season. 

Poor guy had to spend years at that club to make way for a prat like Thibo

Could probably have easily played for a year in China or MLS for a year and picked up one last big payday so sort of admire that he went out on top.

Keep an eye on him, he might not have retired, he will just make you think he has then BANG, cuts inside and its in the corner.....

He's 35, although he's looked all of 35 for most of his playing career!!

 

Will be interesting to see if he stays in the game and if so at what capacity.

Thinking he might take a shot a management.

Happy retirement to him.

One of the most technically gifted players that has walked through the Chelsea door. A shame he was too injury prone for us to see the best of him frequently enough.

Robben was one of the best wingers of his generation, that is without a doubt. Even with all of those injuries he had, he always bounced back. Usually when a player picks up so many injuries, they are finished by their late 20's, but he just kept getting better. Messi and Ronaldo are top tier when it comes to footballers of his generation, but I think Robben was easily one of the best outside of those two.

Rumours going around that Diego Costa could be heading to Wolves. Would be great to have him back in premier league!

Knowing him, he’ll score against us and then celebrate in front of Chelsea supporters.

Would love to see him back in England, the big horrible bastard. 

Diego Costa to Wolves is the greatest rumour I never thought I needed in my life.

I just heard Sturridge has been reunited with his dog. Apparently he was in the 11th hospital the dog called.

Happy retirement to Robben.

Thought I'd already posted that ! DOH !!

Conte already fuming with Inter according to reports.

Think it is only in a temporary ambassador role. Perhaps he asked Frank to tag along to get a bit of an insight in what goes on behind the scenes. 

Hey @Valerie I have a bit of good news for you

 

@robdog you know me so well 

Top 'transfer' news!

I think it’s a shame he’s not still with the first team myself.
