Posted July 2, 200717 yr Sky reports that Chelsea are on the verge of a loan deal that will send ben sahar to Charlton until 31st December. Is this a good move given the lack of cover in the striker positions?
July 2, 200717 yr Not a problem in the first half of the season as we have four fit strikers in the squad in addition to Sahar, wouldn't be a wise move in the second half of the season.
July 2, 200717 yr As long as it is only a loan and we have the option to recall him if we need him whenever... then I say let him go for the whole season, would be good experience I feel... I think AP would give him quite a bit of playing time.
July 2, 200717 yr i think its an excellent idea. he can come back fit and ready to play while drogbe, kalou etc are away.
July 2, 200717 yr Will be good for him to go out and get some first team experience, then hopefully he can come back and get some first team action once DD and Kalou go off to the ACN.
July 4, 200717 yr Author Coombsie ....Attics??? OOPS well spotted G55 !!! Got my Athletics mixed up. Charlton & Wigan I meant the Addicks !! PS Why are they called that ????????
July 4, 200717 yr I got told that before the club was established, there used to be a fish stand near the ground, and the salesman would call out 'addicks, get your addicks here' etc... dropping the 'h' like us saff Londoners do... and thats how the nickname was aquired. Back in the... 1999/2000 season there was a spoof vote given to season ticket holders about changing the club's badge, one of the options was of a fish, so I assume that rumour is pretty near the fact.

I tink you'll find it's true
July 4, 200717 yr get him a run in the prem just in time to come back to us before Didier heads off for the ACN...not bad at all
July 4, 200717 yr Previously the rumour was a move to the Palace. No way do i want us doing business with Mr Perma-Tan...
July 6, 200717 yr To be perfectly honest, if his loaned to Charlton, it will more than likely be a season-long loan. I mean, when's the last time we called a player back from loan mid-season? I don't remember Mourinho ever having done it.

Charlton got arsy and went to the FA as we had not placed in a recall clause. We were fined ?1.2m!!!!
