On SSN. Our bloody board need sacking if true. Our squad will be far too small.

yep down to 4 right backs! :)

Just heard this myself. very surrised as he only signed a new 4-year deal at the end of last season and is apparently a big fan of big Phil.

Maybe we can prize Ashton from them...

A total over reaction on your part.

Again.

As dkw said Bosingwa, Ivanovic and Belletti will be left.

be very sad to see Paulo leave, I think he ia a great player and very usefull at both right and left back.

Stiil, we have taken enough of their talent over the years.

That word 'GREAT' is soooo overused these days!

I'm surprised Scolari doesn't rate Paulo since he knows him very well.

I guess he wants us to get more attack oriented if he prefers Beletti to Ferreira.

It would be just common sense to let go one of them. We have Belletti, Bosingwa, Ivanovic, Paolo and Essien as backup for the right side. One too many IMO. I would like to see Ivanovic stay since he is still a question mark and could end up being a huge player for us.

I'd let him go.

I don't think he's ever hit top form for us, and although I prefer him to Ivanovic and Bosingwa, it's not as if either of them are going to leave any time soon...

Besides, we have one of the best full-backs in the world in Belletti. It's a real shame he wasn't given a chance to shine last year... (Michael Essien at RB? WTF!!!)

I heard the deadline was pushed back to Monday because they didn't want to work on a sunday. Did we not want to work on a monday either?

Just checked the Official Chelsea website.

Nothing!

No word on Paulo, no other transfers that we 'pulled out of the bag' in the final seconds.

I think Kenyon wass out on the lash all day!

I dunno, it would be pretty damn funny if we just turned up at Eastlands next weekend and Messi was warming up or something.

"Oh sorry... did we forget to mention? Yeah..."
