Awwww, poor old Deco isn’t happy with life at Chelsea and wants us to set him free from his misery – or at least sell him to Inter so he can go and be happy once more with Mourinho. The 31 year old, who was brought in last summer by Luiz Felipe Scolari and managed [...]

Am I the only one really worried about the transfer market this summer? Roman Abramovich is rumoured to finally be ready to spend some serious money again and it seems as if we can’t bloody persuade anyone to come – or anyone likely to have an impact anyway. There’s Real Madrid shelling out £140million on [...]

If there’s one thing Chelsea supporters have learnt over the past five years, it’s that Didier Drogba and speculation go hand-in-hand. Our Ivorian striker has had an apparently untreatable case of itchy feet since the moment he arrived from Marseille and you don’t have to read to much into his latest comments to see his [...]

Ben Sahar has really struggled to get himself into the picture at Chelsea. In three years, he’s made just five appearances as a substitute, spending most of his time out on loan.

It’s starting to look suspiciously like Carlo Ancelotti and Fabio Capello aren’t exactly best mates eh? As timely as ever, the press thought it’d be a good idea to release the odd paragraph of Carlo Ancelotti’s autobiography right before England’s 4-0 win over Kazakhstan yesterday – the relevance of course being that the paragraphs in [...]

So, they certainly won’t be any happier to hear how “enthusiastic” Alexandre Pato is about our interest in him. Pato’s agent, Gilmar Veloz says “At the moment, I cannot [...]
