Yeh I think I trust BBC more than goal.com

'Robinho said: "It would be a dream for me to work with Luiz Felipe Scolari, who is one of the best coaches in the world.

"I have always spoken highly of him and he has always spoken very highly of me, since well before he was at Chelsea

"In 2003, when I was unknown in Europe, he called me to play in a charity match. It was brief but it was enough for me to see his style and character."

And Robinho's agent, Wagner Ribeiro, was reported as saying in Spain: "Madrid have failed to value him as he deserves and I do not like the fact that they tried to include him in the Ronaldo deal. Money is not the problem for us now.

"What matters for Robinho is to leave the club and play for Scolari at Chelsea." '

Scolari wants to keep Shevchenko

Despite making only a few starts for Chelsea last season, Andriy Shevchenko will stay at the club if new manager Luiz Felipe Scolari has anything to do with it.

Ukraine international Shevchenko did not get many starting chances under former bosses Jose Mourinho and Avram Grant, but the new man in charge is not keen to let the former AC Milan star go back to Italy.

Scolari, who recently took over at the Blues after managing Portugal, said: "Last season he made 12 starts and scored eight.

"Yes, he is a player for Chelsea. If I see him in training and if I believe in him, I will put him on the field."

Also seemingly staying at Stamford Bridge is defender Ricardo Carvalho, who had been linked with a move to Inter Milan, where Mourinho is now in charge.

Carvalho, looking forward to the new season, said: "It is good to see all the people again, fighting for the club like we have for the past few years."

Kaka eyeing Chelsea switch?

AC Milan playmaker Kaka has set his heart on a sensational world-record transfer to Chelsea, according to the player's advisor.

Reports on Saturday suggested the former FIFA World Player of the Year was the subject of discussions between the Blues and Milan, with a view to a possible 80 million pound switch.

The Italian giants secured the signing of Kaka's Brazilian team-mate Ronaldinho from Barcelona on Wednesday despite the club's well-publicised financial difficulties, and Kaka's personal assistant Diogo Kotscho is adamant all parties involved now want the deal to go through.

The move would see Kaka reunite with Blues manager Luiz Felipe Scolari who handed him a Brazil debut in 2002 at the age of 20, and then included him in the squad that went on to win the World Cup that year.

"Real Madrid offered 90 million euros (71million pounds) last summer and Milan did not even think about the bid," Kotscho said.

"This time is different. This is the first time we feel that a deal will definitely happen.

"Because of the situation Milan are in at the moment, the deal is good for all parties involved.

"The move would represent a significant increase in Kaka's salary, on top of the 10 percent transfer fee that goes straight to the player anyway - some 15 million euros (12million pounds).

"Chelsea are the club to be at right now. They are building a team to win everything."

[Aryaan21]

If Kaka wants to leave, Milan wont keep him against his will. Im still suprised Chelsea havent let go of some of their players, the squad is starting to get 2 big. I would expect SWP, Makalele, Belleti and at least a few others to be on their way out.

[persian boy]

yea,i agree with you, im thinking these players to go out:

-Wright-Philips
-Belletti
-Ben Haim
-Pizarro
- possibly Lampard

[Keyan]

im going to be really upset if kaka decides to leave, but i always said the only way kaka would leave milan is if ronaldinho comes to milan and i believe thats just whats about to happen

Roma eyeing Malouda

Chelsea winger Florent Malouda has been linked with a move to Roma on loan for the upcoming season.

Roma were hoping to land Julio Baptista but his Real Madrid side are not willing to release him on a temporary deal, shifting the Giallorossi's sights to Stamford Bridge.

Malouda has struggled to secure a place in the starting XI since signing with the Blues in July 2007, so the Londoners would probably be willing to loan him out to the Italian side.

The Frenchman is seen as a replacement for Inter signing Amantino Mancini as they share the ability to float out wide in Roma's 4-2-3-1 system.

Roma captain Francesco Totti had warned earlier this week that his side needed to bring in no less than two star signings to compete with the likes of AC Milan, Internazionale and Juventus.

Reports have suggested another possible option for the Italian club could be Atletico Madrid's Jose Antonio Reyes

It wouldn't be a bad move, giving me up for loan, but i really dont see what about Malouda caught their eye exactly.

Deco chose Chelsea for Glory

Portuguese international and Chelsea signing Deco says he turned down offers from Saudi Arabia and America in order to play for the Blues.

Deco says he made the move to Stamford Bridge from Barcelona at the start of the summer in order to win more medals.

He said: "If I wanted to go somewhere for the money I wouldn't have come to Chelsea.

"There were many other places that offered much more money, the money I wanted I could have gone to Saudi Arabia or the United States.

"It's not about the money. Obviously money is important but not that important, I have plenty of money, more than I need, so for me I wanted to go to a place where I could have better objectives and to still have this challenge to win games.

"If I wanted money I could have stayed in Barcelona - I had two years left on my contract, which was a lovely contract.

"It was a sunny and lovely place to live but I want to have new challenges, more objectives and the will to win more trophies - and that is why I came to Chelsea. If it was for money I would have gone somewhere else."

iv read alot about Deco these past few days and he seems so happy to be at Chelsea.
