Deco will do well at Chelsea, and I'm starting to think Drogba is gonna stay.

Cech pens extension to stay Blue until 2013
http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/st...ngland&cc=5901Petr Cech has signed a new five-year contract with Chelsea.
The deal, which keeps the 26-year-old goalkeeper at Stamford Bridge until 2013, was completed late last week but announced as the team touched down in Guangzhou, China, for the pre-season tour of Asia.
The Czech international arrived in the summer of 2004 from Rennes and has made 115 appearances in four seasons with the Blues.
Cech has played a total of 166 games in all competitions - recording 90 clean sheets - for Chelsea and was thrilled to extend his contract.
'It is an honour to be at a club like Chelsea and I am very happy to have renewed my contract with them,' Cech told the club's official website.
'Chelsea has grown in my heart, not just because of my team-mates and all the people that work for the club but also because of their fantastic fans.'
In his first season with the Blues, Cech was awarded with the Barclays Premiership Golden Gloves, as he set a new record in top flight football for not conceding a goal in 1,024 minutes and for the most clean sheets (21) in a single Premier League season.Comment

Terry still haunted by penalty miss
http://msn.foxsports.com/soccer/stor...-penalty-miss#Chelsea captain John Terry says he is still haunted by the penalty miss which saw his side lose out on the Champions League to Premier League rivals Manchester United.
Terry slipped on the newly-laid Luzhniki Stadium turf during the Champions League final, and the England defender was left devastated.
He said: "Every morning I wake up, that's the first thing I think about. I am still so desperately disappointed about it.
"But I am a big man with a big character and it is now down to me to deal with that."
Terry is hoping the new season, under new manager Luiz Felipe Scolari, can help the players move on from their disappointing 2007-2008 season where they closely missed out on European glory and the Premier League title.
He said: "I'm certainly looking forward to the new season so I can wipe away that bitter disappointment for the club, and especially for me.
"I am absolutely determined to win the Premier League, have another go at the Champions League - in fact I want to win as many trophies as possible.
"That's the aim of our new manager too and he's already impressed that on to everybody's minds."Comment

Glad that Essien resigned, he's a very good player and has saved us on occasions, (Arsenal twice, Valencia.)

Boulahrouz joins Stuttgart on a four-year deal
FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) - Khalid Boulahrouz has completed his transfer from Chelsea to Stuttgart and signed a four-year contract Tuesday with the Bundesliga club.
The Netherlands central defender was released Monday by Chelsea and arrived in Stuttgart's training camp in Austria shortly before midnight after passing a medical exam in Stuttgart.
The deal between Stuttgart and Chelsea was completed Tuesday. Details were not given.
The Dutchman played for Hamburger SV for two seasons before going to Chelsea in 2006. He was loaned to FC Sevilla last season.
Boulahrouz is expected to replace Portugal defender Fernando Meira, who is leaving Stuttgart but has yet to sign with a new club.

now that Maka left, John OBi Mikel will have a better chance to shine, the kid is only 21 years old. If only Mourinho didnt turn him into a defensive midfielder. He's naturally attacking mid. He needs a couple of chances. He's like an african version of Zidane. Im feeling that 4-1-4-1 would be solid for chelsea
----------------------Cech----------------------------
---Bosingwa------Terry--------Carvalho--------Cole-----
-----------------------Essien---------------------------
-------Kalou-------Deco------Ballack-------J.Cole-------
-----------------------Drogba---------------------------
With Obi-Mikel coming off the bench sometime for Deco. and Possibly a wing switch with Sheva or Anelka (whoever comes off/goes on)

This is assuming he leaves. If however he does not leave, i would simply take out kalou, move Cole to that position, switch Deco out onto Left Wing and bring in Lamps to be in middle with Ballack.Originally posted by radin119 View Post
