And do you know why no one wants to buy him

"according to an executive at Barcelona. 'There is no other option. He has been offered to us, Milan, Inter and Real Madrid. Basically all of the big clubs. But none are interested. We are the same as those clubs are, we're looking for a player who is more creative and has a greater technique than Lampard. So it looks like he will go nowhere."

And you guys keep saying he is better than some, just imagine if Stevie was available, i can imagine the rush for his siggy

guess the truth reveals all

GOONER 89

why do you want to know, We didn't get him for FREE Like you "osho free lovers!!"

GOONER 89

Yeah right

Someone who was second string at Inter and moved to Almighty Newcastle   I see him turning down the Chance to play in the CL, I think he might eventually return back to Italy if Juve come calling.

GOONER 89

Razorr beat me to it (and you say i love Chelsea )

Well its not the signing i expected (or wanted for that matter) but i guess Wenger is up to his "i will turn him into a star!" stuff. Oh well if he can do it with others, you all better watch out for this boy.

At least he is a proven poacher (even if Croatia is not exactly a league i would reckown with) but lets see what happens here

Still would have gone for proven quality, a la Tevez, "Le sulk" or the one Kit loves to hate OBAGOAL

At least it shows that Wenger is working (Comon Grimandi we need you oh!! Le Prof cannot handle these transfer stuff )

GOONER 89

heard you guys want Defoe

Now that would be a BIG JOKE

I am sure if it happens, you scummies will now say, Jermaine is a "World Class" striker

Hey if Heinze goes, you guys can cope. or just get another left back, at least Defoe should be cheap (Spuds should do you all a favour and give him to you all for free, cause you guys won't be getting Berbatov )

GOONER 89

And like i said, it seems Torres is heading to the Scousers;

http://football.guardian.co.uk/News_Story/0,,2114541,00.html

That leaves only Tevez and Hunteerlar

GOONER 89

Roman just wants Chelsea to win the Champ League, i mean is that too much to ask for all the money he has spent

WICKED CHELSEA

GOONER 89

@ Wormy

I agree with whatever you say Roamn wants Jose out, and if Jose doesn't get the CL this season, then the relationship is over

So razorr get ready to pack your bags and follow your sweetheart in case Roman sacks him Take a cue from Real where the Presiodent sacked Capello

GOONER 89

Jealous that you got FREE FOOD

please explain, who is jealous of that (apart from the teams those players left to join Chelsea)

I mean what is Sidwell going to suddenly do say his secret magic word like SUPER TED!?

GOONER 89

Oboy

No be like that oh!! I really wouldn't break a leg to get Martins, its just that people keeping asking if we have gotten him since we are looking at options from Newcastle (and i would rather have Martins than Owen)

But Anelka over anyone , it seems Wenger considers Martins as someone he can work with (but ACN worries might make him not put in an offer, as Sheyi will also be unavailable during the ACN period as well)

Anyway! Martins would be better than signing "NO ONE" No that would be a disaster

By the way

You and Razorr need to call a truce, cause believe me, you both won't quit.

And we don't need this "No retreat! No Surrender!!" to get to the 20th episode

GOONER

@ Jackal

Well remeber that a major reason Ronaldo stayed was because of Carlos Quieroz, the same reason that a french speaking player would jump at the chance to join Arsenal (and leave when he becomes a star ).

The reason folks like Tevez had a hard time at first (apart from Pardrew being a shyte coach ) was because of the Language thing, same as Reyes at Arsenal, remember these Spanish guys are "Softies" and really find it difficult moving or settling down in another country,

so as much as your assertions are right in terms of which club have a better chance of success, i do feel Torres (or his agent) would still believe he will have a better chance of settling down quicker under a Spanish coach, who will make him the star of the squad, rather than go to Le Arse (where RVP will let him know he is now in charge) or Manc (where Rooney will do the same).

At Liverpool he will have no competition.

GOONER 89

@ I-MAN

well seeing that you are inbtw the "Sun" and "Times", how would you even know what goes on in your thread cause if you did you would see that i was answering a question that Jackal asked!!

Then again, i can't get rid of your new found need to "Quote me" left right and centre Oh well! Some things just have to be tolerated.

GOONER 89

SEE TEMPTATION OH!!

@ Muyeskin or whatever your name is

Listen i have been in a  good mood for a while, avoiding "Nitwits" and "silly battles" around the thread so as not to get pissed off by folks that can't define "Sarcarsm" even if there was a dictionary infront of them.

Listen "Hombre", you really do not want to go down that route.

Just go and renew your Arsenal membership before you throw curve balls or better yet (and far cheaper for you i would think) enrol in an "English" teaching class.

@ Jackal

I still say that Torres (If he does come to the Prem in the first place)would rather sign for a Club with a Spanish Coach and Spanish players than go to a place where he would need an interpreter (does Torres speak english )

As for the money, did you forget that they have AMERICANS TOO If they get rid of Bellamy (and maybe Crouch) believe me Benitez will force the Yanks to cough up the dosh (even if he has to assure them that, thats all he is going to spend) And if the money is there, No arguement; Torres will be at the Pool. Anyway, like i said, (which you agree with), Hunteerlar is a better return for money.

GOONER 89

What Arsenal needs is for the Coach to get his head out of his Arse and sign a new deal.

Which "Top" player is going to want to come, if the Coach is not even sure of being around when the season is over

Wenger- Hey "Star Player" i want you to sign a 4 year contract with us
Star player- 4 years!? Blimey Boss are you going to be around then
Wenger - Err! I ain't sure,
Star Player- So why do i need to sign a 4 year deal if you aren't even sure you will still be here
Wenger- Just sign and shut the Bleep up will you

Yeah i really see us getting 2 strikers

Wenger is now the issue, he should calm down the storms, depending on who we get will let me know if Wenger will stay.

Anelka, Babel or Martins (even Hunterlaar) = WENGER IS STAYING
Owen, Ogbuike, or any other young runt = WENGER MIGHT LEAVE

GOONER 89

P.S. As for the frowns, don't worry the smiles will be back when you guys (Nani and Anderson included) come over for your recommended thrashing at the Emirates on Saturday the 3rd of November

Err Razorr, Babel

Anelka wants to leave Bolton (not necessarily to come to Arsenal) and i bet you Hunterlaar would jump at the chance to play in our team.

Concentrate on looking for "free" players and building a "Love nest" for Grant and Jose. Since thats what keeps Chelsea occupied these days.

GOONER 89

Why do you scummies keep thinking Torres will come to Manchester, when half his family are up at Liverpool

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/europe/6239286.stm

Doh!? Spanish Coach = Spanish players!!!

I Repeat if Reyes (Part 2) decides to come to England, he would rather go to where he can settle down faster and find good "Tortilla joints" (with his Spanish mates @ the Pool) than come down to eat "Beans on toast" with Wanye, Rio and Gary.

GOONER 89

Please is there any thing Arsenal related that doesn't mention; err whats his name again

Seems Babel ain't coming, neither is Tevez, (Ribery was a pipe dream as is Malouda) Now i hear Chinedu Ogbuike is on the list WHY!?

Does it take forever for us to sign Anelka or do we have to consult his Imam. Obagoal!? Is he still talking with the Police at Panti station?

Heard Reyes might be offered to Atletico, couldn't cvare less if he was given to sharks. Flamini should be sold now as well, how long does it take for us to SELL THESE GUYS OFF!!

Pre Season is starting soon, so the sooner we round up our deals the better

GOONER 89

"don't be bothered.its just kitaun doing what he knows how to do best."

@ Jeje

Is it me or where is anything related to sports in that statement

Stop being evasive   If we all can wait for Wenger to trade in the market (and its taking forever) we can endure this "Love wan tin tin!!" till it bears fruit. WE ARE ALL KEEPING TABS ON THIS (Denial or not @ Kit )

GOONER 89

@ Jeje

How come you know what kit does best please can you fill us in on other things (you know) he knows how to do

@ kit

Oboy wetin dey happen wey u never let your boy know oh!! I go vex for you oh (dey leave your pal in the dark)

@ Gunners

9 months is not that far, we will soon see what materialises here and i ain't talking about Arsenal

GOONER 89

Arch enemies

Difference is Akola

Everyone feels/felt Henry is/was a "Muppet" for ever saying what he said, or getting involved in stuff that doesn't concern him You won't get any Arsenal fan praising Henry over his David Dein stance. But like jackal alluded to, you Chelsea guys are always divided into camps

1, Roman apologist
2, Jose a@@ lickers
3, Any other person that seems relevant at the club, be it Kenyon or who ever.

I didn't see the Arsenal board interviewing Managers while Arsene was still in the middle of a season, but Kenyon was jetting round the globe pleading with folks to take the Job, or you want to deny the links to Klinsman or Guss Hinndink. And you think that is "NORMAL BEHAVIOUR ".

Henry is a Legend at Arsenal, but he will always be regarded as a Muppet for suggesting David Dein's departure was one of the reasons why he left. Wenger should/might still sign, so adding his name is a bit premature (besides Wenger has always left it late to extend his contracts, so nothing new there) Does Jose even know whats in his contract, or Roman hold his documents/passport like a "Brotel Madam holds the documents of her Prostitutes"

GOONER 89

@ Somze

I was only responding to Razorr's concerns

And isn't that meant to say; "Roman will deal with your troubles!", cause at least the Arsenal supporters have a say in our takeover stuff, and the Mancs made their feelings known during theirs, what exactly do you Chelsea fans do apart from waving flags, given to you by ROMAN

Oh well!! as Dbanj would say "NO LONG THING!!"

GOONER 89

Anyone buying Torres will just be getting another Reyes, These Spanish striker guys might look skillfull on the Telly, but they can't really hack it in the Prem. The Midfielders are ok, a la Xabi Alonso, Fab or Arteta. But the strikers are shyte

Huuntelar is young and can learn to fit into any team play, he would be devastating with Rooney (far more with RVP though ) and will be willing to work with the team and leave his ego behind, Torres is another Henry waiting in the wings (and i ain't talking about the skill) He will feel he is bigger or better than most of his colleagues (which ever team he plays for) and can you honestly see him settling down in England.

He would have a better chance at the Pool, cause the Manager is Spanish, Xabi, Pepe R and Garcia are there and even Mascherano as an Argie is a Spanish speaker. I believe if Torres comes to blighty, Pool would be his first choice, as he could settle down quicker, and be the star of the team (well apart from Stevie Boy ).

GOONER 89

@ Jackal

i am not sure they get it (maybe Razorr to a little extent).

Chelsea is a Mirage under the whims and caprice of a Russian Oligarch!! Like someone said, Jose just inherited what the former manager had put in place, and exploited it to get results (Wenger did the same thing at Arsenal so nothing wrong with that).

But the issue is, most of you supporters tie your allegience to the club based on Jose M, what will happen when/if he leaves. Mancs might not be ready to contemplate Fergie leaving, but at least who ever takes over will have something to build on, same with Le Arse, but Chelsea is like Fulham, run by one man, and it ain't the coach.

granted Roman seems to like the club, but shudder to think what might happen if he gets bored and jets off! Then Chelsea will be like Leeds

Jose's ego is not even small enough to be contained in his brain, do you all really think he will eventually love this Grant guy telling him which players he needs or doesn't need.

Jose is a proud man and i doubt he will get along with this "Facade" when stuff starts going wrong again. I mean what would happen again if Peter C ran into a wall and fractured his head again or if Drogba broke his knee in the process of doing his "sliding goal celebrations" or Micheal Essien getting so fat he can't run around anymore (is it me or is the Negro adding weight ) or Lampard thinking he is playing for England while wearing his chelsea jersey!? I mean all these stuff are probabilities.

Anyway, lets see how Jose copes with this new Roman addition to the "Soap Opera" that is Chelsea FC (More Emmerdale than Eastenders).

GOONER 89

@ Akola

was that picture taken during the Pen shootout btw you guys and Liverpool during the UEFA CL semis

@ Somze

Ok then, we will see how Arsene responds in 2 weeks time or if Fab is playing for Arsenal when the season starts, afterall, the Henry issue has come and gone.

The difference with ours and your case is; WHO RUNS YOUR TEAM Don't you think for once that Roman should stop interfering with Jose's work, cause if Chelsea fail, who gets the blame; YUP JOSE!!

GOONER 89

Here we go again

Razorr if you were a guy, you would be a polygamist

GOONER 89

@ Dason

ENGLISH!! SPEAK ENGLISH!! DUDE

Akola do something about enrolling some of your colleagues in night school

@ Razorr

How does Jose leaving help you i don't understand you Chelsea folks sometimes

GOONER 89

I didn't know you were a dog

Is Akola your Master

GOONER 89

Problems

Ok oh!! Watch how Arsenal handle the "so called problems" in the space of a months time before the season starts, where as yours is just starting

Oh well as you say; "Maureen is BIGGER THAN YOUR CLUB"

Thank God you realise that your club is small (Your words not mine).

Anyway, good luck with trying to keep all the "Chefs" happy.

GOONER 89

p.s. Razorr i don't do the "SUN"

Now people

Who exactly is in charge at Chelsea Cause i doubt anyone knows Does Maureen even know?

Is it Roman A (well its his club and his money)
Or Peter Kenyon
or Bruce Buck
or Frank A
or could it be this new guy Mr. Grant
or Jose Maureen is in charge

Wow!! you Chelsea guys love to do stuff in an amazing fashion, who would think that "Too many cooks will not spoil this brew!!"

GOONER 89

"Please tell me which team did Fergie take to the world cup, he was only accidentally and shortly a manager of the Scottish team due to the death of the then coach."

@ Somze

"Scotland manager Jock Stein had suffered a fatal heart attack. After the death of Jock Stein, Alex Ferguson was handed the role of manager for the World Cup."

"Ferguson was briefly Scotland manager following the tragic death of Jock Stein in 1985.

His tenure lasted just 10 games, during which time he took charge of three matches at the 1986 World Cup in Mexico, against Uruguay, West Germany and Denmark."

"After the death of Jock Stein in 1986, Ferguson stepped in as Scotland's caretaker manager for the World Cup in Mexico. Turning down the chance to take the job full-time, Ferguson instead accepted the challenge of replacing Ron Atkinson at Manchester United".
