So Chelsea's transfer ban has been suspended.

Not like no one knew it was coming.

essien, drogba, obi mikel, kalou out = huge blow
J.cole is back, Zhirkov should be fit, Malouda fit, strurridge is decent, Ivanovic is in good form.

I don't think it is a big as deal as people keep making out, it will be interesting to see though.

Liverpool are a disgrace... having to cheat to salvage a draw against Birmingham at Anfield

Btw, Chelsea verse Hull, Sunderland, Birmingham and Burnley in January - they'll be fine

The writing was on the wall the second he sold Alonso.

Although Rafa has been fucked ever since the 'facts' rant. If AC Milan do not collapse in Instanbul, he is out of a job a good two seasons ago.

exactly; and the transfer ban has been suspended..hence we can buy Brazil's future midfield/forward in Santos Alex Teixiera and that 19/20 yr old Fabio Coentrao from Benfica.

BAHAHAHAHA at Liverpool; i guess its welcome to Europa League for them.

one correction to this...the 3RD name on your list doesnt count as a huge blow. Mikel will only ever get sub appearances as long as Essien is playin at the base of the diamond formation.

Seriously, how is Mikel going to compete with Essien, Ballack, Deco, Lampard, Belleti, Zhirkov, Joe Cole, (M. Woods, Matic..quite young) for any of the midfield positions? :D

re: The Official Football Thread

you're right, mikel is a sub as long as essien is playing, but what happens if essien out and there is no mikel fill-in?

as Roy pointed out, chelsea are playing relatively easy teams during that period, but those are precisely the games you do not want to lose.

15 of the Gunners go out to international duty.

I hope all of them come back safely, the last thing we need is some of our players getting hurt while they are in fine form.
