Yes. . . . . . . .He won trophies!

ROTFLMAO

Chelsea and Liverpool have had bids accepted for Glen Johnson.

I wonder who made this stupid decision. It makes no business sense bidding £17.5m for a player we sold for £3m. Why didn't we insert a buy-back clause? GJ used to make one mistake per game when he was at Chelsea and that hasn't changed. Abi Chelsea don tire for Bosingwa?

Bosingwa is on his way to Bayern Munich.

To all those eyeing Franck Ribery here is bad news

In response, the FC Bayern Munich AG board of directors has issued a statement setting out the facts:

1. There has not been any resolution made by the FC Bayern Munich AG supervisory board relating in any way to the subject of selling the club’s player Franck Ribéry.

2. The procedural rules governing the transfer (sale) of a player by the FC Bayern Munich AG board of directors do not require the prior approval of the supervisory board.

3. The FC Bayern Munich AG board of directors has unanimously resolved not to offer the player Franck Ribéry for sale.

City and Chelsea head queue to sign Tevez

[b]Manchester City and Chelsea are the favourites to sign Carlos Tevez after he decided against signing a lucrative new deal at Manchester United because he ''wasn't the most wanted person'' at Old Trafford, according to his advisor Kia Joorabchian.


United chief executive David Gill had been in discussions with Joorabchian, with the aim of keeping the popular Argentina forward. But, despite the offer of a five-year contract that would have made Tevez one of the highest paid players at the club, the 25-year-old has decided to leave.

According to Joorabchian, Tevez ruled out the prospect of moving to Liverpool as a mark of respect to United fans, but appears interested in the possibility of joining City or Chelsea.

Joorabchian told TalkSport: ''We ruled Liverpool out because of the competitive nature of Manchester United and Liverpool. He has a lot of respect and a lot of love for the fans of Man United and I think he would rule Liverpool out as being the biggest competitor.

''City and Chelsea probably would be the two clubs that are on the table. City have obviously been in contact with us. I've spoken to (City executive chairman) Garry (Cook) and to (manager) Mark (Hughes) on several occasions.

''We haven't talked to them about a contract, we haven't talked to Chelsea either about that because we've respected the fact that Carlos is a Manchester United player.

''Without getting into the point of whether he's going to City or Chelsea or wherever, the issue is that I think Carlos wants to go to a club which has real ambition, a club which is showing intent, a club which he can help achieve great things.

''City have shown a lot of ambition with the players they've brought in in the last year or so, and Chelsea are also showing a lot of ambition - they want to win the Champions League. Both have that ambition.

''What is important is Carlos is very happy in England. He's extremely settled down, his family is in very good shape here, they love the country. He wants to stay here.

''He's basically given away with the two European clubs that have come to him. He hasn't totally disregarded the option but he's put it down his pecking order and I think he'd want to stay in the Premier League.''

Joorabchian insisted the decision to reject a five-year deal at Old Trafford was not down to money so much as the fact United left it so late to put an offer on the table.

He said: ''I don't think it's correct to say 'his face doesn't fit'. He was very much a part of the Manchester United team the last two years but clearly the last one year he's been very disappointed.

''I think he's been even more disappointed that it has to come to the fact that the loan deal finishes.

''If it was, let's say, Wayne Rooney's contract finishing six months before, or Cristiano Ronaldo's contract finishing six months before, would they have offered a better deal to them at that time or would they have tried to secure their services a bit sooner?

''He has that little bit of a feeling that maybe he wasn't the most wanted person at United. Rightly or wrongly, that's how he feels.

''I personally think United made a fantastic contribution to try to secure him with a last-ditch offer but I think it was a little bit too late and there wasn't enough time for Carlos to think about it.''

Joorabchian admitted his client would be leaving Old Trafford with a heavy heart.

''I think Carlos is not happy, he's a little bit sad,'' he said. ''He's had two years at club and enjoyed two great years. They've won two Premier League titles, one Champions League title, one Carling Cup in his time and he's quite sad.

''They didn't really give him any offers for two years. Over the duration of two years there was a lot of talk about signing him but we never actually got to the point of actually receiving any offers for him.

''The offer of Manchester United was a very good offer. It came about 10 days ago. It was the loan price of £9million plus the final option price of £25.5m. They made him a good contract but Carlos needed time.

''I want to make it very, very clear: we never ever at any time asked them for more money, or any kind of money - never at any point during the last two years.

''Even after they made their offer we never asked for more money. We never spoke about that. I think Carlos just felt over the last two years they hadn't made the effort to sign him and he needed a little bit of time.

''I think they were under a time restraint with all the situation that was going on and we couldn't get there in time.''

Tevez will now take some time to consider his options, with Joorabchian expecting a decision to be known by the first week in July.

And there will be no future issues with who owns the player's rights, with the next deal set to be a permanent one.

Joorabchian added: ''The Premier League have changed their rules now when you do make a transfer it has to be a permanent transfer. All his rights will be sold, all his economical rights will be sold and he will belong to the club that he will play for.

''Pre-season will start somewhere between 9 and 12 July. He will have to start wherever he starts by 11, 12 July.

''So, by the first week of July, there will be a decision made, a contract signed and a club announced.'' [/b]

chelsea thus have an edge

@Dayo.

Bayern don't want to part with Ribery and they want Bosingwa. . . .
No Ribery. . No Deal

Glen Johnson . . ?


@Ibime.

I heard FIFA is serious about enforcing the 6 + 5 rule and that's why we are running after a handful of English players.

Nateevs,

You think say we be mates?

Aside money from your sugar daddy watch Ulli, Kalle and Rummenigge talk to him and he moves over.

For some reasons Chelsea dont seem to want Bosingwa in their squad thereby romancing other right backs Johnson, even Maicon self.

Ribery aint going nowhere if you want anyone Lucatoni is available moreover Drogba would be missing games

Chelsea have signed 18 year old Cech goalkeeper Jan Sebek. We should also look at signing the Serbian U-21 keeper as back-up to Cech. The boy is quite good.

That doesn't excuse crap. Anyway, lets hope Liverpool win the race for his signature. We all remember Glen Johnsons defensive frailties.

Surely you must realise there is a difference between the name [/i]Cech and the [i]nationality Czech.

folks

We are kinda quiet on the transfer market? Is it down to Kenyon's inefficiency or we are simply bidding our time?

No signing yet. All the signings for chelsea have been on the dailies and press. We need to lay out some old legs and bring im more world class player not above 27yrs.

TRANSFER NEWS:

1st signing.

Chelsea have secured the signing of Daniel Sturidge. Though a tribunal is going to decide the final compensation fee. City want to rip Chelsea off (£10m) while Chelsea are looking to pay no more than £3m.


Guess we'll meet in the middle and pay around £6m. Whichever way, good signing.

Me thought it was free as his contract will be ending in June. But I guess because he is under the age of 24, so now Bosman transfer. Can't Chelsea wait till he is out of contract?

MC is trying to rip Chelsea off. 

This sturridge guy is he that good?
What position does he play?

a striker and a winger ,

Reports coming in suggest that Chelsea have signed Portuguese Bruno Alvez for £24m. .

reports from where ? ur doorstep ,

Link plssssssss

Y didn't you ask for a link when I talked about Sturidge?
