Season Preview – Chelsea Fan

Are you pleased with your summer transfers?
So far yes, although I do feel we need another Striker or Winger, depending on the system we plan on using.

Who would you still realisitically like to sign?
David Villa or someone along that standards.

What is your teams main strength?
That we can switch between systems with ease and have the players to be able to play Pretty football, hoofball, or counter attacking tactics, the current crop of players can switch between them and that should give us an advantage. Also the fact we have a new manager and the players seem to be playing witht he air of confidence we had under Moruinho.

Who is the weak link in your team?
Possibly our rightbacks, Bosingwa is new to the Premiership, Belletti is caught out at the back a bit and Ferreira can never decide wether he’s class or crap.

Where do you think you will finish the season?
Either 1st or 2nd

Is your manager the right man for the job?
I’ll tell you once he gets a few league games under the way, but out of the choice we had for manager, He probably is.

One to watch?
Franco Di Santo, amazing technique for a kid his age, decent height and great ability and knows how to score, look forward to seeing him in the first team this season.

What would be the highlight of your season?
Winning the league.

Chelsea Midfielder To Complete Southend Switch

Chelsea midfielder Anthony Grant is set to complete a two year deal to Southend after impressing on a previous loan spell.

Southend manager Steve Tilson said – “We’ve been talking to Granty and are expecting him to come in and sign for us.

“We obviously had him with us on loan towards the end of last season, so we know what he’s about and it’s a good signing for us.

“He can play in a couple of positions as well, which helps when you only have a small squad like we do.”

Chelsea Player Completes Switch

Chelsea forward Ben Sahar has signed for Portsmouth City on a 6 month loan deal after impressing for Sheffield Wednesday.

Sahar signs for Pompey!

Sahar joins former Reading star Glen Little into Fratton Park, which could see the end of FA Cup hero Kanu after he refused to accept a new one year contract.

Would Portsmouth fans like to see more big name players heading into Fratton Park as they look to seal their way to UEFA Cup group stages? Are Sahar and Little the players to move Pompey in that direction?

Have “Dithering” Everton Lost Out On Superstar?

Russian star Arshavin has become hot property amongst Premier League teams after back to back sensational performances which clinched his side a place in the Semi-Finals.

Arshavin was key to Zenit St. Petersburg’s sucess in winning both the Russian Premier League and the UEFA Cup, when he caught Everton’s eye in the group game at Goodison Park. The Russian had made noises that he would welcome a move to Everton and applauded the club for their sportsmanship which kept Zenit in the tournament who eventually went on to win the trophy.

The local press in Merseyside also confirmed that Everton were interested in the player and could possibly line up a £10m deal before the European 2008 tournament got under way, but no such deal was agreed between Zenit & Everton FC.

Despite being suspended for Russia’s first two group games no club made a move for the attacking midfielder who had been told by his club he would be able to move on should he want to try his hand in another league and face a new challange. Due to sensational performances against Sweden & Holland in which the player scored in both has seen interest from some of Europe’s biggest clubs such as Arsenal, Chelsea & Barcelona.

Whilst the players Agent has confirmed any deal from Barcelona would see the playmaker join La Liga, have Everton missed the boat on the latest superstar by not agreeing any potential deal before the EURO’s?
