Robinho To Chelsea Semi officially done.


According to reports, Robinho's deal to Chelsea is already complete. The rumor is that you can now buy Robinho kits in the Chelsea mega store online. But they have now been removed. So a little slip up by someone on the Chelsea website announces a big signing early.

Robinho on his way?

According o Peter Kenyon Real Madrid's Robinho could be on his way to west London within the next 48 hours

During an interview with the official Chelsea website Kenyon is quoted as saying:

'We are ever confident that it [the deal for Robinho] will get done but we have always said it will go to the wire.

'We will keep moving it on and we hope that he will be joining us here at Chelsea.'


He went on to say that Robinho as long with Deco were Scolari's top targets.

My Picks of the week

1. Gerrard Vs. Middlesbrough



Player of the week

Wigan Vs Chelsea



Well after a dominating start to the season against Portsmouth, hopes for Chelsea were very high against Wigan. But it wasn't quite the same result in my opinion. I thought that in this game against Wigan we played a lot like we did last season under Avram Grant. It wasn't the brilliant football that we had seen for the game against Portsmouth. I thought that we played well, but not good enough. I am now declaring Deco the steal of the summer, he seems like he will be a great player for Chelsea, and he and Lampard, Ballack, and Essien will be great. But overall 3 points is 3 points, and we are still top of the league and havin a laugh.

Sooooooooo, should I pack your bags for you?


Two years after joining Chelsea from AC Milan, it now appears that Andriy Shevchenko could be making a return to Italy with a move to Milan. It has been a difficult two seasons for Andriy who has only scored 9 goals in 47 matches for Chelsea.

My View:
It really is too bad that it didn't work out for Andriy, he had a lot of promise when he arrived. Maybe now that he is going back he may be able to resurrect his career. But I can't say I'm sad to see him go.

Chelsea vs Portsmouth in Pictures








Chelsea start off with 4 goals against Portsmouth

What can I say, the samba style is here. Chelsea start off with a 4-0 win and we player fairly beautiful football. First off, I would like to say that it was great to watch, the passing was slick and fast. I thought that Ashley Cole, and Bosingwa played great they looked great coming forward, and added a lot of speed to the game. I was impressed with Anelka, he finally showed some heart and effort instead of lumbering around bitching. To be honest I can't really describe how great we played, it was fun to watch, and we dominated possession. It was a great start to the season.
