^ totally agree , if thats the three strikers its like trying to win the PL with your arms tied behind your back .

I know I'm in the minority but I'm gutted he's gone to everton I believe its there gain and our loss . I understand its a good fee that we have got for him but if there's one area that obviously needed strengthening it was up front . Costa , lakaku and torres (only because he's going nowhere) is in my opinion much stronger than we have . he's only young but has proved himself already in the premier league both at west brom and everton , I can't see that he could have done any more . I think if JM really wanted to keep him he could have but for whatever reason he dosnt fancy him as a player . That I could understand if he was replacing him with a proven /quality striker but a 36 year old Drogba (another stop gap) is sadly past his best . If costa gets injured / suspended I can see last seasons problems coming back to haunt us , add to that we dont know for certain how costa will settle in , and if he dosnt hit the ground running ........

The fact is though courtious is under contract , personally I would bring him back . Good problem to have though wont go to far wrong either way.

Surely tony pulis deserved that , he did the near impossible . Dead and buried when he took over.

I agree with you and he formed a good partnership with matic against pool , can consider himself unlucky to not have had more game time of late.

Thats the one james.

Its not bias its an opinion , there's a difference.

Thats right no bias , the ref was fine , even more so when you consider the atmosphere at anfield . We won because we played well and deserved it simple as that .

There isn't any obvious bias against us thats why.

Swansea 1 2 chelsea Willian Schurrle

He was scoring goals in the premier league at west brom.

Very good point. Totally agree.

Benteke out for world cup , hopefully lakaku does well in his absence .

You make some good points and I agree with the majority of it to be fair. If he had stayed it may be that we wernt so desperate for a costa or cavanni . On the other hand maybe he didn't do so well as was hoped we wont ever know now . The main thing I disagree with is that a 20 yr old can dictate what he wants , personally I couldnt care less . If it was beneficial to chelsea to keep him thats what we should have done and just in my opinion it was . I do understand what you and khobar are saying and I can see the sense in it , just be lieve by keeping him here this season we would have benefitted and thats all I care about.
