I think Chelsea have locked themselves into a very expensive way of running a football club although of course they can afford it. Any young upcoming player would be mad to go there now.

Also, if Chelsea buy Roberto Carlos, then I truly think Mourinho has lost the plot. Their full backs could do with upgrading, but Roberto Carlos is not the solution.

You're right about the back line. Not been the same since Desailly. I really loved seeing "The Rock" back there. Boy was he smooth.

There's really no reason to bring Roberto Carlos or his type. They need more of an Eddie Pope. :)

I hope Mourinho does buy Carlos. He is still a great player. However, we don't really need him. The present Chelsea team looks formidable with or without Carlos.

Hopefully, we can finally lift the Champions League cup next season. It will be great for Terry, Cole and Lampard to have something to go with their World Cup winners' medals.
