well I was hoping that after SWP and a few of the others not playing that often that players would realise this. But Ballack is a perfect example that this isnt going to be the case if they throw enough money at them.

Wages up front as well, what a joke.
In midfield they have
Lampard
Gudjohnsen
Ballack
Essien
Geremi
Manchini
Robben
Duff
Cole
Shaun Wright Phillips
Makalele
IMO that is ridiculous

Chelsea have to agree to let them go. They bought them for a reason (either to play or so they dont play for others) so they arent likely to agree to it.

yes but if you own the players registation there is nothing they can do, if you want to hold of them.
I hate chelsea don't get me wrong but if you can afford it why not buy them so no one else can and 130,000 is a week is not all that much when you think they got him for free.

LMAO Ballack isn't even that bloody good 
As for Shevchenko... £37.5m you are seriously having a laugh 
He is quality but worth no more than £12m ish IMO, 29 years old etc

Lampard Awesome
Gudjohnsen Rubbish and not even a midfielder!
Ballack Not as good as he is made out to be
Essien Crap £26m 
Geremi Not good enough for Chelsea, there for the ride
Manchini Crap these days
Robben Would be better if he could stay vertical 
Duff UTTER GOB SHITE unless he is playing for Ireland, NEVER worht more than £6mish IMO They paid £17m
Cole Quality yet neglected
Shaun Wright Phillips Was signed PURELY to stop Arsenal using the Vieira proceds to buy him
Makalele Quality if perhaps the most uninteresting footballer ever to walk the planet lol
IMO that is ridiculous
All IMO

Yes, he is good but he is not as good as people are making out ie. £130k per week (which equates to what, a £20m transfer had they had to pay?)
