Gallas is leaving because they wont play him at centre back, his favourite position. if he is their first choice defender behind teryy why isnt he getting his game ahead of carrvaliho?
|
Gallas is a versitle defender who can play in central defence as well as wing back. With Babayaro leaving for Newcastle and Wayne Bridge out for the season (along with Paulo Ferrera the DR), Gallas was forced to play as Left back. Chelsea ARE definately buying a top class LB in the summer, once that happens Gallas will return to partner Terry in the middle. |

The only way I could see Gallas leave is if they tell him he has to play left back whether he likes it or not.
Isnt Chelski looking at Dede from Dortmund for LB |

First big transfer of the summer:
Porto have agreed to sell international midfielders Maniche and Costinha to Russian club Dynamo Moscow, the Portuguese champions said on Thursday. Porto will receive 16 million euros for Maniche and four million for Costinha.

There has been contact between Barcelona and La Louvière in Belgium for their and the belgian national goalkeeper Silvio Proto.
He is a huge talent, wouldnt at all mind him going to Barcelona.
You know how hard it is for a keeper to get into a positive spotlight so for a young guy like him allready being linked to barcelona just proves his class.
Barcelona have been following him all season and have scouted him a few games too. May 12 his manager was in Barcelona to talk about the transfer. Barça wants to buy him and let him play with a a smaller spanish club (in the first league) for one or two seasons. |

No he wont. CM bought carrvaliho for 20 odd million, when you add the porto factor into it he will not stick him on the bench in place of gallas.
Chelseas first choice back four is
ferria - carrvaliho - terry - bridge
Gallas wont make it into that team, not at CB anyway. He has even come out and said he wont play out of position and will consider a move.
I get the info off people i know, not excactly sure where they get it from but its usually accurate. |

Ever heard of competition for places ? The idea behind having 2 world class players for every position (which is what the Chelsea squad is based on) is so that players train hard to compete for places. The chelsea back four is not set in stone. Yes, Carrvaliho was bought for a heft price (but that's only because he was sold to Chelsea - he's not actually worth that much).
Gallas will stay at Chelsea because next year he will be in the CB position with Terry. Carravalho will also be there, rotated into the squad as Chelsea will be competeting at all levels. Gallas has stated he will not play LB forever, but he's still done a good job at that position this season. Jose will keep him because he realizes just how versitile Gallas is.
Gallas isn't leaving Chelsea anytime soon, and next season he'll be playing alongside Terry in the heart of the defense backfour. ;)
Oh...and your football sources suck ! :p |

personally i think Carvalho is better than Gallas, at centre back that is.From the Chelsea games i watched this season Carvalho played like a don and made one fantastic tackle after another. When hes in top form theres no passing this guy. However, not to many defenders have the ability to play as good in all positions like Gallas does and therefore, as Kytracid said - chelsea will do everything to ensure he stays.
Back to topic .... newcastle have been heavily linked with Owen of late. Itl be interesting to see if he wants to play for an Inter Toto cup team though although I expect the geordies to be a helluva lot better next season with Souness at the helm.
Ferdinand to madrid sounds like pure B.S . Rio owes it to united to stay after the faith we showed in him by sticking to him during his missed drugs test unlike chelsea who not only kiked mutu out but tried to press claim charges against him as well.
Now that the relegation battle has been decided there a lot of good players in all three sides that went down that should generate interst from the bigger clubs namely the likes of Crouch, Quashie and Niemi from S'hampton , Johnson and Routledge from Palace and finally Ashton, Francis, Green and Huckerby fron Norwich. Ashton in particular seems like a star in the making and im sure a big club like newcastle, liverpool or Assanal gonna sign him. |
