With just one week before the 2011 – 2012 season of Premier League will start, the teams are testing players, finalize transfers and make their battle plan for the competition.

Chelsea’s new manager is on fire. He managed the third transfer of the summer. After Oriol Romeu (19 years) and Thibaut Courtois (18), Londoners have got to a deal with Romelu Lukaku Belgian (18) from Anderlecht.

The Striker gave 33 goals in 73 games for Anderlecht and already has 10 national selections in Belgium. Chelsea announced on its official site that Lukaku will support the medical tests and will sign the official contract early next week.

According to British media, the transfer of Lukaku will cost Abramovich about 25 million. The Belgian kid is compared to Drogba because of his style and was mentioned by a British magazine like the best young player in the world at his age category.

With all these acquisitions the Blues have to make a good figure this year in Premier League. But they are not the only ones. Manchester United and Manchester City have a very good chance this year also and, we can’t forget The Gunners.

A fact is that City dominated the transfer market and is willing to offer anything just to you have the most important players on the planet. This thing is though something to satisfy their coach, Mancini.

He says that the owners need to bring at least four more players to match the force of Manchester United. Mancini believes that Champions League experience will end his guys physical and ask for backup: “I have 20 players in the squad than I can count, United has 29! We cannot compare now with them.”

Mancini complain that they have players, but he told Bellamy, Onuoha, Adebayor and Wayne Bridge that their service are no more needed for the team and let them prepare themselves at Manchester.

Club leaders are about to succeed a new big transfer. Samir Nasri is increasingly closer to the City, like Sneijder, who seems to get a deal with City. Inter will receive 36 million for him and the player has 6 million per season.

The fact that Mancini is unsecure for the next season shows once again why in football you need the entire team to work and individual talents can’t pull after the entire team.

Liverpool preparing for the next season

Posted by oli on May 11, 2011 None comments

The group that took over Liverpool in 2010, Fenway Sports Group, is confident that they will bring from Aston Villa the player who made sensation, Ashley Young. Americans are sure and the fact that in a few days Kenny Dalglish will sign a contract that makes him the general manager of the club with all the rights.

After having spent over 67 million euros in winter on Andy Carroll and Luis Suarez, they are about to invest 17 million in the extreme player from Villa, despite the fact that United is after him too.

Young is entering in the last year of contract with Villa and is attracted to a move that would bring a substantial increase in salary and he apparently wants to go to Liverpool instead United because it would have a place in the first team on the left lane attack, unlike United who have the Nani, Park Ji-Sung and Valencia,.

Besides the transfer of Ashley Young, Liverpool is interested in Blackpool’s captain, Charlie Adam, Gary Cahill from Bolton and Phil Jones from Blackburn.

Is it enough for Liverpool? Only time will tell.

Posted by oli on April 18, 2011 None comments

After the last rumors from Chelsea regarding the firing of Carlo Ancelotti, news flashed out from each corner about his successor for Abramovich’s team. Ancelotti is reserved in declarations about his possible departure.

Carlo Ancelotti: “I do not know what the future holds. At the end of the season, the club can decide if they want to continue with me or change me. If they are not satisfied, than they can easily change me. This is not a problem.”

The primer subject in replacement at Stamford Bridge is Pep Guardiola, the main target and 1st enemy of Carlo Ancelotti.

Ancelotti will be sacked after the Champions League elimination and Abramovich has set his sights on who created the current Barcelona team.

Guardiola recently signed a 12-month extension at Barcelona. But this won’t stop Abramovich, who hopes to lure him to coach in England, especially as he recently said he will not stay long on the Camp Nou.

Will Abramovich succeed in his attempts? Like all the time, the money will make the difference in my opinion. Keep close for more info’s.
