Chelsea are the strongest team in the epl.

ment to add that malouda will probably play before­ Zhirkov, especially at start of season till zhirkov­ settles

look to have the best squad and probably the best­ starting 11 this season and they are sarting with a­ manager that is acomplished in club management. I­ disagree with the starting 11 here. I think Essien­ might play the sitting role after seeing how he played­ sat out wider. then Deco or Ballack would move to the­ right until Cole is back. I also dont think Bosingwa­ will leave so he will start which evens up the side­ with a.cole on left. These are the changes I feel­ should happen anyway.

Id like to see maybe a right­ sided midfielder come in or maybe a young player to­ eventually replace lampard and as always I want Aguero­ but Im happy with the squad as is!

Looking at chances­ of 1st in league and runs in all other cups, especially­ CL.

use this formation for me .petra ceach, bosiNGWA, a.­ cole. terry, carvhlo, micheal essien, ballack, lampard,­ malouda,drogha and kalou.reserve.hilorio, invonic.­ alex, mikel, yuri and anelka.

Nice to see the optimisum but remember this time last­ year it was all scollari this scollari that, 4trophy­ season blah blah blah, Any real fan shouldn't be­ expecting much this season since CA has just taken over­ the management job and will need time to work his magic­ unlike what they did to Grant, Scollari and Renieri, It­ took SAF 6years at United to win the league and look­ what he has won since he has become the most sucessful­ manager in the world ever, Congrats 4 winning the­ shield but don't be expecting much more otherwise­ this time next year you could be singing the praises of­ yet another manager.

I think Chelsea will do much better. The only thing­ Scolari's regime lacked was intensity - the players­ lacked puff to play the big games. Once Hiddink came­ and upped the intensity, things came into place.

All a­ Chelsea manager has to do is make friends with­ Abramovich, Terry, Cech, Lampard and Drogba, and make­ training sessions high-intensity. He will then have­ enough quality to deliver minimum two trophies a­ season. According to the Chelsea website, Ancelotti has­ done all that, and it was evident in the Community­ Shield too. So I'm sure Chelsea are set for the­ Premiership, Champions League or both.

chelsea wins premiership this year
