Deco - Too old????!!!!!Premier League Chelsea by mickmcmillan **Beasley, Adam AND Whittaker must go** (U11978567) 30 June 2008 Chelsea will get 4 good years out of Deco who is one of the best playmakers about, he doesn't rely on pace so he has nothing to lose apart from wear and tear as he ages.

However Using Nicky Butt as the perfect example is a horrible horrible statement because butt actually is a clown. The best example will always be scholes who is still performing at the top level.

But, at chelsea he will have a physical and pacey squad around him to create the space and time he needs to pick the killer passes. After all scolari wouldnt buy him if he didnt know how to get the best out of him.

IF RONALDINHO IS AVAILABLE GO AND GET HIM BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE, CHELSEA CERTAINLY NEED HIM MORE THAN OLD MAN DECO, SHIP OUT SHevchenco, Wright-Phillips,Belletti,Anelka,Pizzarro, Sidwell, Ben-Haim and Malouda..Bring in Ronaldinho, Robinho, Queresma, Silva and Benzeama or Villa.

goleooo (U7165378) posted Jul 9, 2008 Chelsea does not need any more midfielders. It seems to me the chelsea fans are simple idiots who like to play football with names. Don't you people understand that with Ballack and Essien the midfield is fully operational. Now we got Deco, ok that's great, he fits better with both of them than the lonely boy Lampard does. SO why do we need ronaldinho? Only because you want to read names? Names don't win you anything boys and girls. Look at the national team and the overated players like Lampard.
