Chelsea At The World Cup

So here is a list of the many players going to the World Cup in Brazil who are either part of the first team squad, out on loan or in one case, certain to b pulling on Blue next year.

Some players are in 30 man squads so their place is yet to be confirmed but they have at least made it this far (Sorry Ash)

Thibaut Courtois - Belgium


Defenders

Cesar Azpilicueta - Spain
David Luiz - Brazil
Kenneth Omeruo - Nigeria
Gary Cahill - England
Patrick Van Aanholt - Holland

Eden Hazard - Belgium
Andre Schurrle - Germany
Christian Atsu - Ghana
Victor Moses - Nigeria
Jon Obi Mikel - Nigeria
Mario Pasalic - Croatia


Forwards

Fernando Torres - Spain
Samuel Eto'o - Cameroon
Romelu Lukaku - Belgium
Diego Costa - Spain


On Standby

Those watching at home who will be refreshed for next season

Petr Cech, Branislav Ivanovic, John Terry, Tomas Kalas, Nemanja Matic, Marco Van Ginkel, Mohammed Salah, Kurt Zouma

 

Who's Palasic mate?

I'm going to keep my eye on Omeruo and Atsu!

 

Hasn't officially joined but is said to have agreed deal a month or two back, from Hadjuk Split I think for about 3m.

You guys are going to be cheering on Brazil, then?? You have 4, wouldn't mind betting you have at least one more to add to the squad by August!! And as I have said on another thread, Chelsea are hugely popular in that country!!

 

As much talent as Spain generates- and after a number of off seasons for Torres, it's surprising he still gets called

Three Nigerians... and Belgies too!

Chelsea fan's 2nd teams?

 

England every time mate!

Usually when England go out I like to watch Brazil.

 

I hope all the fancied teams take a tumble before the QFs. That's my dream so someone like Chile, England or an African team make the final!! It's a dream and won't happen! Sadly!!

 

Yes would be nice to see someone other than Spain, Germany or Brazil win it to be fair!

 

Don' really want France to do that well as they are as dull as dishwater!!!

 

Fancy Matic not being selected !!

 

Serbia aren't in it mate

 

Good work

But, Nando has as much as chance as Cole. Why would you bother to put him?

 

We'll be nackered before the season starts!

 

Will certainly be watching Belgium with interest. If the tournament was in Europe they could be a real dark horse. What a group of players they are gathering there.
