    *Out-of-favour Chelsea wingers*Florent Malouda*and*Yossi Benayoun*have been handed Stamford Bridge lifelines after*Roberto Di Matteo*revealed he expects the duo to stay at the club.Malouda and Benayoun have both been tipped to leave west London this summer after peripheral roles last season - Malouda made just 11 Premier League starts, while Benayoun was sent out on loan to*Arsenal.QPR and Premier League newcomers*West Ham*have both been linked with bids for Benayoun, while Malouda, who appeared for France at Euro 2012, is rumoured to be on the radar of Brazilian club Vasco da Gama.The arrivals of Belgium sensation*Eden Hazard*and Germany international*Marko Marin*will see competition for attacking places grow even fiercer next term, but Di Matteo believes Malouda and Benayoun still have a part to play.He said: "They're all part of the squad, and they all contracted with Chelsea and I expect everyone to be here at the start of pre-season and the season. Then we'll monitor and see what happens."Di Matteo also refused to disclose whether the club were in talks to sign Porto forward Hulk, who admitted last month that he would relish a move to the European champions."I'm not going to discuss our targets," he added. "Every time we say something the price goes up!"

    I'd take Benayoun, not Malouda!

    Agreed, Benayoun has always been underrated imo.

    I've always rated Malouda, he's unfortunate never to have really been a first-choice but, given a chance and played just off a main striker I think he'd be ideal...

    If Tarbs goes then I think Benayoun would be an ideal replacement both have flair.
