    Hello Blues, just a quick question. Have you heard anything about Carvalho coming to us (QPR) on a season long loan? And if so, do you think he would be a decent signing for the year?

    For the record, by decent, I don't mean "is he good enough to play CL footy?", I mean, "is he good enough to help us finish 17th or above?".

    Thanks for answers in advance. District Line around? I trust his answers...

    Carvalho and G*llas in at their peak were probably the best two defenders I have ever seen play for Chelsea. I haven't watched him at Real but what he does have is experience and he reads the game very well, that's something you don't lose with age. He does make the odd error these days but even at 35 or however old he is, he'd still improve any team outside the top 6 IMO.

    To put it simply with him and Dawson at CB there is no way I could see you finishing any lower than 15th <ok>

    I second that, Carvalho is real class. Not quick anymore, but would be a good assett for you.

    Thanks guys, I know you won't have seen him play all too often for two years, but just thought I'd ask anyway <ok>

    But, you know, it would be silly to leave it on a good note. *arrgh* *bile* *hatred* *rivalry* etc etc

    Nice to see Ricky back in the Prem! He'll get a big cheer when you come to SB!

    He'll put in some good shifts for you. maybe not 40 games but 20 games this season.
