    I see we just signed this lad (another striker<doh>) on a five year deal! Anyone seen him play before? Is he any good? He'll most definitely go out on loan for a year I'd assume.

    Wow, he does have a dig! First goal was absolutely class! Won't get that space over here though. I always ignore youtube vids though as I think they can even make Titus Bramble look world class but I do have to admit, this guy looks good, excellent finisher.

    Yep strikers in abundance! We need to see more of Josh!!! Can't believe he hasn't played yet, I was expecting him to feature later on in each game. I've got a sneaky feeling we're going to get Moutinho not Modric, don't know why just a gut instinct :D

    OH and yes with Mata - perfect debut! Made two mistakes the whole time and one of them created his own goal. Looks so composed and just what we've been missing out on left wing for a long time, can't wait for Sturridge to return and take that right wing position and carry on what he did pre season.

    With Cech, Luiz, Sturridge and a potential CM to come in, not looking too bad is it :)

    Davila looks to be play left/central midfield and not as a striker. Right footed shooting from the edge of the area and ball on the floor rather than the aerial threat a striker would have. Another one in the pot to claim Lampard's position. I don't believe anyone at Chelsea seriously considered Benayoun as a challenger to Frank, but used as injury cover and rotation when we have midweek games. The new twentysomethings are the ones who can be first team next year. I read somewhere people believe Davila will be loaned to Vitesse Arnham this season anyway, as he is a non-euro player (which may point to a Yossi exit though). I'm certain Josh is still very much in future plans. We now have four young prospects for attacking midfield (Kakuta, MacEachran, Romelu and Davila). I consider Ramires and Mata the finished article. I do not think Chelsea can reliably count Essien into the future. I feel he will have it all to prove when recovered, and will need to keep out one of these four youngsters.

    He's going on loan to Vitesse for a year.
