Why Chelsea And Daniel Alves Are A Good Fit

1. Khalid Boulahrouz is going to Sevilla, so Daniel Alves can go to Chelsea
2. Geremi is not going to work as a right wingback
3. Essien can be a right wingback, but you don't spend money on a star central midfielder to play him as a defender
4. Lassana Diara is not going to work as a right wingback
5. Only Chelsea can satisfy Sevilla's thirst for money
6. Paulo Ferreira is a LOUSY right wingback
7. Daniel Alves can contribute to the attack when Chelsea needs to chase games
8. Daniel Alves is one of the best right wingbacks on the market, Chelsea needs someone to help them win the Champions League
9. Daniel Alves is not African and he won't be gone for a good part of next season
10. And lastly...Mourinho likes Daniel Alves :)

Chelsea Loans Flop Boulahrouz To Sevilla

Enough is enough. Apparently, Mourinho decided he wasn't even going to give Khalid Boulahrouz the chance to warm the Chelsea bench and has shipped him to Spanish side Sevilla on a year long loan. Boulahrouz was supposed to provide cover at centre-back and left-back but his "convincing" performances led Mourinho to field the likes of Geremi, Essien and Diarra instead.

Good decision Jose. If you can't even field a natural defender as a defender and midfielders have to be used instead, then I guess it is time the Dutch defender moved on.

Khalia, don't feel too bad. At least you will be playing in the Champions League again next season - even if it is on the bench.
