Well, I\u2019m not sure they\u2019ll want him, but if they do, we should be sending him there as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<h3>EXCLUSIVE! Chelsea contact former Blues player for shock return to the club this summer!<\/h3>\n<p><em>If you enjoy Chelsea News coverage and want to see more of it, add us as a<span> <\/span>preferred source on Google<span> <\/span>to make us a favourite and see more of our<span> <\/span>content.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Not only is he just not good enough overall, his attitude seems to stink the place up like many of the other Chelsea players right now. He lacks concentration and awareness when he\u2019s defending, and if an offer came in for him I\u2019d be selling right now without any hesitation if I was the Chelsea owners.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m sure we\u2019ve amortised enough of his expensive price tag now so we don\u2019t lose any money on him when we sell him, and maybe we even make a bit, who knows?
