The Chelsea Daily Drivel - Monday 7th June 2010

""A few years ago I would have thought he would go to Arsenal, but now that he is 28 he needs to go to a team that – with him or without him – will succeed, in order to put pressure on him to deliver performances. At Arsenal there are younger players and you need to talk to them, surround them and have a positive attitude around them.”

In Joe’s current situation he needs to push on. He doesn’t need to help the others, he needs a club to help him discover his best levels once again. Therefore, I would say Manchester United""

""People had to get to know me and get used to the way I am. And I needed time to show what I can do. I came into a squad that had won a lot of titles with José Mourinho. To arrive in a team that has had great success but was on a down period, people expect a lot from you. I had to be patient. You know, I had five managers here and each time at the beginning they were trying things before I had their full confidence. I am really happy it is happening now and people can show me that love and affection the same as my team-mates.

Now we are in a situation where the team needs new players, and wants to bring up players from the academy, where there has been big investment in really talented youngsters, It is a kind of transition. And if we do it well, I really believe we can make a big dynasty and maybe be the next Manchester United.""

"People often forget how good Petr is. Playing for the top teams like Chelsea mean there is always great scrutiny placed on goalkeepers, any mistakes attract a lot of attention but again he has been incredibly consistent. His number of clean sheets is testament to that."
