Who from Liverpool would......

As Maureen prefers brawn over brain it seems, im not sure Alonso would get into the Chavski side.
Gerrard would, Carra would have a chance, Finnan would walk into the team, Could also argue they havnt much of a left side, and they havnt officially signed cole yet, so Riise or Aurelio? at left full.

Cech's better than Reina.
Terry's better than Carragher.
Ashely Cole's better than any of our left backs.
Joe Cole is better than Pennant.
Robben is better than Gonzalez.
Shevchenko is better than Crouch, Bellamy, Fowler, Pongolle, and Mellor combined.

Ashley Cole isn't a Chelsea player, yet.

Carra and Terry are different types of centreback and would in my opinion make a great paring.

[Don Quixote]

Depends on the formation but Gerrard, Alonso, Riise, Carra, Finnan and Reina are all in with a shout.

Riise isn't if Cole signs for them.

Good post.

Stevie, Carra, Alonso and maybe Garcia...

Alonso and Gerrard would WALK into their side. I can't believe anyone thinks that the Chavs have a player who is fit to lace Xabi's boots.
Mourinho would swap ANY player in his squad for Alonso, thankfully, that'll never happen.
Personally I think Momo is better than Makalele, I think Maka is over-rated.

I think there's a fair to middleling chance of Auerlio making it into chelseas first eleven. its widely known that the brazilian was their number one target for the left back berth this summer. but fortunately for us rafa paid an associate to hire an upmarket knightbridge rentboy to distract the special one during vital contract discussions. duly distracted by the job at hand, rafa moved in to seal the deal and pull off the biggest coup this transfer window. well thats my view on the situation, spiffing job rafa. three cheers for rafa hip hip hoorah.

The think is that playing Makelele you don't need another midfielder to perform defensive duties. Alonso is not at that level of positioning of defensive awareness (although he made massive strides last season).

I think overtime Alonso will become a better option but right now Makelele is peerless in his position.

I think I would take Xabi but Mourinho likes the two non-holding midfielders to be quite dynamic. For all his many virtues, Alonso isn't and therefore would not fit the Chelsea system. Gerrard on the other hand would be perfect.
