number 10? thought he was 7?

Probably don't have any number 7 training tops out there.

Well spotted. Was that actually official though, or was it people making assumptions?

Assumptions I reckon.

Jovanovic was handed number ten and he is now pictured behind cole wearing number 11 so Cole must have asked for ten cos its his usual number

And because he wants to follow in Voronin's footsteps.

Who are the two blonde lads in these pics?

[Shaggy]

Second one's Dalla Valle, dunno about the first.

Lauri Dalla Valle in the 2nd picture. Is the 1st one Stephen Darby?

[Reece]

Actually is the first one Irwin?

[Shaggy]

Definitely not Darby.

Ta. He looks a bit different but I see it now.

[Parr_Zee]

Actually, I think its Stevie Irwin gone blonde...

[lancinleeds]

Checking numbers on official site 36 is Irwin, 48 is Bruna...which doesn't make sense?

[Shaggy]

Haha, that is 100% Dalla Valle and couldn't look more different to Bruna, who is little and orange with dark hair.

Does my head in listening to people talk about how he couldn't get a game at Chelsea... They played a 4-4-2 with Lampard at the top of the diamond! Lampard is the curse of English football IMO-- he is a good player for the club, but as a teammate, he truly soaks up the space for attacking midfielders.

Also, I can see why Cole was behind Malouda on the left, but I never understood why Kalou got more games than Cole. Once fit, I think Cole was probably the third best attacking midfield option at Chelsea (behind Lampard and Malouda, assuming Essien is a holding midfielder) and should have been utilized far more often than he was. I feel like I never saw him play in the League in the last two years and I watched Chelsea a lot. Not that it hurt their winning, but he was kind of wasted there...
