Nice way to treat the man who won you the Champions league.

    Not a lot you can say if he wants to go abroad for an even fatter cheque for his last couple of years.

    He'll finish his career back in France or in a league where he is a whale in a pool of minnows

    Doesn't want to be a whale where he's likely to be going! They have neighbours with fleets of ships who'll be hunting him!! ;-)

    He's getting a reported 300k a week in China. Won everything with Chelsea, he's coming to the end of his career. May aswell!

    He has done his job at chelski, delivered them titles, f.a cups and now the champions league, good sign off, an a quality player to boot.

    Yet I remember seeing him sneak up behind and opponent in the A.C.N and pulling his hair behind the ref's back, and I dont like him for that.

    Would be a great signing for Barca. It showed when they played chelsk they needed a different option.

    Looking at those statistics on the BBC report is amazing. Won 4 FA Cups , 3 League titles , 2 Carling cups and a Champions league.
    Also scored in 8 major finals , say what you want about his diving. But what a beast of a player!
    He scored his first goal against Palace as well.

    £16m a year tax free, probably won't have to train and just play matches plus all the Chinese food you can eat.

    How do I get a gig like this?

    I think it was a mutual decision. He wants to a two year contract and Chelsea only wanted to give him a one year extension so he's off to earn 250k a week in China.

    Whatever you think of him he is one of the best foreign players to ever play in England. A great player.

    I agree with this. He will earn a fortune while adding credibility to the club he signs for and he gets to leave Chelsea (probably the club he thinks of as 'His Club') at the top of his game. Chelsea, actually, had a terrible season in the league, yet he leave a hero.

    Good luck to him!

    I'd be more concerned about the fact that I was only an 'r' away from being a Dogbar in China.
    Anyway,racial stereotyping aside, this was a done deal some time ago apparently.

    Consistently the best striker in the Premier over the past decade. He's won all there is to win over here and now he's a yen for going Japanese .. well, Chinese anyway. Farewell Didier it was fun having you around.
