Lets be aving you! 0 Posted July 9, 2013 Is this all based on one dodgy-looking photo, or is there any actual evidence for this signing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReadingCanary 0 Posted July 9, 2013 The photo is a man who looks like Schwarzer (probably him) sitting in the Chelsea press room Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 3,633 Posted July 9, 2013 Schwarzer is a good fit for them, if true - probably looking for a decent club for a season or so to keep him in touch esp with the WC coming up, he has just come through a full season for Fulham and is more than capable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ReadingCanary 0 Posted July 9, 2013 Associated Press photo now up of Schwarzer with some Chelsea bloke at the training ground.Just need the Chelsea confirmation and that''s a load of our mind ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grif 0 Posted July 9, 2013 Makes more sense for them I think - experienced back up that will cost them nothing.Glad we rejected their advances (if this proves to be true).Ruddy needs to stay and continue to excel for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chicken 0 Posted July 9, 2013 It doesn''t mean anything even if he does sign.It will mean two keepers on their books. They might think they need three. Depends on whether Schwarzer is happy being 3rd choice or perhaps battling for 2nd choice with Ruddy for one season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Move Klose 303 Posted July 9, 2013 schwarzer wouldnt go as 3rd choice in a world cup year, probably get carling cup games and few fa cup and european games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lavanche 0 Posted July 9, 2013 And with this move everyone can now clearly see what was planned on Ruddy''s neck. Second choise keeper until Courtois is ready to come back and take responsibility. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
