My biggest complaint about the Chelsea game in Philly last season.
Only Terry, lampard and Drogba came over to the sidelines after practice to sign.The rest all buggered off when Mourinho called time.
In direct contrast to United, who sent their entire team over to the walls to sign.
Lets hope Kenyon has his head out of his arse for this one.They're supposed to be promoting the club, not showing them off as primadonnas.

At the Real Madrid practice in LA (which non-seasons tix holders had to pay 15 bux for I think) the big guys kicked it around for a few then left leaving the reserve guys on the pitch for the remainder. Almost no interaction with the fans. Not sure what JM would do with his practice if people were paying to watch it. Probably worth a shot at getting a shirt signed but it is probably a long shot.

What are the odds of getting anything signed by the players even if they all come over to sign.

I was at 2 of the Rutgers Practices. Kids were able to meet the players as they walked back to their buses, & practically the whole team signed for them

Chelsea looked ridiculously good in practice. Mourinho worked them super hard ESP considering the temperature was almost over 100 degrees. Also it was funny how much Shaun Wright philips looked liked Freddy Adu both in Physical appearance, and playing style. I had to do a double take for a second to make sure Chelsea wasnt trying to smuggle Adu back to England!

This is the information she got.
For anyone interested in going to the Chelsea (or Milan) practice on Saturday, YOU MUST call the stadium to purchase tickets, as the ticket windows will not be open tomorrow.

I'm going to have to disagree with that completely. The ball to duff for the first goal was great and he was always causing trouble on the wing. As far as I remember Adu had two long range high and wide shots and pulled back a Chelsea player (good call btw) to almost get open inside the box. He didn't cause that much trouble for Chelsea.
