    Assuming Carlo is ready to go this weekend or the next and Hilario is competent don't need an extra keeper. He is aurguably the 2nd best keeper in the league after Cech, was keeper of the year in the League, either the year before Cech or the prior year.

    There was talk, on Sky?, that we are chasing Buffon along with Man U for Jan., but as long as Cech is going to recover by next year that would be a bad move. If God forbid Cech does not look likely to feature next year than probaly a good move or get Friedal and forget Adu as the token American for the U.S marketing

    If Cudicini were out longer, I'd certainly take Barthez. For all that he's a bit of a clown, he is a pretty good keeper. Since Carlo's back next week, we should be fine.

    We'll find out tomight how much Chelsea need a backup keeper. Hilario, hmmm, is that a name you can trust? But then again, it might as well be Barthezs first name, for his godawful club performances.

    the last this we need is a mouthy dipsh!t who spits at refs & won't go to Israel.

    Are we replacing Stamford the Lion with Barthez the Clown as our new mascot?

    There's a reason Barthez has no club right now and it's not because he's fussy.

    I'm riding the Hilario train all the way to Cudicini junction.
