I, personally, do not think that Chelsea needs more players from outside. They have enough talent in their current roster; they just need to manage it more effectively. Chelsea was very close from grabbing their 3rd consecutive EPL titles this year too. Obviously, Sheva and Ballack were two big disappointments for them. However, I think that the injury on Joe Cole was the biggest disappointment of all. He is one of the best English player, if not the best. Sheva is very likely going back to AC Milan. Ballack may hang in there and finally replace Lampard - after all, he is far more talented than Lampard. Chelsea has a great future ahead if they can retain Murinho, Essien, Terry, Drogba, Robben and Joe cole.
