Three Chelsea Players Who Should Be Offloaded In Chelsea Summer Clearout

Chelsea may be fighting it out for the Premier League title this season, but reports coming in say that Jose Mourinho is looking to offload more than 10 players from his squad.

Those who are listed in the article are John Obi Mikel, Ashley Cole, Hilario, Mark Schwarzer, David Luiz and Josh McEachran. Gael Kakuta, Victor Moses, Ryan Bertrand, Romelu Lukaku and Marko Marin are also named. The three that I want to talk about though are Fernando Torres, Demba Ba and Samuel Eto'o who are all also on the list. Here is why they should be given the boot.

1) Fernando Torres

Torres has lost his pace, lost his touch and struggles to make any real impact when he is on the pitch. He is simply a waste of space in my eyes. His goalscoring record has been poor since he arrived in west London and I think he should be sold.

2) Demba Ba

I'm not sure what Ba offers Mourinho. He hardly features, and when he does he rarely takes the chance he is given. Chelsea need one top class striker to lead the line, and I am afraid that Ba will never be that player.

3) Samuel Eto'o

The African striker has been the most impressive of the three as he has scored 11 goals this term, but he is ageing quickly and his legs look to be letting him down. He's poor in the air, struggles to link up with those around him and for me offers very little.
