Mutu Granted Work Permit

Last updated : 15 August 2003 By Rich Godden
Romanian international Mutu has had to wait just a few days to receive his work permit, showing how little thought was required into his application. He's a superstar already!

Chelsea also report that William Gallas has been in full training again since Sunday- is this a hint that he will start against Liverpool?

And Bolo Zenden, Mario Stanic and Celestine Babayaro are also back in training. None are likely to play any part on Sunday, regardless of injuries.

So, who will start then? Well, Carlo will be in goal. The defence should lineup with John Terry, William Gallas and Wayne Bridge. Will Mario Melchiot return to the side though?

Midfield- your guess is as good as mine. Did anyone else actually envisage Seba Veron playing on the right wing on Wednesday? Duffman should start on the left though, with Geremi on the right. Lamps and Veron would get my vote in the middle.

Up front I would like to see Adrian Mutu partnering either Eidur Gudjohnsen or Jimmy.

Think you could pick a better team? Tell us all about it on the Chelsea Mad messageboard, right here!
