On a free. Thats an absolute steal. Always rated him as a keeper, and surprised how long he stayed at chelski since the arrival of cech.

will be on massive wages,but is better than that other buffoon they have had in goal.hope they go down still but doubt it will happen

He is the perennial sub goalkeeper, like Stuart Taylor & Steve Harper.

Carlo Cudicini has spent pretty much his whole career on the bench, he might get a run in the Spurs team every now and again.

Felt sorry for him when he was finally a first team keeper, and good for Chelsea only for them for bring in Cech. The latter is better, but Cudicini did nothing wrong.

dunno why he don't play for England

Because he's Italian   :eek:

qualifies on residency does he not?

Probably, but he's Italian and probably feels the same :)

Disagree Rich, I think he'll play every game he's fit for Spurs.

FOC, that is an amazing deal.

I dont think he will.  Gomes has improved massivly since his clown spell. He's one of those keepers though, he can make saves that very few others can, but is always likley to do something a bit mental.

He'll certainly go straight into their team, depends if they sell Gomes or not.

This free transfer could well be the signing of the season for them.

I fuckin hate spurs. I hope they go down.

Chimbonda as well.....i fear for the sanity of Harry Redknapp..cant see him keeping Spurs up and there is going to have to be an almighty clear out if they go down...Cudacini was on £55,000 a week at Chelsea so he wasnt in a hurry to leave,top keeper though.

Nearly 30m on rightbacks in 3 years. Haha mugs

It's quite interesting that Redknapp has gone for two players that Ramos ditched in Defoe and Chimbonda - Robbie Keane next :D

ditto

Would also add that harry is a wanker. The way he has gone about getting his transfer targets is totally out of order

Really? I thought he kept net for them for a good couple of whole seasons before they signed Cech?

He has been on the bench for about 3 seasons though. Probably faced with the decision of staying there on £60k a week and appearing as a sub/in league cup matches, or transfering to Derby and get relegated on £20k.

Yep he did. However, he's 35 and outside of Chelsea he only played about 50 games in Italy and in 9 or so years at Chelsea he only started about 50% of their league games.

I stand by my statement :)

sounds like a pretty cushty career if you don't mind keeping the benches warm in return for a handsome paypacket.

i thought he was one of the best keepers around when he started regularly for chelski.

Yep, when the Russian chap bought Chelsea the one area they didn't really need to improve was in the goalkeeper department as Cudicini was playing well and was popular. In fairness Cech's done well.

Apparently Capello inquired of the FA if he could pick the likes of Almunia and Arteta, because they qualify by residence and aren't wanted by their own countries. He was told not to pick them.

Arteta is the most over-rated midfielder I've ever seen.

Fucksake dave you ruined it that was nearly your last 3 posts i agreed with

What was the other one after Peacock?

Cudicini being first choice

Quality.

I also believe recreational drug taking is good fun and like the occasional beverage.

Hope for us afterall dave .

It's amazing that all the plastic Arsenal fans want Spurs to go down, who would have guessed?

Also that all the plastic Spurs fan don't want them to go down.

I also hate arsenal if that helps

I don't really give a fuck about them.
