Phil's Ron to something

The buck-toothed wonder could be on his way to Chelsea

Looks like Chelsea won't be short of top notch players next season. The arrival of Big Phil Scolari and his likely signings has even knocked Croatia's 'shock' victory over Germany off the back pages.

For the record, the Croatians beat the favourites 2-1 which makes us feel slightly better about England getting knocked out by them.

And slightly worse, knowing that we have to face them again in the World Cup qualifiers.

However, back to Stamford Bridge where Phil and Roman and everyone can start playing Fantasy Football for real.

Horse-faced legend Ronaldinho played under Scolari when he coached the Brazil side, and he's vowed to resurrect his career is Big Phil signs him.

Ronaldinho was 'plagued by injury and personal problems last season' according to the Sun but Roberto de Assis, the midfielder's agent and brother, said that it was all behind him.

'At the moment Ronaldinho is taking a complete break at home in Porte Alegre.

'There are options for next season and obviously he knows Scolari very well and they have enjoyed great success together. We’ll see what happens but my brother will be ready for next season.'

Barcelona are rumoured to be willing to let the player move on for around £20m and his salary is expected to be around £120K a week.

Also likely to jump ship from Barcelona to the Blues is Deco.

The player is rumoured to have visited Roman Abramovich yesterday. That means next season, we can expect to see Ronaldinho and Deco. In the rain. At Stoke.

Who says the Premiership is dull?
