Hello lads and ladies (if we have any),
As aron left us for some time I thought I will try my best to keep this site lively.
So I will bring my weekly questions back to this site and hopefully we can have some nice discussions along with it.
So this weeks question is which signed player is your biggest let down and suprise?
The biggest suprise for me probably is Azplicueta as I didn't know much about him and look what kind of the player he became for us.
The biggest letdown has to be either torres or Shevchenko but as the latter didn't get a lot of chances to shine it has to go to MR (always miss) Torres
Thx for your time and don't be scared to share your views

Biggest let down for me is Torres as well :)
He was so good at Liverpool, and I really liked him (and still like him). I was delighted to see him at Chelsea and pretty gutted when he failed with us. I truly wish him all the best.
Biggest surprise for me would perhaps be Willian. I thought of him as skillful attacking midfielder, the kind of player that destroyed us in the CL :-P
So I was very surprised to see him as an energetic, hard working player. I never would have imagined his style of play in a Brazilian attacking player. I love him now, and I think he sacrifices a lot for the good of the team. In spite of what many on this site think, I believe he's an integral part in our team.
Good post, LRDlt :)

Id have to agree with you on the biggest surprise, azpilicueta has been one of our most consistent players and has got us out of trouble on many occasions, coming from Marseille he was relatively unknown but has proved to be a great find. Biggest down for me has got to be de bruyne not Torres (scored in the champions league semi final against barca to make what would have been a very nervous last few minutes, some of the most enjoyable in my time as a Chelsea fan)de bruyne came with so much potential and could have been a great player for us had he stuck it out, seeing him do so well in the bundesliga makes it even more of a let down.

Biggest let down is Mikel. I have watched him for years and always thought he would grow into a real force as he aged. However he just sat at the sane level. Huge shame. Biggest surprise is Branna, he came from nowhere to save our season ans has been consistent since. every year I think we could replace him then every year he pulls out another winning season. a proper Chelsea warrior.

BigPhil I was thinking to nominate Branna too, Branna and Azpi were those superb cheap buys
