Rumour mill: Chelsea offer SWP swap deal

CHELSEA have reportedly offered Shaun Wright-Phillips back to City in a deal that would see Blues starlets Micah Richards and Daniel Sturridge move to Stamford Bridge.
Wright-Phillips has failed to settle at Chelsea and spent much of last season warming the bench. A nightmare year for the little winger was rubber-stamped when Sven-Goran Eriksson chose to leave him out of England's World Cup party.
Chelsea paid £21million for Wright-Phillips, but Jose Mourinho is prepared to offer the player back to City in return for cash and the two players, claims the Daily Mirror.
Pearce, who tried to get Wright-Phillips back on loan in January, would be reluctant to lose highly-rated youngsters Richards and Sturridge.

I should hope not, as much as I would like to see swp back, It wouldnt be at the expense of our 2 brightest prospects, we should try for a seasons loan instead. ;)
 
Indeed. Richards is quality. Bit disappointed by Riera and Musampa leaving. Whilst Riera did have a habit of fading out a bit during the second half, I would've liked to see us keeping him on loan for another season. Let's hope Pearce has some ideas up his sleeve or next season will be pretty depressing.

I know....tbh there hasn't been the cull that I expected/hoped for he has basically sent back 2 loan players and got rid of a few fringe players. How the hell Sun, Mills & Thatcher got new deals I'll never know :evil:
