Chelsea could be without Michael Essien for the long-term following his latest knee injury and could be looking for a replacement depending on how long the Ghanaian is expected to be out for.

Some quarters think that the Blues may step up their chase for a new midfielder, with West Ham’s Scott Parker, who was once on the books at Stamford Bridge and was voted player of the year by football writers last season.

Despite Parker’s efforts, the Hammers were relegated at the end of the 2009-10 Premier League season and looks set to leave Upton Park, and could leave for around £5m.

Would you want Parker back as Stamford Bridge, yes or no? – Have your say in the comments section below

    The thing is, would Parker want to come back? You can bet your life that if an offer came in from another Premiership club he would take it above one from Chelsea.

    For sure, he was in the wrong pace at the wrong time the first time….

  3. Mitu chakma says:

    Yes, absolutely i prefer to have him back, as chelsea faces many injured problem last season. It will be better to buy him back………..

  4. Johnny says:

    Yes! He’s one of the few footballers that literally kill themselves for the sake of the team. Hard-man, neat on the ball, can pass, controls the pace of the game and scores you goals. What more do you want from a midfielder, and £5m too ? I’m buying him if Chelsea don’t.

  5. Simon Amstell says:

    at that price it would be stupid not to have a player like him. For sure if we don’t someone else will and with Essien’s knee problem could be the perfect solution. Plus it’s another English player.

    haha!! NOPE!! put mikel obi or ramires for essien….EASY AS THAT.
    I know Parker’s a great player but Abramovich is not buying him

  7. J says:

    He wouldn’t come back for a start

    but with (potentially) a centre midfield of Lampard, Ramires, Modric, Mikel, McEachran (who I think should be seen as a legitimate part of the first team squad now) available, would that not be enough cover to finally give someone from the youth a chance? Would’ve ideally said Cork… but Connor Clifford maybe?
