I'd be indifferent to Ballack. If he comes and does a job, great. If he doesn't, fine. I would prefer a younger player, who we'd be able to get longevity out of. But wouldn't really turn down the chance to have him.

Could be given a role which would show us all why he was one of the worlds best.
Still in great shape and showing no signs of slowing down, could be a great bit of business.

Used to love him when he was with Leverkusen knocking united out of the champs league but he's 32 now and he'd be coming for the money. Classy but don't want to sign players towards the end of their careers, no matter how good their record.

Ballack agrees new Chelsea deal
<a class="postlink" href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/c/chelsea/8075671.stm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/footbal ... 075671.stm</a>
Chelsea midfielder Michael Ballack has agreed a one-year contract extension and expects AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti to arrive at Stamford Bridge.
Speaking after Chelsea's FA Cup final win over Everton, Ballack told BBC Sport: "I haven't signed yet but I have agreed for another year."
Ancelotti is the favourite to succeed Guus Hiddink, who stepped down after his side's Wembley victory.
Ballack, 32, added: "It's not done yet but it looks like he will be coach."
The former Reggiana, Parma and Juventus boss will make a decision on where his future lies once the Serie A season ends on Sunday.
Chelsea need a replacement for Hiddink, who is returning to his job as Russia coach after capping a successive four-month stint with the Blues by winning at Wembley on Saturday.
They have been in talks with Ancelotti and Ballack feels the 49-year-old Italian would be the right man to take charge, adding: "I haven't worked under him and I don't know him very well but you can see from the work he has done at Milan that he is a successful manager."
Ballack, who is captain of Germany, joined Chelsea from Bayern Munich in May 2006 and would have been a free agent this summer.
He has won two FA Cups in his time with the Blues but bigger prizes have eluded him and he believes he has unfinished business in west London.
"You always want to win something you haven't won," added Ballack. "Next year, the focus like always will be on the Premier League and the Champions League."

so much for him coming, looks like he has agreed a contract extension.
However, I have brought up a thread about him before and I really rate this guy, only problem is Lampard occupies the role he truly fits in, and has to play a lot deeper role than he really likes. Jut look at how he plays for Germany and How he played for Bayern. He is a quality quality player, will add experience, fiestyness in our midfield.
I for one would love for him to be here, but looks like he is not coming...

We need another list but with real consequences this time. It's amazing how many supposedly ITKs were completely and utterly wrong last time but appear to have lost no credit with their flocks!
