I just did a quick check and only Frank Lampard and John Terry have played more minutes for Chelsea than Gallas this season. As of late Mourinho has opted to go with a Terry-Carvalho central defensive partnership moving Gallas to right back and Carvalho has done well but that isn't the only reason that Gallas doesn't start at centre back these days. You have to consider that Mourinho would rather start Gallas at full back than the inconsistent Ferreira. It doesn't make sense having either Gallas or Carvalho on the bench when you can start both of them and for the record I have already stated that Carvalho is a better than Gallas but it doesn't make sense saying that you would prefer the Portuguese centre half because he's not for sale, Gallas might be.
i agree with Stuart ...i definitely wont be less than happy if Gallas arrives ...he is versatile and quality and having him in the team is an upgrade.

how much is chelsea asking for him anyway?
Gallas will be out of contract in the summer so we would be able to acquire him on a free transfer. If you're looking to rejuvenate your defence it doesn't get much better than signing Sagnol and Gallas on frees.

zambro canna gallas sagnol ...this is even better than any other teams on paper .
Exactly. That's one hell of a back four and with Emerson and Vieira infront of them we would be near impossible to break down.

"I have already stated that Carvalho is a better than Gallas but it doesn't make sense saying that you would prefer the Portuguese centre half because he's not for sale, Gallas might be." Never said i wanted Moggi to buy carvalho instead of gallas..if u do see where i said that please let me know cuz i need to meet a shrink :(

I'm portuguese and i read and see mourinho's interviews and the reason why carvalho sat on the bench at the start of the season was because mourinho and carvalho had a row

Gallas is not free mark already explained his case

IMO,Gallas is no way near Andrade's skills (check some Depor games ;))
"As for Gallas at Boumsong's age, who really cares?" what i said was "About Boumsong..if u think he messes up,u should have seen Gallas at his age" i'm not saying go for Boumsong,what i said was that i saw william make lots of mistakes in the past so i think boumsong is gallas v2 (he'll learn to focus at the cost of his mistakes..)
"right now William Gallas is a solid defender whereas Jean-Alain Boumsong is mediocre." totally agree but solid ain't world class and i only want world class at juve ;)

"You have to consider that Mourinho would rather start Gallas at full back than the inconsistent Ferreira." So Paulo Ferreira is inconsistent? if u said he is not good in the air or that he seems to be shy to attack i'd agree..but inconsistent? LOol i'd go for injured,but that's just me :D i follow chelsea more than i follow juve (the portuguese media obviously prefers to focus more on mourinho and chelsea's games where portuguese play,than juve's) so i think u got all the wrong ideas about mourinho's choices

You said that you would prefer Carvalho to Gallas IIRC and yes, Ferreira is inconsistent. Sometimes he's good, sometimes he's not. Carvalho was indeed benched because of a row with Mourinho but do you know why they had a row? Gallas started the first game of the season at centre back instead of Carvalho and the Portuguese reacted angrily to this.

I prefer carvalho to gallas,but that doesn't mean i want to bring in ricardo,only that i rate him higher than gallas :p i don't agree with ferreira being inconsistent..the only big mess up i recall from him is that questionable penalty last year against man city that meant chelsea's only defeat :( other than that i think ferreira is a pretty good rb but everyone has his own opinion :D I know why they had a row and it was not about Gallas starting instead of him :disagree: it was a verbal fight involving IQ insults :tdown: a shame for both men actually
