Prema MastreeHi there Luka well I think as for me the right decision is for you to stay at Tottenham Hotspur than going to Chelsea, you have the skills and you are very potienal player is Spurs so just stay in your current club and move when the time is right. I read about your profile of your being a player of the year in 2004 and I am proud that you have achieve semrthing for yourself. As for Chelsea I am so sorry to say that I do not liek them and they are very show off. If you want to transfer I would say Liverpool or Manschester City. You are still young and have a wonderful long career so think wisely before you want to move to another club. I see that many player are left in the bench and not playing most of the game and I do not want to see you get hurt. So please think about this transfer to Chelsea and wish you all the best for the begining of the EPL. Keep up the good work and do your best at Spurs. God Bless You Take Care Prema Biggest Fan From Malaysia
