Scolari has only signed Deco since succeeding Avram Grant but the Blues boss has always had his sights set on Robinho.He added: "Robinho is a very good player and it is not only me that wants him, all the coaches in the world do too."But at the moment what is happening on the pitch is the only important thing for me."For my players to play well against Tottenham is what matters." Another very boring transfer saga that seems to have dragged on and on. I think it is inevitable Robinho will sign for Chelsea in a matter of days.

We hope that he'll join us at Chelsea.“Phil Scolari identified two targets when we appointed him as manager. One was Deco and the other was Robinho."Everyone has seen the impact that Deco has had on the Premier League.“I think the squad is capable of competing without Robinho but with him will give us an added dimension.” I really hope this is true. It would be a great addition not just to Chelsea but to the Premier league. If Robinho joins Chelsea, they will have the best squad of players the premier league has ever seen, but the big question is can Scolari make them the best team?
