According to SkySportsNews, Chelsea‘s bid for Victor Moses was turned down recently, but are expected to make an improved offer shortly.

Moses is 21 and had his best season in the Premier League last term scoring six goals in 37 appearances. Moses played a huge part in Wigan’s revival towards the end of last season, and became such an influential player on the wing for Wigan.

I do have to wonder whether or not he would want to come to Chelsea at all. It’s obvious that Di Matteo has a choice between playing Hazard, Mata or Malouda on the left at the moment.

With the pursuit of Hulk not looking like it would end anytime soon, and rumours of a bid for Hatem Ben Arfa in the offing, Moses would surely come into the squad as cover.

That’s the problem these days at the big clubs though isn’t it. Look at Adam Johnson at Man City. Used as a bit part player at City, he could arguably start games week in, week out elsewhere and that would be the situation for Moses if Wigan accepted an offer from Chelsea.

Hopefully with the fact that Chelsea are involved in plenty of competitions this season, with the number of games we will have in a week switching between competitions, Di Matteo can convince everyone in the squad and potential signings that they will play a big part at Chelsea this season.
