Jose Mourinho has said Florent Malouda will probably be his last signing of the summer.
Chelsea's Premier League challenge last season was hindered by a series of injuries to key players and Mourinho was expected to bring in a number of new faces to safeguard against something similar happening again.
He has added Steve Sidwell, Tal Ben Haim, Claudio Pizarro and Malouda to his ranks, as well as recalling Glen Johnson from his loan spell at Portsmouth.
Although he has not ruled out doing more business, Mourinho thinks his squad is already in good shape for the start of the season.
"The market is open and when the market is open you never know," he told Sky Sports News.
"But I don't think so. The squad is very good and we have at this moment alternatives.
"We have the protection we didn't have last season for some positions when we were in some trouble with injuries.
"I think it is more than enough the squad we have."

but deco is already 30.
diego from bremen might be a good choice.

This is quite expected as Sidwell, Ben-Haim and Pizzaro are all free transferred. Mourinho might have spent his entire transfer budget on one perticular player

They don't need anymore players lah... They got so many star players in the squad already... And i belief this year Ballack will come good... and Shev also if he stays.
They are still the team with the experience star players... That is more important than some up and coming youngsters... Experience matters... They are still the team to beat.
