Venue: Outside a London Pub
Weather: A relaxed sunshine afternoon

So, the atomosphere is perfect for small cuddle and a long kiss, and England's and Chelsea's midfielder Frank Lampard took the full advantage of the pleasant situation and enjoyed a passionate kiss with Christine Bleakley in front of a pub in London.

The couple is dating since last November and they were seen kissing and cudling under the bright London sunshine.

As reported by Dailymail.co.uk, Lampard and Christine stopped kissing when a group of tourists spotted the Chelsea midfielder and asked Beakley to take a photo of them with Frank Lampard.

Christine Bleakley wore a casual outfit of beige shirt, denim shorts and Lampard also dressed down in a patterned white T-shirt, khaki shorts and sandals.

They had couple of cocktails outside the pub.

Hope this couple goes well and gets married, otherwise it is very difficult and sad to write "Lampard spilts from Bleakley".

And They will LIVE HAPPILY ever after...

Croatian mid-fielder Ivan Rakitic has already started attracting European heavyweights and the latest news is that Chelsea has shown interest in Rakitic.

The 20-year old has been outstanding for Croatia in Euro 2008. Juventus and Internazionale has also shown interest in Ivan Rakitic.

The Sun reports that Chelsea have been checking out the Croat, who is expected to cost around ₤12million.

Ivan Rakitic now plays for Bundeshliga side Schalke 04.

Luiz Felipe Scolari has been named the Chelsea football club manager and he will paid £6.25m-a-season over the next three years in what is one of the biggest deals ever agreed in world football.

Even so Scolari has not yet signed a contract. His negotiations are being handled by the agent Jorge Mendes, who has developed into one of the most powerful men in football and who, ironically, also represents Jose Mourinho who was sacked by Chelsea last year.

Dutchman Henk Ten Cate has been linked with English club Blackburn Rovers, who has been recently sacked from Chelsea football club. Ten Cate is also having talks with Greek giants Panathinaikos, but he himself is not interested to commit with the Greeks untill and unless he receives a final verdict from the English Balckburn Rovers.

Along with Henk Ten Cate, Paul Ince and Alan Shearer has been linked with Blackburn Rovers manager's job.

Jose Mourinho is the new manager of Inter Milan. The former Chelsea manager has moved to the Italian side for a 3 year contact worth around £7 million a year. His deputy will be Giuseppe Baresi.

Mourinho has plans to bring Frank Lampard to Inter. Lampard has been offered £130,000 a week by Chelsea and Inter has thoughts to match the deal. Inter Milan also plans to have Eto and Deco from Barcelona and Ricardo Quaresma from Porto.

Heavy weight names like Drogba, Michael Essien and Carvalho are also being shorlisted by Jose Mourinho.

Assistant Manager of Chelsea footbal club Henk Ten Cate was sacked yesterday. This is another big news in English football after the sacking of Avram Grant last Saturday.

Chief Executive Peter Kanyon called Ten Cate yesterday to a meeting at which he ws told to leave his job at Chelsea, because all leading candidates to succeed Avram Grant had indicated that they do not want to keep Ten Cate and they would prefer appointing their own staffs.

After the controversial sacking, Avram Grant has appointed higly reputed solicitor Anthony Julius to negotiate with Chelsea. The Israeli is unhappy with the payoff offered by Peter Kenyon (Chelsea chief executive). Grant thinks that his payoff contrasted unfavourably with the 12 million pound Jose Mourinho received when he was dismissed in September 2007.

Grant was offered 5.2 million pound as compensation by Chelsea. Grant hired Anthony Julius to help him secure a better deal with Chelsea.

Anthony Julius is the same person who fought in favor of Princess Diana for her divorce against Prince Charles.

Now we will see a real Chelsea fight off the field.
