It seems he's signed for Chelsea on a 5 year contract. That's what Israeli media (http://www.one.co.il) is reporting at least.

Disappointing if true. I like Yossi and he's an excellent squad player.
Agreed. If it is true I hope we didn't get f'cked over on the fee.

I have NOTHING to back this up but my gut says he wanted out after this year - not sure if it's because of the club's position (understandable tbh) or Rafa, but he seemed to be 'eager' to move on. Oh well, he was a good squad player. It says a lot that Chelsea have signed him.

Can't say I'm happy with us selling players without a manager in place. If it's true that he has gone then it's a bit of a shame but no big deal as long as he's replaced.

Replacing him with equivalent quality for a reasonable fee will not be easy.

It's all over the media web sites here - Yossi has agreed terms with Chelsea and a deal has been agreed between the two clubs.
Well, thanks for good 3 years for us Yossi. Can't wish you good luck with the Chavs though.
As for us - I do hope it's not the beginning of an exodus. I also hope we have some creative player lined up to replace Yossi. Al Zahr is certainly not one.

There are about 15 players in the squad who should be leaving before Yossi. He was probably ourbest player at the start of last season. Good luck to him doubt he will play much football for the rest of his career.
It's an awful time to be selling anyone, with no one to line up an adequate replacement or try and talk Yossi out of it.
It'd be ok if we had a new manager who'd moved to agree something with Turan, Ozil etc as replacement. Can't we just make him wait for a few weeks?

Damn it. I was hoping he'd stay after Benitez left. Who authorised the sale? I find it weird and a bit disturbing that the board didn't think it was worth waiting until a new boss had been appointed. Surely that kind of decision ought to be made by the manager?

Nothing to add to this thread, it's all been said.
Give us Joe Cole in return please!

He's probably forced his way out and doesn't want to play for any new manager, at least not while the champions are after him

Not really, if he's decided to go then what can we do? I hope we've put up a fight mind, but player power and all that.

What I am really disappointed in is that Yossi has always made the stance that he just wants to play football, he will warm the bench there much more than he ever did here.

and so it begins...
Perhaps it was agreed a liitle while ago, there were some very strong rumours

I would have never switched LFC for Chavs or any other team.
However, Yossi is not a fan. He is 30 and have a few more years to play at the highest level.
With all the uncertainty surrounding LFC and with an offer from the champions (i.e. champions league football) he took the decision which seemed to be best for him personally.
I hope we appoint a manager soon, as things might get nasty w/o someone holding the driving wheel.
As I said before - I'm not gonna wish Yossi good luck with the Chavs.

But he'll have his seat softened by a big pile of money.

Maybe the new owners wanted to get rid of him.
