Mohamed Salah

[haranr 485]

Great.... Okay I have no problem with this signing since Salah is for the bench and will probably leave Chelsea soon enough. The guy is a born flop I just know it.

[Kieran. 6,317]

When we really want pace:

Salah-Willian-Hazard

Salah-Hazard-Schurrle

[LAM09 6,535]

In all seriousness, how many people have seen him play extensively?

Some of the comments on this forum clearly show that several people know little to nothing about it, other than the fact he scored against us.

It's clear what Mou wants, and that is pace. Mata KdB out, Salah in.

Perhaps he's looking to develop a counter attacking system like he did at Real Madrid? Pace isn't much help when you're trying to break down a team that has everyone back defending. And with KDB gone and Mata going, none of our AMs are really capable of defence-splitting passes except Hazard (remember his pass to Oscar against Southampton in the diving incident) but he plays more on the wing.

So, if he still has to agree to personal terms and what weckerz said in his long post, that means he isnt officially a Chelsea player than yet?

Hopefully this egyptian messi is better than the german messi

Unless anyone here live in Swit, the answer is 0. If anyone even dare to come out and claim they watch him weekly

[Buffalo talks Blue 85]

Liverpool were that confident on getting him? Poor them.

I have watch most of his games, and ALL of his games for Egypt. I am Egyptian, so I am more than happy he is coming to Chelsea. He has a lot to offer from what I have seen and know.

Why, Chelsea, why?

I don't get some of the business we do. Welcome to the boy but we don't need him at all and imo he adds nothing that we already don't have in our youth...

moving on...

Lol reading through this thread is kinda silly, people really have no idea how good this kid is.

If you remember 2 years ago when Hazard came to your club, he wasn't as good as Salah is now. Hazard had horrible UCL performances especially against bigger clubs. The fact that Salah was able to show up in big matches should alone be enough to get excited over him.

Also, one of Salah's biggest advantages is his speed, and in the EPL where it's a much more open game, this kid will shine. This also allows for Mourinho to play with 2 legit wingers and allow schurrle and oscar to play as CAM

This guy will quickly make us forget about Mata...

[Cech's helmet 220]

This is so out of the blue. the lad is a cracking player, the closest to Robben you're ever going to get. if you ask me, who I'd rather see on the right wing; Mata or Salah? Salah any day. he really is something, shocked we've signed him.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

There are good points of buying Salah like having 80mio new fans and all, but in terms of team building, I just dont see the point. If he is going to play 45min a month, that is a lot of money. Especialy when we have Hazard, Moses, Bertrand who could all be 5th option. In fact, Mou doesnt need them now and probably wont need them in thr future. I doubt Mou will give chance to any of youth players we have...I seriously doubt. If he goes to BUY a 5th choice player instead of giving a chance to youth players, and on top, Salah is nothing realy special. He is good for 5th spot, but that is all. He looks like Moses mk2 or sth, rather than a proper replacement for Mata; even for the bench.

And lastly, why arent we putting some money into Lb and St if Mou wants to rebuild this team so quickly?

[DROGBAtheGOAT 29]

I like the signing. He is much better than overrated Mata.

[Jype 6,398]

@LalkovicMilan09: Buy buy buy buy buy

The lad ain't even good enough for our reserves and is now having a go at the club for buying another player for his position? Fuck off.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Can we not write the guy off before he has even agreed personal terms?!

[haranr 485]

This guy will leave Chelsea soon enough. Huge FLOP he is going to be. He is an average player with some technique and luck that's all. Moses is even better than him.
