Losing Oscar itself would be an uproar imo.

Griezmann? Reus? You do know we have quality players such as Atsu and Piazon out on loan for us who have been nothing short of spectacular at Vitesse right? And get this, they're free. Regardless, Selling Oscar would be ludicrous.

We also have a certain Spaniard out on loan who's name is Oriol Romeu. Remember him? His sort of simple distribution and covering at the back could improve our squad.

1. If we call Courtois back, he must be our starter. Sell Cech while he still has got some value. 2. Going into the season with Ramires and Mikel as our only reliance in depth in a system where we need quality midfielders of distribution is already a recipe for disaster. 3. Ramires is an utter liability (squad player at best) and Mikel is getting in the way for Chalobah's development. (an actual youth product who can give this club some identity) 4. Atsu, Romeu, Van Aanholt, Piazon, Lukaku, and Coutois MUST be in the squad next year. 5. Rid of Torres and Eto'o. (I don't mind Demba Ba as third choice striker, assuming Mourinho sticks to his usual 3 strike ways going into a season) 6. A Central Midfielder, A Left Back, and a Quality Striker is what's needed to have a stabilized squad. --------------ST--------------- Hazard----Oscar----Willian ----Matic----------CM---------- LB----------------------Azpilicueta --------Terry----Cahill---------- ------------Courtois--------------- Lukaku Demba Ba Schurrle Piazon Salah Atsu MVG Romeu Chalobah Lampard Ramires Van Aanholt Zouma Kalas Ake Ivanovic Blackman

Both have high expectations for club and country, that is the undying truth. Youth product or not, the club pays his wages and he is representing them with the badge and the colors he wears, any evidence of half arsing in games or showing dis-interest is really poor imo.

If it is true, that he is saving himself for the world cup, then that is a poor mentality that shouldn't be allowed. Same goes for Lionel Messi at Barcelona, in which it has been ever so blatant (little lenient towards Lionel considering he has basically won everything at that club, twice,). He honestly needs to re-think things if he wants to continue to develop himself. Look at Koke at Atletico (whom I feel both him and Oscar will be battling in the future for the best central attacking midfielder), he has been praised as being Xavi's successor, more than likely to play a big part for Spain in the World Cup, and has been nothing short of spectacular for Atletico this entire season, arguably the in-form Spaniard right now, giving everything for the club. Club comes first.

We would still need a second choice LB, as Bertrand wouldn't want to play second fiddle again.

David Beckham. Without a shadow of a doubt one of the most over rated ever. Goes in the bracket as becoming more known as an icon rather than a football, similar to George Best and C.Ronaldo, expect those two are arguably world class footballers where as Beckham never was. Quality player on his day, end of.

If Courtois isn't starting for us next year it will give me another reason to hang myself

If we do not invest in centre mids over the summer I may just hang myself

A poor mans Lampard, and a very poor one at that. He is young, but he looks so incredibly dull at times.

Don't mean to over hype him but he has a style of play similar to Messi. If he works on his execution and decision making he could turn into an outstanding footballer.

I'd replace Sturrdige for Hazard tbh

A better question would of been, "would you still have supported Chelsea if we ended up like Portsmouth if Roman never arrived?". My how things would be incredibly different.

His buy out clause I think is 45mill

League Title > Champions League

The league title now is an absolute must.

As a footballer it's not even debatable, Maradona set a standard rarely reached.

Why do you think that?

Torres

?

Yeah, imagine if we actually had a world class striker.... Their worst striker is better than our best, that's saying something. Tactically outclassed. Simple

He's gone. Remember the good times we had, but most of all remember he is now our rival.

Ramires must start, we need someone pressuring Carrick

He has improved immensely.
