What stability Mikel gives you...?

----------------Ba------------- Hazard------Mata----Willian ---------Mikel------Ramires---- Cole----Terry-----Cahill----Azpi --------------Cech--------------

Song looks really awful technically when he plays in Barca.. It would be better than what we have but not sure if it's enough.

The answer for me is none. We dont have that becuase all combo's are shit. Not signing a CM this summer was by far Mou's biggest football desicion that i remember him making. Fucked up big time, and i hope he'll fix it in January if it wont be too late.

Yeah.. i dont think he likes him too much. What was the question about Lukaku btw?

No strikers in January. But why dont they ask him about other positions?!

Jose Mourinho is considering a loan deal for Fabio Coentrao in January (Mail) I hope its true. Mendes on Matic: "He has a release clause of €50m but Benfica could deal a lower fee. CFC is very interested and would like to bring him back" How is Matic's passing and playmaking ability?

You probably mean Rooney/Lewandovski type, but how many are there besides them? and if Jose turns to Martinez it also means he thinks we need a striker asap.

True, but he's probably right.

He's just a bad midfielder for this level. I always give him a chance when he does his job for a game or two, but then he shows not just how not special he is, but also so not clever enough to do his job game after game. thinking so slow, a real cowered with the ball and will always prefer the pass backwords but probably rightly so cause he can't pass it forword good enough, and he's so slowww, fast players passes him so easily. My eyes literally burns when seeing him and Lampard on the same pitch together.

Mikel is so bad, i always give him a chance but he always disappoints, doing nothing, and when he's doing something 1/3 chance it will end as a stupid thing. Lampard and Ivanovic... omg. Ivan is looking awful for more than a month, i dont understand why every time he has the ball its got to be the last ball, he thinks he's a playmaker? horrible game from the super-slow Lampard as well... they are quick, they press, the game is fast, its not for Frank to play. Three players i dont think we should have in our first line up.

I read its a player with history with this sort of things... Anelka i guess.

I agree with your point but - City are never top 5 in Europe, all those teams you mentioned with them embarrassed them easily in the last few seasons; Carrick was never a DLP last season; Fernandinho doesnt play as one in City, they play him as a CDM and his "DLP qualities" from Shaktar arent shown almost. Toure is the playmaker there, and he's alot worse at that than Alonso, Xavi, Schweinsteiger, Gundogan.

We first need to try avoiding so much crap performances by signing a DLP, if we could get Falcao too in the same window? i wont be against it but i dont think its the first thing to do. Falcao+Cabaye in January could be sweat actually.

Why you call him William?

I think we need someone who can pass the ball in midfield and not an 'animal'.

Yohan Cabaye is the way to go in January i believe. Has what we need in midfield - creative, good passer, quick, defends well. Plus he got some amazing shots which will also help. He does those things we need so much, not with the quality of Gundogan, but a lot better than Lampard. He'll improve us immediately i think. Off course he wont cost too much, 15m will probably do, and he knows the league which is important for a January buy.

Some of the things that been said are right - he does make us more balanced and we look more solid, and right now i prefer him next to Rami, but we would be so much better with someone like Mikel who can also play fast and make some key passes regulary. I dont think he'll ever change in that subject.

According to the relible Gianluca Di Marzio, Chelsea scouts have watched Jorginho in Verona's game against Sampdoria. A Brazilian-Italian central midfielder.

Im happy for him, he deserve this for a long time. Thats why it annoys me, he done some amazing things in Shaktar last season and havent got the call, now he's playing 3 games in Chelsea and he gets it? pathetic by Scolari and the Brazilian team... but anyway it had to happen. Lucas fucking Leiva is in the squad and Fernandinho not Actually the fact Lucas is in the squad alone deserves a Btw what happend to Fred? (the striker)

No, im saying that based on games i saw him in Berman and Belgium. Who do you think is less talented than him (except Schürrle)? and why does it so "silly" to think he is the least talented?

Azpilicueta in The Sun: "The season is still young and we will need everybody to win all the trophies we are targeting. I didn't play much when I arrived at Chelsea from Marseille last year either, but by the end of the season I played practically every game. I've had the chance to play two League Cup games this season and I also started against Schalke in the Champions League so I am happy with the work that I'm doing. The manager knows that when he needs me I will always try to do my best for the team in any position he asks me to play." Jose seems to make almost everybody happy, thats good. Azpi's a real pro.

The problem is the work permit?
