Fellaini is way better than all of those you listed. I would keep Meireles, but definitely sell the rest. Plus Benayoun isn't a CM, he isn't competing for the same positions as Essien and Meireles. Still, no rush on Fellaini. We can make the final judgment call on our midfield options during preseason. Lamps and Mikel first choice with Romeu backing up Mikel, which is fine imo. Lamps back-up at this moment is between Essien and Meireles. Both can do a decent enough job if they play on top of their game. But we just don't know how often they can do that.

We should sell Essien and/or Malouda and buy Fellaini. We lost a lot of height and power with Drogba and if possible we should replace that with Fellaini. Dude was winning headers easily against the entire England team. He's shown, similar to Drogba that he single-handedly can be a plan B if we sometimes have to resort to long-ball tactics. Without Drogba we don't have anyone else that can do that. Torres definitely can't and Lukaku probably won't have much impact on the first team next year.

He won't get enough time at Everton. If Holt leaves, he should go to Norwich. Sunderland or Wigan won't be bad either.

Yeah same, I changed my FIFA last week too. Cech Ivan - Luiz - Terry - Cole Ramires - Lampard Hulk - Mata - Hazard Torres Funny enough, the way I'm used to playing FIFA, almost everytime either Mata or Hulk get MOM.

Some forums have a setting in the user settings that allow the user to set a value for how many posts they want to see on one page. Not sure if you can do that here, but if so, that'd be great.

Torres had a couple of nice chances, but China's goalie and their defence was pretty good. Should have got an assist though for his flick-on for Albiol. Mata on the other hand was just a BEAST. His 20 or minute cameo was really really good. Him and Iniesta completely changed the game and created so many chances.

Don't think Kalas will be back next year. He led Vitesse to Europa League qualification so I'm sure he'll return another season.

Never trust anything by anyone with ITK on Twitter.

Go to Real! Rape Barca some more haha. But then again, he still hopes to play a lot of games, so he'll probably end up in Ligue 1.

Considering how hard it is to find capable full-backs. 8M is a bargain for anyone who is even able to play that position.

Luiz is gonna recruit us all the Brazilians we want.

So yesterday in FIFA I updated Chelsea. Transferred over Hazard, Marin and Hulk. Released Drogba, Kalou & Bosingwa. Well for the first 2 games Hazard did not play good, I was not happy at all. Fans were booing. Hulk adjusted right away, scored a goal in his first appearance. Torres was awesome too, his ratings have decreased but for some reason he played better, confidence does that to you. Mata was class too but he missed some easy goals, work on that finishing Mata. BUUUUUT, then after 2 games, now Hazard was getting into it and boy that 3rd game, he ripped United a new one, scored 2 and then danced around like 4 United defenders in their box and chipped it over a hopeless Lindegaard while everyone stood in silence. WHAT A BEAST !!!!!!!!

Should work now.

I love Hulk, but 38M? Too much man. 30M is the highest we should be going.

If we sign Hulk as well, then Ramires will get relegated to the bench because in a 4-2-3-1 he's only able to play the 2 wing positions. Ramires and Marin will be back-ups at the wings with Ramires getting the occasional start depending on the opposition wingers and if the manager would rather shut down one of the wings.

https://twitter.com/#!/hazardedenI0 he picked united Eden hazard ‏@hazardedenI0 evening guys. I will join Manchester. look forward to new history with red devils.

8M isn't too bad. Ivan should still be first choice, but VDW, although I'm not much of fan he's not worse than Bos.

I won't believe until middleoftheshed confirms it.

Agreed. I know it sounds stupid, but i agree with this dude 100%. Conor Sammon is better than he gets credit for, just cause he doesn't do flashy things doesn't mean he's bad, he just needs that stage to get that recognition and Chelsea can do that for him. Finally someone gives some respect to Sammon. WHAT A BEAST!! Hulk who?

Hulk just got subbed out, omg what a bum, Brazil up 3-1 and the coach is still forced to sub this piece of shit off,

Why would Porto sell Rodriguez for 20M? He'll be even more expensive that Hulk.

With Marin and Hulk, we have some very very good crossers on the team. Especially Marin. Hulk also adds another good penalty taker and an option on free-kicks.

So this looks like it's happening then eh. I hope the transfer price is 30M. Anyways, time to go home and start a new FIFA 12 career mode with Marin + Hulk on the new team, already feel beastly!!!

Nope. You can't post in it? If so, then my bad, sorry.

You already knew there was a Falcao thread yet you create another one and tells the mods to merge? Creating work for the mods deliberately?
