OneMoSalah

Tbh I am still surprised we didn't sign him in the summer when we were linked with him. Hes very much an allround striker, would have been ideal for us tbh.

Good shout tbh. Very much a player Mourinho would like too; fast, direct, works very hard, good technique.... but we just signed Salah who is effectively the same sort of player. Plays on the right and comes inside on his left.

Hes been very much out of sorts this season, struggling to get a lot of games ahead of Pepe and Ramos certainly hasn't helped him when hes had a chance to play either, looked rusty vs Valencia.

Should keep him and sign Luke Shaw, Ash has shown he is still more than good enough. Shaw or whatever left back we sign can learn a hell of a lot from him.

The term world class is flung around too easily these days. If we have to buy Costa for 50m euros then we are paying an inflated fee for a player who is very good but not worth that 50m euros price tag...

World class striker? Is Costa at the same level as Suarez, Falcao, Messi or Ibra? No. Hes a major improvement on what we have but anything going over 35m m is a rip off.

Anything over 32-35 million is a rip off I feel.

Jesus christ.

Maybe so but if your opinion was correct then why has Mikel been at Chelsea since 2006 and Tiote has never particularly interest any big clubs? in some cases: facts >>>>> opinion, this is one of those cases.

Shit the bed not this bullshit again.

Excellent footballer, lacks a bit of pace but I'd have him in my team over Schweini, Martinez or Thiago no doubt.

Best allround midfield player but he isn't even the best midfielder in the Bayern Munich team? Toni Kroos is a better player.

No way.

Marco is a box to box midfielder.....

He already made his debut against Hull in the first game of the season, came on as a sub in the second half.

I think he will find it is best his son goes on loan to somewhere like Vitesse maybe not next season but when hes 20 so hes counted as a homegrown kid. Hes a good young player, great on the ball for a CB but still that sort of CB can always be a risk and to throw him in the first team against Liverpool potentially against a 60-70 goal strikeforce like I've been reading about on twitter and stuff could be a big risk. If he gets a start tomorrow it could be a real eye opener, he might float or sink.

Horrible to hear, RIP Tito, far too young to go.

I think if we play on the counter against Liverpool his legs to get back up and down will be very good, hes a box to box midfield player he said that himself in an interview after he just signed and there have been comparisons between him and Frank Lampard in due to that respect so if we are to go with Ba upfront and play a sort of more direct counter attacking style he could be very useful. Obviously I see us setting up playing 4-3-3 with a strong, robust, energetic midfield containing Marco (if hes match fit), Matic and maybe David Luiz if Mourinho risks going with someone younger next to Cahill like Christensen or Ake but I don't know.

I loved this guys performance vs Swansea (ok it was a few weeks ago but yeah). Hes a bundle of energy, full of pace, attacks spaces very well and in 1v1s he looks like he is difficult to stop without fouling due to the fact he can shift the ball so quickly. His finishing was a bit erratic with the chances he had especially when he skied that chance in the first half vs Swansea but I still think that's something Mourinho could iron out of him. Obviously hoping he starts against Liverpool on the right he could cause Daniel Agger/John Flanagan a whole lot of problems with his willingness to run in behind them and take them on in 1v1s.

Tbh I am a big fan of Kovacic, have been since he burst onto the scene at Dinamo Zagreb few years back but I think out of the two Rakitic is much more ready to play in the PL as he is more mature and usually makes the right decisions which sometimes Kovacic doesn't. Kovacic is a interesting prospect but I think he needs more time to grow and mature as a player before coming to a club like Chelsea and Inter and Italy in particular is a decent place for him to progress still for another year or two. I haven't seen much of Kovacic since around January or February but I don't really bother watching Inter anymore lol.

He chose PSG because they were the only cunts stupid enough to pay 60m euros for him....

Put it this way, Moses will have a PL winners medal this season and Hazard wont....... how fucking sad lol.

He played at Napoli, one of the most counter attacking teams that have been in Europe in the last four or five years, for fuck knows how long so how would he not fancy our style?

Marco playing in that box to box role next to Matic sounds appealing to me if hes fit enough to start again Liverpool. The two of them together would be good; two strong, powerful, athletic players with good technical ability surely couldn't be too bad an idea?

Hes an all-round midfield player can pass, tackle, shoot, create chances and all that other stuff, sure on paper it seems he plays as a 10 but he doesn't. He really has a free role in Sevilla's system and can go wherever he wants to be like in that 10 position or come deeper and play as a deep lying midfield player. He would do a job next to Matic for sure plus he has a good engine and can get up and down with ease. Really impressed me against Valencia earlier as well as Bacca, would be an interesting buy.
