Strike

just few days ago, same DailyStar said he will wear #23 at Chelsea. definitely bullshit

there is an online site kitbag.com where I got the shirt for cheaper there is no customised print but you do get all the players' names on the back oh and it's perfectly legit

Cheers for the mentions, people

now goal.com take it a step further Jose Mourinho: Chelsea style must change to suit Torres

Foot-tennis?

Lukaku can out-muscle okay defenders like Dawson/Carragher and even give some of the best defenders in the world a hard time but I don't think he can carry the attack for a whole season.There are some areas of Romelu's game that isn't quite up there yet. Plus, the other 2 striker options - Ba and Torres - are not exactly inspiring Steve Clarke used Romelu in a 3-man attack based on counter-attacking which involved a lot of running with the ball down the channels or through the middle. I doubt he will get such space when playing at Chelsea. Ideally, we'd have a starting striker and mould Romelu into the team this season before he takes over. We shouldn't sign sub-standard strikers just for the sake of it though because Romelu is better than the likes of Benteke etc But if a quality striker is available, Chelsea should act.

the fantasy thing may be because chelsea have a double gameweek first up and as far as the overall post goes, Lukaku certainly deserves a chance but this is too early to rely the whole striker-department on him.

Kojo?? Anyway, yeah. a striker and a midfielder will do. Then probably sell off one of the mids (Essien) as there are already 5 mids + Oscar, KDB Luiz have played in that position.

Wrong decision. Eats up a squad space.

4 am on a Monday morning. This is just cruel to us Asians

i don't remember but Campagnaro did get bullied in the 2nd leg then.

Newcastle agree fee for Gomis.

Loved how Cole stood up to that cunt Campagnaro

He's still got it

i thought you owned the internet anyway firstrow? they've got chelseatv links

Comfortable win. Moses - Beast mode

Good. We're a bit light in the youth striker department. Only Bamford and Lalkovic as far as I can recall.

Hutcho, Mufassir

Haha. That's crazy! Props to the guy. Doesn't look unfazed at all.

a David Luiz lookalike apparently bossed training

^Chelsea-Everton final looks dead on

a bit long but well-detailed.

For one, Oscar is more suited to a 4-3-3 than Mata. He's much more aware defensively than Mata who played almost as the second-striker last year

Where will he play though? He doesn't have a fixed first-choice position in the team. Mata bossed at CAM last season - one of the best players in the league - so that's taken. Eden Hazard - first-choice winger and the club have got De Bruyne and Schurrle this season, both of whom are far more comfortable and suited to the wings. Another option is deeper in the pivot but then again we bought van Ginkel and have 5 players for that position Oscar will play a lot of games filling in at different positions than being a regular fixture in one position. That will affect his overall output here. edit - To accomodate Oscar as a first-choice player in his preferred CAM position, Mata should shift to the wing. I know Jose has told in the press about Mata playing on the right but I think he's much better/effective at CAM

This. He won't work well in a pressing game with a midfield duo looking to recycle possession forward. He works well in the old 4-3-3 where he sits in front of the back four with no much running, pressing required.
