The more I think the more is evident that there is no striker available who would suit this team in all looks. Either he is too expensive (Cavani), cunt as person (Costa), too incomplete/unexperienced (Benteke) or too old (Rooney). There is no perfect striker ala Etoo or Drogba atm and it is crazy because the prices have never been higher. There were days of true strikers like Henry, Raul, Rvp, Drogba,...nowdays we have either big cunts Costa and Suarez or expensive players with little ambitions like Falcao or Cavani (why the fuck would you move to France to be second option to Ibra?) Cavani though is best striker avilable; he suits Mou style, is good chap and proper age. But he is going to be realy hard to get from Psg unless he forces transfer... Rooney would be good option, not too expensive and still in very good form. But he gets injured a lot recently and he isnt young anymore. But if Mou trusts him, I have no word against it. Players like Lukaku or Benteke are just not fitting this team Im afraid. We need striker with good ball control and link up play who can destroy West Ham on his own. We need striker who can win us games against small teams, our biggest weakness atm.

Im worried about small games...if we do another West Ham, we are in trouble. And we dont have plan vs small teams who park the bus. No strikers or width...

Ref was just shit. Red card not given and multiple wrong decisions in favour of city. And we still won that game. Three! 3! posts and City fans think we were lucky. Bunch of arrogant pricks.

Lahm 2.0 His versatility is amazing and in couple years, he will be one of best full backs. Under Mourinho, he will be tacticaly superior and its good that he doesnt rely on pace too much, but on reading the game. He is caught of position on LB sometimes, but he is RB naturaly and he is amazing there.

It was today confirmed that Hazard will be competing in ski slalom on Olympic games in Sochi

City is best team in world they said. Well said.

That happens when Jose gives you a couple of advices and you are good enoung to follow them. Cahill certainly made huge step from last year and is more consistent than ever. Gary for president!

Better not to smile than those arrogant laughs by Ronaldo when he misses goal or gets 'fauled'. Is it just me or is Eden amazingly strong/balanced? I remember him in duel with Yaya and later with two tall City mugs and he simply kept the ball. Unbelievable balance.

I like him more and more. He is basicaly teaching our players to be better, how to improve and motivate themselves. Too bad he isnt younger, but I would love to keep him for another year, certainly ahead of Torres and Ba. New striker, Lukaku and Etoo would be great.

Take a bow son. Another brilliant performance. Just one small mistake; when he had a chance to shoot, but instead passed with backheel to no one; he should try to finish that on his own. Its only positive that he is not selfish, but in situations like this, he just has to try shoot and score goal. But nothing to blame realy, wonderful and complete player. I hope he stays here forever.

Ffs people forget that this guy carried our midfield for past two years with his fighting performances. Not to mention goals he scored. We fucking won against City and put great performance. Ramires missed that chance but he is not the only one who misses clean goals. I bet if Ramires puts world class performance vs someone like Lpool and scores winning goal, he will be greatest hero etc. Every team needs warriors and destroyers, Rambo is that guy. Stop blasting him and stand behind our player for once FFS!

I said before that he was a bargain and I will say it again. This guy is best CM we could possibly get. He likes Chelsea and is also top player. Cant beat that. Great game

Its funny how people twist their minds...yesterday Ivan and Rambo were unwanted in team, yet today they are suddenly heroes by same people who blasted them...MAKE UP YOUR MIND FFS! Dont support players in good times if you keep blasting them after couple bad games.

Great match so far, only shame we didnt score one more goal and it would be perfect. Just keep it up in second half, if City starts flying, they will defeat us...

If one player from academy makes it, doesnt matter who, be it Chalobah, RLC,...,I will be very happy. From the ones we bought, Piazon, Hazard junior, Lukaku and Courtois could make it. Maybe Traore, Wallace and Ginkel aswell. Depends on who we buy in summer. I realy do hope Ruben makes it here.

Just imagine if we bought Etoo instead of Sheva and Aguero instead of Torres. We realy have no luck with strikers or board is run by idiots...

He is no doubt world class striker, but if we sell Cech and this guy doesnt work out in PL like we wanted, we are screwed...on other hand, if it works out, we have goalkeeper for next 10 years...

Just my two cents: Costa is obviously very good finisher but La liga is one of weakest leagues when comes to defence. Their high line of play and super offensive tactics allow strikers to score bunch of goals...Also Atletico is made to play on striker, Costa would have half less service and space. He is average outside the penalty area, he cant take powerful shots like Aguero or Ibra or Drogba. Certainly. he could be equaly good as Negredo in Premier league, but I doubt he can reach Aguero or Suarez. If we are to buy top striker, we should target Aguero quality, not Negredo quality. Also he is massive cunt and could get red card every second game...plus his fighting, provocation and frustrations dont belong to Chelsea.

I think Kroos would be good adition here, but he is far from what we should realy target if we are to buy CM in summer. Kroos is top passer and finisher for a midfielder, but he is CAM, he is FUCKIN SLOW and doesnt track enough. Plus his complaint vs Bayern shows he is impatient, maybe even problematic to Pep. Perhaps thats why they are ready to sell him... We should target MOBILE, DYNAMIC CM if any and Kroos aint that. Gundogan (if fit) would be best option, Pogba or Witsel too.

Scored again...

Just saying that because he wore #10 it doesnt make him worlds most exciting player... He was given that shirt, he didnt realy have much competition; Kaka was old... You are from Brasil, I get that you like Oscar, but just becaus he had that number it doesnt make him anything more than what he is. To say that he is special because coach gave him that number is funny. Oscar is special because of his talent, not the #10 on the back. Brasil #10 might be legendary, but it doesnt make you Ronaldinho or Pele... Oscar will probably be top #10 but he is far from being creative visionary #10. Jack of all trades, master of none. But could become once...

As much as it would be fancy to have Reus, we need target man ala Cavani or Costa in attack. We looked bad vs West Ham and someone like Cavani (and good crosses to him) would do the difference. Reus isnt typical striker and I doubt he would make impact.

Yeah he misses some sitters but overall he is doing fine.

Jesus whats with this #10 jumping, yes he had it at age 21 which was impressive, but he also lost it due to Neymar. Marketing reasons etc, but Neymar is Brasil #1 player, thats why he wears 10 and not Oscar anymore.

I hope Matic will deal with Yaya, it will show how good he is. Thank god there is no Aguero, but Negredo and Dzeko will still be very dangerous. However, they arent as fast as Kun and Terry-Cahill/Luiz will cope easier. Just be clinical on other side, or we will lose. Cant see us keeping clean sheet, but win is not impossible. Up Blues!
