Chelsea Legend 11

Yes please. I would welcome Eto'o with open arms...

Hernandez can't lead a line and Welbeck is wack... They need someone who is capable of leading the line at a high level if they lose Rooney, CM is what they are after but only because they plan on keeping him I would think

Demba Ba has a role to play at the club still

Only way he comes is if Utd. sign a replacement... I'd love to see it happen but I close to certain it won't

Whether he comes or not its mission accomplished. We all know he doesn't want to play for Man Utd. and that he would rather play for Chelsea... Even psychological its advantage Chelsea. I for one don't like it when players demand moves to other clubs, but in this case I don't mind it because it mainly because Utd have shown him little respect to a player who has given them so much. Even if Rooney does come and doesn't set the world ablaze it will be nice to have another head to add to Roman's mantle. Torres, Rooney and to a lesser extent Cole, how are rivals must hate us!

Enough is enough already SIGN HIM THE FUCK UP!!! With Mourinho coming back we need leaders on the squad who know what Jose expects from the team. He is the best, everyone knows it, of our leaders he's played the most pivotal role in our "success" this season. Do the right thing and SIGN HIM UP, SIGN HIM UP, SIGN HIM UP!!!! SIGN HIM UP, SIGN HIM UP, SIGN HIM UUUUUPPPPP!!!! #SIGNHIMUP!

Ya I feel Ramires gives us good play going forward and defending and can cover for Frank and Luiz should they go forward.

Nah. When he came to the grounds last year everyone thought it would be an emotional lift and we smashed them

Show some respect to your opponents.

To be fair 4pts from 6 in our last two games is about what I expected heading into the games. The fact that we let a result slip in the last 10mins is inconsequential. We always had to get a result against Villa and I'm sure the players will be up for it! As far as the Europa league final goes its 4 days away, plenty of time to rest the necessary players. Has to be Cech Azpilicueta - Cahill - Terry - Cole Luiz - Lampard Ramires - Mata - Hazard Ba

He'd be an absolute steal for £8m the guy is an engine room. Would love to have him... seems to do the dirty work and is very comfortable with the ball at his feet, good passer too.

There aren't really any of those types available for a reasonable fee. And what also needs to be considered is we do have people coming though the ranks who could very well be that Pirlo, Xabi type... McEachran and Oscar, perhaps DeBruyne? Think about what we could do from set pieces with Terry, Ivanovic, Cahill, Luiz, Ba and Fellaini all potentially attacking headers at once? that could be very dangerous!

Marouane Fellaini is definitely one of the better midfielders in the world. His power, grit, aerial ability, goal scoring and ball winning is precisely what Chelsea need in the midfield particularly if we're going with the nippy little inventive players. Personally I feel he presents us with so many options tactically that it would be extremely hard for teams to prepare for us. We could go with Mikel and Luiz holding with Hazard, Fellaini and Moses for games where power is most needed for instance. Oscar, Fellaini holding and Hazard, Mata and Moses/Marin when we need more inventiveness.... This is just off the top of my head but Fellaini is much, much more than a DM, what he provides to a team is less about position and more about presence.

If we meet the buyout it won't matter what the clubs think.

If you wait for the summer know that you will be competing with many other teams for his services. I don't care who we get so long as the player is clinical and proven, Cavani or Falcao fit the bill.

He's already better than Jones... You kids are like virgins on prom night, NO PATIENCE! Don't mug yourself before the big show, wait for it!

Its funny because many would've said the same thing about Didier... You don't know brother, if he keeps working hard and has the desire to become one of the best skies the limit.

What part of 19 don't you understand? Good lord...

Strikers take time to come into their own. Everyone of the names you mentioned didn't hit their stride until 24-25 and in some case 28!

what are you talking about? the kid's a beast and a goalscorer! How much football have you watched in your young life? And its not 18M its 12M plus performance add ons

Actually we were linked with Marin earlier in the year. And there is no reason to speculate over names that haven't been linked to us especially since there are plenty of names that are. Its sort of silly to keep making suggestions about players who aren't likely to move

Agreed. I don't know why people keep mention names that either a) we aren't linked to or haven't given any indication they are even going to be transfered.

You don't think every team in the world wants to find transfers like that? Honestly if coming into the season had Chelsea spent 2M on Michu as our answer to fixing the striker situation everyone would be up in arms. Small clubs make gambles like that Big clubs go big!

EASY FELLAS we're all Chelsea fans here! no need for name calling! We need a striker. I think the need for a midfielder is lessened with Luiz playing in that role, he's a fantastic footballer.
