LucasRiver reacted to The only place to be in Robert Lewandowski
I kinda agree.
The one thing that probably sets Lewandowski apart (except for his age and comparative 'cheapness') is that he already plays in a similar system to the one we're employing. Stats don't tell the whole story, but if you look at where the goals come from in the team, then Atletico really do build everything around Falcao.
Falcao has scored 26 goals in La Liga, but the next highest scorer only has 7 (Costa) whilst Garcia and Turan only have 5 and 4 respectively.
Lewandowski has 23 goals, but Reus, Blaszczykowksi and Reus have 12, 11 and 10 goals respectively.
To me the Dortmund side more closely resembles what we're trying to do with Mata, Hazard and Oscar (or Moses, De Bruyne and possibly Schurrle) expected to chip in with goals too. We've never really been a team who get all our goals from a striker, even when we had Drogba in the team and I don't expect us to start doing that next season.

That has been one of the great things about our team over the years. We spread the goals out and aren't reliant on any one player.
Hazard and Oscar could easily score 15-20 a season each. Mata already does that. Moses is in double digits. Then there's Ramires who chips in with a few. We may lose Lampard's goals but Schurrle, currently on 14 for the season in Germany, would make a great addition.
That's why our forward needs to be more than a tap-in merchant. He needs to have a good all-around game, link well with our midfielders and just be an intelligent and technically good footballer. Basically all the things that Torres isn't.

Indeed, let's not overhype him, or at least let's hold it down until he actually plays for us.
But one thing is sure though, being only 21 years old and already at a really high level he is a really rare player that has the highest amount of potential to reach the top top level those 2 have.
I just can't wait to see him play, and if we sign Hulk our attack will blossom since 3 of them (Mata,Hulk and Eden) will attract a lot of attention, and since it's 3 of them there will be more space then Mata had for example last season.
Exciting times! Like I'm playing bloody Football Manager!

LucasRiver reacted to teignman in 🇧🇪 Eden Hazard
So let me make sure I'm clear on this:
We scouted a player for years, who in turn became the most desirable player on the transfer market. Only after everybody and their brother started talking about him, the Manc clubs started to sniff around. Then we actually signed him. Who are these people and what have they done with Chelsea's board?
