i hope he doesnt get rushed back into action! they should ease him in.

Ibra is better than Cavani but Cavani is of course younger, but by the time Ibra gives us 2-3 seasons Lukaku could be a top class striker by then! I just want us to sign a top striker!!! i hope we get one!!! #squeakybumtime

Please be true!

I agree i think Oscar or KdB will play a lot as the number 10 next season because of their defensive abilities, and i think Jose will want to sign a RW as well.

Thats exactly what Sneijder is getting, He is still living off what happened in 2010 the fact that people think he would be a good signing for us shows how overrated he is. He really isnt good enough to play for us not even as a back up to Mata! as Oscar should be higher in the pecking order than him and even Hazard who prefers to play as a number 10. Last season he was getting linked with Man United, what has he done to deserve that hype since 2010? nothing, hence why he is overrated. He should be getting linked with the likes of Anzhi or Monaco not Chelsea or Man United.

So Dzeko has gone from 20/1 to 8/11 to join Chelsea? Alot of people must be confident of this happening! I would like Dzeko in the squad in place of Ba but not sure about him being our 1st choice striker.

In my book it does if people still think a player who has declined so much is still a top player. Which many people still believe. how would you describe an overrated player then?

as i said before in 2010 he was a joy to watch and one of the best in the world if he kept playing like that consistently then he wouldn't be overrated! fact is his performances have dipped considerably since 2010 and the fact that he is being linked with us shows the media for one are overrating him to even think Sneijder would be wanted here. Lets be honest he was world class in 2010 and had he been linked with us then i dont think anyone would say he is overrated but that was 2010 its 2013 now and he is still living off what he done in 2010 he doesnt deserve to even be linked with us because he isnt good enough! Should we sign Totti or Ronaldinho or Kaka because they were all once world class? of course not because they are not at that level anymore! neither is Sneijder.

They also had 50 % possession at Anfield did they give them possession as well? they also had more possession than Man City when they played in March did they give Everton possession as well? in fact since March only the 2 north london teams have kept more possession than Everton and i am sure it goes back even further but i cant be bothered to check.

you do realise saying someone is overrated doesn't mean your saying they are crap. But yeah he is overrated, he has done nothing for years as he is in a sharp decline, he has been poor at Galatasaray, and yet people think he can come to one of the hardest leagues in the world to play for a team with ambition to win every trophy and think he will be successful! that is an overrated player in my book.

Haha having less possession yet Everton kept more possession than Chelsea at Stamford Bridge! you do realise they are getting a new manager dont you and will most likely play a more possession based game next season under possibly Martinez! and as for Swansea they would suit Sneijder well a mediocre team who can pass the ball well, they can stick him in the hole and be happy with his average performances.

not annoying at all! aww angry are you because your anther one who cant back up anything he says! LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

deary me! this is getting very tedious! at the end of the day the main topic is Sneijder not Piazon! why dont you back up with some facts why he would be a good signing to rot on the bench for us and maybe get a few games in the Coc cup? If his name wasn't sneijder and you looked at his performances since 2011 would you think he would be a good signing? or that he even deserves to be linked with any top club in Europe?

I have seen alot of him this season actually and as i said before he would be decent for a team like Everton or Swansea, he has had a poor season, so if you cant see that then your clearly havent seen him play much have you?

du u really fink your bein taken seriously? your argument to sign Sneijder is laughable! why dont you post more youtube videos or tell us that He was good in 2010 again!

Haha thats rich coming from you who cant back up anything you say! Piazon's favoured position is playing as a second striker, he can also play as a striker or out wide or as a number 10! he is a versatile player. his best position imo is as a second striker, similar to the likes of Bergkamp or Del Piero except Piazon has more pace. But he is still young and is yet to fully prove what his best position is. But saying he is like Hazard because he likes to cut inside??? is certainly not how i would describe him!

Your way to ignorant to understand! dont worry! let me try and simplify things for you. So if Mata was out of the equation Oscar or Hazard would have been our number 10 not Benayoun! we would have lined up like this - PL games - Moses - Oscar - Hazard Ba Europa League games - Moses - Oscar - Hazard Torres then if someone like Oscar got injured we still would have had more option like this Moses - Hazard - Marin/Benayoun Torres/Ba and if we anyone else got injured then Torres could have played out wide in extreme circumstances! I know its hard for you to understand but i hope that helps!

No he isnt LOL!

Ok so you are stupid then. I am fully aware of how many games Oscar and hazard played! but you said who was Mata's backup and mentioned Benayoun so do you really think if Mata missed the last 3 months of the season for example that Benayoun would have been our number 10??? LOOOL of course not Hazard or Oscar would have played there instead with Moses/Marin/Benayoun/Torres playing out wide!

who exactly has mustered nothing more than saying he is overrated? please tell me who i would love to know? Its the people who cant muster nothing more than saying he was good in 2010 and all he needs is some motivation to be good again! lool we have heard that one before haven't we! (Torres)

LOOOL! are you sure your talking about last season and not the season before! we had 2 players 3 before Piazon went out on loan! you might have heard of the other 2 Hazard and Oscar i think there names are! pretty decent players i heard! much better than a declining Sneijder thats for sure!

dont try and change the subject! this is irrelevant! get back on topic and carry on trying to convince yourself that a player in decline for years would be a good signing for a team who wants to fight to every trophy next season!!! LOOOL!!! or alternatively just give up! even Gala fans will tell you about Sneijder! or will he suddenly turn world class again because Mourinho is his manager? LOOOL! keep dreaming!

LOL! believe that if it helps you sleep at night! fact is he was very disappointing at Chelsea! he was past his best and was often invisible in games for us and often got subbed off! LOOOOL!!! Wow your not very bright are you? Piazon is 19 years old!!! 19!!! no one said he is the finished product but he is a player developing with so much potential! but you would rather a player in decline who has no long term future at the club to come in and push Piazon further down the pecking order! its laughable that you use the fact he barley started for Malaga as part of your argument like Malaga are a mickey mouse league 2 team!!! they have so many quality players in their team and were seconds away from making the CL semi finals! and just because a 19 year old kid couldn't start regularly for them you think he isnt good enough??? LOOOL!!! I guarantee he learned alot at Malaga and will come back to Chelsea a much better player! But yeah lets sign sneijder so he can be our 4th or 5th choice AM and push a developing youngster out the door once again! yeah such a great idea! Why would you list 4 CM's as if Sneijder would play there for us! you dont need pace to play CM! but to play AM in the PL it helps to either have pace or to have an incredible football brain like Mata! Sneijder has neither! and can be very sloppy in possession like Deco! and LOOOOOOL at listing Terry as well!!!

oh so i must have dreamt him wining the Champions league with Porto with Mourinho :doh:
