I'm sorry but I'd have to let Oscar go for 40M.

Oh, didn't know. thanks .

Not saying we buy 1 player and we'll suddenly be Bayern. I meant that if we ever want to become as good as them then we'll have to (among other things\players) have that kind of player.

Can anyone think of a Modric, Pirlo, Alonso type of player that is available ? We really need one if we want to become a top team like Real or Bayern.

Did anyone watch him play today?

Rami: "Our stadium looked beautiful again! Thanks for your support! You're our 12 player! The title run continues!!" But.. I thought it wasn't our objective. Jose is about to get angry

Haha.. 40m ? yea right.

Well we can still always lose to the small teams. City can aswell but probably wont happen.. Generally speaking I dont want to get my hopes up so all I'm really thinking is something along the lines of: "Its fine if we don't win anything, it's Jose's first season and we're really only starting to build the team... I guess we kinda have a chance to win the title, that would be awesome but no pressure, City would probably win it, I dont care, next season is ours."

For me it was important to see that he CAN be good at the final third, to know that he has the abillity to give some great passes and create chances. Now he just needs to do it more ..

Dont we also have to play Liverpool (A) and Arsenal? It's City's title to lose actually..

If only he was good as an attacker.. god he would have been perfect. LOVE this guy

I thought he did ok.. not too great. Wasn't awful but wasn't good either.. He'll have to show more than that to make the starting line-up. Although I still think him, Hazard and Willian is our strongest 3. Schurrle hasn't really convinced me yet.

Good performance as usual. We really need to find him a worthy partner, a Pirlo, Gerrard, Alonso esque player. It's something that we're really missing IMO (along with a proper striker and an attacking LB).

This. Finally good passes from him, very good passes. I think if he can do that in every game now that would be massive for us. He's got that abillity but just didn't show much of it up untill now. Hope he keeps it up. I also would have chosen him as MOTM if it wasn't for Eto'o.

Team to face Spurs (4-2-3-1): Cech; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry ©, Azpilicueta; Matic, Lampard; Ramires, Hazard, Schurrle; Torres. #CFC

Bayern are a joy to watch. 6-1 against Wolfsburg

Some of you need to realize that Costa is not going to be a massive goal-scorer for us (IMO atleast). Those of you who say "one season wonder" - I'd bet that you're right stats wise, goals wise.. I don't think he's gonna score for us as much as he did this season. But, its not only about the stats and the amount of goals, especially when it's for Chelsea. We don't necessarily need someone who'd bang in 30+ a season, it's just not how we're set out to play. Costa is always a threat to the opposition, always causing troubles, there's always a chance for him to score \ win the game. He is not like say Torres, who barely ever is a threat and doesn't even require much attention from the CBs. There will finally be someone with presence in the box, someone we can cross to, someone for our attackers to find, someone to deliver to. And he is also a WARRIOR, a fighter, not a fucking pussy who will lose hope and be lazy or whatever.. Even if he doesn't score 30+, he can certainly lead the line and I'm sure that he could do good for us and contribute to our game far more than Torres Eto'o or Ba. He's also 25 and I dont think we'll pay 50m.. 30m would be a fair price and it wont be a Torres situation.

We can't really know how much of a risk it is.. I'll trust Mou on this one. All I know is that we really need him to be fit for our next 10 league matches.

Well apperantly not eveybody shares the same opinion on this. Some don't think we're better off selling him even for the price of 30+..

Haha, exactly ..

Ahh Torres is resting, thanks god for that

If its true.. god it could have been a great deal for all parties. Lewa doesn't go to Bayern - win for Dortmund. Lewa signs for Chelsea - massive win for us. KDB signs for Dortmund - Win for him.

Yea, but because we look shaky in defense everytime he plays CB - that's right there shows he is less good. I'm sure he has the potential to be a top CB and maybe he'll even present some amazing defending in the WC (I sure hope so). But right now for us he isn't 'it'. He's a good DM but that's not his position and we already have Matic there to do the defending. No point in a Luiz-Matic pivot IMO. Only if we want to go really defensive.

Laugh all you want, fact is he's a CB and not a top class one ATM, no matter how much "potential" he's got or how much of a good footballer he is.
