We play so many games and Mata has played so much that I think all three can have a fair chance in the CAM role...

Yeah Forssell would of been a great striker for Chelsea if those injuries didn't ruin him I really liked him too.

The way Didier closed the chapter of his Chelsea career was just awesome. We really showed fight that night because lets be honest they were a better team then us and they had very talented players. We fought them and prevailed !

Lol if I was Torres reading this thread it would put the final nail in the coffin for my dignity ahhaha people are actually putting viable arguments for a false number 9 like Mata instead of Torres.

The only striker we've had that has done that well on loan was Sturridge. This guy will make it we invested heavily in him because of his performances in the Europa league at 17 years of age. He's someone who we can really mould like we did with Didier and he'll keep improving with time. I read that as soon as he came on against United they were put on the back foot because of his strength and that is what we need upfront !

He's going to be a superb player for this club because he's a true Chelsea player. He is exactly what will give players like Hazard and Mata the space to play around him.

Laugh out Loud this Ronaldo talk is silly as if Madrid would want to let him go just because of Neymar..... Neymar isn't nearly as good as Ronaldo and it would be silly to think Neymar could even remotely take his place...

A Ronaldo transfer would be hefty for even an owner like Roman to be fair.

Yeah I really hope we do win but we are due a loss and... Ok I'm just going to log off for a while until after the final because you guys don't need this negative energy.

No probably means most likely in my opinion we'll lose this game. I can see us losing in all honesty I just have that feeling !

I just have this feeling and my gut instinct is normally right.

This is why I prefer keeping managers for the long term because we don't even know what the new manager has in store for players like Romelu. I think Mourinho would love him though, a player like Lukaku probably needs another season of regular football. He needs games at his age and we probably won't give him that.... He's a quality forward though he proved it by being the highest teenage premier League goal scorer ever !

We'll probably lose this final............

Amir Zaki and Jelavic are players that spring to mind.

His movement and finishing is sublime. He is really skillful too and we should never of released him !

He needs a new challenge. He's not a Chelsea type player though not for this generation anyway... We haven't played with a rooney type player effectively since Zola. That deep lying forward does not fit into our midfield/wing structure !

He's a finisher with a capital F

He's not good enough to be a Messi that is just simple. I don't think he'll ever be as effective in front of goal like Ronaldo either because Ronaldo is much bigger faster and stronger then Eden. The best we can hope for with Eden is a player similar in level to Frank Ribery and I actually think that is really achievable....

Oh come of it Henrique... Ba is clearly the better player for us and he should get the nod ahead of Torres and he probably will.

I don't see how they can fault a striker that has got them 14 Premier League goals this season at vital grounds like Anfield and St James park. I would of loved to have got 14 Premier League goals from Torres with Mata, Hazard and Oscar behind him lol not bloody Youssouf Mulumbu and Marc Antoine Fortune

West Brom fans in Beirut Lebanon

I was more worried about our record to be honest it's a fact I like to repeat to Liverpool and Man Utd fans its a fact that not many people actually know.

He know's how to use his body now which he didn't when he first arrived. He's a lot more mobile and he's a genuine threat !

I don';t understand what people have against Marko Marin to be honest. If he get's games then he'll improve and get used to the league.... he might need a loan like Lukaku that might be it then we've got a good winger. He's only 22 don't give up on these young players yet they can do it !

I agree and Victor is only 22 people seem to forget that because he's played in the Premier League and Championship for so long. Victor gets on the end of things and we don't need to go back to players like Robben going back never works in my opinion.
