Ollie 4,400 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 He's 23 and has a lot of time to get his career back on track. He may have lacked something in the last couple of years but so have Bremen in all honesty. This move is great business all round, hopefully he will improve like Ozil at a top club. Good age.

Kojo 4,676 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 And if he isn't fantastic, then i'm sure we can use him to good use, you can't go wrong with the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Just like KDB, I reckon this is another signing based on judgement by Piet De Visser or whatever his name is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I didnt see anything exciting about him on youtube. But then again I didnt find anything exciting about Mata either.Exactly, if he's been bought it's obviously because our scouts see something in him. Plus he was playing really well before Ozil left. Ozil's departure meant he had to play behind the striker alot more and take on most of the creativity needs of the team. It was obviously too much of a burden as his performances went downhill. I think with better players around him and the fact he will be able to play as a winger will mean he will get better here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanicus 5,208 Posted April 30, 2012 Author Share Posted April 30, 2012 Whoever says that Marin is faster than Ramires is wrong. Ramires is faster and has amazing stamina - he can run fast for a long time. On the other hand Marin is slower than Ramires, but he can accelerate and make few (crucial) fast runs past opponents. His stamina isn't too good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicManMata 24 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I watched Marin plenty this year, and I am...underwhelmed by this news.Marin is basically a poor man's Daniel Sturridge.Nice moves, good pace, but no vision, no football IQ, and horrible final ball. Finishing is below par to boot.Getting this kid is a bad move IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! Melanicus 5,208 Posted April 30, 2012 Author Popular Post! Share Posted April 30, 2012 You haven't seen him in a Chelsea kit yet, so stop moaning. Do you remember Cahill's thread? He is average defender, we only bought him because he's English, he should not play for us... And what he turned into? Defender who ate Messi in his first season in Champions League.

If he isn't Chelsea standard after a couple of seasons, then fair enough. He doesn't even play for us yet and he's being slagged off, SMH. capriccioso 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capriccioso 2,545 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 That is very, very unfair on him, by no means is he average. He is inconsistent and like Sturridge can be incredibly frustrating when he's not contributing goals and assists, but just like Danny, he is brilliant at the top of his game. Hopefully the pair of them find some consistency! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His stamina isn't too good.I would say he can pip Ramires over extremely short distances, like 10-20 metres which is probably more important in football. Ramires would destroy him over 50 and 100 metres, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwonder 11 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 lol @ Jiamin. dont let your boss catch you though. especially if he is a barcelona fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwonder 11 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 good buy with little money, best case scenario; he turns out to be a superstar and we have a steal. worst case scenario; he is unable to cope and becomes a good squad player. i will rather have him as a squad player than malouda.

Justin_3d 1,140 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 People just don't learn do they?Remember slagging of Ramires as a waste of money?Cahill not good enough for Chelsea cause he is just from Bolton?People need to chill out and wait at least a season before you judge a player.Some players might hit the ground running like Mata and others might take a long time like Ramires. Azpinator, francozola and BlueLion. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badboy 1,526 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I can't believe its been this long since we signed a pacy wide player. Malouda and Zhirkov don't count and neither have break away speed. I seriously think Ramires is in the top 5 fastest players in the planet, he is ultra fast.
