🇩🇪 Marko Marin

[Sheva. 5,373]

Centre forward should be one of our last priorities, we need midfielders, and another winger.

Disagree, i think we need a striker that scores frequently, a 25-30 goal a season striker. We have none atm.

It's all about saving money, creatiivty is whats needed, you put someone up front a goal scorer, lets spend over 30 mill on one. Okay lets get Falcao 35 million, or Cavani for 30 million, they will score about 12 max, because theres no creativity in the squad. We need more creativity, midfielders new wingers, more pace and ideas. We have none, we even need a back up centre back aswell. We have Torres and Sturridge, lets give them a chance instead of cashing in on a striker then being in serious trouble of spending on creativity, FFP PEOPLE!.

[milllz 43]

Would list it this way.

Priorities

1. Creative midfielder

2. Winger

3. Striker

i think a decent right back (azpilicueta-cant spell!) is more important than a striker atm

[Kojo 4,676]

Well in some games he performs great, others not, so he may be knackard but still inconsistent and he's still one of our best players.

He's not inconsistent, at the start of the season he wasn't inconsistent. He's just very tired, he plays every game. And if he was, he's no where near on hoilets level, Hoilet does nothing 4 out of 5 games, then can have the game of his life.

Between a RB and a striker, I would say we need the latter more at the moment. We need a prolific goal scorer and not relying on one who is mentally wrecked!

Lol alright then, i just don't trust Torres or Sturridge to lead our line.

But i do agree we need more creativity before getting another striker.

[Ashblues 30]

Priorities according to me

1. Creative midfielder (Modric-esque)

2. Genuine Winger

3. A very good right back.

We have many strikers already. Sturridge is good at that position. Lukaku also showed glimpses of his talent. Then there is Torres. So, no more striker(s) needed IMO.

Hoilets a good young player, he plays for a team that's fighting for safety, maybe if he goes to a bigger team he'll be more consistent, for one he'll get the ball more and he'll be playing with better players. Just look at Valancia for example, he used to play for Wigan and if i told you a few years ago he was going to be the best winger in the league you would of laughed.

Valencia isn't the best winger in the league, Gareth Bale is, Valencia is overrated for me, he has stepped up now. But he dissapoints, trust me when United have got a full team he wont stand out or shine, infact he will put himself back on the bench again. But that's my opinion, Hoillet for me could be an Nzogbia or Downing, go to a better team and not shine, Matt Jarvis would do the same, no one would notice Jarvis if he went to a big team.

Sturridge is still yet to convince fully even at RW. Lukaku is still young and yet to be proven at the very top level despite 1-2 promising cameos. And Torres is basically wrecked, mentally and is a hit-and-hope striker at the moment. So, we definitely need to get AT LEAST one prolific and clinical striker in the summer!

[Term-X 7,891]

We played Marin out of position for the past two seasons and his development has stalled because of that, so since we are not planning to change our tactics, it is better to let him go. He deserves to get a new chance in a bigger club, and I hope he makes it in Chelsea. I can see him having some problems due to his tendency to go down too easily, but he seemed to have improved it a bit lately.

He works best as a winger.

We usually play diamond, and Marin did put a few decent performances as an attacking midfielder for us, but it's clear that he's not perfectly suited for that position. He was playing best when we tried out a 4-2-3-1 formation two seasons ago, when we still had Özil in our squad. I wouldn't judge Marin based on his performances for us anyway, as we've been shite for the last 2-3 years.

Gareth Bale? now he's the one who's inconsistent.

[manpe 10,861]

At least we have one certain scored penalty in shootouts now

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Marin. Hulk. Moutinho. Azpilicueta.

Next season would be great!

By playing 4:2:3:1, we need only one cam at the time. Mata. KDB, Lampard or Moutinho could enter that spot, when rotating.

[LDN Blue 7,903]

We've signed a 'squad payer' for £6.5m, anything else is a bonus. With an oncoming exodus we need squad bulk, a marquee winger is still priority.

Indeed. Considering our last squad players who cost £7m is now 30+ and plying his trade at Arsanal

[BlueLyon 9,359]

At least we have one certain scored penalty in shootouts now

And one german that will support Chelsea against Bayern.

[Sheva. 5,373]

My point exactly.

[Ollie 4,400]

If he's best as a winger in a 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 then that's great for us because we need a winger more than anything else by a distance. Mata should be more central and we have NO wingers in a formation that supposedly uses wingers. We need 2 wingers anyway, not just 1.

[manpe 10,861]

It's positive that we weren't even being linked afaik.. this was a total surprise. Class negotiating. More signatures should be captured mid-season when there is no focus on transfers. And imo it's a good signing, Marin is one of the names I dished out long time ago as someone who I'd like to see here.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

My point exactly.

Not true. First get another winger and midfielder. And RB. Than give chance to Torres and Danny. If they wont start scoring, sell Torres in winter and buy new striker.

Right now our priority is Winger (Hulk) and Midfielder (Moutinho). And surely, we need Azpi.

No more money left for striker!

If we buy striker, we wont have proper midfield, people! What part you dont get?

I dont realise why you want striker ahead of creative midfield (winger+cm)?
