He played last year, while he was injured this season for long time. That is reason why he didnt play.

He would not have played even if he was fit i have been following the bundes liga for over 10 years and he has not lived up to his potential. Because of that he hasnt been used a lot! The only season he played good was the one with ozil after that he has not played that well! What has to be said is that schaaf played him out of position. But marin is a player that has lots of potential but has not been showing it over the last 2 years. That is why the media in germany and switzerland were so suprised that chelsea bought him. Chelsea normaly buys players that have been playing for there clubs not like marin. In germany most people dont expect him to make it here but somehow people in england that have not seen much of him are convinced. But hey he has potential and could make it but just dont expect it!

Marko Marin: "Sevilla want to keep me, they want to buy me outright" I know it's not very ethical to take advantage of people with clear mental disabilities but if someone in the Sevilla board is actu

One glimpse at the Willian thread before that game and people were praying we go no where near him. We have the most fickle fans in the league.

Moses has number 11 at Wigan. We want Moses. Number 11 at Chelsea is open.

No, I doubt that would happen. The number 11 is one of the most famous and popular numbers in the football business, hence it's very marketable which makes it very suitable for big signings. And tbh I don't consider Moses a big signing.

I have seen worst, Di Santo had 9 at Chelsea, Lass had 10 at Real for some time, Valencia got iconic Uniteds 7,...

My point is that Moses could easily end up with 11, if he will express wish to wear that number.

After all, 10; 9; 7; are most famous numbers, but for example; Zidane had 5 at Real Madrid, then Cannavaro, then Gago and now Coentrao. Even such iconic number, yet it wasnt kept for next super star they bought.

I wouldnt mind if Moses gets 11, that would only mean that he has destiny to become one of greatest.

The important thing which we agree on is that he does have potential, and that's quite enough. You said he played well alongside Ozil, ok great, now he has Lamps, Mata and Hazard so who knows? Maybe he'll become even better.

And earlier I wasn't comparing Marin to Mata and Ramires, I was just saying that just because the player isn't hyped it doesn't mean he'll be a flop.

Remember the ever-powerful #9 Sidwell? :D ...Or Boulahrouz, but actually he wasn't bad to be fair.

After a legend like Drogba leaves your club you don't give "his" number to a role player. You just don't. Moses would be stupid to ask for #11 as the expectations would highly increase by the time he enters the Stamford Bridge for the first time.

As hard as it may sound Zidane was just one of many superstars in Madrid, so that doesn't really count IMO. Handing Raul's number 7 to Ronaldo was far more critical.

I don't really believe in destiny. You could of said the same thing about Torres when he was given Ossie's #9, yet he failed to make us proud.

Saw this on twitter:

"I was told a club called Liverpool declared interest in me. I had to google them to see who they were." - Marin

good man. :tophat:

IF that was from Twitter, then it's probably BS. Have seen loads of people fabricating quotes like that to take a dig on other clubs. Quite pathetic really.

In short, do not form any perception on Marin just yet. Wait till he plays and then judge him.

Think he will surprise people here...

Exactly...and even more than that, wait until he plays 5-10 games or so to judge him. I hate the "he had a bad first game, so he's crap" or "he had a great first game, so he's a world-class player".
