No Lack of Talent

[BLionheart 516]

O.K. we missed on a few stars , well on many stars to be frank ..... we missed on Sahin , Aguero , Pastore , Sanchez , and Most likely Neymar and Modric (hope i didn't forget anyone)

Some must be really angry and disappointed with our transfer activity so far but i still think that if AVB wasn't lying , If he was really assessing the current squad before going into the market then finding the right talent won't be a problem .

We obviously need a creative midfielder and at least 1 winger , i think that world-wide across the 7 continents there must be some young quality midfielders and wingers and as a top team with supposedly top scouts we should easily find some when needed .

In fact i have some leads myself , for the creative midfielder there are Marko Marin - Mario Gotze - Marvin Martin as the top 3 prospects if we can't get Modric.

and for the winger there are Hazard - Mata - Hulk - Jesus Navas , and i am sure any decent scout in south america will be able to recommend some great prospects in the wingers department .

So my point is this misconception of us not going into the market because of lack of right talent is not true , IF AVB wants to improve on some areas he will be able to , there is only 15 days remaining and we need to act fast but i can't see how will AVB a man known for liking his wingers to be proper wingers will start his 1st season with Chelsea with Malouda , Kalou , Anelka and Sturridge as his "proper" wingers.

I guess in 2 or 3 days after AVB has his meeting with Gourlay we will be linked with every half decent player .

I am sure most of the members in here can come up with at least 1 creative midfielder and 2 decent wingers that we can still sign .

Add Mata to the list we missed

Creative Midfielders - Miralem Pjanic, Toni Kroos

Weren't we very close to signing Jesus Navas a few years back? I seem to remember his homesickness was the deal breaker.

You are right in that there are always players available but unfortunately we don't have the scouts. We have the worst scouting department of any of the major European teams. We would never sign a player like Hernandez for 8m for example because we don't know they exist!

Maybe that is changing with AVB who personally went after Oriol Romeu but I won't hold my breath.

That's exactly what i wanted to say.The fans must understand that this is the best way to run a club successfully and stop asking to spend ridiculous amounts of money for players like Pastore.

[eldo 868]

What about Joel Campbell. RX8?

[bababoom 4,478]

AVB did say that he wants to get young players, i'm happy about that. I'm also happy about him accessing the squad, and now he can make decisions in terms of whose in or out. I think now we just have to wait, i am sure we will get at least one more player before the season starts, and another player just before the transfer market closes.

[Guest justin_3d]

He can also wait till the last day of transfer.

Cause playing with the squad against Stoke might reveal something.

So he does not has to rush before the first PL game.

Gőtze.

You gotta be kidding?. He is one of the reason Dortmund won the titel last year, really big talent!.

:541: Podolski

[termninja 5,290]

How about Heskey!? I'm sure he can play both as a winger and a playmaker :eyebrows:

[nadavTKL 1,787]

Now that Zhirkov is out, Modric, Hulk and Bastos in.

[Guest justin_3d]

Are you kidding?

If anyone can do that job i thought it would be my man Bebe from United!

[BLionheart 516]

Gőtze.

you don't think Gotze is good enough ?!

This 18 years old lad will be a world-class player in the near future, he has the same potential as Wilshire and he has more experience than Mceacheran already .

He has good speed at his feet , very creative and he has some outstanding technical skills,he is a natural central playmaker .

He is not just one for the future as he has already proved he is top class.

[nadavTKL 1,787]

But why bringing an 18 year old creative midfielder when we have Josh?

Its stupid.

Whats the problem bringing those 2 midfielder together?. It would be

a fantastic creative future ahead of us.
