Tortilla9 390 Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 I'm super worried by our performance, Can Mata and Modric, if they sign, really improve us that much?Don't know the answer to that but can they hurt? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidEU 2,023 Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 http://news.bbc.co.u...ll/14600979.stmChelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas praised Valencia midfielder Juan Mata amid reports the winger is close to signing for the club.Reports in the Spanish media say the Valencia player, 23, is set to join the Stamford Bridge side for £23.5m.After the club's 2-1 win over West Brom, Villas-Boas would not be drawn on whether he was trying to sign Mata.But he said: "He's a player who scores and assists and he can add to any squad in the world."He added: "He's not our player but he's an interesting player...a very good player."Mata has been at Valencia since 2007 and helped Spain win the under-21 European Championship in the summer.Villas-Boas has previously spoken of the need to recruit more midfielders and the club have also made bids for Tottenham's Luka Modric.

magic weeds 446 Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Atleast it shows that the club is trying to sign two players. incase modders doesnt come, there will be a plan B. Unfortunately its taking centuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eldo 868 Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Mata insisted on partaking in the U-21s tournament. He thought it would be essential for his maturing as a player and the experience would benefit him later in his career.Wilshere and Carroll are you reading?

Chelsea? 892 Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 offtopic but I think playing Anelka at CF at thid point is our best bet. Torres is on his way but Anelka seems the most threat to goal when he's around the box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Strange how no British newspapers have reported that we have had a offer accepted or are in negotiations with Valencia, anyone else reckon this could be another rumor even though we need someone like Mata to provide width in the team and maybe to spark Torres previous form.
