Vesper 30,219 Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 On 02/03/2018 at 7:43 PM, OneMoSalah said: Yes hes talented but he has played 8 games of football in his whole career. And that brace are the only 2 goals he has scored this season. 25-30m for somebody who has played 7 games in Italy. Actually surprised we didn't try sign him because we like expensive young players who have not proved very much, I generally am unsure if he will ever become a top player. I think hes obviously got some talent but he will need what 4 or 5 years playing every week to grow as a player? Why did he not stay at Genoa and do that? Our own Lewandowski? People have been complaining about us signing up and coming players and not more established players for a while now. This just defeats the purpose. The main reason I posted him was to answer the other poster as to why dont we buy our own young potential (emphasis on potential) top strikers. Last year was the year to get him on the cheap. I say we revisit this in 3 years and see how good Pelligri turns out to be.PiPetrPell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Daily Star Sunday) if it happens its safe to say he will more likely end up at Real, more chance to succeed there than at Chelsea to be honest, altough i would love to have him in our ranks, but Real have more lure and more Champions League aspirations than us, sad but true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideshow Luiz 2,310 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Someone tell the board that he is 29 so they don't chase him all summer then find out on deadline day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice try but you're late! On 3/3/2018 at 5:02 PM, Jason said: He turns 30 this year. So, can't wait for us to pursue all summer only to then realize his age and not offer more than 1 year+ contract and we end up signing some dud from Ligue 1.

Unionjack 7,531 Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 From Madrid: Roman Abramovich makes Chelsea real contenders for surprise signing http://sportwitness.co.uk/madrid-roman-abramovich-makes-chelsea-real-contenders-surprise-signing/ Hes getting on but Ibra was scoring well into his 30s. And hes scored 40 this season with 2 assists. Depending on price he could be great to get us back on our feet for a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
!Hazard! 3,394 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Judging by the two games against Real, in his current form he's hardly any better than Morata. And he isn't getting any younger... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsblubot 3,595 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 true and looks like he's lost some pace, which he relies on since he's not the most powerful guy. Only sign him if a good opportunity presents itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only sign him if a good opportunity presents itself. He's good but don't think he is as good as the hype. I mean sure, his goalscoring record is impressive but can hardly remember him being decisive - be it with his goals or performance or both - in the really big Champions League games. That Dortmund v Real game aside, can't think of any other game. Amblève. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 with the rumours of us operating on a tighter budget in the future, i doubt we would shell out that much for a 29 y.o. Fernando 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unionjack 7,531 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Hes scored 8 in the last 10 games with a hat trick Vs Dortmund and MoTM. I dont really see him as past it yet. Tomo, Fulham Broadway and The Skipper 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Past it or not, what people should see is that after pushing to Bayern move few years ago, realizing his dream move, now playing there for years, he looks like he couldnt give two shits and he probably doesnt. Thiago, Kimmich, Alaba were seriously dissapointed and thats what you want from your team. Lewa went in this tie unsure if he should wear Bayern or Real shirt and the two performances show that. There was zero grit in him to win the game. Dont forget he was pissed about teammates last year for not winning golden boot. Fits perfectly with Real DDA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, yeah, but it would be pointless to sell Hazard and spend the whole money on Lewa. He won't be able to score a lot with mediocre players behind him like Senor Pedro. Keeping Eden and still getting Bobby would be huge though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
