Popular Post! stroey 2,525 Posted July 17, 2015 Popular Post! Share Posted July 17, 2015 We clearly had some weaknesses last season, and none of them are solved till now:1 lack of strength and pace in center midfield 2 over reliance on Hazard & Diego for goals3 no squad depth (trusted bench players)1. Witsel or Aranguiz could solve problem 1 for us. Ramires is the best option untill we have found someone better, but playing him there reduces the ability to control and build the game. I actually hope we sign both players to solve problem 3. 2. Pedro, Griezmann, Reus are scoring AM's but only Pedro seems to be likely. For now, playing Remy on the wing is a temporary option for this problem. So I really hope we don't sell Remy.3. I honestly don't understand why Moses is here, will Jose trust him? If we have a bench with Moses, RLC, Cuadrado and Mikel next season, we already know our first 11 will be over played (again). Falcao for DD is an improvement in depth though. And hopefully we can find a trusted LB when Luis leaves.So I hope:- LB: find a reliable Luis replacement if he leaves. - CM/CDM: Witsel/Aranguiz or both if Mikel leaves. - AM: buy Pedro, only keep 1 of Moses/Cuadrado. - ST: keep Remy. zolayes, MrExcalibur100, Unionjack and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matterz 67 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I kinda get the feeling that Chelsea FC will turn this transfer window on its head with one big signing. At the moment it feels like the calm before the storm. Adnane and Essien19 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 If we need more goalscorers why would we not go 442 and play Remy and Costa up front? It's a fine strategy unless we're playing a team like Barcelona that we need to pack the midfield against. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rekin 835 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 All things considered, I would be very happy if we this summer signed:Begovic, Baba, Pedro, Stones and a CM cover. This way we have an incredible backup GK (deal already done, so yay!), two of the most exciting defensive prospects in the world, a proven and experienced right winger and finally a better option to throw in the middle of the pitch than Mikel. Costa Hazard - Willian - Pedro Fabregas - Matic Baba - Zouma - Stones - Azpilicueta CourtoisThat is a fantastic lineup with a huge amount of potential right there.

And also our slow centerbacks preventing us from staying high up in big games due to fear of pacey forwards. If we don't buy or bid for any player soon, it means for some reason we just want to remain as we were last season, even after the woeful champions League performance and poor big matches.

Any team with a quality midfield will overrun us. Unless we go old-school and play two holding midfielders like Arsenal did with Petit and Viera. But I doubt replacing Cesc with Mikel to play two strikers will lead to more goals, since neither Costa nor Remy are close to the level of Henry and Bergkamp in terms of creating chances for themselves. kellzfresh and Unionjack 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illmatic 901 Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Stones, Falcao & Pedro would be a very good summer all things considered.For me, is more important a solid midfielder than a CB, and would prefer that we sign Witsel than Stones.... Although If finally We sign both players, better yet . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! LukakutoStamford 779 Posted July 17, 2015 Popular Post! Share Posted July 17, 2015 Stones, Falcao & Pedro would be a very good summer all things considered.Not really because midfield needs at least 1 and probably two additions. Witsel and/or Aranguiz would round out the players needed to give Chelsea the boost needed to win the PL again and have a chance at the CL MrExcalibur100, illmatic, TheIceMan and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
