Arlen Correa 161 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Dont know if is the right place but there's this new Brazilian winger/CF named Richarlison(20) who's a great finisher with both legs, good in the air, very strong and fast, can defend better than a full back..apparently moving to Ajax for €15 mi. Dont know if he will become wc, still very young; but i was reading in the Dutch media an interview with Piet de Visser - top Chelsea scout, and he said that he "dont know Richarlison very well". is very strange because he knows all the other youngster in Brazil. Chelsea need to improve the scout system in Brazil..stop signing players that were good only in the U-20 like Kennedy, and start to sign the kids that are doing great in the professional. EXAMPLE: There's a left back named Guilherme Arana(20), he's already better than the majority of Brazilian LBs in europe. He probably can get a work permit. He's linked with half europe. Watch some random club from France or Italy to sign him for €18 mi and Chelsea trying to buy him for £70 mi two years later.

Sideshow Luiz 2,310 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 With Matic probably gone soon, we need to get at least 1 more midfielder in. Not seriously linked with any right now. Kind of need to get this done. Johnnyeye 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 In: Morata 58M, Rudiger 32M, Bakayoko 40M, Caballero (free) - 130M. Out: Oscar(60M), Bamford (6M), Cuadrado (17M), Begovic(10M), Atsu (6M), Bertrand Traore (10M), Solanke (5M?), Matic (45M?), Diego Costa (25M?) - 184M. 54M difference. Would invest it in Virgil van Dijk. Then concentrate on Ox and a left full back or a backup for Alonso and we're done. GK - Thibo, Caballero, Eduardo CB - Van Dijk, David Luiz, Rudiger, Cahill, Christensen (Azpilicueta). RB/RWB - Azpilicueta, Moses (Ox). LB/LWB - Marcos Alonso, Kenedy, new LB/LWB. CM - Kante, Cesc, Bakayoko, Ox, Baker. Wingers - Hazard, Willian, Pedro, Ox, Musonda. CF - Morata, Batshuayi. http://lineupbuilder.com/?sk=f2fy6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Younger, more dynamic, and we would screw over Liverpool. But my biggest priority is still left back. God forbid Alonso gets injured, that could potentially throw the entire season down the drain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Colored Sky 1,807 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I wonder about that midfield spot. Kante, Fabregas and Bakayoko are 3 senior options for 2 spots. And Bakayoko has knee issues that we have to keep in my mind. We have to buy someone for Matic when he leaves. But I don't know who, can't even think about one. We'll surely be linked with one when Matic leaves. There's certainly young, Vidal esque player out there that we don't know about yet. We need to sign him, Blue-in-me-Veins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to sign him, I doubt Conte would want to lock himself into a midfield two, he already tried several times last season to swtich from 3-4-3 to 3-5-2 during games. We could also try 3-4-1-2, with Hazard behind Morata and Batshuayi, but then we should have a couple of defensive midfielders like Bakayoko and Kante behind them. 3-4-2-1 is another option, still prefer some ball winning central midfielders, if we try that formation. Bakayoko has had some recent knee problems as you have mentioned, if Matic leaves we need atleast one replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just overpaying as they're used to. I expect Kenedy to leave, so Ox & LWB would be nice. Not sure who's lined up for the latter, if anyone, after the Sandro saga.

Yes, but we are also in the market fb/wb since last season and we haven't gotten anybody. Yes we got alonso at deadline. He has been a fantastic wb for us but we all know at lb he will struggle.
