jimmy floyd hasselbaink is looking in pretty good shape... Just saying...

[Symbol123 175]

One of Witsel/Capoue for the pivot please. Ideal Mourinho players

[Strike 7,481]

No Falcao. No Cavani by the looks of it. Lewandowski please.

[JDY 1,290]

Thoughts on David Villa leading the line? I know he's been linked with Spurs/Arsenal but if we are to buy a forward, the top quality options are looking increasingly unlikely.

Would rather hijack Jovetic from under Arsenal's nose. He's younger and more hungry than Villa. Would have said yes to Villa 3 or 4 years back in a heart beat but now i'd rather we looked else where.

I think there are much better forwards than Villa. Would take someone in their prime

I think Lewandowski has to be the priority in attack now. Otherwise, someone of the level of Benzema, Rooney, Gomez, Higuain... Maybe Jackson Martinez from Porto.

[Gilvorak 3,734]

Our number one priority should be a midfielder. Luiz isn't good enough at DM, Lampard is a goalscorer not a playmaker, Ramires is a B2B midfielder, Mikel isn't good enough and Romeu lacks the athleticism to be a reliable option there.

Tired of us getting outclassed in the big games and constantly losing the midfield battle.

We should be signing Banega this summer if the likes of Gundogan, Schweinsteiger and Modric aren't available.

Classy player but he's been playing as the no.10 for the majority of the season.

[The Skipper 20,609]

Apparently Thiago of barcelona is unhappy with lack of playing time and barca are also prepared to sell him(With the buyback clause) to make funds for neymar.Any takers?

If we can mould him to play for the pivot he'd be brilliant (not sure how good he is defensively) - we tried to get him a few seasons ago I remember. Fantastic little player, underused by Barcelona.

He is not going anywhere, He is going to replace xavi

31 and definitely past his prime. this move would be going back a step in my opinion. plus its anther player who can be bullied off the , wont fight for the 50-50 aerial balls etc etc for which we already have the MAZACAR. need some1 who can get in the defenders faces. anyways in a year or 2 we will have our own NEW drogba leading us (LUKAKU).

[Pacquiao 1,834]

Im starting to think this could be our team next season -

Cech

Azpilicueta - Varane - Luiz - Cole

Ramires - Khedira

De Bruyne - Mata - Hazard

Lewandowski/Rooney

Subs - New GK, Ivanovic, Terry, Lampard, Oscar, Schurrle, Lukaku/Torres

No link from defence to midfield. I wouldn't play Ramires and Khedira together.

Wouldn't even buy Khedira to begin with. Don't think he offers our team much.

Bit harsh on Romeu...he's barely had the chance to establish himself in the first team.

I do agree that we lack that bit of steel in midfield...would of been interesting to see the likes of Essien, Ballack in their prime supporting our 3 maestros...

Nice team....but I'm not sure if we'll get Varane. He's a potential world-class CB...Madrid would be fools to sell him!
