Fernando 6,585 Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 The Torres situation has been and gone, everyone know he's been shite, but now we have another astronomical transfer here with Cavani.Will he bottle it? Who knows, hope he doesn't but by god is there massive pressure on him.Cavani, free of injury and in form. Torres when bought, out of an injury and out of form. Not to mention that Torres needs a whole system to play him......So don't see Cavani flopping like Torres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's face it, you could stick a spider up front and it would do better than Torres, so there isn't a comparison really.Look at Torres's first season, people where begging him to score and celebrating it like we had won the league, and whilst there is nout wrong with that it just showed how desperate we where for him to score, it was that bad.

Bir_CFC 3,455 Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Jovetic to City confirmed? Yikes, they got a beast of a team there, going all out for short-term success.HartZaba - Kompany - Nastasic - ClichyFernandinho - ToureNavas - Silva - JoveticAguero That is a beast of a team right there.

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 It just stroke my mind, that this is the real last season of the old guard. In 2012 only Drogba departed, but now Cole, Terry, Lamps, Essien and with Courtois coming back next year also Cech face exit or loss of importance. Means we have to sign some 1 or 2 experienced players to mitigate the transition. Hazard, Oscar, mata will probably be beast in a year, but I doubt KDB; MvG, Schürrle, Chalobah and Mceachran will ALL be ready. There still have to be some experienced guys they can learn from and who know the pressure. Ok, we wills till have Luiz, Mikel, Iva, but I doubt that will suffice. We might not be that far off with those de Rossi, Rooney rumours. They would provide the experience in the 2 departments we will be lacking it.

The Skipper 20,609 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Wouldn't mind signing them on for another year based on how they perform this season tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisenberg 1,824 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 @The Skipper, It is the best solution, but maybe and I say maybe to still have a Frank Lampard & John Terry on the same wages will affect the future tranfers of the club, if for an example we let Lampard go at the end of the season, or JT or Ess, it would be easier to have a De Rossi in the financial terms.

Maybe they can reduce their wages. I'm sure they understand the direction the club is going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cole and Cech are likely to stay for a season or two, they still have something to offer IMO, hope both of them end their career here, where they belong. But beside that I think you're right.

petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Heard Cazorla already agreed personal terms with Atleti and the deal is 99% done. Spanish media reporting it is Cazorla's wish to come back to Spain as he hasn't adapted to the life in England. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDY 1,290 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Good buy but slightly overpriced at £21m imo. The figure in January when we were linked was around £15m IIRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
