quickpassnmove 924 Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Definitely money is not our problem(thank god for that) but after the Torres fiasco I doubt we would spend big money on one player in January.If we do sign a midfielder in January it most probably will be someone like Imbula,Banega,Jorginho etc.Imbula, Banega, Jorginho.... sounds like a story (or television drama). BTW, I don't rule-out the possibility of Luiz leaving. If someone wants him, Chelsea would be smart to seize the opportunity and use the funds for an expensive centre midfielder who can run and excels technically.

The only place to be 11,313 Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Yeah, because Chelsea really need to "raise funds".Yeah, we do. It isn't 2003 anymore and we're being run as a business, especially in light of FFP. That's why we have all these commercial deals in place, and if we have an asset that could be sold for a good return when he isn't first-choice for us then it is absolutely a possibility that he'll be sold.

Strike 7,489 Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 If we want to raise funds (not that we need to), I think we should flog Demba Ba when we can still make a profit on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mufassir08 2,400 Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Chelsea have made a €15m bid for Schalke's Max Meyer according to Der Westen. The player has a €18m buy out clause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a No#10,midget and under 20 years of age so I can see why we are interested.After all its not like we have a whole lot of young attacking midfielders in our squad Weckerz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korea 734 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Ki would of been a decent holding mid for us. He also played some Cb for both Korea and Swansea... However, the difference between Ki and Mikel is Ki has a wicked rocket shot and can pass forward... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsblubot 3,595 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 We need a DM/CM/B2B in January. Otherwise this ship is gonna sink...with MvG's injury, I reckon we need 2 CMs. I'd like some definition concerning Mikel also; either he is good enough or he isn't, in which case we'd also need a DM/CM replacement for him.For me: 1 Deep Lying CM - great passer and decent tackler (like Dembele). A ball-winning/B2B player who is a great tackler (Like Ramires). Honestly, Ramires plays way too much football. Essien is there but he doesn't get minutes.Never thought Lampard would still be 1st choice CM at this point. His lack of form for most of last season IMO was evidence enough he should be used sparingly/rotation at this point.Victor Wanyama looks promising... lots of power and mobility though a bit laborious on the ball at times.
