Non-Chelsea Transfer Pub

One in the winter, one in the summer.

My point is: if someone goes down, Chelsea are already fragile and barely a candidate for a top four finish in the table. Better in January IMO. The better center midfielders will be even more coveted following the World Cup. beat the rat race; sign now.

Striker is all anyone can want for xmas with inflated January prices. We put more pressure on the back four by not killing off games. We might have to trade a midfielder to get a forward.

Behave.

What world class players are available in January and not horrendously overpriced?

Diego Costa-release clause £32m

Reus-release clause £30m

Witsel-available for £35m

Zuma-available for £10m

Guarin-soon to sign for £15m

Jackson Martinez-40m euros release clause

Zouma and Guarin we've been strongly linked with.

In what world is Martinez world class?

In what world is Witsel available for £35 million?

Why do we need Reus?

remember this discussion next summer when Chelsea fail to make top four, there are only a limited number of top all-around center midfielders already, and none of them want to transfer into a non-Champions League club.

Chelsea don't need the very best center midfielders right now; Chelsea need some quickness of thought and body along with the strength to drive past defenders in center midfield. as I said before, even though a player like M. Diame isn't rated highly by many, he is more than capable of improving Chelsea's center midfield (as Mikel is not good enough and Lampard can't take on any defender) if Matic doesn't come along with Guarin (or, whoever might be on the way).

Why is impossible to buy Falcao? He have his price and we can get him. We need some "killer striker", who wil get ball in 16m and will score. Something like Gerd Muller was. Mandzukic will be good for us but I don't like him (a little bit ironic because he is Croatian ). He scores a lot of goals, runs all the time, do a great pressing on opponents defence. If Lewandowski go to Bayern, I think we can get Mandzukic for 25mil.

I don't think Monaco will let Falcao move to Chelsea. They're building the team on Falcao. Mandzukic is a solid striker, he could be a good choice.

Guarin is good enough for now and he fits into our financial structure.

I've watched this guy play. very interesting.

[Christo191 173]

Martinho de Abreu ‏@Martindeabreu 6h No doubt that this is a botaforic account. Other than that, hypotethetically it will be an interesting one. Reminds me of a young Khedira!

[Phil Driver 503]

The thing is, though, that we've had this problem for a few years now and haven't addressed it. Jose insists on using a 35 year old as first choice. Can't see us spending on a huge signing at an inflated price now.

The world class midfielder we need is almost certainly already at a CL club, so I doubt their club would sell.

Jose insisted on using a 37 year as first chice at Inter old at Inter and they won the Champions League ,was that wrong?

zanetti is a superhuman athlete and was used in a role that suited him.

Benfica fans haven't got many nice words for Witsel..

benfica fans rarely have any nice words for anything

Yes Jose gets it right ,he judges the performance not the birth certificate ,Zanetti would have been too old before he won the Champions League .

There's always been a vast difference in the build and athleticism between someone like Lampard and Zanetti. furthermore, Zanetti is an all-around footballer that Lampard has never quite been (defensively or from the back).
