would still love to see witsel playing here, shame he'll be stuck in russia for a few years to come or big cash has to come on the table.

Witsel - Matic would be insane.

Witsel - Matic would be insane.

my thought aswell

[duo11bluecl 207]

We are not going to be signing anymore expensive CDM, you know why? Because we got the fricking Ramires, who is a beast as he shown yesterday. Yes he doesn't make 5 tackles per game like Witsel, but his pace and energy more than make up for it. Wait until he breaks his legs/run out of lungs then we can sell him and sign Witsel or whoever, but for the next 2 years he WILL BE OUR NO1 AT CDM ALONG WITH MATIC.

Like I said, the only signings now are gonna be a top class LB like Shaw and striker like Costa/Cavani/Shrek. Otherwise it would be youngsters like Atsu who we don't need, gonna sign them, loan them and eventually sell them to make money.

[Mufassir08 2,400]

Witsel - Matic would be insane.

Still no real playmaker in there.

[lucio 5,418]

^actually i think he probably does make more tackles than witsel. just much less passing technique.

fernando seems a good DM. although i would rather go for william carvalho but we probably dont need him , especially at the rumoured price.

Then that just kind of defeat the whole purpose of signing a new CDM, with our front 3 it is more than enough passing around. So don't think we will be signing any world class CDM anymore, not in the near future anyway.

Whatever the rumours say, we will not sign Cavani. People get too easily influenced by what they hear. PSG bought him for a huge sum and while he is often put out on the wing, he is like 6 years younger than Ibra and eventually will probably get the striker regular role on a regular basis. PSG have no reason to sell and people are forgetting that while he is being played out of position he has still got 20 goals for club this season. Quite amazing to show how prolific he is but that is why PSG will not sell him. First they don't need to and he is far too valuable to get rid off. People are living in a fantasy world if they think Cavani can realistically be here next season.

This. Let's stop the pipe dream. I would talk about Costa, Jackson Martinez, Benteke and etc. who have real possibilities.

The more I think the more is evident that there is no striker available who would suit this team in all looks. Either he is too expensive (Cavani), cunt as person (Costa), too incomplete/unexperienced (Benteke) or too old (Rooney).

There is no perfect striker ala Etoo or Drogba atm and it is crazy because the prices have never been higher. There were days of true strikers like Henry, Raul, Rvp, Drogba,...nowdays we have either big cunts Costa and Suarez or expensive players with little ambitions like Falcao or Cavani (why the fuck would you move to France to be second option to Ibra?)

Cavani though is best striker avilable; he suits Mou style, is good chap and proper age. But he is going to be realy hard to get from Psg unless he forces transfer...

Rooney would be good option, not too expensive and still in very good form. But he gets injured a lot recently and he isnt young anymore. But if Mou trusts him, I have no word against it. Players like Lukaku or Benteke are just not fitting this team Im afraid. We need striker with good ball control and link up play who can destroy West Ham on his own. We need striker who can win us games against small teams, our biggest weakness atm.

Fernando doesn't play as well in a double pivot. Don't know if he'd fit.

[LondonPride1905 236]

Costa and Shaw. I'm expecting a midfielder to departh though. It may be Ginkel , it may be Obi, but there will be space there made for someone young.

[The Skipper 20,593]

Still no real playmaker in there.

We don't need a real playmaker in there if both of the players in there are adept at passing. Witsel has long ball passing capabilities, as has Matic, combined it would be good enough IMO.

[AswinR 96]

agree shaw would be a gr8 addition but plz dont forget patrick van aanholt ....hes very solid and good going fwd.... he looks like a mourinho player...

our defense is set for atleast for the next 5 years after that...not a penny to be spend!!

piazon is doing gr8 at vitesse as a attacking player(more like cr7 @ real madrid in positioning) but agreed its a lesser league.......

a striker is a must....so why not cavani? we are going to make 3 times more this season from tv rights from last season!! we are going to get 50 mils every season thanks to the jersey deal...we could spend about 75 mils and record a profit in the books!! why d hell not cavani?

btw heard van persie( rumour from goal) wants to return to arsenal ...... (disgusting prick!!)

[dkim2 73]

People need to come back down to earth. Heavy spending Chelsea days were long gone since FFP. Yes, we will get new shirt deal and so on but we had 50m loss in last 2 years and we can't just go out and spend money like City or PSG. Look our spending in last few years. Investing on young players and prospects. We did have chance to splash 50+ for Cavani or Falcao but in the end we never went for it. Witsel, Hulk, Cavani and so on. We never really engaged to those players with insane price tags. Plus, no club in earth can match PSG in financial wise. They do not need money. They do not give shit about FFP as UEFA is watching their back.

[Jose M 140]

Would love to see us buy CAVANI. Unlikely at best, but to be honest Chelsea always seems to surprise us all with their investments in front men.

Excited to see LUKAKU and PIAZON come back next season.

3. Alfred Finbogasson. 25 yo. 20 goals in 18 matchs in Eredivisie. Price-Tag : £ 10 mil. weakness : he played in Eredivisie,,if you know what i mean??? but,,suarez from that league too....

4. Alexander Lacazette. 22 yo. 12 goals in 21 matchs in Ligue-1. Priice - Tag : £ 12 mil. weakness : No data

1. Rossi is a class player but his knee reminds me of Essien. This is the third time his knee got blown up.

2. I do not know much about Berardi guy but he is Italian and his parent club is Juventus. Not too realistic.

3. Bony is struggling in PL so... I doubt about this guy as well. Suarez was rare exception IMO.

4. Could be a great (cheap) option. Young, talented, and is really breaking out this year.

5. Griezmann never played at ST so I am not too sure of him. His preferred position and where he likes to attack are exactly that of Hazard so pass.

6. I love some Mandzukic but will Pep sell final piece to Mourinho who is his biggest enemy/rival whatever we call it?

I would add Jackson Martinez and Christian Benteke as well.
