The Skipper 20,609 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Why not just buy Modric?Real wouldn't sell him for a reasonable price and he's getting on a bit now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iseah100 5,612 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Real wouldn't sell him for a reasonable price and he's getting on a bit now.I guess. Who else is like a Modric besides the guy mentioned above? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Skipper 20,609 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 RakiticI personally think he'd struggle with the pace of the PL. He isn't as nifty on the ball as Kovacic and needs more time to think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickpassnmove 924 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 I'm glad some here can stomach watching Internazionale play. I don't have a preference between Rakitic and Kovacic because I've seen neither play enough to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nadavTKL 1,787 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 I read Klopp said Gundogan will not be ready for the WC. I guess he wont move in the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quickpassnmove 924 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 A short list of central midfielders for this summer's window. Please add your own.1. Allan Marques Loureiro, tireless, flexible Brazilian central midfielder who can also play fullback. leader.http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/allan/profil/spieler_126422.html2. Axel Witsel complete center midfielder. http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/443764/Axel-Witsel-reveals-desire-to-move-to-Manchester-United-or-Chelsea3. Ivan Rakitić, captain, leader, two good feet. 4. Mateo Kovačić http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/mateo-kovacic/profil/spieler_51471.html5. Younes Belhanda a center midfielder, not just a good attacker. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Hi4yEbikQY6. I want to ask if anyone thinks Adam Maher can be a viable center midfielder for the Premier League. He seems strong to me and he easily has as much skill as someone like Modric, who was mentioned above in this thread. Or, maybe he's a Ramires with much more skill and better decisions. 7. Fabian Delph has also been on my mind for the past 16 months. English player not with a top club, not old but probably capable of being a top player.

lionsden 4,689 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Are we actually linked with any of these players. what's the point of bringing up and discussing random players that we are never likely to sign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well whenever this thread shows up on the front page I click in anticipation that we have been linked with a player only to find that it's just discussion about random players that aren't even on our radar. but carry on, I will just ignore this thread in future.

quickpassnmove 924 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I'm hoping some here have players to add to my list of central midfielders above. I think Chelsea need to sign TWO CMs in the summer and consider their options from their reserves and loanees for depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joker10 946 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Not really an marquee signing but Morgan Schneiderlin would be a good addition to this side. The Skipper and quickpassnmove 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 6. I want to ask if anyone thinks Adam Maher can be a viable center midfielder for the Premier League. He seems strong to me and he easily has as much skill as someone like Modric, who was mentioned above in this thread. Or, maybe he's a Ramires with much more skill and better decisions. He's a number 10, doesn't really have the capabilities to play in the pivot IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like a girl reading through a 'Star' magazine, transfer rumors are bad for your health mate. iseah100 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
