OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Well if he is similar to KDB then no point in signing him i would rather give KDB the chance who is more then ready imo.De Bruyne is not more ready than Lewis Holtby, Holtby is 24 and has much more experience having been a regular in the Bundesliga for 4 or 5 years now. If hes available for 6-8 million get him, could be a bargain. He was great at Mainz, he played as a #10 / winger there though but this was 2 or 3 years ago. Hes a much more all round player now by the looks of it now, playing as a CM for Schalke. Maybe sign him on a pre-contract agreement in fact?

KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Ba and Villa in? That would turn our strike force from pathetic into very good. Ironically my strikeforce in FIFA 13 is Villa, Ba and Torres O_O Mind = Blown. Sheva. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Skipper 20,609 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Lescott has a 8m price tag and is a great CB. In my opinion, that is. Would be a good signing.. for that money.Yeah, why not if we need a 5th choice centre back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means I'd have to that face every week. There is a reason I don't watch ManCity and England games, and it's this man's mug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 We need a match winner. Obviously we score lot of goals, close to Barca if you check stats. But problem is when we are winning everyone in our team scores, if we are losing, no one scores out of 100 chances. In difficult times, we dont have calm finisher. Mata, Hazard, Torres,..they are all very inconsistent and cant push team forward. City has Yaya Toure and United has Rvp/Rooney. They score when its needed and they wont give up until last second of match. They play 100% in big and small games, giving a team consistent performances. We dont have such mentaly and physicaly strong player. In january, we need to buy someone similar to that. Either in striker or midfielder. We need someone with AUTHORITY and big (fear)respect among opponents. Since there are no realy experienced class strikers available, we might go after experienced midifelder. The only player that is 'available' and was linked with us is Fellaini. Hard working, die hard, can run forever and plays anywhere in midfield. Not sure if he fits our style, but if he somehow will sucess here, he will give us some power, stamina and ahead of all he proved he can score for team when needed (against City, United,...). Also he is PL proven and would adopt here quickly. If we can get him for 20mio, why not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Valid points but Fellaini will cost a lot more than £20m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorontoChelsea 4,064 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 If A.Cole leaves, cheeky bid for Baines? It actually makes sense. We're running low on homegrown players and Baines is one of the best left backs in the world. Personally, I think keeping Cole for another year or two and watching how Bertrand develops (and maybe buying someone like Luke Shaw to compete with him) makes the most sense.

Personally, I think keeping Cole for another year or two and watching how Bertrand develops (and maybe buying someone like Luke Shaw to compete with him) makes the most sense.I agree. Some fans don't really care but I just wish we had more home-grown players, and especially players from our own academy breaking into the first-team but we might have to wait a few more years for that to happen.Regarding, I'm not sure he will ever reach Ashley Cole's level, it's hard to judge. I can imagine Chelsea selling him within the next few years and buying a Spanish left-back (maybe Monreal?) to replace him. Or Portuguese, someone like Coentrao.

Rmpr 8,977 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 That's interesting, i usually trust what i read on the Telegraph so will be keeping an eye on how that develops.Seems I was right (as usual, lol). I said if we got into the race for Ba we would have a pretty good chance of getting him.BOOOM, the day after....We are favourites to sign him!
