Strike 7,487 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Let's not jump ahead of ourselves with the KDB predictions. We have no idea if he will fit in the PL or if he even is good enough. I don't think he should be the reason for us not getting another winger. And yes, we badly need one.I wonder what he must be thinking now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Wesley sneijder...CM /CAM...creativ...club in turmoil....world class....dutch ...He'll be 28 this year AND I'm not even sure he can be classified as a 'World Class' player. He really only had that one good season at Inter under Mourinho. Other than that, he's been a disappointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fulham Broadway 17,311 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Apologies if already posted but the Telegraph seems to be straying into The Sun/goal.com territory with this Lion Witch and Wardrobe fantasy bowlocks especially when theres not a shred of evidence http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/chelsea/9166356/Chelsea-sizing-up-80m-summer-move-for-Real-Madrids-Cristiano-Ronaldo-and-Gonzalo-Higuain.html capriccioso and nullabletype 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capriccioso 2,545 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Higuain would be a failure at this club. The golden rule for us with strikers is that he must under no circumstances cost more than 24 million pounds or he will turn out to be a flop.On a more serious note, I just don't think we need to spend 80 million on any one player, let alone a striker. Higuain's not that great anyway, he's no more than a 30 million pound player for mine. Fulham Broadway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike 12,049 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 The following players will bring us sucess.Yohan CabayeNewcastle UnitedPosition - CM (Regista)Appearances - 30Goals - 3Assists - 5The French Xabi Alonso, in my eyes. He sublime passing technique, Free Kick accuracy and contributes a lot defensively. We currently have no player that is similar to Cabaye in our squad and a Regista is absolutely pertinent to our future success.Esteban GraneroReal MadridPosition - CM (Regista)Appearances - 18Goals - 0Assists - 0The much maligned Madridista's first two seasons at Real Madrid were fantastic, however he has found himself out of favour this season. He is very similar to Cabaye, however with a Midfield pair of Cabaye and Granero will not only offer a lot in attack and defense but will control the tempo and of games. Though it should be said Mourinho is regretful that he has put Granero in the situation he is in.Mathieu DebuchyLOSC LillePosition - RB (Attacking)Appearances - 31Goals - 5Assists - 1A position that has felt the wrath of Chelsea fans since Paulo Ferreira's second season. Debucy is your typical modern Fullback, likes to attack and is obliged to defend. Luckily he has great stamina so he attack and defend with ease. Better the Gregory Van Der Wiel and less injury prone that César Aspilicueta, Debucy may be our only hope to fill the dreaded RB position.Eden HazardLOSC LillePosition - Winger / AM (Trequartista)Appearances - 40Goals - 15Assists - 11No young player in Europe (maybe besides Mario Götze) currently generates such a massive circle jerk among fans. Fast, technical, dynamic, genius, there simply isn't enough adjectives to describe the Belgian. Every knows want he can do, and everyone knows why he is a desitable transfer.Edison CavaniS.S.C. NapoliPosition - Striker (Target Man)Appearances - 38Goals - 28Assists - 5El Matador... if Juan Mata is a matador for his agility and nimbleness; then Cavani is a matador because of his tenacity and ferocity. He reminds me a lot of Drogba but truly is a completely different animal, but mark my words he will surpass Drogba if he signs for us. Work ethic, stamina, power, pace, technique; he is complete.Ezequiel LavezziS.S.C. NapoliPosition - Winger / AM (Trequartista)Appearances - 32Goals - 10Assists - 7Lavezzi is the most important player in Napoli. His stats don't scream it, but his pace, passing and dribbling contribute massively to every scoring oppurtunity created by Napoli. Think David Silva except ten times faster and is mostly restricted to the wing positions, he is that good. capriccioso 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Abramovich 175 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 The following players will bring us sucess.I would be delighted with a summer like this, add maybe one or two cheap young players in the Hoilett mold and we'll be back on track to being the best in England.

Wavy Crockett 190 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Ronaldo & Higuain? #ThankYouBasedAbramovichbut on a serious note Hazard is prolly the only one I rate that's been linked with us and he seems the most unlikely now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superblue 6,372 Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 If we take money out of the equation (i.e. Roman is prepared to spend it) then I don't think anyone in their right mind would reject Ronaldo coming to us if he was prepared to leave Real and join us. He would easily be the best player and most potent attacking force in the world if a certain Lionel Messi wasn't about. I think he is the type of player who you don't need to build a team around, he will score goals whatever.But being realistic, I can't see us going for him. We may need to think outside the box a little this summer without Champions League football to offer.I would love us to buy Cabaye, I think he is exactly what we need and a cheaper alternative to Modric. I would have loved for us to move for Inler at Napoli because I think he would be a perfect fit too but with no Prem experience, 3 years older than Cabaye and likely to cost more, I would prefer to poach from Newcastle!We must sort out our attacking options aswell, particularly on the wings. Mata in the centre makes perfect sense but until we have the options out wide it will never be as successful as it should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mata in the centre makes perfect sense but until we have the options out wide it will never be as successful as it should be.I truly agree with you on this point. Cabaye has done a really good performance in Newcastle this season, so I would rather go for him than Modric. I would also like us to get Demba Ba, it is said that his buy-out clause is around 11 million, so that would probably also be a good buy.As I have said before, we do not have to build a team with worldclass players, just look at how Mourinho did... but I have to agree, it would be a perfect team if we also got Hazard or Götze with the likes of Cabaye and Demba Ba.
