The Skipper 20,609 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 "Chelsea tax" has been irrelevant for years now. We pay big money players simply because we're a big club. Any big club would've paid the same for Oscar/Lucas etc. it isn't just Chelsea who do. Stingray and Rmpr 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NiclasCFC 2,582 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 In: Jagielka, Cabaye, Capoue, Schurrle, KDB and Lukaku back from loan.Out: Benayoun, Mikel, Marin, Malouda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Realistically?Likely outs: Turnbull, Hilario, Paulo, Lampard(?), Benayoun, Malouda, Marin(?)Likely ins: A new goalkeeper, a deep lying playmaking midfielder, a defensive midfielder, KDB back, Schurrle, A striker/Lukaku back.I honestly don't think Torres is gonna go next season.Next season:GK:Cech, x, Blackman(promoted)Defenders:Azpilicueta, Ivanovic, Terry, Luiz, Cahill, Cole, Bertrand.Midfield:x, x, Mikel, Ramires, KDB, Romeu, Oscar, Lampard(?)Forwards:Torres, Lukaku(?), Ba, Hazard, Mata, Schurrle, KDB, Oscar, Moses.25 man squad. This is what we can realistically expect next season I think and it isn't a bad squad make up at all. It strong in all areas.Don't forget we potentially have the likes of Kakuta, Kalas, Omeruo, PvA, Chalobah and Josh coming back too but I think they'll all go out on loan again.

Backstreet09 499 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 If we miss out on schurrle(unlikely at the moment) would anyone like kevin miralles?I generally prefer Schurrle but if we missed out on him. I'd be equally happy if we get Kevin Mirallas, I mean he's awesome, he's a bit injury prone but we could work it out with clever rotations.and that would save us a lot of money xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcao is as good as the two of them combinded, but I'd also rather have Schürrle and Lewa, cos they are younger and got mor epotential to develop yet. but would Lewa only cost 24m ? My guess is more 25-30m adn that is rather expensive for a striker who does not always remember correctly where the goal is? Maybe Pierre-Emerick aubameyang would be a better option, he is so fuckin pacy, can also play winger and does record even more assists than Lewa...

Not quite sure why you think he doesn't know where the goal is? I would say 25 million, although if we did try and sign him they would probably raise the price.

BVB and their style create so many chances, a more clinical striker would score more than 40 goals per season. Their conversion rate is theri major flaw. Aubameyang would cost less than 20m and is faster and more clinical, better header. He is Utd-bound anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewandowski is much better than aubameyang. Im not saying i wouldn't like aubameyang but Lewandowski is a fantastic player and could play for any team.

He has shown promise but I find him inconsistent and he tends to fade out of games in the second half (stamina). I believe he isn't Chelsea material.

Not you but in general, there are wildly optimistic 'Transfer Outs' from the fans. At best only the end of contract guys are leaving I suppose Korea and The Skipper 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
