BlueLyon 9,359 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 This could be one of our most important summer transfer windows next to 2012. I hope we do our business as early as possible and get everybody settled down. One thing this past season has shown is that leaving things till January can really hurt one's season. No matic, No salah. It creates complacency as players know they will start/miss certain games for rest/rotation purposes. I just hope we get Shaw, first things first. And then top class signings in CM and ST. Honestly kind of nervous to see if the club see the same things we do in our team's weaknesses.Mou as experienced as he is, he should know better that Ba, Torres and Etoo wont be enough to lead the line. I thought he didnt bought striker because he would give Lukaku chance next year, but that looks unlikely now. Its not like there were no strikers available...Cavani as our long term target for example. Expensive yes, but this is football today. If we bought Cavani, we would probably win a title or two and got all that money back. Blue-in-me-Veins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DROGBAtheGOAT 29 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 I really think we need to sell Lukaku. I would much rather have Costa and someone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't work the deal. should have gone for someone younger (23-29) like Negredo, Dzeko than Eto'o but meh, atleast Eto'o performed in the big games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quickpassnmove 924 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 If Chelsea don't get this transfer window right and start playing football instead of dribble-n-look or -park two buses-, I don't see all young players really having the heart to stay. Sure, they will stay for money, but as soon as Chelsea fall out of the Champions League, what have CFC got other than the money? Chelsea did not have the squad (strikers, center midfielders) at the beginning of this season, so it's no surprise how they've played this season. Another season like this one and I don't see a reason for some of these big name young players to stay. Doesn't matter if that sounds like a lack of heart or dedication; it's just how it is.Sorry to say, but if you think players should WANT to wait around while Chelsea continue to play as poorly as they have for years since Duff and Robben were with us in 2005 (aside from some moments under Ancelotti, I suppose), you will be asking too much from a bunch of internationals who have more on their minds in life and their careers than just CFC --let alone that this generation of footballer is not mentally like the Golden Generation nor others before.It's up to CFC and Jose to get a balanced squad in this summer and get this club to start playing football again instead of being the 2 billion-pound club that is afraid to lose its CL spot and that cannot play some quick passes in transition and the final 3rd to cause problems for opponents. Stop being the slow club, the ponderous attack side. DDA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

didierforever 7,349 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 since the striker has been earmarked, who do u guys think to be the new CM. that is one player we need as much as a good striker. i personally would love rakitic.vidal/pogba/witsel/modric simply are not in our price bracket i feel. which leaves a very few good options. kroos is obviously another option.what say?

Duppy Conqueror 1,557 Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Outs -Lampard,Torres,Ba(maybe Eto'o) Mikel,Schwarzer.In - Shaw,Costa,Mandzukic(maybe)Plus bringing back some of our loan outs,promoting from within,Van Ginkel returning from injury etc..I think that is more likely than a overhaul.
