RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I still think that Cahill might hurt himself and that leaves us thin on the back line already.Fixed quickpassnmove 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickpassnmove 924 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 FixedLooks like I wrote this a few hours too soon. Today our striker position looks dubious with another prolonged hamstring problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 What saddens me most is that in this crappy summer we are undoing all the great work of our past few season of early, clever punctual signings that won us a hard earned league title. Failing to replace JT, Iva, Mikel, Ramires with quality players will set us back at least two years in our development as a club. As all of you I would at least be curious to know the reason. Anyways, even if we manage to get those two defenders in we will only roughly have recovered the level of last season. Iva, JT are slowly declining there is no denying that. Courtois, Oscar, Hazard and maybe even Willian might improve a bit but that is no way proportionate to the huge leaps of improvement all our rivals have made. Also with signing a cb we deviate from that stupid one in one out policy anyways so fuck it. Unionjack 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illmatic 901 Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 The young defender for whom I spoke some weeks ago as a great prospect to have on the target, Jesus Vallejo, has signed for Real Madrid, 6 M€. In a couple years will be one the best, great business for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukakutoStamford 779 Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 If I remember correctly, there was a press conference where Pellegrini said Denayer (young CB) and Iheanacho (young ST) would be promoted to the first team as squad depth. I haven't seen too much of Iheanacho...but Denayer looks promisingPromising is an understatement for Denayer he's a potential world class defender and I'd take him over any U23 defender including Varane and Stones at this point. He'll be starting for City later this year at age 20 Unionjack 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be starting for City later this year at age 20And with Kompany and Mangala from last season (+Demichelis) it's not very hard to be the better than them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unionjack 7,532 Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Roman Abramovich attended the wedding of Jorge Mendes over the weekend along with some of the most powerful men in football including the presidents or owners of all of Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Valencia and PSG. Transfer chitter-chatter over the very finest canapés, a great secret mission for Abramovich.Just like his mission to get Witsel eh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cadenza666 221 Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Jose Mourinho and Chelsea could regret lack of transfer activityhttp://www.espnfc.com/club/chelsea/363/blog/post/2546492/jose-mourinho-chelsea-transferswhilst we are looking at strengthening defensively.need to address the glaring issue in central midfield before the season starts, the quality after Fabregas/Matic is miles apart. otherwise not looking forward to deja vu in Europe / sitting back against 10 men at home.

Reddish-Blue 2,701 Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Promising is an understatement for Denayer he's a potential world class defender and I'd take him over any U23 defender including Varane and Stones at this point.
