Blue Colored Sky 1,807 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 http://www.101greatgoals.com/news/chances-isco-moving-premier-league-high-marca/ There's a small market opening up for offensive positions offering quality we need. Players like Isco, James, Griezmann, Alexis Sanchez, Bernardo Silva, Lemar, Bernardeschi, Berardi are on the move probably with the right offer. If Chelsea somehow end up with Candreva, Perisic or Calhanoglu... Would be taking the piss clearly. But we tried to sign Biabany FFS.

quickpassnmove 924 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 I get the feeling that Chelsea will buy two specific players this summer window if the right people can be bought: a left-sided CM -and- a better playmaking LWB with speed. It seems that most of our CMs prefer being on the right, except Matic and maybe Fabregas, who, it would seem doesn't care either way. So, we need more pace in both the LWB and the LCM --badly, going into another season with more competitions on the horizon (CL, PL, etc.) Otherwise, we need another goalscorer up top pretty badly and if Diego goes somewhere, then it's TWO we need up top. Don't know about CB as we're surely going to use Christensen because it's clear that he's ready and we need to not piss around with him and his potential. IMO, we will be looking for a CB in addition to Christensen returning because we need more height and power instead of Dave playing CB all the time. Hard to say what will happen with Zouma, but Christensen is a better choice for a starter IMHO. So, to summarize: 1 LWB, 1 LCM (both with more pace and playmaking ability), 1, maybe 2 attackers up top, and one CB in addition to Christensen returning. That's 4 or 5 players, depending upon Diego, but 4 definitely. Is this a concensus here, or do we have disagreements? **edit: additionally, it looks to me that RLC is a loan candidate for next season and I don't imagine Ake gets a top spot among next season's CB cadre. Chalobah likely to remain a decent backup to Kante, right side CM. No clue on Musonda and Kenedy.

No clue on Musonda and Kenedy. i hope Musonda stays because we will need a perfect backup for hazard next season with all the fixture like EFL, FA CUP,..... He also plays on that side of an attacking trio. I was a bit surprised when he wasnt in the team for FA cup game against Wolves. He can help release the pressure and the numerous knocks hazard gets. We need to avoid injuries next season. quickpassnmove 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But whoever we do end up getting he needs to be a regular scorer and be a choice of Conte to have his trust. Letrs hope Bats gets sold early on and we dont lose owt on him.

Looking at it from his point of view I'd want to be somewhere who want me and need me to play. But then saying that Conte has brought back more players off loan than I can think of. I can see Christensen coming off loan but whether as a instant starter I'm not sure. Conte will have to gamble and wait to see how the first weeks in preseason goes or hes looking now for a LCB. One choice he needs to make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Juan 28,865 Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 It was a bit silly going for him in the first place, we play with 1 up top and shelling out that amount on him was silly, we would of been better with a Llorente type player in reserve rather than a 30M bench warmer. I like the lad, but it was the wrong club at the wrong time, he needs to be playing regular, he won't get that here. Chelsea? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the lad, but it was the wrong club at the wrong time, he needs to be playing regular, he won't get that here. But whats stopping us from buying the best back up that we can buy? Whats stopping us from using the 2nd striker at some time in the near future in a 3 5 2? Way I see it we either buy the best out n out striker we can buy who would be happy to push,fight whatever for number 1 spot or we buy the best RW we can and give them the freedom and let the front 3 swap places and roam around where they want similar to Eden now. I'm pretty sure we all had the thought of us going 352 when Bats signed up. It just never turned out that way. And tho I really like him as a guy I couldn't tell you much more about him player wise as when we bought him as we just haven't seen enough of the lad to make a gudgement. Conte obviously has.

Nothing is stopping us because as you can see we bought an expensive back up and he's hardly kicked a ball. He's hardly kicked a ball because we play with one striker up top and that man is the hottest striker around right now. For what it's worth having a 30M man on the bench you may as well have a 10M option in his place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wes 7,212 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 We need a good transfer window in the summer if we are to challenge for the CL next season I still think we need 3 or 4 big signings to challenge the likes of Real Madrid Bayern Munich and Barcelona TheIceMan and marflow 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Socur Toxanarosa 145 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Aubameyang is the one we need: world class, plays as striker and rw, fast as it gets and wants to leave Borussia. No good striker would come to be bench warmer, so if we want a great striker, he needs to be a RW too and i can only see Aubameyang, Griezmann and Dybala fitting this profile, with only Auba being attainable.

LAM09 7,100 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 This summer window is probably our biggest in a long while. We'll have to be shrewd and strengthen areas of weakness, if we wish to challenge on all fronts from the get go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea? 892 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 352 is a bad idea as Willian, Hazard and Pedro are all better than any one we can currently put next to Costa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I hear some Marchisio rumours. Even though he is 31 already I would still have him. Brilliant player. The Skipper and 11Drogba 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wouldn't cost a fortune either, because both Sanchez and Ghoulam only have 1 year left on their contract this summer. Fabinho is a quicker version of Matic and have been Monacos best player this season. Ghoulam is quicker then Alonso and is alot better at passing/crossing the ball. Sanchez, Hazard and Costa would be the best attacking trio in the league by far. Sanchez would also be a good backup for Costa as our main striker. 14 hours ago, Chelsea? said: 352 is a bad idea as Willian, Hazard and Pedro are all better than any one we can currently put next to Costa 352 is a very good plan B. We have used it several times this season, last time was against West Ham in the second half. It gives us better control in midfield and provides more cover when we play Fabregas.

Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067 Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 I'll be honest, I've never rated thid kid.. Think he's way too overhyped.. But interesting that Conte & Pep seem to really value this kid. If he were to come here.. He'd definitely be tried as a wing-back right?
