Kaká

[Slam Dunk 1,442]

Kaka's mother is going to be in London for a few days in August apparently, not moving here permanently. Can't see him joining us to be honest.

I'd imagine he'd go back to Italy (Milan probably) if he were to leave Real.

Ive always loved Kaka and his playing style and still enjoy the game more if he comes on as a sub for Madrid. However, he's just not what we need! He'll never reach the peak he had when he was at A.C mainly because he's been out of regular football for so long now..

However...

He must still have that quality and magic within him...

I think he should only be valued at £20 million or less. This would never happen though! It'll be £40m!

The talk is that he would be joining on loan if he were to move.

I wouldn't be too averse to that happening, just means we would have to pay his exorbitant wages though.

Indeed. Real Madrid would definitely make us pay the wages in full..

Still, it's better than forking out £20million+

Good point... Maybe this is isn't true then..

Some media talking as if its a done deal.

Personally I think his best days are behind him, and I bet he gets injured staright away

I dont think we have signed him yet!

But dont see the point of getting Kaka when we want to reduce the average age of our team. He is injury prone. we should be looking for player in 24-27 age group

Maybe it was Tottenham

I'm betting on West Ham.

I've been thinking about Kaka and I've come the the conclusion that he would actually be a decent signing if we bring him on loan. Why? I'll tell you, he could play 1 or 2 seasons while Piazon and Mceachran continue their development and are ready to brake into the first team and he could aid them in their development as footballers.

Besides this, we'd profit from shirt sales and get a few more people check our club a bit better if you know what I mean. With all this fuss about Torres, there have been many more people around noticing Chelsea, and you could see it here simply by the number of new people that joined.

So, as for a loan I'd be pretty satisfied, as for a transfer, anything over 20million is too much. I'd rather see Snejider, Ganso, Pastore or Hamsik in our team. They would perhaps be more expensive then Kaka but they would be much better signings. And let's not forget 2 most promising young midfielders we've got, Piazon and Mceachran.

Pros :

Still has the technical ability to cut it at this level

Should settle quickly considering the number of Brazilians here and the fact that he's worked with Carlo (if he's still with us in August)

Enables rotation

Helps the Chelsea brand image

Cons :

Transfer or loan, massive wages either way

No Premiership experience

Doesn't have the legs anymore

Susceptible to frequent and lengthy injuries (and with our medical record, this is a major disadvantage)

Heralds a return to the dreaded diamond/christmas tree

29 yo, not exactly a signing for the future (n/a if on loan)

No for me.

Cant believe the objection to a move for Kaka on here, its Kaka! Former world player of the year Kaka. I wont lie, Im biased here, he is one of my all time favourite players and Id absolutely love to see him play in a Chelsea jersey, I think he would be a fantastic addition to the squad, imagine a forward line with Torres up top flanked by Sturridge and a quick winger and Kaka behind them, fantasy football it would be.
