Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 You never know how quickly things can go... But if he signs... you can go tell your friends how to correctly spell his name!Whi(pped cream) + Sel(ma) => Just the way you would pronounce this. The only thing you still have to is add a T in between!Whi + T + Sel Good luck boys! Now go and brag to your friends + Having thought about this for 3 days now, I have still have not found a different way to pronounce Witsel that does not sound completely braindead. Honestly I have no clue what can possibly go wrong pronoucing that name. I think even people in East Germany or Bavaria would get this right.

The Chels 2,502 Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Nope. I was replying to the question of how Witsel might be pronounced incorrectly. Pronouncing it as wit-sul (like it being trah-vul instead of trah-vel for travel) seems an easy mistake to make Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a lot of you guys don't want to see the broken leg of Marcin Wasilewski. Just might as well skip to sec 00.24!Here you have both his name and last name!

OneMoSalah 8,889 Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Never mind how his name is pronounced (although I'd assume its just Witsel), if we sign him to stop confusion we will just call him Reginald. Azpilicueta is Dave. Witsel will be Reginald. Simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illmatic 901 Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 I don't care how pronounce his name. I only wait that Zenit will-sell to wit-sel, with-(a)sell more cheaply as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unionjack 7,531 Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 I just dont know what to believe but I like the guy and can imagine if he linked up with Matic/Cescy it would work great. Can always hope.http://metro.co.uk/2015/07/21/agent-reveals-chelsea-in-talks-with-zenit-over-axel-witsel-transfer-deal-5305851/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 22.9m sound reasonable for s.o. of his quality. I just wonder whether we will sign him despite no cm leaving. Really should to have a chance of retaining the league. Without a major signing I doubt we will win a major trophy with our rivals strengthening like this. Witsel will not be the difference to do but he is exactly the kind of option for the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
!Hazard! 3,394 Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 I think Mikel will leave if Witsel comes. Having Matic, Cesc, Witsel, Ramires, Mikel whilst giving Loftus-Cheek some real playing time doesn't seem like a realistic scenario. Jose usually wants 2 players for each position and without Mikel we would have Matic-Witsel, Cesc-Ramires and Loftus-Cheek playing in the pivot as well as no.10 together with Oscar, Cesc and Willian. There is literally no need for Obi there when we remember that Zouma will also be there in case of an emergency.But yeah, I am all for signing Witsel and offloading Mikel.

Madmax 9,219 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 So another year of Ramires being unable to make 5 yard passes and Mikel only making 5 yard passes.Edit - Before the 'respect' brigade jumps in, a disclaimer - love them both for what they do offer and have in the past but think it is time to inject some freshness in there along with RLC.

RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 And thenI will not surprised if Mikel stay and we ended up signing no other midfielder now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
