Unionjack 7,531 Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 We do still have a slight chance to hijack him. Seems AC Milans reps are flying in to sort a deal out. Couldnt we send Romans jet in and do some Mission Impossible kinda stunt and bring him back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stroey 2,525 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Who is this guy?Started following him 2 days ago since he broke the news about Pedro (and he said he also reported Baba and Falcao before others), also has many pictures with footballers on his twitter. Seems reliable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stroey 2,525 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Maybe. But Ramirez is subnormal whilst luiz next to magic was normal enough to own the shit out of yaya,fernandinho and silvaYeah really miss that feel of having Matic-Luiz pivot to dominate teams. We beat Arsenal and City, but Demichelis started that day in their pivot, that made it a lot easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,889 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 I don't think he's ever been good enough to play here. Obviously if he'd sit on the bench maybe but yet again I don't think he's really kicked on at all since being at Benfica. Matic came here to test himself at a higher level, Hulk and Witsel went to Russia for a fuckload of money.I don't get why you would go from a higher standard of football to a poorer standard of football, even for the money, baffles me. Let him go to Italy, I'd rather we looked elsewhere to be honest, there are better players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last Sicarius 610 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Who is available right now and better than WItsel?For someone Isco or Pogba but for me this is only realistic transfer dat we can do to midfield. He is only for subs will be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Colored Sky 1,807 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 So according to this Dubai guy we are not after Witsel ...But what are other options ? Andre Gomes ? Nainggolan ? That's only two names that I think just, just can be available for the right price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoSalah 8,889 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Who is available right now and better than WItsel?Who said Witsel was available? There are much much better MF players out there than Witsel. He's gonna cost an arm and a leg because he plays for Zenit, who pay him very very well on a long term contract and bought him for a whole lot of money. The fact he's not exactly developed much since going there either it makes no sense to try and buy him from Zenit. He moved to Russia for a huge salary so do you think he's gonna come here on a lower salary, to play a bit part role? I really don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reports of Di Marzio (and others) say an offer of 30-35 million euros will make Witsel available. I dont know if he'll want to come to Chelsea for a squad role, i can only guess he'll take the opportunity to get the hell out of Russia and play for a big club in the Premier League. But i agree its an issue with any CM we might look at because in most games we play with Cesc-Matic and 3 AMs.You didnt named any CM though.

I think Witsel is a decent player and that but really, not exactly Chelsea standard. Maybe say the same of Nainggolan but still. Really gutted we didn't try and get Rakitic to be honest, although it was obvious he was wanted by Barca but a MF of Rakitic - Matic - Cesc would be class. Someone who is rounded like him but also at a high level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
