Unionjack 7,531 Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 I quite like him and I'd much prefer him as a backup option instead of Mikel There was a photo came out at Euros before the links to Bat Sushi came out of Eden with Bat Sushi amd Witsel with Eden kida looking back at the lads with his thumb up. The links came out a couple days after so I thought they were just putting 2+2 together to get BS. BUT.... then he signed. So who knows.....Id be well vhuffed to get Kante or Nainggolain AND Witsel. I'm not greedy. It's my dream - let me dream it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid Angel 2,130 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Average passer of the ball and less than average defending. Stay away. Belongs to a club like Everyon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhForAGreavsie 6,092 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 On 27 June 2016 at 2:43 PM, Yeboii said: Why are Chelsea insisting that our midfield purchase is a Belgian? Surely there must be other midfielders out there that are better and younger. Where does it say that? Just because there are strong indications that we have bid for one Belgian, and have been linked with another, how do we extrapolate from that to saying that Chelsea "insist" that we only want to sign Belgians? The link with Witsel is scarcely credible anyway. He is constantly linked because he clearly wants to move back to western Europe and his club almost certainly would prefer the cash over his talents. I agree with you that there are alternative potential midfield targets out there. The club must be aware of this too and I'm certain they won't be ignoring any option just because he isn't Belgian. ?

[Di Marzio] #CFC I'll say one thing for the bloke, he's got a diligent agent. All this constant media commentary is a sure sign of at least one agent on the case. I say at least one because I suspect that there is also an agent working for Zenit trying to engineer a move. I don't think it would take many millions of euros before any club would rather have the cash than this player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unionjack 7,531 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 And with Rami gone,Mikel up for sale at £6mill LINKS with Matic AND Cescy sodding off then we are going to be in the shite even more than we are now. I know its very unlikely we lose Secy and or Matic but a top B2B would be greati. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoSalah 8,889 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 3 or 4 years ago I'd of taken him in a heart beat due to his huge potential but now I don't think he's half as what he's made out to be, his career stalled because he chose lots of tax free money over waiting for the right move, fair enough this happens on a regular now but I think he surely understands what a mistake it was to join Zenit.
