BLionheart 516 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 well i know a lot of people here don't think this should be a top priority signing because we have two world class defenders in ivanovic and alex to pair up with terry but this guy is different class .as pure personal comparison he might be just as good as alex and iva if not better but the difference he will make is , he will be a great partner for Terry , with his pace and superb reading of the game also his impressive ball distribution from the back he will add a lot of missed quality to our backline .it's not just that but also he can comfortably play anywhere in the back 4 , so with bosingwa's current form and ferrera who has proved to be a liability we need iva switch back to RB and we will have alex as a sub who will rotate with terry and luiz .we will not have to worry about our back 4 within the next 3 or 4 years when terry and alex starts to age although i believe terry will continue to play at the highest level till his late 30s , and by that time bruma should be more than ready to partner with luiz .keep in mind that luiz is only 23 years , we will hopefully get at least 7 or 8 years of great defender and then we can sell him for 10-15 millions . who would say that is bad businesses !!

Term-X 7,891 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 he will be the most expensive defender in the club's history, and will become the fifth player to be signed for more than £20mBenfica have also enquired about the availability of striker Salomon Kalou, but Chelsea are ruling out letting the 25-year-old Ivory Coast international leave under such terms.FFS.:censored: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrismada9 1,948 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 it will probably be Ferreira that's going then! Or Bruma or even van Aanholt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
We Hate Scouse 10,326 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if it was Bruma.He would become 5th choice CB. He wouldn't get a look in at the first team for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson 358 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 As I say about most youngsters, I would not dare to let them leave permanently. Loan is always best, get experience first team football and sharpen them up for us. Especially Kakuta, Bruma and McEachran. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLionheart 516 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 well , if we actually sign this guy with kalou going the other way , i will walk around in my neighborhood naked .but i know if this is to be true , then ferrera will be the one to leave . not bad either ehh :eyebrows: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bir_CFC 3,455 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 First, everyone is pissed we are going after mediocre players like Pienaar and Yossi, then they are pissed we are paying too much for Luiz. Seems like you want the best players in the world for bargain prices.Imo, awesome deal!Plus, I think this might help us get Neymar, as he'll be able to play with 2 of his regular Brazil teammates.

Madmax 9,219 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Rajkovic/Ferreira look the likeliest makeweights. It's good that we've made it clear we're not interested in permament moves for Bruma/PvA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magic weeds 446 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Rajkovic's work permit thing makes it a possibility to join Benfica. Any other youngster would be a loan deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calculatingInfinity 1,472 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 It's hard to find a quality CB who isn't cup tied and it's great to get Sideshow Bob now so not only do we have more width in the defense but he can also get used to playing for chelsea for the new season and champions league.

RX8 40 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I will be Happy if this guy come to us in the next 2 days...It would be a Great Week for us if we win today and tomorrow David Luis is a Chelsea Player!!-..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
