Wishlist Hulk

[Jype 6,398]

De Rossi's wages, Hulk's wages. Cavani's wages ? - 100k, 150k, 150k

Cavani - De Laurentis has said only if 63m is met. Torres has to be sold, and even though we'd want to sell, he may pull a Malouda and decide to stay, havent you seen in recent weeks he keeps on talking about staying till the end of his contract because he knows noone else would pay the wages he's currently on anywhere!

Essien is a Jose favourite, daddy wont sell him. Marin -2/3m? Kakuta/Bruma? haha doubt theyd fetch much, we arent exactly Porto at selling so we doubt we'd make much there.

Malouda, Benayoun, Ferreira, Hilario compared to the wages of the Cavani,Rossi,Hulk ...would cover a fraction.

Personally, De Rossi and Hulk we can afford, not all 3 (unless we're giving f**k all about FFP)

Malouda £80k, Benayoun £70k, Ferreira £40k, Hilario £20k all released. That's £10m a year saved on players who didn't even play 15 games combined this season.

If only we managed to get rid of Torres, it would save £80-100k a week from our current wage bill even if we had to compensate for some of his salary for the remainder of his contract upon joining a club who wouldn't pay him what we pay him. Marin should go for around £5m and would also take £40k off the wage bill. Essien is a tough one, Mourinho likes the guy but that doesn't mean he's incapable of thinking straight. His wages of around £80-100k a week are too high for someone who won't be a regular starter and if Mourinho could replace him with someone better, I'm fairly sure he would. A transfer fee of around £5m for Essien sounds fair.

I know the youngsters Bruma and Kakuta wouldn't go for much but that's still something. Bruma has been rumoured to be on PSV Eindhoven's radar with the reported fee being somewhere between £4-5m and I suspect Kakuta would go for something similar. Their wages are another £40k off the wage bill.

If we managed to sell all these players, together with the ones being released, it would mean around £450k off the wage bill and maybe £15m in transfer fees excluding Torres, who I'm assuming here could be heading the other way in a part-exchange deal for Cavani if only Napoli are dumb enough to take him. You saying that getting all those players off the wage bill wouldn't cover the wages of three new first team players? I say they would cover them all and more.

FFP means fuck all for us. They exclude all the exceptional items such as youth development etc. which amount to quite a lot for Chelsea so even if we were to post a loss instead of the profit we made last year, we would still be in a position to pass the FFP regulations. Can easily have a net spend of £60m if the total wage bill stays roughly the same and it wouldn't affect our chances of staying clear of problems with the FFP. Also there's a fairly high chance the whole concept of FFP will go down the drain sooner rather than later.

Chelsea make £35million Hulk move after missing out on Radamel Falcao

Yeah, let's bring in a winger because we missed out on a centre forward...

[Heisenberg 1,824]

To win games you have to defend well before attacking well, and if we focus on not conceding rather than scoring more than the opposition we'll again be champions, my point is to buy him isnt the priority and José knows this, we must build a solid defence and midfield, our attacking system only need a new center forward.

[Pizy 18,368]

Not convinced he can excell at the highest level.

Whenever I watch him, mostly for Brazil, he loses possession easily and makes poor decisions when he shoots. Kills a lot of breaks too.

Would rather have a pure winger in the Di Maria mold.

[Beepu 1,714]

He must be regretting moving to Zenit, getting abused and all. "HuH Hulk smash racist Russians"

[Spike 12,049]

Hulk is muscular.

Hulk is strong.

Hulk is fast.

Hulk has powerful left foot.

Hulk can dribble.

But Hulk make bad decisions...

Shoots when Hulk should pass.

Dribbles when Hulk should pass.

Hulk relies on Hulk's pace too much. Without pace, Hulk is nothing.

Hulk can't use right foot.

Hulk's finishing isn't technical, Hulk only relies on power to score.

Hulk is owned by third parties which pushed Hulk to moved to Russia from Portugal. :heart:

Hulk sad now.

[OneMoSalah 8,776]

Evening Standard saying Chelsea will not give Jose the same funds as in 2004, even Mourinho said its not about spending millions but improving the current team. cant see this at all happening, unless we sell Torres, Mikel/Romeu, maybe even Luiz to fund such a crazy team.

But they gave Robbie, who they never had confidence in, 70-80 odd million to sign Hazard, Oscar, Moses, Azpi, Marin etc didn't they? The board also gave AVB near enough 60 million to sign Mata, Lukaku, Cahill and Romeu... he also brought the likes of Christensen, Feruz and Omeruo to the club.

Mourinho will get financial backing, maybe not 300 million but surely close to 100 million to bring in players he feels the team needs this summer if he really, really feels he needs to spend that much.

Any manager that comes here will get financial backing to a certain degree. We are not a lesser club financially.

Hulk rumor again, the speculation season has officially begun.

The board didn't give Robbie 70-80 million to sign Hazard, Oscar, moses and co. They made those signings themsleves for the future of the club. Robbie was just sitting in the hot seat at the time of those players joining. They would have been brought in whatever yhe circumstances of that particular manager farce were.

I love it how they say

However, Mourinho is a big admirer of the versatile Brazilian - who played against England last weekend - who can play on the left of the attack or through the middle.

when his primary position is right wing

AS Monaco target Hulk is apparently close to a 40m move to Chelsea. Zenit have quoted 47m but it looks like #ASM will lose out.

[Mufassir08 2,400]

40m for hulk :banghead:

[Special Juan 27,424]

Crazy money.

Bullshit news from his agent I guess, I could see Monaco spending this much with their transfers so far with Jorge Mendes clients and players with co-ownership like Falcao that seems quite common in Portugal and Spain.

At least I hope so as I'm not a fan of Hulk.

[ulsterchelsea 3,221]

Personally like hulk, think he has all the tools needed to be a success here just needs to work on his decision making at times.

I haven't really seen a lot of Hulk. Only seen him in a Brazil match and he didn't impress but then neither did Neymar!

40m is too much money for him i feel.

[Ankit 3,176]

I guess the Hulk rumors are to put pressure on Leverkusen, to speed up the Schürrle deal.
