That's a bit harsh? Yea, he's had a bad first season. But considering we signed him dirt cheap and I don't imagine his wages are that high, he's worth taking another punt on. He's confidence is shot to pieces but he's got ability. If Mou can inspire him, we could have a very good squad player on our hands.

He wasn't really cheap. 8M I think? I can actually see a loan to a German side making the most sense. (Maybe even back to Bremen) Can't imagine anyone paying much for him but if he has a good year where he gets playing time, we could either sell him or bring him back.Right now though, with the depth we have at AM (if KDB and Schurrle are coming) there is simply no playing time for anyone. Even Moses could really struggle to see action.

I think of it this way. We have around 60 games, so 180 total starts from our attacking midfielders. Mata and Hazard are going to start around 45-50 games each (They both started more than that this season) which means that's about 80-90 starts total for Schurrle, KDB, Oscar, and Moses. This is why getting someone like Hulk makes no sense to me. Hulk signing means someone like KDB or Oscar basically never playing. It actually makes no sense on another level as well in that we have 5 players who want to be the centre of the attack. (Mata, Hazard, KDB, Oscar, and Schurrle) There are only so many touches and shots to go around. Yes, Hulk can score, like Schurrle, if he takes 3+ shots a game but those shots just aren't available with Chelsea.

give him a break he's not that bad.

He is not great though. I have seen him a lot at Porto and I never understood the hype around him. Mediocre player with a selfish attitude. KDB/Oscar are so much better than him.

So we lose on about every target we have, for fuck sake

lol who said he was a target? i think he was an option only if schurrle didnt sign. anything more than 25m for Hulk is crazy.

and who did we actually lost in this transfer window?
