didierforever 7,349 Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 I am still not convinced with Torres but it is evident that the club has decided to give him 1 more season to prove what he can do. We also have Sturridge and Lukaku competing for striker position and I can't see any Drogba replacements coming in at the moment.At the moment, our right wing doesn't have a player which prefers to play there. Malouda is on the exit doors, Marin will needs time to adapt and hasn't been really impressive at Werder for some time while Mata and Hazard will occupy the left and central attacking positions. KDB may go out on loan, but even if he stays, he prefers to play in the middle and on the left. From here, you can see that we could really use a player who can cause havoc on the right wing and for the reasons I wrote couple of posts back, Hulk is the best player for that.He is expensive, but we are rich and the transfer is dragging on since the club is not letting Porto milk us anymore while they are playing hardball. Remember what happened when we signed David Luiz. At a certain point it looked we turned away and negotiations broke down, but in the end Benfica had to lower their price and we signed him.Read this.i dont really care of thread derailing because i simply am not interested. if u can only read my persie comment but simply ignore the big and the major part of my argument in which i have return the whole of the chelsea squad then i feel i have hardly done anything wrong. u read what u wanted to and ignored the main part.returning back to our argument, if we our rich does it mean we simply throw away the money? i am not saying hulk will be useless but not worth it. even 30m is not worth it. plus we need to give torres a leeway. hulk will threaten him whereas sturridge and lukaku will never be given the role of no.1 striker. we let drogba go for this reason (that is what i feel) and bringing hulk would just be stupid. as for right wing we might not have a true right winger but we have got a number of options, rambo, marin,benayoun/malouda, and whhile every1 might forget it but also kakuta.

TacticalBlues 2,817 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 So the other day Lalkovic said this:Milan Lalkovic @LalkovicMilanCan't say anything yetRumors are he is in Portugal and earlier skysports said this:@SkySportsNews: Chelsea are closing in on the biggest deal of the summer so far. We'll tell you who, and for how much, from 6amI'm really thinking the board have been working on a deal for Hulk. Oscar can't be the biggest since Hazard was singed also, they're both big but in economic terms Hulk's valuation seem's to fit the bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosnian Blue 2,471 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Nothing on their website or twitter about that.edit: my bad, they did tweet that yesterday evening, but it's over 10 hours past the 6 am mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oscar can't be the biggest since Hazard was singed also, their both big but in economic terms Hulk's valuation seem's to fit the bill.Two hours ago Lalkovic tweeted "Changed england for 37 degreess portugal hello !!! Haha" so I guess it's somewhat confirmed already that he has gone to Portugal. No info on the club and whether or not it's a permanent deal or a loan. However, I'm having a very hard time believing that all this is somehow related to a deal for Hulk, but stranger things have happened I suppose.

Muzchap 8,966 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 LOL - SkySports obviously had a 'story' from a source - and either the 'source' back-pedalled and lied, or the story needed to be supressed for whatever reason.If there really is a story - it'll be out soon (next 48 hrs)If there is no story, then we'll constantly be linked to pregnant women, expecting to give birth to the new Messi...
