termninja 5,290 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Have we actually been seriously linked with him at any point? I mean has his agent said anything? I'm not really following this section that closely anymore as it takes very little to get a story goingHe has a number of quiet stalkers I believe. Media dust is really not needed now when his price is high as hell already. I am pretty sure there's a fat file on him standing on AVB's desk right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Ay 66 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 For all the money Abramovich has put in Chelsea, we've never really had a fantasy player on par with a Zidane or Kaka. Only player that I can think of that came close was Robben (and now Mata, to a certain extent). If we can put in 50 million quid for Torres, I'm sure we can pay the 40 million or so for Hazard. He's still young, with bags of potential. A Hazard or Gotze (or both!) please. But Chelsea being Chelsea, they'll probably buya Rodwell for a grossly inflated price. Our track record has proven that...SWP...Duff...Torres (am a big fan, but he's clearly lost something in the last two years...). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 For all the money Abramovich has put in Chelsea, we've never really had a fantasy player on par with a Zidane or Kaka.Isn't that a testament to the team Mourinho built? Instead of individuals, we got players who would make the team world-class not themselves. That's why we differ from City, they got the players world-class, established big names. We bought names that were coming up, chased by some, and bought them to fit the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't do it on their own but are the main men. We really need some magic, Mata can be that player but he needs better, mostly right types, support.

Peace. 4,352 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Man City should create their own league. I'm sure they'll soon have enough players to make a second division. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike 12,049 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 it'd be bordering the impossible to say no to Zizou knocking on your front door and asking you to play for Madrid.If I ever found myself in this situation I would probably have a heart attack from the shock.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 I'm really starting to fucking hate City. It will only get worse if they sign Hazard.Why? We did exactly the same between 2003 and 2007, don't be hypocritical! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nadavTKL 1,787 Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I think we should come to Lile (probably in the summer) with a 50 milions offer for Hazard+Sow. That would be the best deal in the market imo.Two kind of players that we need so much, young (well Sow is 25), and players who wants to make the next step in their careers.Just think of a lineup with those two, Mata, Sturridge, Ramires and Essien... champions again maybe? well ill keep dreaming..

Lampy 110 Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 This Hazard talk pisses me off, cause he seems perfect for us which of course means we won't get him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
