Jase 43,479 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Rudi Garcia has confirmed Debuchy wants to leave. Will only let him go IF they can get a replacement though.http://www1.skysport...rm-over-Debuchy"Mathieu wants to go," Garcia confirmed to RMC."But we do not have a plan for him to leave, he will not go unless I find a replacement of the same level."And he is a international player, he will cost - we will need to bring in a right-sided player of the same calibre and that requires a lot of money."If we find that, it will cost and we will have to pay that."Mathieu is one of my leaders, one of my major players and he is an example to follow."I understand his desire to leave, but we must find a replacement - my role is not to put my team in jeopardy."

SeB 1,281 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 This guy is 26 isn't he?Not very young for a right back.. then again who else is available... van der Wiel? .. no thanks!I don't see your point. A club aiming high only purchases finished products. And to be honest, putting aside the exceptions, it's hard to find a defender who'd be mature enough in his play before being ~25 years old : defensively, tactically and with good rythm management (when to go forward, when to keep the ball, when to clear...)Bosingwa was also 26 when Chelsea signed him and yet he was really average tactically when he arrived.It's not like when you promote a young striker to end the games, to start Cup games etc... United's Fabio, Arsenal's Jenkinson or even our own Mikel 5 years ago were often weak links, in big games by example, because they couldn't handle pressure. Because those roles are very important roles on the pitch (I don't mean striker isn't but you rarely lose a game after a striker's individual mistake) and you can't put a young player only for the useless perspective "to promote youth" (especially if you have high targets)You have to know what you want: purchasing "young exciting prospects" (considering that younger the player is, the more it's be assimilated to a bet) and becoming a post-formation club with the aim to sell players 2 or 3 times the price they were purchased. Enjoying a busy Academy and because of the lack of funds, playing youth every week and be condemned to osccilate between the bottom and the top of the table (even in a whole unique season).Or, like Chelsea, purchasing £10M+ players, enjoying sporting success and coming one day to the point to letting go some players for free or a ridiculous fee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanicus 5,208 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 @SeB: His heading is amazing considering his height, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeB 1,281 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Yes, we can say that but it's a matter of timing rather than height. He's a very good athlete, not only to repeat runs but also to win header with a great detente (is it the right word ? lol)He's only 1.77m in fact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stats 7,156 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 He ticks all the boxes for me. We got Bosingwa for a stupid price and we end up releasing him. Debuchy has been a revelation at the Euros and we can get him cheaper than £10m, why not, I hope we make a bid for him and him and Brana can rotate the RB position. With all respect to Newcastle, he surely would pick us over them. I hope we get Debuchy so we have 2 quality RB at the club. You would have thought France would of miss Sagna but with Debuchy's form at Euros he may find it hard to regain his place. Whoever gets this player has got him for a bargain for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jype 6,398 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Fair play to Newcastle for being able to get a player of Debuchy's calibre and I'm sure he will be great there. Disappointed we're not really even looking to buying him and instead are getting Maicon in his twilight years on much higher wages. Who knows, maybe he would opt to join his French buddies at Newcastle either way but wouldn't hurt to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sil826 5 Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 I really really like Debuchy, but I don't think he should come to Chelsea (I'd like it if he stayed at France, but it seems his move to Newcastle is done) I'd prefer if we signed Maicon.

DavidEU 2,023 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 L'equipe seem to think Debuchy may stay for another season now. http://www.lequipe.fr/Allos-v2/Allo_TRANSFERT.htmlAt 10:22, translates roughly too:Despite his desire to departure, Mathieu Debuchy (26 years) could well be forced to stay one year in Lille. According to our information, the LOSC, him seeking a replacement to the height from coach Rudi Garcia, would seek mainly to finalize the arrival of the young Trojan Defender Djibril Sidibe (19 years old). The term goal would be that the new take the place of the former after a season of "cohabitation and training". Even if Union leaders also appreciate Parisien Christophe Jallet, whose transfer seems impossible, they would prefer so now the solution internal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
