Wishlist Wilfried Bony

[Sheva. 5,373]

this is only a shit league

True but for 8m, we could do much worse. Man utd got Hernandez from the Mexican league but he has proven to be a great buy for them, just have to hope we're as fortunate if this does happen.

agree good comparison. Think Bony -if a success - could be even better for us than hernandez for manU as he is a player who can lead the line (and is generally the better player)

BONY

I realy support this signing if he came for this price. BUT generaly Chelsea is a club that somehow never gives chances to either young or cheap players. If you come with huge price tag, we will treat you as king and all, if you come cheap, you will play less, be second option, etc.

Therefore i think if we buy him, he is NOT going to play ahead of Torres (even he has great potential, chelsea board will never try him to play enough) and therefore he will never be world class player that he might become here if he would be treated better and given more play time. I hope Im wrong, but thats how its been so far...

And even before he is here, why are you people already saying he is only second option? Because he is cheap or what? Suarez came from this league too...

"There is interest in the player from the Premier League, Chelsea, Aston Villa included," Kacou told Sky Sports.

Bony said of the chance to join Roberto Di Matteo's side: "My agent is dealing with all enquiries but being linked with Chelsea is a dream come true, they are a very big club, and my hero [Didier] Drogba was there!"

This might be a goer then

I would love to have him in Chelsea... I loved him, when he was in Sparta Praha, he is 23 years old... Him, Danny and Lukaku, all on the same start position, all young...

Backwards step IMHO

We need a World Class player not another gamble...

Buy good, buy once

Buy cheap, buy twice..

Same rule applies here - just ask Newcastle?

How would he be a backwards step? I won't admit to have watched a lot of his game, but what we need is someone that can score goals and link up play as the striker. His goal record is impressive this season and i'm sure Chelsea know what there doing. Its not always about buying world class players. I'd prefer to buy a player that has talent and can actually fit in our system, rather than a 'world class' player who we'd be paying large sums of money for and is just as big a gamble. Don't let a price tag fool you

He's a solid player, anything below 10-12 million would be a bargain, not a gamble.

Also, what do you mean by "another" gamble..because Lukaku was a long term signing, no one expected him to move from Belgium and immediately make it into Chelsea first team.

I'm not remember we signed Kezman - excellent record didn't produce...

Whatever way you look at he's a gamble a big gamble - admittedly he cannot be worse than Torres, but still a big gamble.

I would prefer Falcao or Cavvani - big game players, proven at highest level...

But hey - if he comes to CFC I will support him, like I do for all of our players.,.

See my other post above, Kezman, Kalou etc ...

For once I want us to have a clinical, deadly striker like Man U have with RvP.

Not someone who has potential, will get better etc - I want a 25 goal a season monster

Just my opinion though...

Hard to imagine a player who played in the Czech Republic to be playing in England, let alone Chelsea lol. Still weird to see Edin Dzeko, who used to play for Usti nad Labem, which is a town just a few miles from the town I was born in, wearing a Man City shirt.

[OneMoSalah 8,883]

Just because he plays in Holland and Kezman had a good record in Holland then moved here and turned out to be bullshit, doesn't mean Bony will be the same! What I've heard about him is all positive, big strong, pacey, great finisher. Only a matter of time before he comes here I think. His agent stated we were following him and with our link with Vitesse I think we'll get him.

Also whats with the hate on Kalou, scored vital goals from the bench, was a decent player overall. The fact we used him as winger when he was a CF didn't help either.

Van Persie, Van Nistelrooy (one of my fav strikers ever) and Suarez all came from this 'shit' Eredivisie. They were shit in england too, right?

WTF is wrong with some people. If this Bony came for 20 mio, everyone would say he will be the best, but just because he is worth about 10mio and not known, you all know that he will be bad here. Cmon, it could turn to be better than Falcao or whoever.

Most its about the quality of player, not league. The most quality strikers will handle any leage, more or less.
