OneMoSalah 8,889 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Seen a few rumors so I checked it out and fund 3 websites with the story, non too reliable but its worth a look at.http://www.sport360....lombian-strikerhttp://sportwitness....source=activityhttp://www.chelseama...ombian-striker/Hes in good form so far this season, has scored 11 goals in 12 games, a record better than Falcao's start at Porto. He only just moved to Porto in the summer though and has got a buyout clause of at least 40 million euros. Barcelona are apparently monitoring him too.

Jase 43,479 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Dealing with Porto again? No thanks! They will just try to rip us off again, like they always do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DYC. 7,542 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Doubt Barcelona would want him, not their type of striker. From what I've seen, I'd say he's more a Lisandro Lopez case than a Falcao. But since the club's watching Porto, I hope the scouts are also keeping an eye on Moutinho (I'd add James but we're already completely covered in that position) and recognize what he could be bring our team.

As long as they keep 'producing the goods', we'll always want to buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 He is possible next Falcao. His goals are great, has ball control and good finishing. And what the f are you keep moaning about Porto ripping us? Carvalho, Ferreira, Mou are one of best people that worked for CFC. I dont care if we pay triple the price, if players do well, I dont see problem. If there was club that ripped us it is Lpool and their 50mio Torres. Or Sheva for 35 from Milan. I personaly would love to see Alex Sandro, Martinez, James or Moutinho here if we needed them. Yes we would overpay them, but this is Porto, you pay lot, you (usually) get lot. Hulk would be great player, but Russia realy dont fit him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are similar quality players elswhere, if not better that will costs us for less than what Porto would demand. And as for Hulk, he's nowhere worth the 40m that Porto reportedly wanted. At best, he's probably only worth around 30m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway I agree there might be other players available, as much I dont see Lewandowski as truly world class striker, I have feeling he could become Chelsea legend and world class striker.And I also just read that Porto wants 40!!!mio pounds for Martinez...no thanks. He could be great, but if we spend 40+ mio on striker it should be only Falcao or Cavani. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Late bloomer I guess, but you have to admit that Porto always finds such kind of players, they pay cheap and sell for big, amazing scouting.Porto, Borussia, Atletico, Shakhtar, Napoli - talent treasuries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wouldn't be good for Chelsea if he can't rip up the Russian league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 For the price of 40mio I wouldnt take him. For 20-25max. He is great player, but not that great as Falcao. Remember that Falcao was sold to Atletico for 35mio pounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrategiC 73 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 this guy has some much potential he's already breaking records in porto. I'd sign him for 35-38€, if more i'd take FALCAO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
