Isco

[Rubber bullets 1,183]

Is he just an attacking midfielder or can he play deeper?

In terms of passing football, Barca will be ahead of us for another 10 years at least. Last year we won CL with our game. If we go Chelsea tikitaka vs Barca tikitaka we will never win against them because they are better in that. We are (were) better at defending and taking chances. Play our game, not being defensive and park the bus at all, but for fuck sake, dont copy barca. We are fucking english team and should play like so! Not that classic strong harsh nasty football, but as english team, we could also be offensive and creative and play beautiful. This comparising to barca and that we are making barca tactics is pissing me of. We are CHELSEA. Not city to be overloaded with unhappy players etc...We lack some balls and experience. Get a powerful CM, keep rest team as it is, involve youth and we will have some great team in two years. Why the hell we need another CAM like Isco? Cuz Oscar isnt good enough? And sell Kdb? And have 10 pissed CAMs on bench? Yeah lets buy buy buy and sell what we already bought. And in two years, a new super talent will come and we should buy him too and sell Isco then and...brilliant logic. Some people just dont trust our players. I mean, Kdb is doing great so far, but you would sell him just to bring in Isco? Just because he is more fancy or what? I wont be surprised if Kdb becomes bigger player than Isco in the end...

...rage over...

sorry double post...

Can he play as a striker? 'cause I notice he is really good at shooting. If we can get him and push him to the foward positon, maybe we'll get a nice striker, definately better than torres.

[YouNameIt 1,511]

We aren't getting him.We have Mata,Oscar,Hazard,KDB,Marin and Moses available.I call bollocks.

Who says KDB and/or Marin are to count with?

Plus, isnt Isco a striker?

[Spike 12,049]

Great player. He has incredible ball control and dribbling. I wouldn't say no to signing him due to his amazing ability and even more amazing potential, but a player like Isco shouldn't be top priority.

I think this rumour is 100% false but IF it were true for me it would mean this:

1. Oscar will drop to a deeper role

2. If Pep comes in the summer Isco will play as the false 9

If Chelsea don't sign Isco we will regret it, especially if Arsenal/Real/Barca/United/or someone else sign him. We might not necessarily need him, in fact we do tbh - when we rest Mata we are shite. Isco could be a like for like replacement when we rest Juan.

[cadenza666 221]

for some reason signing Isco has Guardiola written all over it lol

You hit the nail on the head...when Mata sits, we are shite. Isco is amazing having watched him play every match, he is every bit as good as Mata or close to it.

Again, if Isco comes to Chels for such a small role, he will be as criticized as Oscar. He will need a good time to adapt (language, style, city, food, etc) and has the same problem of being unconfortable in tight and physical situations (although he is a better dribler and close range shooter).

If Isco comes, I want Marin out. We must not buy great players just to prevent them from going elsewhere...

Don't know much about this guy but I do agree that it is quite worrying how different as an attacking force we are without Mata. Somebody needs to step up.
