Popular Post! Amblève. 4,995 Posted January 5, 2013 Popular Post! Share Posted January 5, 2013 Am I the only one here wondering if we will ever fix our biggest problem we've been having for 2 years now? FFS get a proper CM/DM in, that's what we really need.

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Don't understand the people who think we don't need him. Whenever we rest either Hazard or Mata our team is simply not good enough in attack. We want to be a TOP club don't we? Well a TOP club has many TOP players fighting for EACH position. Who's threatening Hazard and Mata? Oscar and Piazon? lol no. Oscar has potential and is a good player. Piazon isn't even an AM, neither is Moses, Marin etc. We're one of the richest clubs in the world and the current European Champions. Why settle for anything other than the very best?So you think we should have great chemistry among players with Hazard and Mata starters and Isco, Oscar on bench? They are way too good to be on bench and that will ruin whole team understanding. We dont need Mata type players on bench. Does Barca have Xavis and Iniestas on bench? They have Thiago, Song,...And you say Oscar cant replace Mata? Sure he cant, cuz Mata is our motor and heart playmaker. You dont have two such players in team. We aint barca btw either...First things first, we need CM (who could easily play in more attacking role if Mata needed rest). Then there are Kdb, Moses, Oscar, Marin all fighting for one place along Mata, Hazard. But you would still buy buy buy right? You Would never play Kdb etc then would you? We have players and board will give them chance, thank god the Isco rumours are unreliable.Also we are in TRANSITION. Patience and we will have hell of a good squad soon. But at the moment we are not Top club. If we were, we would be in CL and we would be world club champions. We are building on new team and if you dont trust me that toi many players is not working, then check City and united. City full with longest world class bench out of CL, while United with one of shittest midfields and defences they still do their work on top level (they win matches). Its not bout Quantity but Quality! Mind that will ya? Blue Armour, SinineUltra, Stingray and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mak 4,459 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 'Sunday People Sport'? Really?I'm not sure why people are even debating this with a 'source' like that. It doesn't even make the slightest bit of sense when there are more vital areas in need of improvement, particularly DM(s). People who honestly believe we need another AM right now need to get their priorities straight. Heisenberg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waterfall 893 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Shit source but if we do get him... I never say no to talent like him... I think the club's plan is to move Oscar to Lamps current position anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themightyblue 443 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Signing Isco would mean that we are serious about Oscar moving into a deeper position and that Marin may be off on loan. Would imagine that if Lamps does go and Isco comes, next season we could be looking at something likeCMs: Mikel, Ramires, Oscar, Romeu, New CMAMs: Mata, Hazard, Isco, Moses, De BruyneWait and see how this one develops The only place to be 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see the point in re-signing Lampard if we're getting Isco which makes me doubt the whole story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Also we are short on real wingers. Only Moses is realy winger and party Marin. Someone like Bale/Alexis Sanchez/Dzsudzsak/Wallcot would fit us better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouNameIt 1,511 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 First of all this player is fantastic player. However he is NOT what we need. He is CAM. And we have Oscar, Mata, Hazard, Kdb and Marin who all play there. And 4 of them could easily be starters and should be. We dont need Isco to be backup, competition or whatever. Oscar is already there, as well Marin and Kdb on the way. Too many players is not always best thing. The second thing is that we need CM to play in pivot. Even a CM puts some doubts that Oscar will ever be our starter if some good CM actualy comes. With Moses, Mata and Hazard I dont see starting spot for Oscar. That means, Isco is totaly unneccesary, he is great talent but we will never have them all and we shouldnt. Go after Benat, Camacho, Essien, Kdb, Capoue, Bender , Gundogan, Sissoko or Hernanes instead...Since when is Marin a CAM? ANd we dont play oscar mata and hazard at the same position.We look like utter crap when Mata/Hazard arent on. We can rely on a single player. Im not saying we dont need a DM but we also need a crowded midfield. We need more players like Mata etc so we can rotate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDB look like he will play in the pivot for us, maybe oscar will be moved deeper. We have mceachran as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waterfall 893 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 We are probably looking at 3-6-1 formation with six 10's Sheva. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorontoChelsea 4,064 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I went to England with my friend about 15 years ago. I had been before but he never had. He kept talking about his expectations of English sophistication. We got to our hostel and there was a Sunday Sport lying around. The headline "(some D-list cleb:) loves oral: she likes it up the bum too". The second page was a picture of some guy's severed head. That settled him down some. My guess is that Sunday Sport probably does not have any inside scoops on anything so I'd take this transfer rumour with rather large grain of salt.

Z-25 12 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Can't Isco play out wide?In the Malaga x Real Madrid game before the christmas break, he played on both flanks and through the middle.Madrid defenders really struggled to cope with him.

Blue Gino 377 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Jose Mourinho always said you need two top class players for each position. Personally I never wanted Oscar but I admire Isco and would love to have him. Isco is versatile enough to play anywhere and I see this potential signing as "hey Pep, I just built you mini Barcelona here in London" so I'm not surprised by this. Plus I don't think Moses has a great final pass, it's hot and cold so he should come off the bench and Chelsea should favor Iscao, Mata and Hazard as the regular 3 and work Oscar into the pivot. They still need a strong tackler in defensive midfield and to me Rafa has frozen out Mikel so I'm assuming they will go after Fellaini or M'Villa, etc to fill that void and then call it done for January. If this happens I expect KDB or DeBruyne to throw a fit and ask to be sold. I don't care if Isco is small, and this is a physical league because I know Roman doesn't care either he wants the ballyhooed "beautiful foootball" to triumph one day over parking the bus for a CL trophy which I'll never understand to this day but it ain't my money bro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,944 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Like most of you are saying, I agree that it's likely made up bullshit, but I think he'd be much more valuable than some think.Not to mention it would piss the hell out of Arsenal, United, City, and Liverpool who are all after him.

Blue Gino 377 Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 If Chelsea did get Isco's sig it's probably a pre contract because he's got the CL to compete in right now. It may just be silly season crap because that Markovic kid was supposed to be a done deal by now just like 2011 and nothing ever happened. But I sure love me some Isco though.

BenIsLegend 475 Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 He's a great talent, would love him here. It would mean either Oscar to deep lying playmaker or the end for Marin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
