Pacquiao 1,834 Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 If I can choose another attacking mid, I would get Gotze before isco. He is also a potential ballon D'or winner and is abit more versatile than isco.Gotze is class also but i see more potential in Isco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucio 5,418 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 would be a terrible waste of £25m. spend that on a proper cm or two. we could probably get something like paulinho and capoue together for the same price as isco mediator and Mufassir08 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonPride1905 236 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Would be immense at the winger spot , he was against Borussia. Him, Hazard and Mata with Oscar and Moses to company , man that is too nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beepu 1,714 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 One of the most exciting players that ive seen recently apart from Gotze and Hazard. Wouldnt say no for him to come. Can rotate with Mata. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can rotate with Mata.Don't see the logic in this when we can perfectly rotate Hazard or Oscar for Mata if we get a winger in.Isco needs to be starting weekly. He won't come here just to rotate with Mata. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won't come here just to rotate with Mata.Thats true, i think hes more versatile than oscar though, meaning he would probably do a good job on the wings. Although i dont know how he is with tracking back. Thats kinda what i meant, give him the role oscar has now and when we rest mata, move him to the middle. This is all if oscar gets moved to the middle. But I really dont know so much about Isco so i might be wrong about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll never accept being a squad player basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magic weeds 446 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Maybe 4-2-3-1 (Offcourse the 3 - Hazard, Isco and Mata, switching positions) - Jovetic- Hazard - - - Isco - - - Mata Oscar - - - KhediraOR 4-3-3 - Jovetic - Hazard - - - - -- - - - - - - -Mata - Isco - - - Oscar - Khedira - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 It would just be a luxury buy if we get Isco. Already have a few players with similar qualities as him. How many of these kind of players and young ones are we really gonna stock up here?! What we need is different kind of players to fix the key areas needed in the squad, not buying more players in positions we don't have much worry about.

He'll never accept being a squad player basically.Yeah you are absolutely right. Alot of people see that KDB can be a good winger, he has great crossing ability. But he is also probably prefer playing centrally, having 4 players who prefers a central role would probably be too much. I really do hope we keep him though.

LondonPride1905 236 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Actually watched a couple of Isco games and his winger mentality isn't that bad. People are judging him, because he is an AMC on Fifa and FM. In all truth in many times he dribbles up the wing and has the pace and ball control to easily overtake Moses, which makes him a great signing in my eyes. If we are to put De Bruyne in the CM role, than I want Isco, apart from that, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me the AM position is a definite problem/worry area. It's ridiculous for Mata, Hazard and Oscar having to play 50 or so games each in a season! We have to be able to rotate effectively in this position next season. Marin doesn't look like making the cut, Oscar prefers to play centrally and long-term future probably won't be out wide and Moses has been ok.

And it might be too much to have these many central minded players, i think its a luxury signing. But its ridiculous to say we dont want one of the best talent. If he can play on the right wing, and oscar can move to centre midfield even then we still have KDB who could actually rotate with any one of Hazard/Mata/Oscar/Isco. The argument here is should we get a proper winger instead??? Which i dont think someone like schurrle is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 The fact there's nothing been written about Isco to Chelsea for some time makes me think this one is dead.I thoroughly expect him to follow Manuel Pellegrini to City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better depth is crucial I don't necessarily disagree with that BUT would like to see us strengthen the key areas first before looking elsewhere. And if the players in those key positions that we get is versatile and can play in different positions, then I don't see why we need to go after someone like Isco.Also, people want us to buy all these young players but then later complain we don't youth a chance when they can perhaps solve our problem in some positions without having the need to go out and buy other talents.

KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 We don't even need him. Bring De Bryune back, put him on the wing and put Oscar in the middle alongside a good DM. Last thing we need is another AM. We should pass on Schurrle and get a proper winger (Not an AM converted into one) like Sanchez. He would be immense here.
