zolayes 14,489 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Where would Reus play?Where would Hazard play? Where would Oscar play?Where would willian/schurrle play?What about ramires, cesc and matic. Would Chelsea move to a 4-3-3 than? reus wouldnt make sense, unless either hazard or oscar were leaving.well said :blue scalf: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a beast at pressing, which is all you can say for Scurlle as his defensive positions are crap. Check man city game. Reus is a good profile player for our teams identity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah right.For me it's like:- If Reus come - one of the Schurrle/Willian would be sold (I'm all for it)- If Pogba come - Oscar would be sold and Fabregas moved to AM position (I'm not so sure about it, depend on Oscar performences later and Pogba price and earnings) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParNolio7 285 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Oh brother as if we don't have enough worldclass midfielders as it is ... not to mention the twenty or so out on loan hoping fo one day get their shot at the bridge. Thorgan Hazard, that Danish bloke, Marko Van Ginkel and so on and so on ...We've done fantastic transfer business over the summer, stop nagging.

Oscar is the key to the press. Reus is a component of BVB pressing. Chelsea on the otherhand has ramires, willian, oscar, costa that effectively press on the opponents half. Without Oscar, Cesc and Matic cannot handle the midfield duties by themselves. So because we have Schurrle and Willian we should pass on world class player..

When james became available he bought him even though he had isco. when kroos became available he purchased him, even though he had illaramendi, modric and di maria/alonso...Reus needs to play in the middle/left and be featured to be effective. How can you feature costa, cesc, hazard and reus all at the same time? Hazard was the feature player last season and this season not so much. Thus far, he has one pk and a cutin goal. It's going to be really difficult to keep all of them happy. However, like i said before, chelsea is on the bottom of his list...Bayern, madrid and barca are all ahead right now for reus, so he is completely irrelevant and impossible to sign.

See I think you have agreed with me. Reus does not make pressing on his own, but he would fit in with our pressing game. Also, I don't see how oscar is compared? He is the glue to the team, essentially it's a 4-3-3 with him the forward pressing cm. Reus is an attacking mid or winger, whichever. Schurlle or willian would step aside. Though I do agree I'm not sure how likely this is to happen ( in fact more unlikely than not) but theoretically he would make us take another step Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First of all - I also think that getting Reus is almost impossible for us.Second of all - James replaced Di Maria, I think Di maria was level above him and i agree that was completely dumb moveThird of all - as I wrote signing Reus would have nothing to do with Oscar, we will still have Oscar and Costa and Matic pressing, with addition of Reus pressing who I think is better at that than SchurrleFourth of all - I think Reus would be better offensively on right wing than Schurrle and Willian, and he could change positions with Hazard if Hazard has his quiet moments in games (and he has them often) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joker10 946 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Not sure why some think Reus cant play on the right, if Bale can still be effective after switching side i don't see why Reus cant do the same. Reus is by far the more complete footballer.Willian, Schurrle, and Salah have not impressed anyone to think they can be regular in our starting XI, the right attacking midfield is one of those positions that clearly needs an upgrade. Cuadrado is another intresting option tbh.Gundogan is an amazing CM, he was so good during Dortmund run to the CL final. Truely on his to becoming the best CM in the world if he kept that form. Shame about his injury, hopefully he can recover and come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkim2 73 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Reus won the league MVP while playing for Borussia Mönchengladbach. Guess where he played? RW. In 37 games he played as RW for Mönchengladbach, he managed 21 goals 14 assists in 37 games.. Marco Reus - 7.74 (AMR / 22 / Borussia MGladbach)If any were unfamiliar with the name Marco Reus prior to 2011, they shouldn't be after the year the 22-year-old has had with Borussia MGladbach. An integral figure in keeping the side in the Bundesliga by the skin of their teeth last season - finishing the campaign as the team-leader for both goals (10) and assists (8) - Reus has gone from strength to strength this term and it may only be a matter of time before he is considered as a potential starter in the national side.The young winger is all but equally adept when starting up front and has switched between a right midfield role and a position as striker this season to devastating effect. He has already matched his goal tally of 10 from last season in just 15 games and is unlucky to have picked up a solitary assist for his troubles.Since the start of the year, Reus has scored 12 goals and picked up 3 assists. He has registered 3.16 shots per game and an impressive 2.52 key passes per game, giving him a total of 63 chances created for teammates this season, who are somewhat to blame for his meagre assist tally for the year. As a tricky wide man he has attempted 5.52 dribbles per game but not shirked his defensive responsibility to make and exceptional 2.24 tackles and 1.76 interceptions per match.

dkim2 73 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Don't know what makes people think Reus can't play at RW.Here are more pieces.2011-12 Bundesliga team of the seasonGerman Bundesliga Team of the SeasonFor the second year running, the German Bundesliga season has come to a close with Borussia Dortmund crowned champions.RM: Marco Reus (Borussia Monchengladbach) - 7 Team Of The Week AppearancesWhile Reus didn't exactly play as a winger always, the movement involved in Gladbach coach Lucien Favre's style of play means there's no real way to pinpoint where each player, apart from the backline, is playing.Reus did spend most of his time playing as a 'forward', but he posed the biggest threat whenever he drifted out to the right flanks, where he would then proceed to beat his direct opponent before laying on a pass and going for goal himself.The 2011/12 campaign saw the Germany international bypass the 20-goal mark for the first time in his career, earning him a summer move to Dortmund in the process, where he's likely to only get better.

Myself 793 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Gundogan better than Reus? Not even close. Reus is second best player in bundesliga after Robben.What? How do you even make that assessment? This is the exact reason I think that the Ballon d'Or isn't that important.. how did you come to the conclusion that Reus is better than Neuer, Hummels, Lahm, Subotic, Martinez, Benatia, Lewandowski, Boateng, Weiderfeller etc?

Supermonkey92 1,428 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 No ground to stand on in saying he wouldn't do well here, heck he'd fit like a glove. Only questions are, is there space in the squad to aquire him? Do we even want him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChelseaFC12 134 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Reus is as good as Bale and I'm not joking. I would take him in a hearbeat he's in another league to Schurrle and Willian. He's same profile of player such as Bale, Hazard, Gotze, Neymar. I'd happily offload any of Schurrle, Willian for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
