Wishlist Julian Draxler

[Waterfall 893]

Oscar and Andre aren't exactly midgets. Both are 6ft tall I think. And I don't think height is really that imperative in the attacking midfield.

I was just joking hehe

Why do this? We don't need him. Leverkusen are interested in KDB too. Let's do a swap for Lars Bender. Does that not make a lot more sense??

I see.

I think he could be a boss CM/ Box to box player here, maybe that's what Mourinho and the board have in mind.

[Chelsea Legend 11 4,062]

The question is, though, what does Draxler offer us that Hazard, Willian, Schurrle, Oscar and Mata can't so we would spend "tens of millions" on him?

I think he is a better player than DeBruyne with a higher ceiling, he offers more should we need to offload someone to make money.

yea.. just like KDB and Oscar can, in theory ofc.

I agree that he is better than KDB, but I'm not sure he offers something much different and better than the other 5 AMs we have to justify us spending a lot of money on him.

Sorry I didn't explain that right. Should we need to sell Draxler will net more. IMO of course.

I think is kind of Hazard and Willian.IMO

Spot on. I think he's a bit of both, but probably a bit closer to Willian. But obviously not as developed as either. He's a huge prospect, but we already have quite a lot of those here.

[Toli 977]

he aint no B2B at all. his favorite position is the AMF behind the strikers. defensively he is way too weak to play as a B2B and also he hasnt got the lung to run that much. he is more of a creative player with a good technique and good finishing skills but not a B2B or CM at all. would be another dumb transfer, because we dont need no AMFs. only if we sell mata+ another one maybe.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

In case if we ever go for another AM for whatever reason, it should be Ross Barkley.

[Sidzeret 2,257]

Can he play in the pivot?

No? Then, No thanks.

[Hamilton 2,120]

Probably teams will go after Mata again, so who says Juan is gonna stay? Can see this happening IF KDB and Mata leaves..

[jasonlol 154]

if we sold mata and kdb; and used draxler and oscar rotating in #10 role I reckon draxler would beat out oscar.

[drog.ba 239]

Wouldn't mind seeing him replace Willian, he's bigger/more physical if we are moving away from trying to replicate Barcelona. Don't know how good he is on the right, at the minute we have Willian, Hazard, Schrulle and KDB who are all best on the left and Oscar, Mata, Hazard and Willian in the middle. We don't have anyone who's no1 position is the right wing, Draxler plays most on the left and long term will probably move to the no10 position

[haranr 485]

He has no place atm. The only way I see him joining is in a swap deal with Andre or KDB.

Draxler more physical than Willian? not at all. physically he is weaker than Willian.

If we do sell Mata I would love it if Draxler replaces him, dont want him to go to Arsenal

Replace Mata as the 5th choice AM?

[BlueLyon 9,359]

I would rather get Candreva for that purpose...

[Mouri_Matic 560]

Arsenal bid 37m for him soon after getting rejected by Benfica on Matic, offered to pay 35m but in 3 go according to Benfica fans. Shit they have REALLY CHANGED, can see them being 1 of our biggest rival for the next few years now.
