André Schürrle

[Sheva. 5,373]

He's a real difference maker, doesn't matter against who, he will get in good positions and always a threat.

Like having another striker on the pitch, who's comfortable on the wings. Anelka replacement.

[The Skipper 20,593]

I wasn't kidding when I said that Schurrle and Fabregas are going to be a problem this season...

[Jase 43,479]

Took his goal well and that really showed why he should be play more often. Offers so much more attacking threat and gives others more passing options as well.

And this post summed up Schurrle at the moment. Can just sense this is like a new Schurrle, one who is shining brightly and at the top of his confidence level.

There's a new sense of confidence you can see in the lad. His runs are devastating when a ball is actually played to him. Took his goal very well.

[Chelsea? 892]

Good to have another goal scorer in the line up. Everyone else in our 4231 is a pass first type of guy except Costa

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Schurrle is a beast. Get in, my man.

[rohitmohanihm 39]

i really wanted him to start today.. and i think he is perfect for us.. I think I can see him turn into our own version of Bale .... he was a constatnt threat with his pace and direct running and took his goal sweetly .. hope he can cement down that right berth

The thing I love about Schurrle is that he's a loyal, club success before personal success player. I'll never forget last year at the Bridge vs City, he was subbed very early after scoring and instead of having a sook, he sat on the bench and cheered the boys on. At full time he ran on the pitch and congratulated the team with massive enthusiasm.

He could have easily been a wanker like Mata and throw a public hissy fit and walk into the sheds, but he didn't.

He will go very far under José

What a stunning team goal finished by him today. The entire buildup to the goal was executed perfectly, from Hazard's dribble, Ivanovic's cross, Fabregas' half volley through ball, to Schurrle's run and finish. Surely a contender for goal of the season already.

[Joelasticot 111]

If you look closely at Andre's run for the goal, he starts very early and he just knows when to attack the space in front of him.

I think that kind of play was rehearsed in training. If so, I mean if Andre is part of specific rehearsed complex plays, it means two things in my opinion :

1 - Mou is really working hard on our attacking sequences.

2 - Andre will be a starter in most games this season.

Then again, I'm pumped and I could be wrong but it sure looks this way to me.

Your opinion probably true based on what mou said during PC. He said that Chelsea is ready facing bus parking team this season. Fabregas is the brain and Schurrle is the man for finishing the job. As for Costa, i think he get a free role in the front line. To pull defenders, create havoc on penalty area and let his teammates like Schurrle exploit that space.

Will be a beast of a player for us from now on if he doesn't jerk off aka attending Arsenal Xmas party, he is better than Willian technically and once he tracks back more he will have a permanent place in the team ahead of Willian or Oscar.

He's not better technically. But he is better at making runs, exploiting space, and pulling the trigger when he is in front of goal.

More productive in front of goal is the appropriate phrase sorry.

[Toli 977]

A thing he has to improve is, when getting the ball, to go more forward. most of the times he just stops and passes the ball backwards, reducing the tempo of our attack. off the ball he is unbelievable, but when he has the ball, there are still some thinkgs he can improve on. more 1 vs 1 and more vision instead of always passing the ball backwards. otherwise happy for his start and good game.

You mean... He can't... Not even once?

Chelsea transfer news: Andre Schurrle 'not going anywhere' amid Atletico Madrid interest

[Special Juan 27,429]

Might not be the best at getting at people but his runs and constant menace in the final third is class.

I think this lad will be a main stay in this team for a long time.

No, not when Montana Yorke is your girlfriend.
