André Schürrle

[The Chels 2,502]

German right-sided attacker wants to fight for place but Chelsea have highlighted his position as needing strengthening, with Marco Reus and Juan Cuadrado on radar.

André Schürrle is prepared to fight for his Chelsea future – even though the club will make signing a new right-sided forward one of their top priorities of the summer transfer window.

The season still has got a long way to go. Yes, Schurrle has been poor but people are like Jekyll and Hyde on here. They are all up on Schurrle's arse when he was scoring for the club and NT and now that he has got off to a slow start since being back people want to write him off. In the long run, Schurrle might just be an added bonus for us and I reckon we will appreciate having him in the squad. Please don't compare Marin and Moses to Schurrle. Schurrle is much better than both but is just low on confidence right now and is not playing well. Nasri had a similar situation with City but with time improved and played well. No reason why Schurrle cannot do the same.

If people really think we can just sell Schurrle and think Salah can easily fill in, then they don't have a clue. Just because he has done 'nothing' this season which is not true anyway, there is no reason to think he cannot gain form later on in the season.

if you read my other posts, i have reiterated that we should buy reus/lavezzi/cuadrado to replace him. the moses/marin comparision was to show how poor he has been. also, i really dont think he is that better than moses. moses is erratic, and poor in the final (almost as if his brain get short circuited in the final third), but he has shown that his gameis actually quite good. schurrle on the other hand is a goal scorer (normally) but seems to be pretty average on his overall game. even defensively he has shown to be a massive liability.

we are fighting for the title, you think schurrle will get a "time" to improve. hell he cant even get 60 minutes, he has been so poor that he has to be subbed off at HT.

buying lavezzi/cuadrado and especially reus will only better the team and squad. and selling schurrle for 30mil is hardly a poor decision especially since how poor he has been.

right now, even the idea of going towards the end of the season with title on the line and on the other hand CL semis/quarete finals in mid week and having schurrle as the main back sends a chill through my spine.

If the offer is serious then it'd be best to sell him. We can use Salah and Remy for the wings IF anything happens to Willian and Hazard. Its quite clear that Jose really doesn't rate Schurrle anymore. If nothing happen this month then I am sure he'll get sold in the summer.

Even a squad player does get game time to get their rhythm, form and confidence. The downside of us having a really settled starting XI is that situation isn't happening. You can't expect players to come in and perform like turning on/off a tap water, especially when these players are hardly at their peak (the situation at City is probably an ideal comparison perhaps). Moreover, looking at the number of minutes Schurrle (or anyone else for that matter) has had is misleading. Only a few of them were starts while others have been in the final parts of matches.

any player would get time to regain his confidence and rhythm if and only if he is good enough. a player who is getting subbed at HTs wont. lets be fair, jose is the best manager in the world. you think he does know that playing the same eleven match after match and midweek after weekend after midweek is going to cause problems later on. for me, this just shows how little faith he has in players like schurrle and that he thinks that schurrle wont be the best for the team.

also, my argument. when i showed the amount of time he has had on the pitch, was that his contribution has been so less than it can easily be replaced.

Not even on the bench today. Sign that he's off???

Wasn't on the bench against Spurs either and was hauled off at half time against Watford.

[Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067]

I i was him, i'd probably leave.

He can save face (as a WC winner) be back in his home country, and play in his favorite LW position.

But i guess this will wait till the summer. Dont know who would replace him, (besides Reus) and still be available for all competitions.

Id still do the deal, and sign Reus, because the EPL should be our main focus.

if he struggles to make bench/last more than 45, and teams will pay £20m+ for him. no reason whatsoever to keep. get a good price while you can

Maybe. Maybe not.

Not the first time he has been completely left out of the matchday squad anyway.

Four times already Schurrle has been sub at halftime. Now not even on team list. I know the Andre fanboys don't like to hear it, but bottom line is: Schurrle became "ill" exactly at the same time Diego Costa arrived at the club. Coincidence? I think not.

And what's with this "mystery illness" that shall not be named? People should not be ashamed to become ill, it'll happen sooner or later. Unless the embarrassment is because is some type of STD. I don't understand what this hush-hush is all about and why the club is keeping it oh-so secretive.

Still think Schurrle will be gone sometime soon, if not not this month then definitely in the Summer.
