André Schürrle

Learn to know the difference between opinions and arguments and it will serve you well in life! Stats are there even if you dont like them to clarify what is black and white and leave no area for grey,but i will leave you so you can bog it up your friends ass lol

Lol, whatever that means!

You and your stats. How about not looking at numbers and look at the games themselves? No? Too difficult? A blind person would know who the better player is. One player has 30 appearances for one of the best international sides in the world with 11 goals and the other is Victor Moses for fuck sake. Schurrle scores against quality teams like Austria, Belgium, Sweden and Ireland ( ) in important World Cup qualifiers while Moses scores against Ethiopia...

Look at the stats then. Moses, an established PL player, scored 1 goals in the league in 23 appearances against Swansea. Goals against Leeds, Middlesbrough, Wolves, Southampton, Rubin Kazan, Basel and Shaktar in cup competitions. Besides from Shaktar, the teams he's scored against aren't exactly great. They're mainly Championship and Europa League level.

Schurrle on the other hand is only half-way through his first season and has already tripled Moses' contribution in the league. Sounds exaggerated I know, but those are the stats! His goals came away to Stoke and at home to Manchester City, a title rival. That goal against City could mean a lot more than a number on a page. If we end up winning the league, it could be argued that Schurrle's contribution is already tenfold to that of Moses. He's also only been used in one cup game so far against PL opposition compared to 14 games of Moses (including EL) where he was mainly effective.

He's performed well in the Champions League games and looked an absolute menace against Munich - people tend to forget that as well. That is mainly due to the pace being similar to the Bundesliga and as soon as he is fully adapted here I would expect to see similar performances in the league. He has still done well in the league though and I do not think it is a coincidence that his dip in form has come at a time where he is used to having a winter break.

My main point is that we want players who can do well against quality opposition when called upon, not just against Championship/Europa league level teams...and so, indicating that Moses is as good as/better than Schurrle based on those stats is like saying Torres had a fantastic goalscoring season last year!

Let's wait until Schurrle's second season to begin to truly judge him, but so far I think it is clear that he's the better option when compared alongside Moses. Though, I'm not really sure if you remember what Moses was like. I think you're in for a shock if he ever comes back!

Just to remind you as well, the only reason we signed Moses was because we couldn't get Schurrle. I think the club had Schurrle as the preferred choice for a reason. I'll leave you with that and your dissected stats. Now jog bog on

I think we need to start thinking about CHelsea as one of the best clubs in the world.

You don't see any player in Real Madrid that is a regular 2nd choice saying that he wants to leave. FOr example Di Maria is right now a second choice, he knew it in the begining of the season and he still stayed after being in the starting eleven for 3 years.

Higuain was for one year or two years in the starting eleven of Madrid, on the other seasons he had to fight against everyone (Van Nistelroy, Raul, Benzema, etc).

That's how things work in great teams. We have 5 great AM, 3 great CB, 2 great RB, and we should have at least 2 great/very good players for every position if we want to fight for everything including the CHampions League.

The players that don't want to fight for their spot are not good enough to play for a giant like we are. They go and we buy another great player to replace them.

We can't have just 4 AM with international quality, because if one of them is injured we are in great problems playing 2 games every weak.

There are enough games for everyone if they work properly.

U need help ... What about give Moses a second season to judge then,if you could get your dick out of your german ass (male probly reading your comments)and read the topic and comments you would read my positives about Scurrle and want him to be a huge success but unless you take off your german gimp outfit and see he has been average to date and hasnt evolved the team blah blah,but as in your life you probly look on the negatives,ffs gimp boy

Lol, are you crying over your stats?

Don't cry about it lad!

Based on his last fee performances I wasn't surprised he wasn't even on he bench. He started so well has tapered off since

I'd keep him as our third choice striker for next season.

Lukaku,some world class striker and Andre would be quite a lethal strike force.There are not many third choice strikers easily available and of our quality so it'll make sense to play Andre.

Also since the role is quite minimal there is not much to expect unless there are injury issues.

Completely agree. Posts hidden.

Judging by his recent performances he might eventually end up becoming our new Kalou, which is terrible for someone of his potential. Hope he proves me wrong but if his recent performances are anything to go by he will never be more than a sub player. I think he is actually really similar to Kevin in a sense that they were both big fishes in small ponds. Even playing regularly for Bayer, he wasn't having any major outstanding seasons but rather decent ones.

Yeah but I think that was down to Kevin pissing Jose off in training, which basically signals his own death really, Jose don't really make amend with anyone, once they are bad they will forever be bad in his eyes. Remember Kevin started like 3-4 of our 1st few games because he impressed Jose in training and pre season. So good thing maybe is that Schurrle has a better attitude than Kevin but talent wise I am not sure.

kevin has gotten a lot of chances and he was terrible in every game. beside this seems to lack the mentality as Mou said. Schürrle seems to fight and try to gain his place while KDB is just crying that is not getting used. his performance in the Cup against Sunderland was disgusting. he didnt even try to show something or to impress the coach. clearly already out of London in his mind.
