Badboy 1,526 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 They've looked at our situation and figured out that if Hazard isn't dribbling with the ball then we're fucked because we don't have another ball carrier. You can't just pass the ball into the goal you need dribblers ! Oscar and Mata will offer little of that and Shurrle or whatever his name is 18 million down the drain !

Shakez 755 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Nice that he's already training, i see him as starting IX material. I understand that Mourinho added him because our squad is very young. Hazard/Oscar/De Bruyne/Schürrle are all under 23 and are not ready yet to carry Chelsea in all competitions for a entire year. With Mata and now Willian we have 2 attacking midfielders that are nearing they're peak. We know have the depth so that we don't need to burn our young players before they even reach they're peak. Although i guess he will play mostly at the right wing when Hazard is fit, he's an ideal replacement for him should he get injured because he is two-footed. In that scenario we can move Mata or De Bruyne to the right wing with Oscar at the center. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Skipper 20,609 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Yeah I know but if he were to have a chance he'd have to be playing every week at a high level. Bets he won't start every week here. He'll start more often than not. We didn't pay £30m for him to have him as a squad player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hjperdeath 2,226 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 He'll probably end up as a first choice on the wing, and probably Hazard on the other with Schurrle fighting for a spot. Oscar and Mata to fight it out for #10 and KDB,Ramires,MVG,Essien,Mikel and Lampard for the CM places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomo 21,751 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I didn't see the sense of it when the news came out but the more i think about this, the more it does make sense.For a start we have got enough creative players but lack a pure winger, now we have our squad winger in Moses (if he stays) but we could do with one who is capable of producing against top opponents, now while Moses is a good squad player who can fill in, could you see him producing in a Champions League semi final at the Allianz Arena? i can;t.Also another reason is look at our attacking midfielders, we have Juan Mata who is approaching his peak, but Schurrle, De Bruyne, Hazard and Oscar are very good players but at 22 they are not the finished article players if Mata got an injury we would be relying on 22 year old's to drive us forward in two of the biggest competition's in the world, add that to a 20 year old Lukaku being our only current half decent forward also. The lack of experience in the front line was telling at Old Trafford.This signing on reflection makes me even more confident we will challenge for the PL title this season, the reason why we might struggle before is that our squad is young, well that is not the case anymore if you compare the lineup to what is likely to start the big games this season to the one that did in Mourinho's first stint, the team is a lot older and a lot more experienced.Cech (22), Paulo (26), Carvalho (26), Terry (24), Gallas (26), Makelele (31), Tiago (23), Lampard (26), Robben (20), Duff (26), Drogba (26).to now: Cech (31), Azpi(24)/Ivan(29), Luiz (26), Terry (32), Cole (32), Ramires (26), Mikel(26)/Lampard(35), Willian (25), Mata (25), Hazard (21), Eto'o(32),Yilmaz(28), avalible for £11m apparently or Martinez(26).All off a sudden we look experienced and strong enough to challenge on all front's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When everyone was talking about how Messi's the best player in the world, Andy questioned how he hasn't faced physical football like that played by Stoke City, who literally play rugby football. So it actually means, no matter how good you are, can you do it in the English Premier League? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I've seen this joke so many times around.Can explain to me? Thanks Because The Brittania is the stereotypical small, compact English pitch with fans that will make the place intimidating and players that will get in your faces.Personally i think the fear factor of that team are long gone, they stagnated last season and Sparky won't be as full on with his tactics as Pulis was.
