Bir_CFC 3,455 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 I'm all for adding quality but spending 30M to improve a position that is already best in the league makes no sense. I'll be fucking pissed if KDB don't get a shitload of minutes this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toli 977 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 So what, people are supposed to be happy with a signing that doesn't make sense in their opinion? Why should we be happy about spanking out £30m on a player we don't need?because its mou you know. if he signs someone, it has to be right. otherwise you are the idiot. delusional acting from our board, just plain delusional.most people probably think he is a goal-scoring type of player because he scored 2 or 3 goals against us.

Amblève. 4,995 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Can you blame him though? I'd rather join Spurs than Liverpool, and Chelsea than Spurs. If Barcelona said they want him today, he will join them - he has no connections to any team, i bet he just wants to join a good team, get good money and win trophies.It's not about team A < team B and team B < team C. It's the fact that he had almost signed with 2 teams already and now he all of a sudden rather wants to join the third team that's bidding. He doesn't seem to have a single clue about his career path and I don't wanna see my team spending a huge sum on such a dude when we need to improve other areas in our team.

Why should we be happy about spanking out £30m on a player we don't need?But rather than complain and write it off completely, surely people should wait and see what Jose has planned. For all we know he may have decided that KDB/Oscar should be played deeper, or a big bid has come in for Mata etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stats 7,142 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Well said. It´s sci-fi here most of the times. Chelsea signs a good player, folks snivel here. Chelsea do not sign anybody for 4 weeks, folks questioned the club. Somehow, the Belgium troops in here are the biggest complainers.There is a difference. I reckon Willian is a good player and will add some quality but look into the bigger picture. People are not complaining for any reason. Some members already feel we have good enough options in the attacking midfield positions and many who questioned us not signing anyone primarily wanted another striker, or a CM.

Bir_CFC 3,455 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Hazard, Mata, Oscar, KDB, Willian, SchurrleYou realize one of those won't even make the matchday squad every match. Fucking stupid. I just assumed this was rumours for Anzi to get more money from Spurs but if we're actually signing him then this is fucking stupid. Not only does this put unncessary pressure on the dressing room but on Mou as well. He's an amazing manager but how are you going to keep 6 players happy for 3 positions?

Sheva. 5,373 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Moses provides directness on the right and he does so very well. We've already got out-and-out strikers, most people understand that we need a striker that can play in between the lines, it's not the case of people wanting out-and-out strikers on here, I certainly don't.Yeah, you don't turn into a great team in one transfer window but you can't really use that to justify this signing. You're completely ignoring that we've been building this team over the last 2/3 seasons and it only needs probably 2/3 correct signings to make it the complete squad but we're adding and excessively spending in an area that is the strongest in the team so it doesn't make sense whatsoever. It isn't like we have just started rebuilding the team this transfer window.But Moses is not on Willian's level. Not to mention he's pretty inconsistent, can look the real deal today, then tomorrow the complete opposite.Also, we have no strikers. When i say out-and-out striker, i mean a pure goalscorer like Falcao, Gomez or Higuain not Torres or Ba lol. And like i said before, this is the type of signing Bayern and Madrid make, and they have 2 of the best squads in football. Other areas will be fixed in due time, no hurry, or need to panic.

The Skipper 20,609 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 But rather than complain and write it off completely, surely people should wait and see what Jose has planned. For all we know he may have decided that KDB/Oscar should be played deeper, or a big bid has come in for Mata etc.That's the thing though, whatever the scenario is I feel the signing is very unneeded especially when it may be that Jose has decided to sell Mata. I will wait and see what happens over the next few days but any scenario I've tried to play out in my head doesn't look that promising.

Vybz Kartel 1,613 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 People who say Willian is not needed, its about Quality not Quantity it doesn't matter how many number 10's or wingers we have as long as the new signing/s add more quality to the squad that is a big positive. Willian is a massive upgrade on Moses so i am very happy with this potential deal!Except Moses is 23 million cheaper and wont be much of a problem with playing time also im sure he gets less wages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellzfresh 7,229 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 A lot of you are underestimating Willian and by appealing to your emotions fail to see the bigger picture here. Hes an amazing player and im sure Jose can make it work,else why would he bother signing hip up in the first place? + Mata aint going nowhere, so stop worrying about that!Judging by the last 2 games Mou has put chelsea to play style based on keeping the ball and slowly building up attacks from the middle. Having players like hazard and willian on the sides who are pacey, good dribblers,can take on opponents 1on1 and distribute some nice clever one-two passes is essential to this sort of tactic.Hazard and Willian will absolutely tear up the league this year, I promise u that! What a way to have your first post. Brilliant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
