Mohamed Salah

[LAM09 6,809]

Well the club is clearly going to let him out on loan and once you are loaned you don't really get back into Chelsea squad unless you had a blinder of a season, even then it is most likely not enough as there are always other available who will likely be better than you on the market for a good fee(Courtois is the exception). The problem is that he clearly WON'T be given that chance you are talking about to prove himself, it applies to our club.

Let's hope that isn't the case. I am sure he will play quite a bit, as we are in several competitions. If he performs, he should be given the chance in bigger matches. We shall know what the case is come January.

Wasted of money as it stands, he will do well to be any where near Kalou I guess. Then there is the issue of we can easily go out for Reus next summer for 30m, ah well can always sell to someone like Sunderland for 5-6m and a small loss I guess.

i liked your comment alot .... especially the part talking about wasting money

Naaa we don't, he will likely want to leave and the clubs like Sunderland offering that amount we will accept.

Alright well let me explain to you the situation from two prespectives:

First there's the Chelsea point of view. A 22 year-old winger from Egypt, great pace and decent abilities. He is considered by many as a good squad player and useful when rotating the squad. Great option to bring in if someone is injured or suspended. Very reasonable and realistic point of view. And let's all agree that given Chelsea's current squad, he simply can't and won't be a regular.

But then there's the other point of view, and the reason Egyptians are starting to get nervous. The Egyptian NT is building a new, promising side after failing to even qualify to the last two African Cup of Nations, following the 3 titles acquired in a row. Now Salah is not only a main part of that new team, but the first name on the roaster. Being at a leading club without featuring at this point will be seen as a worse option than being a regular at a smaller club.

I personally think Salah will feature a lot for Chelsea this season given the length of it and the variety of competitions. And I'm glad he's staying at least till January because he has a chance to prove his worth when he does feature. But at the same time I'm nervous he might lose a lot of his form, as opposed to develop as a player which would be ideal for someone his age, which would affect the strength of our National team. So please mind the nervous Egyptians who want to see him feature, and understand that if he does decide to leave come January it will be for that reason. We logically want our star player to feature regularly for whatever team he's at.

i think its obvious that jose plans on using Ramires on the wings or move to 4-3-3 when needed.

Also, both costa and ramires can play on the wings. I can see Salah being sold in jan or next summer.

And therefore aka becoming a waste of money. I mean not a single decisive goal for us and little to no impact at all. Probably at a loss too, sometime I think we make these signings just to piss off the rivals.

Well, Salah could of went for Liverpool and won the league....potentially...

So, liverpool not winning the league was worth the money..

Yep he would have prevented the Gerrard slip and a couple on top of their 3-3 draw naaa in all seriousness huge waste of money imo, hope we learn from this. Only bad point so far on our great transfer policy, same policy that probably costs us Di Maria as we went for Willian when if we waited and bid 40m Madrid would have let Di Maria gone before Ozil last summer.

I don't see how that's obvious in the slightest. We're three games into the season, where the best left-back in Europe hasn't yet had a start because we're trying to get the train rolling form-wise first.

Salah will get opportunities. There's absolutely no reason to use either Costa or Ramires on the wings.

exactly what I was going to say ,, He will get chances .

I believe we would never see Costa play as a winger in Chelsea.

Ramires might act on the wings, maybe, during a match inorder to supplement the defense, but I don't think he'll start on the wings anymore. That is so last season.

And Costa on the wings??? Then what's the point in having him in the first place.

[Supermonkey92 1,428]

Salah is a very important squad member to have. Not going to moan about playing all the time, but still ambitious to what to play.

Strikes me as a player similar to schurlle, he's better and most dangerous with the ball than with, his movement is fantastic. Always vertical. Finishing needs to be improved but that is always the case with youngsters. First touch is actually quite good, I would say better than Schurlle and Oscar. Will play more than people expect I think.

Costa already played on the wings for atletico and played there when Drogba was introduced for the second game I believe. Ramires has played defensive style winger for chelsea and brazil numerous times, its not really far fetched to think a defensive minded manager like Jose would want to play ramires... Also, Remy can play on the wings as well.

So, essentially you have Remy, costa, oscar, willian, hazard, ramires and schurrle that can all play on the wings. What do you think is going to stop Jose from playing all three of dave, ivan and luis at the same time, with one of them acting as a side midfielder? The fact that Jose loaned him out (wanted to) shows Jose opinion concerning Salah.. When everyone's fit, Salah doesnt have a chance to get on matchday as well.

Last time Costa played on the wing was when Falcao was still there. Ramires will likely play on the wing instead of Salah/Oscar if we were playing Man City.

Costa was fairly average on the wings at Atleti and he made his mark as a ST there. No question there.

Like I said, Ramires might be deployed on the wings when we have to guard a lead during the course of a game and I doubt he'll start as winger again.

Remy will absolutely play on the wind when we are chasing a game and Costa plays as CF. Apart from that situation, it's essentially Hazard, Willian, Schurrle and Salah as options for the winger position.

I'm sure Salah will get enough gametime.

some players in the team never stay on the same performance like ramires and oscar even schurrle and u can figure that from last season they may start perfect but then later their performance goes down game after game , thats why i think salah will get his chance, because most of chelsea wingers not fit most of season except willian
