Thiago Alcantra.

I'm assuming he means Thiago who came from a Brazilian background but obtained a Spanish citizenship

Oh right, forgot about his Brazillian background ..

But wasn't he born in Italy ? and playing for Spain..

Thiago is the best of both worlds.

Hi guys!!! I'm a new member of this forum. Nice to meet you :)

My name is Filippo, I'm 24 years old and I'm Italian. I'm very fond about football and I would like to speak with you also for improving my english, because it's not perfect :(

I'm a supporter of Internazionale Milano, but I also a fan of Chelsea Fc from Claudio Ranieri's period and I love your but also my manager :) JOSE' MOURINHO... I think he's the best coach and the best manager in the world.

One day, I would like to attend a match at Stanford Bridge, because the atmosphere of English football and mostly the Stanford Bridge's climate are fantastic!!!

And on Monday we have to win with Manchester City!!!

Come on Chelsea!!!

In which position so many fans here you want to play him? I don´t understand. He is too slow to play CAM in our football and our pivots are now good covered with Matic.

people want him to play next to Matic as if we play possession football! Ramires - Matic pivot is much better for us with our counter attacking style.

I would like a serious midfielder... I can't see still Esteban Cambiasso...

can you lend me a player such as obi mikel for my Inter Milan?? :):)

in my opinion, it's wrong to sell mata... he's a fantastic player, why did josè decide to sell him??

80% of the teams in the PL are sitting deep and dont give us any space to counter-attack, so in most of all oppositions, ramires-matic is completely useless.

yes and those teams who sit deep, most of them try to counter attack on us which is why Ramires - Matic are perfect! Kroos isn't what we need against those teams who sit deep, its a world class striker!

:carlo: They really aren't. When teams sit deep we only need 1 DM sitting in front of the defence. That guy should be Matic. Against teams that sit deep Ramires is useless going forward.

Honestly the stronger we get as a team the more teams are gonna park the bus like West Ham did.

He is a great player who I don't want to see at Manchester United at all, but before Guardiola came he held an attacking role under Heyneckes. It's only when Guardiola came that he changed Kroos's role to a deeper one. This isn't necessarily a bad thing at all because he's taken to the role like a fish in water managing a staggering 92% pass success in the Bundesliga. His versatility, youth and success would make him a great signing who I wouldn't complain about. Nonetheless, I'd question a move for him by us with our current squad.

For Man United his position in the pivot alongside Carrick/Fellaini is obvious but we have Matic, Van Ginkel, Ramires, Lampard and Mikel (Luiz too) who can cover midfield and had to sell Mata because our attacking midfield options are so strong. Van Ginkel particularly is a 21 year old box to box midfielder (that Mourinho himself has lauded as a Gerrard/Lampard hybrid ) who would work amazingly with Matic IMO. Unless we plan on selling Ramires/Mikel and letting go of Lampard I can't see the room for him here. I still doubt Bayern will let him go so easily and when a player of his enormous quality becomes available it's stupid not to follow it further, but like Bayern did with Kroos, I think we have a player with amazing potential quietly recovering in our ranks who given the opportunity will develop into something special.
