Jype 6,398 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Where would he play?Anywhere in the front line. He's played up front, left wing, right wing and behind another striker so he's quite versatile.This guy is class. Not quite convinced if he'd be able to do the job as a lone striker where we'd most likely want him to play but if Mourinho thinks so, I would not question him. If Lukaku goes, Lavezzi wouldn't be the worst choice to get as the 2nd choice striker after someone like Costa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,146 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 The only way he fits is if Oscar or Willian sit on the bench--------------Costa------------Hazard -- Willian -- LavezziI could understand it if one was going to be sold but I can't see that. I'm a big Lavezzi fan but right now there is no place for him here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if Jose sees him as a striker and would play him as one, there would most certainly be a place for him in the team. The fact he would also be able to play as an AM would only be a bonus then.

nadavTKL 1,787 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 In the last few hours, #PSG met with Lavezzi's entourage to try and secure a contract extension. #CFC are still interested. (via @DiMarzio) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be absolutely livid if we swapped Hazard for cash and Lavezzi or something ridiculous like that. If PSG are serious about Hazard then offer £100m or GTFO.

I'd be absolutely livid if we swapped Hazard for cash and Lavezzi or something ridiculous like that. If PSG are serious about Hazard then offer £100m or GTFO.Agreed, for Oscar I could possibly live with but even then I would think it would have to be Lavezzi+ something like 15-20m min as we could always move Hazard/Willian to the middle. Although I still prefer us to sign someone like Reus or Gritzmann if we are gonna sell Oscar. In general it would not be a good move in anyway for us. Can't believe the clubs still haven't finished obsessing with getting CAM every transfer window especially after selling and signing so many in the last 2 years. This money would be better used on a top class CM like Pogba or Vidal, or a backup striker to Costa like Mandzukic. Even a LB like Shaw would be better use of money than this.

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 also considering bringing forward plans to acquire Lazar Markovic (Evening Standard)Whatever happened to this? I know he's at Benfica but people reported he's on loan there from us.. Which can't be true because the club would've made an announcement?

zyzz 711 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Just when you give the DM some credit for breaking the story about Luiz they go back to the roots. "The French club have signed David Luiz and are keen on taking Eden Hazard, Oscar and Petr Cech from Chelsea’s squad too." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AK-3001 286 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 I like him, no doubt, but I don't think our Attacking midfield needs any changes now.Also, he can't play over 70 minutes in France and gets substituted almost every game. And for all I know, The Premier League is even more physically demanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thendo 1,088 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 He's 29 years old, I see no sense in buying him after all the talks of us building for the future etc. Wouldn't be much of an upgrade to any of our current players either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,952 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 PSG really seem to be very envious of us and our players. They seemingly want everyone.Imagine if we bought Pogba. They wouldn't be able to take it. They'd be throwing insane bids at us left and right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bababoom 4,478 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Daily mail reporting it as well, FFS, do we really need any more attacking midfielders/wingers? if and i say if we do actually sign him we may have praised the board far too soon... £30 million for a 29 year old? i hope it's BS.

iseah100 5,612 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Fuck, if we're gonna pay £30m on Lavezzi throw in the extra £5-10m and get Reus. We don't need this guy AT ALL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
