nyikolajevics 2,713 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Rumours have died down.Even if we don't sign anyone we need to get rid of one non-HG player and Mourinho has told several times that we wouldn't buy any new player.Benatia is an outstanding player but I am happy for Zouma and Christensen.

LAM09 7,070 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Roma's sporting director has travelled to London to discuss 27-year-old Mehdi Benatia's potential £30m transfer to Chelsea. I hope it's true! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonlol 154 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 our cb's are our weak link; I hope this is true. Cahil is dead on average and terry has 0 pace. Last year our goals conceded was good though only because we played a system to cover for the short comings of our cb's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zolayes 14,489 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 is he a striker ,, YES ,, make room for him ,,,,,, any other position NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Yes, the rumours are true. Sabatini is in London to negociate the transfers of Destro to Tottenham (€25m / £20m) and Benatia to Chelsea (€37m / £30m). He will be in the stands for the West Ham - Tottenham game. Also he will meet with City to negociate a loan deal (with option to buy next summer) for Jovetic.Reports say that he will then go to France to enquire about the availabilty of Kalou and Basa from Lille.

King11Didier 916 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Why Chelsea will go for another foreign player when they already have enough problem with that. And also I think CB is the last position we should think in the market. We need striker, not defender. If we buy another defender this season, then Zouma won't get enough time and may become the next flop in Chelsea. Next summer will be different, but for now we are more than ok in defence.

nyikolajevics 2,713 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Can he play in the pivot?Wat?? No.. He is a CB. Also, we have Matic, Ramires, Mikel, Fabregas and Van Ginkel to play in the pivot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
