Think Robben, Sneijder, Higuain, Makelele... the list is endless. Could James be part of that list? And the most recent who has lit up the PL in Özil. James could do the same thing Özil has done for Arse since leaving Madrid which is give us another creative spark that's on Hazard's level ability wise. Scores, assists, fantastic passer, crosser, dribbler, and one of the best freekick takers out there. I really hope there's truth in these rumors. We need another attacking player with world class talent. He'd have a chip on his shoulder and want to prove that Madrid are wrong to want rid of him.

Edited the above post to reflect that. Then you also have Di Maria. It's ridiculous. Please make it happen CFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From looking at RM sites the majority of supporters while they all like him and want him to stay, understand that he wants and deserves regular playing time and they can't see him getting it there. And as long as they dont lose money on him and doesn't goto a rival they don't mind him leaving to us. Hope this aint another pipe dream. Had enough of those already.

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 2 hours ago, Unionjack said: I know theres alot of peeps here think theyre just bit players and remember them under different managers etc but both have come back full of confidence and wanting to prove themselves. I like Willian alot so I'm not saying sell him. But hes not been right so far this season for whatever reason. So I would rather play someone who is going to be up for it. Cant be sentimentle right now. Already picking players like Matic,Oscar,Bane for some other reason than theyre the best option for the team. Nah I completely agree with you. I do appreciate what Willian did last season in terms of some important goals from free kicks and whatnot. But he's also one that will need replacing out of this team, he's still not good at making decisions in the final third of the box. Much like prior to last season, he's good at running with the ball and taking on opposing full-backs on generally anyone but once he crosses into that final third he's a headless chicken. I'd love it if we could convince Cuadrado to stay with us and really unleash that potential he's shown for Columbia and Juventus, but all the rumours seem to suggest he's very unsettled and doesn't want to stay in England. I guess that's a consequence of loaning someone out within 6 months of signing them - Thanks Jose lol. If Conte can convince him to stay I see no reason why he can't displace Willian as our primary right-winger. 29 minutes ago, The Skipper said: Against stubborn sides, why shouldn't we play James, Cesc and Eden? Imagine the creativity and attacking potential between the three. Flank them with work horses like Costa, Willian and Kante and suddenly you have a great team. I do agree here, it will just depend on Conte. He says he's flexible in that if he sees something tactical isn't working he's not afraid to make the change, so perhaps we would see less Matic and more creative attacking players. You just worry with the unstable defence we have coupled with just Kante marshalling ahead of them, we're quite easily exposed on the counter attack. But as you say, if we signed a LB & CB then that works for us. 10 days left of the window, I'll be amazed if we can make 3 world class signings. Waking up on Monday to the news of James & Koulibaly would put me over the moon! Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supermonkey92 1,428 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Dont want this to happen. Very clumsy when pressed, easily rushed. Which is a shame because when he has time and space he has a great left foot. Passing, shooting or crossing you name it. Not a big game player though and wed be stupid to spend 70m.

Pizy 18,994 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Riding the bench for their opener as expected. Zidane doesn't fancy him even when a few of their best players aren't playing. Come on, James. Move on over to Chelsea and be the star that we've seen you be before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, and to think this match was without Cristiano so when he's back that's another player ahead of him in the pecking order. Benzema will shake things up too, even if he doesn't play in the exact same position as James he's still another option for Zidane to choose for the starting XI or to take on as a substitute so it might further limit his playing time. Guillem Balague apparently has said he believes James will be off as soon as a €60M bid comes in. That's 52M in pounds, whoever gets him will get a pretty good deal considering the price madness of this transfer window. Having given it some thought I really wouldn't mind signing James. Not really sure where he'd fit in but I have faith in Conte to get the best out of everyone and an in-form James is a world class player who would improve pretty much any side in the world. At the moment Chelsea are too reliant on Hazard in attack but James would maybe change that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
