Mufassir08 2,400 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 We dont need another attacking midfielder.Plus eriksen might struggle with the pace of the english game,he would be best off going to serie A or la liga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 in the one side,,i'm very happy to see another talented or wonderkid player for chelsea. but in the other side,,no more place for youngster like Chalobah or josh in the future....Very much doubt it. His father doesn't want him to sign for us after we turned him down as a teenager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him coming here would not affect them two. Albeit the move is very unlikely. I doubt our staff will make a bid as we suitable players in that position and Eriksen will not want to come here IMO. He has so many suitors and the one he does join is likely to offer him a place in the starting eleven every week. That will not be us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif 6,006 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Hm. Don't see it happening given the fact he seems incredibly ambitious and while clearly believing in his own talent probably wouldn't want to compete for his spot like he would here - which is what our team currently lacks. Then also, yeah, the whole thing about his dad not liking us. I feel he'd fit in best at one of the top Italian clubs as a rotation player or perhaps Liverpool.A note: I've never felt that the hype surrounding him has been completely justified. I understand he's a good young player in his position, but I could quite easily come up with another 10 players who'd cost under £15m (around half of what Ajax are truly seeking from a potential transfer I believe), likely who're around the same age & talent as him. I believe that, like with Barcelona youth products, the fact he's simply from the Ajax system and gets games instantly adds to his reputation without it being earned and bumps up his price a hefty amount. I don't see that special 'it' in him like so many, including myself, see in players such as Oscar, Gotze, Hazard, Belhanda, De Bruyne, Draxler, Isco etc.His playmaking abilities cannot really be questioned - but everything else can be. Here is a player who, if taken out of his environment and tested at the highest level, would fail the test and regress into a squad player in my opinion.

Rmpr 8,977 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Not needed, the same case of Isco. Next in line please... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,191 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Not needed as said. We need a Modric type, we are stacked with attacking midfield players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The only place to be 11,313 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 We need this player.....Just kidding. I like him as a player, but if I had to describe his style of play it would be 'like Oscar but not as good'. Classic playmaker who can be at the centre of a team and he'll make whichever side he joins better. Arsenal don't really need another Cazorla/Wilshere, we don't, United could do but he's not ideal for them, City could go for him as competition for Silva but I think Liverpool probably suit him best as a replacement for Gerrard and competition for the Brazilian guy whose name I can't remember at this moment and can't be bothered to google despite typing this explanation probably taking considerably more time to do.Eriksen will just be the guy we could've got all those years ago....boo fricking hoo.

He is actually more like Kaka really...Eriksen has those quality runs that is not part of Oscar's game.Although, I totally agree with you, "not as good as Oscar".

JDY 1,290 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 The fact that Ajax would bite your hand off for any inflated figure says enough. He's a good player but is easily replaceable for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoSalah 8,889 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 What's with all the NO NO NO people ? He's incredibly talented, we'd be lucky if we get him Hes not that good, hes been overhyped for years. He has certain qualities but he isn't amazing. Hes also a #10 not a #8 so hes a no no basically. Anyway Eriksen should of moved a year ago to a more competitive league, the Dutch league is a good league to develop talent but it can only take players so far in all honestly especially a kid billed with the talent and ability he is meant to have. I mean look at Suarez, he did well in Holland, scored over 100 goals and eventually moved to Liverpool, if he stayed in Holland he'd be able to play really average and probably still score for fun. He needs to play in a more competitive team and league to push himself to the best of his abilities. I don't think hes as great as he was made out to be a few years ago and I hope we don't get him as we have 4 better AM options; Hazard, Mata, Oscar, De Bruyne.

This summer, next year? 3 years time? Hes got to make the jump before its too late or he'll just be known as that kid who ripped up the Dutch division but never had a crack anywhere else.

Every single time I watched him, he has been invisible. Twice against my country he sucked. In Eredivisie , it's the same as Brazil. You have the space. Whereas in England you don't.Against United he was also nothing special. Neither was he against other teams I have seen. He has an eye yes. But he is no explosive.
