Muzchap 8,966 Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 What do you think of this lad?I like the idea of him in the pivot alongside Matic, big, strong and wins lots of free kicks - for a modest fee he could be an excellent option against the smaller teams - he looked unplayable yesterday against Everton and I remember him single handedly destroying us at Newcastle a few seasons back...

petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Didn't he say his dream is playing for Arsenal one day? And he's been linked to a move to the Emirates for some weeks now. Still, I'd have him here, but I don't know if he is willing to choose a bench role at Chelsea over a starting one at Arsenal.He'd definitely be an upgrade to Mikel and he has played that DM role before at Toulouse. Actually Pardew was the one that moved him further up the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mak 4,459 Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Mikel?! I'd say he's more like Ramires...Mikel is one of a kind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
special Eden 78 Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 price? Sell Schurrle and try for Reus first.. if he's not available Moussa is a very good alternative! Pace, technique, strength and working hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Rich mans Mikel......suitable for us!He's nothing like Mikel. More like a technically better Ramires tbh. Really good player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando 6,602 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Definitely would be a great buy for our mid. We can even try to buy this January as he can play in the CL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,889 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 If Juventus buy Ramires and we could get him for a decent fee I'd take him. Big, strong, athletic player and can play deeper, as a 10 or on the wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellzfresh 7,229 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 He is like essien, strength, power and pace in the midfield. Would slot in easily for us during champions League games where fabregas can't play in the pivot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Playing for newcastle or chelsea isnt the same thing though. He would be good bench option, but starting 11 is another thing.He isnt regular starter for france either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would be good bench option, but starting 11 is another thing.He isnt regular starter for france either.Nasri doesnt start for France, nor does koschielnyGood thing about sissoko is his versatility. He can play in the pivot or one of the three am positions as well. Similar to rambo, except sissoko has very good technical ability and power.

Therefore even if we get him for 10m and he doesnt perform well enough, it will be wasted buy. I much prefer one quality player over 5 cheaper ones. But obv., in january Sissoko for 10m (or whatever the price) would add something different to our team for sure.Only question is if we need changes right now, or wait for better options in summer.Just pointing out, players like Schneiderlin, Sissoko or Mirallas would improve our bench big time, but Im not sure if they are starters. If we are looking for Ramires replacement, then Sissoko is fine. But if we are looking for someone to play next to Matic, its another thing. While Sissoko is good (bit inconsistent and gets lot of cards), he was never realy tested in big teams and who knows, maybe he explodes here or we will need to buy again in summer. Obv if we buy him, atm Im not sure if we are even linked with him.,.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
