MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Another plus about this guy is that he is hardly ever injured too. Check his record, he has been out for only 2 weeks out of like 3 years. http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/juan-cuadrado/verletzungen/spieler/91970 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel1980 1,425 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Still not convinced by him. 26million pounds is a lot of sum. And if we are replacing Schurrle/Willian in RW we need a player who have decent output i.e goals and assists or who can be decisive in final third. But this guys output is just marginally better than Schurrle and WIllian.So let's see. I'm not having any high hopes on him...He has a much better output than Willian. Willian: 71 matches, 7 goals scored: a goal every 10th matchCuadrado at Fiorentina: 105 matches, 25 goals: a goal every 4th match (pretty much the same output Hazard has for us from open play). His assists stats are much better than Willian's too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidzeret 2,257 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 If we bring in Cuadrado, then we'll have 4 established pen takers in Costa, Haz, Drogs and him. Vital for the the cup games ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vital for the the cup games ahead.He normally doesn't take penalties(he took only 1 penalty ever for Fiorentina). And Costa isn't an established penalty taker for us. I don't know where people got the idea Costa will take penalties for sure. When Hazard didn't play, Fabregas took the penalty for us.

When Hazard didn't play, Fabregas took the penalty for us.He just scored one yesterday?Also our order is this I think:1st Hazard, 2nd Fabregas, 2nd Drogba(if he is on the pitch), 3rd Costa, 4th Oscar. Oscar and Costa can also probably swap around but we will never find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 The one he took yesterday was the only one he took.Agree on our order.Then he has 100% record. Established pk taker then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel1980 1,425 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Took them pretty consistently for Atletico I think?He missed a good share of them at Atletico. I wouldn't choose him as a second or even third choice penalty taker and it seems Jose doesn't either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prettr sure he'll take one in a shootout situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prettr sure he'll take one in a shootout situation.Cuadrado normally doesn't take penalties for Fiorentina and yesterday's penalty was the only one he scored for them at least in official competitions. Costa failed to score quite a few penalties at Atletico. He might take one in a shootout situation, but I don't think he'll be a nailed on choice in a non-shootout situation. And I'm pretty sure either Hazard or Fabregas (or Drogba if he's playing) will take the decisive(4th or 5th) penalty in a shootout situation, not Costa.

MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 If he does leave this proves new contract means FA if the player wants to move and a big club comes in to put a big bidhttp://www.espnfc.com/fiorentina/story/2107622/juan-cuadrado-signs-new-contract-at-fiorentina-until-2019He only signed it just 3 months ago, now look like already off. So even if Hazard put a new 5 years contract I would slightly be worried about potential Madrid come knocking but confident we can keep him by bringing trophies yearly and challenging for the titles.
