Juan Cuadrado

He would be a decent signing at the right price.

Is this actually gonna happen??

[mannyfreshh 164]

A lot of reliable sources have been saying this is practically a done deal. Welcome to chelsea cuadrado

He is quality player, but not potential world class and we would realy need some real quality ala Hazard added in attack.

But he is replacing Salah/Schurrle, probably both will be gone, come summer and we will probably go for another winger anyway.

Right now, Salah and Schurrle have been both realy poor this season, Cuadrado will be massive improvement over them. But long term, I dunno.

I just hope if he arrives, he will be one of those signing that look nothing realy special, but they turn to be brilliant.

Reus isn't going anywhere until the end of the season, no reason we can't have both:D

If true I think this guy helps us a lot! He is very direct and his dribbling is phenomenal. He is exactly the kind of squad player I want, a guy who can inject dynamism into the squad and plays the game at a good pace. Oscar will enjoy playing with him the most.

Salah hasn't played to be POOR!

He is a squad player, for 26m we're getting a high level squad guy who is capable of playing in all sorts of different formations. I like this move a lot! He's not 'world class' but the things he does well (dribbling and running at players) he is definitely world class at. Look at the teams who were looking at him too, Barca, Man Utd... both of them look to add dynamic players. I think Cuadrado is what our bench has been missing...

when he has he hasn't impacted any game... Not even against lower division teams... If he can't come in and take his chances against shitty opposition there is no way Jose will trust him to play in bigger games.

Willian has though?!

A player needs a consist run of games to improve his fitness and sharpness. He can't deliver deliver at the drop of the hat, and most can't either. People need to wake up.

He was amazing against Shrewsburry,huh?

He got an assist. Better than some of our starters.

For 26m, i don't think he will be on the bench a lot. He will be a legitimate threat to Willian or Oscar's place in the team.

He's not better than Willian or Schurrle, he is our weak link on the wing.

So be it... Has to earn his spot though

He is.

He offers something neither of them do. A directness and brute pace.

Willian has other aspects of his game that make him valuable. Have you ever seen Salah press and win a ball? Have you ever seen him crush a ball from outside the box into the top corner? Willian is miles ahead of Salah in terms of what the team needs are.

Willian's job is to offer an attacking threat, but he offers nothing going forward. He's a better RB than RWF.
