Joker10 946 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Sell him and get in a class DM would be great.If he is sold there is not going to be any replacement me think. We have Romeu, Meireles, Lampard, and Mikel for two positions, all that it change is Romeu moving up in the pecking order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duppy Conqueror 1,537 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 i don`t know if they still do it nor 100% if it`s true, but i heard when Dean Saunders went off to play in Turkey when he arrived they cut the throat of a goat infront of him and smeared the blood on his him for luck.i really don`t want to diss anyone for their culture but even by my standards i find that a bit radio rental. hope Bison is prepared for that if he goes to them and they still do it/do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I received with it with pride mingled with humilitywas you told/asked beforehand?it`s that really that kinda made me think how mad that would be..i just had an image in my minds eye of him meeting the club,fans etc..for the first time and what would be going through his head if they just dropped it on him, like i imagine say Oscar`s face would drop the first time he`s offered jellied eels for example. anyway i guess it would be something Essien would be aware of if they do it in Africa too..

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Would get rid of him sooner rather than later. Don't get me wrong, he's a lovely guy but he simply has absolutely nothing to offer by now. We should have sold him a year ago before he got injured that summer, we probably would have got 20+m now we can be lucky if we get 10 or so. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2194947/Fenerbahce-want-Raul-Meireles-Michael-Essien-Chelsea.htmlReportedly they alsow ant Meireles, I'd gladly part with, too. Would like Capoue or M'vila as replacement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 It would be utter suicide selling both Essien and Meireles so late without any replacement, our double pivot would look terrifyingly thin, unless RDM has plans to play Oscar there or move back to 4-3-3.Essien if we get a good offer we should sell but Meireles (as he showed at the weekend) can still offer a decent squad role for this season atleast.Lets not do a Arsenal and chuck away all our experience in one go.

BleedsBlue 1,549 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 There shouldn't be any need of signing a defensive midfielder if Essien leaves this summer.I am sure that Romeu can be a direct replacement and would benefit the team more with his inclusion rather than of Essiens.Michael has been an integral part of the team and I thank him for all of his contributions.He definitely was one of the best midfielders in the world but its best if we move on and give the youth more chances.

Tomo 21,751 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 If we loan a player to Arsenal again then is all im going to have to say.Everton would be a good move for him if we really want to see if he can get back to some sort of him, although having said that i think Everton are a bit more depth to their squad away to becoming serious top 4 contenders.

DH1988 1,348 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Prefer to have him here. I assume Ghana qualified for the African cup? If so that's a good opportunity for him to get a run of games together for the latter part of the season. Don't think people realise just what our schedule and total games are this season, huuuuuuuge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
