He could be used in Pedro's position too like a second forward. If he also has the character, I definitely see Conte using and improving him.

If he can make serious minutes, like 20+ starts, sure. If it's not at Chelsea, I hope he stays at Monaco.

He's not playing for a Footlocker salary.

He can make stupid money at 21. Like Hazard. Like Benzema before Hazard.

Would you have advised Dembele to stay at Rennes?

No, not necessarily. Monaco provides a much environment than Rennes. EDIT: Move to Dortmund made sense.

Another player I want at Chelsea. Dembele and Demebele at Chelsea, pff. They actually play as regulars in the scenario in my head though.

SIGN HIM UP!

What an amazing player.

Mbappe too. Shit, we should sign 5 or 6 of this Monaco team.

Never going to happen, it has been reported that UTD have the first right of refusal as a part of the Martial deal.

Brilliant player, but where was he when Monaco didnt have the ball? Conte and Eden and Silva in same team? You must be having a laugh. 

Then we only need Verratti to complete the smallest side ever.

(Then I regret writing this post in summer when we actualy sign the boy)

You think Conte would that to every striker that he has on bench. He appreciates mobile strikers with ball skills. That's why Batsuhayi is not getting time and I don't think we'll sign Lukaku. Mbappe on the other hand is the type of attacker he very much likes.

I've watched about 10 Monaco matches and Mbappe is the one I want the most. He makes runs off the ball like costa, is energetic, but still wins balls in the air, takes shots from outside the box, has fantastic ball control under pressure, has good link up play, 11 goals in his last 11 games, so he's no slouch in finishing. And most importantly, his dribbling style reminds me of Thierry Henry. He's the guy we need from Monaco.

He'll be one of the best strikers of his generation, Anyone can bookmark me on this.

As you should. I dont give a damn about his height, he is not a defender, and its about time we have someone on the RW that makes the opponents shit their pants, he doesnt score alot, true, but he influences the game so much, that im certain that he would improve everyone around him. Its about time we relieve the burden on Hazard a Little bit, and i dont think we will have a player as good as him and available so Soon. We need to grab this opportunity now. Also, his work rate os terrific, dont judge It based on one game.

We'd basically have 2 prime Ribery's.

Barcelona made it work with Messi/Pedro on the wings & Hazard/Silva are taller than both of them.

But you need a Robben too.

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

He's a playmaker in the mold of David Silva. I'm not sure where some of these other comparisons are coming from. 

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

Bernado Silva is a very good player but he's not the priority now and shouldn't be. We currently have a gaping hole in our midfield next to Kante. We need a new CB to replace Cahill who is an average player if we're being honest. There are also question marks around the quality of both Marcos Alonso and Moses in the long term. Costa's future is also shrouded.

Can we stop comparing to barca? And Pep? And his type of players? And spanish silky technical players?

As far I know Pep did fuckall without his barca team that was amazing and cant be built again. 

Not to mention we play in England. If we played in spain or even germany ok. But we dont. You need players that can last whole season in high tensity. You need Lampards and not Xavis. You need Essiens and not Iniestas.

There is not a coincidence we are winning the league after dropping Oscar and Cesc for Moses and Kante.

Call me oldfashioned, its as simple as it goes. 

I see City and Arsenal trying to create next barca do realy brilliant in CL yeah...

Christensen is coming back next year, we dont need a CB. I agree we have bigger "worries" than Pedro, but we wont have another opportunity as this one, he wont be available past this summer, this is our only chance. Besides, we have a butload of cash that has Just been added to, with the Oscar sale.

Also disagree with the Silva comparison, he is faster and a better dribbler than David, If anything, i think he resembles the current Messi , acting much more like a playmaker for his side and a bit less explosive than before bit who still runs with the ball alot

It's gotta be Alexis Sanchez or Bernardo Silva.

No Alternatives. If CFC want to be serious UCL competitors next season, then we desperately need to form an ELITE front three, and that entails cutting out Willian from the rotation of  LF/RF as much as possible. Willian should only be relied upon in an extreme injury climate, in-fact, I'd argue provided we don't sign a RWB this summer, that Willian start playing at RWB next season. 

Back to Bernardo Silva. He's a fantastic talent, and even though he's not an extreme goal-scoring threat, he'll provide an amazing (Goals and Assists) output all-together. He's so young, there's no saying he can't score 10-15 goals in all comps if he were to come here. And absolutely love his work-rate for the team, the complete player imo.
