Rumoured Arda Turan

[nadavTKL 1,787]

Disappointed, if Chelsea pushed more and offered more money he would be Chelsea for sure. But at the end 34m€ + 7m€ is a bit steep to be honest. Still disappointing they didn't push harder.

Who said we "offered" anything?

I think i know which twitter account you listen to, and i dont get why you take his words as a fact.

Its kind a ridiculous to be "Disappointed" because of one twitter account with 5000 followers. Have you read some of his other "info"? looks like bulshit.

Not necessarily. It takes more than individuals to make a team. See: The England team of circa 2004-12

Which had a squad available at various times:

Hart

G. Neville Ferdinand Terry A. Cole

Lamps Scholes Stevie G

Beckham J. Cole

Owen

How we never won anything will never be explained. One problem was Lamps and Gerrard not being able to play together in midfield, but the managers never had the foresight to drop one of them. Also, quite simply, the squad just would not gel, for whatever reason.

IMO, PRT will not work either. It will mirror the situation of England in the 2000s - too much attack, too little hold.

When did England ever play that team? The players you mentioned enjoyed their primes at different times, except for Ferdinand, Terry, Cole, Lamps and Gerrard. There was always something missing in the England team. And like lucio said, other teams had players just as good or better.

Turan after 6 months http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQq-Ml34qoTR6sorrmuxcQi3zb_VZC1kHFST-jOt98fDqRrU8IkpMVkQg

The only team that could have matched that on paper was Spain's 2008-2012 nearly all Barcelona team. Because it gelled.

To be fair, Carrick should have played instead of or behind Gerrard and/or Lampard. We would have ended up coming a lot further in major tounaments, our all action midfield (as Real Madrid discovered when Modric was injured last season) destroyed us. A balanced midfield would have been Carrick (holding) Lamps (b2b) and Gerrard (10).

I think the teams France , brazil and Italy took to 2006 wc were a bit better

Pedro knows he won't play, and Turan can play on the wings too. It's worth a punt

How do you go from Arda is perfect to Pedro is perfect? Two players with completely different characteristics.

Won't play until January....it will take that long to shave his fucking beard off.

he can still play in friendlies so will most likely play against Chelsea in a few weeks

Well I have few different sources that I managed to select over 3 years in which I trust but I won't reveal them at all since it is always like that "bullshit" etc. Whatever.

Anyway Atletico CEO said that there was indeed several other offers for Arda. So again, Chelsea had Arda on the plate and didn't take that. But I have to agree price was a bit steep. Hopefully they sort this shit out after selling Salah and/or Cuadrado.

You wont "reveal" it? why? its a forum, why would anyone listen to your sources when you cant reveal them? and why do you care if someone would say its bullshit?

Weeks ago you posted this "ChelseaRumours" website, is it one of them? they say Chelsea didnt want Turan.

I believe there were "several other offers", it doesnt mean its Chelsea.

I never said Arda was perfect, I meant he can play on the wings for Barcelona to replace pedro. But we need a goalscorer more in our team and a box to box midfielder in the pivot. We have a player like Turan in willian so I wasn't motivated that much.

Both Coles, GNev was still going strong and Beckham was still in the RM team in 2006. Lamps was in his prime. Ferdinand too. Terry was in the team. Carrick was too - my mistake, I should have posted him instead of Scholes. Owen was in his prime at that year's WC. 10 of that 11 (Hart being a big exception) could or did play together at Japan 06.

Thank fuck for that. He's a lazy 'oul bastard that Turan isn't he?

[The Skipper 20,609]

I'm actually very happy the club didn't decide to spend 41m euros on Beard Game.

Lol, I already said why I won't reveal them. Are you reading this ? It's pointless tbf. Why are people constantly and constantly asking for a source ? If it's Di Marzio - it's Di Marzio and it's all over Internet. If it's guy I trust and don't won't to say who then it's obvious that people should take that with pinch of salt ? I'm not Angel Gil Marin, lol, nor I did talk to him regarding Turan - I think it's obvious so I don't feel the need to challenge someone's intelligent so much ().

BTW if Vidal transfer won't get through I won't spam this forum any longer re:transfers. It's very big story and Juventus CEO denied this already so if this will be completed I will be amazed of severe "ITK knowledge". I'm very much looking forward to see this. Otherwise I give up.

good news on a Monday.

[Unionjack 7,531]

Implying Shaqiri would want to leave Stoke.

Implying we could tempt Song/Rudiger to come.

I for 1 bed wetter am also going to start going commando and wearing brown cords cause I dont mind admitting I'm bloody nervous.

Less than 3 weeks till the US and Im a daft twat thinking we should have had our MAIN incoming lads in by then so Mou could be doing his job experimenting with positions n shit.

As long as we dont go getting another Cuadrado,Salah,Del Horno,Andriy,Filipe,Kezman that were either panic buys,not used for whatever reason or just crap.

No worries tho eh.
