JaKstone 307 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 People are calling Arda Turan overrated. We learn new things so yeah it's probably one of them .Yeah well talk to you if we sign him and see how much of an improvement he will be in our team.

supporter 3,088 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I think Arda Turan would give us something we do not have, excepting Eden Hazard, the ability to break the monotonous and static rhythm that we have had sometimes in the past two years with Jose.We are a solid and well-built team, but in some games, with few spaces, only Eden Hazard gives the feeling of doing something different to revolutionize a game.Perhaps we have been too predictable at certain times of the season because we do not have players who can break the pace of the game like Messi, Neymar, Silva ... only Eden Hazard, and a player can not stand all this pressure.Arda Turan is one of those players who can change games with his moves. Someone different to surprise our rivals.Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Technically, he's really good. Dribbling, ball control, passing. But at the end of the day it usually results in nothing.Pretty much what we already have in Willian. Just play Willian at #10 instead of buying Turan imo.He is more intelligent and clever with ball (for example he doesnt do stepovers and then make back pass like willian). But I agree, he isnt one to change or decide the game. However, under pressure we only have Hazard, Matic who are capable of keeping it. Cesc is shit when under pressure, Oscar and Willian too. Arda is alot more reliable, much like Hazard to keep the ball, I think we would benefit alot. But its up to Mou. If we will keep possession more next season, Turan would be PERFECT, if we go on counters, Reus, Bale, Griezmann, anyone who is fast, good dribbler and has finish in him, would fit more than Arda. We have still struggled to break opponent defense, but improved alot since year before, but IMO our bigger problem is no natural finisher apart from Costa. Like I said, someone who pops more goals would do better. Maybe even Fekir, who is quite similar to Arda but has more end product in assists and goals (that said Arda had it too when he was playing in turkey).Its up to Mou. Arda will give us more balance in attack, but not pace, bite and power (Turan is quite strong player, but stands out in spain. english cbs are alot more powerful).Honestly speaking, our main weakness last year was midfield in big games. Adding another world class midfielder and go with 4:3:3 will elevate us on next level. Or some great player like Bale on RW to have nearly perfect attack. Mou should target that if he wants us to improve, not bring average players. One top CM or RW and we are set for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif 6,006 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Hazard needs a player who focuses on assisting him while he focuses assisting Diego; he'd be much more effective if he needn't assist himself for every goal; and that's why Turan would be useful IMO.

Polo7 3,496 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Are we even discussing Oscar being as good as Turan? Oscar has been horse shit for a year and a half. Its not just a game of assists and goals, but about contributing to the victory. I hope Oscar steps up but I am starting to like the idea of Turan joining us.

nadavTKL 1,787 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Cesc is shit when under pressure, Oscar and Willian too.Come on, Willian is shit under pressure? thats nonsense.Cesc also isnt "Shit", you're being way too critical. Cesc's problems with ball pressure is imo because of his physics, so in central midfield some midfielders can overpower him. But his ball control is probably the best after Hazard.

Henrique 9,133 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 People comparing Oscar and Turan. First they are different kind of players. Second, people in this forum usually judge attacking players by the amount of goals they score. His career record is far from impressive. 13 league goals in 4 seasons for Atletico.And last, come one people, I'm sure you all barely watched an Atletico game last season. Many here only watched Turan playing against us last season.About Turan as a Chelsea player, he is the last thing this team need. The team is already solid in so many ways, but lack something special in the attack. Turan is a player of few goals and few assists. Imagining an attacking mid trio of Willian-Turan-Hazard, we can only imagine the team will rely even more on Hazards magic to win games, since Turan and Willian are unlikely to score more than 5 goals combined or even make more than 5 assists a season.Oscar have a decent goal record, and can produce some magic moments like the assist to Hazard's goal against United.For me Turan will be a squad player. But it seems some people see him as an instant starter. For me he is a very good player, but definitely not what this team needs. We are full of "hardworking" players, but its time to add something more to this squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Come on, Willian is shit under pressure? thats nonsense.Cesc also isnt "Shit", you're being way too critical. Cesc's problems with ball pressure is imo because of his physics, so in central midfield some midfielders can overpower him. But his ball control is probably the best after Hazard.I will try to explain; while Willian has good hold up play, when he gets under pressure, he almost never pulls something out of it. He might shield the ball, but wont make a pass, dribble etc to create opportunity. Thats why I think he is shit under presssure. He cant do anything but stay there and protect the ball. Hazard on other hand can despite being pressed, trick the opponent and run away/pass etc. Willian has his qualities, but when pressed he doesnt offer much in attacking sense. About Cesc, you are right. He has very good ball control and tehnique, but loses that when he is pressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldportblue 547 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 we definitely don't need this guy and i really hope we don't spend a dime on him... he is slow as fuck, no end product, no thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supporter 3,088 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 According to reports from Catalonia, the candidate for the presidency of Barcelona (and current president of Barcelona) Bartolomeu, who is now the favorite to win the elections in FC Barcelona, has told to reporters that he will not sign Arda Turan, That Turan is not one of their objectives, and that he will announce in two weeks the signing of a great Spanish player, a top player for the midfield like Xavi Hernandez, a player who plays in La Liga, and, according to reports (not according Bartolomeu) that player will be Koke, Isco or Ander Iturraspe (one of them), but other journalists talk about Ander Herrera, but he not currently plaing in La Liga.And reports from Catalonia say That Bartolomeu said that Turan has an agreement with a TOP major European team, and it seems that this team could be PSG.Today "Marca", a sports newspaper from Madrid, says that Bartolomeu and Gil Marin, an important man in Atletico de Madrid, They have gathered this weekend in Ibiza to talk About Koke and Pedro Rodriguez "Pedrito" to make a deal.In principle, Koke would be one more season at Atletico Madrid and then he would go to FC Barcelona. In Spain the rules restrict a player to play in two different teams of La Liga if that player has played more than four matches with a team. Therefore, Koke could only go to Barcelona this season if he was not playing until January, which seems unlikely counting with Eurocup next season.Regards.
