didierforever 7,349 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Let's face it, Pedro is a good signing but we are settling for him as we're not getting Greiz or Reus or Bale. why would we even want greizemann. jose has made it perfectly clear that oscar is our no.1 no.10 next season as well as there is no doubt about hazard being the no.1 LW. greizemann has barely ever played as a RW in his career. this greizemann rumors were baseless.

Supermonkey92 1,428 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Not impressed with this transfer at all. Mainly because he's just not that intelligent with the ball. I know I know he was in the greatest club if this generation. But, what, apart from running with the ball and finishes, he gives nothing with the ball at his feet. He runs down blind alleys wen he should pass, in big games he would never start, substitute coming on at 70+. It's a shame, we could do with a starter in this position.

Special Juan 28,141 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I would be surprised if weren't talking with them. Pedro is plan B. Otherwise we wouldn't wrapped up Pedro long ago. There is no need for lengthy negotiations as we are paying the release clause with PedroSee I'm on the other side of things, I can't see us entering into any negotiations with any of those players mentioned. We have a great attacking unit as it stands, these players mentioned would of meant huge amounts, possibly budget busting fees to get them here. Yes we have money but we are now a very careful planning club to what it used to be like, and looking from that point of view is also a reason we wouldn't entertain the coin that City have paid for Sterling.I think we are looking for clever signings in two ways, players that can adapt to a certain system and also offer strength to an already healthy looking squad without having a 40-50M man sat getting splinters on his arse.

didierforever 7,349 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 So you're implying you'd take Pedro over Greizman?for RW, yes. we have seen exactly how square pegs fit in round holes.also, i would take a 21mil pedro over 44mil greizemann. i have made my stance about greizemann pretty clear even his thread. he is just not what we want. infact, i have sincerest doubt of us ever being interested in him.

Pizy 18,907 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Pedro has apparently come out and said that the release clause has indeed been lowered, that he has not spoken to Mourinho, he admits that his situation is looking difficult, but hopes to retire a Barca player.

Chelsea4 1,521 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I don't understand, why sign another squad-rotation winger? Chelsea need a world class right winger, better spend the money elsewhere.Chelsea wingers are (Bold=Natural Position, the rest can be forced playing in that position if needed):LW: Hazard, Willian, Cuadrado, Remy, Oscar, Azpilicueta, Felipe Luiz, Costa (if Falcao play as CF)RW: Willian, Cuadrado, Hazard, Oscar, Remy, Ramires, CostaPlus Traore, Piazon, Moses, Marin and Salah... Piazon,Moses,Marin,Salah,Cuadrado are not better than Pedro and Pedro score more goals and has more assists than Willian and he hardly played.

Chelsea4 1,521 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Good.not good but what Pizy said its no true and Pedro will have talks with Enerique this week and he will mostly sign for Chelsea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Winning sides don't necessarily have to have the best eleven players in the world. They need players who can do a job and be a composite part of a functional machine, which is what José has done at Chelsea. If Mourinho thinks Pedro is the right move, then I'll back that decision and not write him off before he's even kicked a ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GZ25 45 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Piazon,Moses,Marin,Salah,Cuadrado are not better than Pedro and Pedro score more goals and has more assists than Willian and he hardly played.Pedro goals (league only) according to Wiki:2011–12 29 52012–13 28 72013–14 37 152014–15 35 6Cuadrado:2011–12 33 32012–13 36 52013–14 32 112014–15 17 4(Chelsea) 12 0To me he's not so much better than Cuadrado in scoring ability. And what happen to Cuadrado? Jose preferred Willian ahead of him even his goal record are better than Willian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Some dude on twitter called ''barcastuff' quoted Pedro saying he didnt talk to Mou, he likes barca, wants to go on pre season with them etc, but doesnt know what will happen in future...True or not, it makes sense, if he said now he talked to Mou and wants to move, but eventualy stays in barca would look like idiot.

Just sayingits quite early days for juan. remember he had just 343minutes of football for us (spread over 14 appearances). so i wont judge him on this.

Parky 739 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Not another right footed AM. We need a strong left footed AM like Griezmann who scores loads of goals and will give us more options up front as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
