Jase 43,479 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Now now @Chelsea4, remember to insert the player's name properly. We wouldn't want another WUM to moan about names here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We wouldn't want another WUM to moan about names here. maybe they are two different players ,, I find all these names confusing ,, Its why we should only buy English players .. like Terry or Cole or Cole or Coleor maybe Cahill or even Stones ... But Brazillians are ok as well Oscar Fred Hulk especially Alex ,, he still writes on here (not as well as he used to )if we MUST have all these Abcdz piuos can we please call them Dave ,, Rodney or Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 £15m? Fantastic price if true I heard that Monaco wanted 30m euros for him. Will do for a couple of years until the next big defender is available or Varane is tired of Madrid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 He is quick, strong, getting in best age for CB and did well in CL. Under Mou, he could reach one level further. Plus he made good CB pairing with Riccy at Monaco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duppy Conqueror 1,557 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 can`t say I`ve seen much of him. but I presume somebody at the club has and 15m tho once our record signing price when we got JFH, is not so much in todays market.is the kind of price that doesn`t add too much expectations and be able to move him out if it doesn`t work out..we need one more defender this year but more in the next few years. Kalas hopefully counts for one of those.tho I`d be happy if we had him now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando 6,602 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Think is piss poor planning to be waiting this late to get a player. Everyone was hyping up and high fiving for last season transfer window but I knew it was too good to be true. Brought down to earth all the high and lofty people. And not to mention to have done the same thing like we did with Rooney in wasting all our time in one target and then settling for a temporary option....

Unionjack 7,531 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Everywhere Ive looked say hes just ok. They say hes more associated with a Barcelona style of play and would fit well with their philosophy.He is good with the ball at his feet, is left-sided and would fit well into Barcelona's possession-based style of play.Bit of a drop from Varane eh.

The Chels 2,502 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Spanish and Tunisian press seem pretty certain he's going to Valencia. We'll have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I dont say we are absolutely brilliant in it, but its clear we are trying to play more in that way. In attacks, we keep passing and passing, almost until there is someone 1on1 with GK.Then you see our defenders who all they can do is hoof the ball somewhere in the sides of the pitch to fuck up every possesion we could contain.For a change, it would be nice to have a CB who can control the ball and not start panic when opponent gets close to him. Abdennour age also seems to be spot on in corelation with rest of our current CBs. He can play with Terry because he is fast enough, he can play with Zouma because he is enough mature and experienced and he can play with Cahill because he can lead the defense.

Id not say no to him. Cant be worse than current option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clockwork 1,794 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 If Chelsea wants him I am sure we can make him turn down Valencia. We have been successful in these last minute operations.This would be a fantastic signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
