I'm sorry but i disagree with you. At that time, i think it was around 2011, Chelsea cried their eyes out for an creative winger, imo.

Teaming up with Mata would have worked some wonders, imo, but maybe we wouldn't have bought Eden Hazard.

I choose Eden Hazard all day long.

I don't get the point, why he didn't fit into Chelsea at that time?

Back in the day, Pastore was ~22 years old and looking for the next step as well as others had done it before him.

The physical aspect can't be the point, because of guys like David Silva.

What was so different between him and Mata?

Mata fitted in nicely, i think.

I didn't watch most of the PSG matches, but from what i have seen and heard, Pastore has been worth the money.

Cantona:

PSG fan:

They fuckin' love and admire him. Not because of his looks, i must say. :ph34r:

What? Pastore a creative winger? Are you confusing him with someone else? He was a classic #10 at the time playing for Palermo.

The reason why I said he wasn't right for Chelsea is because he was the stereotypical flair player. Entire game revolved around his skill on the ball. No legs, no work rate, no defensive nous at all, poor movement. The type of player who starts playing when the ball is in his feet. More interested with entertainment than efficiency. Not a Chelsea player at all, didn't even suit the system. Not a player for any top side, rather a big fish in a small pond type of player.

It's nice Cantona's fan of Pastore and I knew about it. It's understandable as he possesses great flair and fantasy. That languid style with his long legs is eye-catching and he's a very skillful player. Even in an average game he can produce one or two great pieces of skill. But it took Pastore three seasons (!) to finally perform for PSG. That's a very, very long time. Before that he was considered a flop for his fee and the expectations surrounding his arrival, reduced to squad player status. Last season he finally worked on his weaknesses and improved his game off the ball. Not as fixated with attempting the spectacular either. But he wasn't fully won a place in the starting XI yet. Matuidi and Verratti are still preferred in the most important games. He's still nowhere near Silva, who is far more complete and quicker and more clever in his plays.

I'm an Argentina fan and Pastore never impressed for them either. Most of the time he wouldn't even make the team. Last summer's Copa was the first time he truly showcased his talent.

EDIT: Just realised this is the Teixeira thread. Apologies for the off topic.

Lucescu (Shakhtar): "Alex Teixeira is now worth more than €40m (£28.9m). At the end of the season his value is €50m (£36.1m)." [Express]

Get him ASAP.

loan them out till they get a work permit :)

Haha by the time they get a work permit, they will become average players who have failed to reach their potential

Better off letting other clubs do the hard work and then sign quality players like Willian.
