Chelsea? 892 Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Need more goals from him 😎😎😎 yea I said it. If we were able to get someone of the attacking quality of Pedro in Moses' spot and then get a creative attacking guy as our RF then we might just be champions league contenders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volfan89 97 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 lol @ the folks who have been saying he's not enough for our midfield. I couldn't care less if if his passing can be woeful at times if he puts in shifts like today. Last Sicarius and LondonsFinest 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's too big 625 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I think his passing has been good when I seen him play. His long passes are pretty damn good too. Against a team that presses well he will be limited in passing, but against everyone else he is very good. Matic is the liability in Midfield at the moment and I hope this changes because Kante is doing the work of two guys at the moment. Maybe partner Kante with Chalobah/Ake or Fabregas. the wes, OhForAGreavsie and MefiX19 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2 man midfield keeps getting over-run. Fabregas needs to started against arsenal . Remember the fabregas and Costa combo goal two seasons ago against arsenal at the Bridge  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's too big 625 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Does nobody think Ake or Chalobah could do the job? Think those two need a chance to shine at some point, and they've both proven to be capable and solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoyBlue96 990 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 This guy is unreal and I am so happy we got him and of course grateful to him for putting faith in our club. We got rejected by many players in the summer with reports saying "because Chelsea don't play Champions League and uncertainty because we have to see if their new manager can repair all the damage done by Mourinho"  Love him. Such an important player for us. Second Premier League title in 2 years...? Epic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think of Vincent Koziello for Nice? He in my opinion has the potential to be on the level of Verratti and Nainggolan and will be cheaper than both. Players with extreme potential and good enough to play for the first team immediately. This is an article from a year or so ago about him, the part i'm copying here is why i'm excited about him and would be delighted if we got him. https://www.vavel.com/en/football/582560-vincent-koziello-who-he-is-and-why-you-must-watch-out-for-him-in-2016.html Quote Thanks to his energetic demeanour, which is in stark comparison to the more minimalist work rate of OGC Nice poster boy Hatem Ben-Arfa, his movement off the ball is constant, and this results in him seeing plenty of it. Furthermore, when given the opportunity he likes to burst forward with the ball, similar to Ben-Arfa. While his dribbling isn't flashy, he glides forward positively when given the space, and has been successful in over 66% of the occasion he has taken on an opposition player. His work rate is crucial in defending as well as attack, and thanks to Koziello's awareness and intelligence he is able to use it to his advantage. Constantly throughout games Koziello is looking for spaces in the midfield or in front of the defence to fill in. This is particularly crucial in instances when midfield partner Seri has broken forward leaving a space in midfield alongside Mendy. Such good positional awareness has led to him averaging one interception and just under three tackles every game, This defensive impact is surprising given both his attacking abilities and physical stature. Players who tend to fill the advanced playmaker role, and are of similar stature to Koziello, on the whole let their defensive work fall to the wayside, but instead Koziello uses it as another string to his bow. He is tenacious as a consequence of the aforementioned energy which engulfs him, and in addition to his positional awareness this gives him a plethora of opportunities to dispossess opponents. Furthermore, this bolsters his attacking impact, as he wins the ball in both the opposition half as a result of pressing high, as well as in his own half and this allows him to start attacks. So while Koziello may not be the provider in terms of goals, he doesn't look to unpick defences with speculative splitting through balls too often, and prefers to be ready to foil a potential counter attack, rather than bursting into the overcrowded box as his team attacks, he is instead the enabler. His energy allows him to dispossess opponents and in conjunction with his precise passing, he gives his team a platform to mount menacing attacks from.  The Skipper and Fernando 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last Sicarius 610 Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 In last minutes of second hal he was impassable.  Take down so many action  I was so impressed. But if he can do more successful passes he would be perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
