Imo if Sturridge could have stayed healthy he would be one of the best strikers in the game. I have always been a fan of his too but we knew how injury prone he was when we sold him. Still let him go too cheaply Clockwork 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ability is one thing reading the game and knowing when to release or to attack space is quite another. Sturridge has tunnel vision... Just my opinion though.

Defensive Contribution: Tackles per game: Lukaku 0,2 || Costa 0,5 || Belotti 0.9 Interceptions per game: Lukaku 0,0 || Costa 0,2 || Belotti 0,3 Passing Pass succsess %: Lukaku 65,5% || Costa 75,2% || Belotti 75,1% Key Passes per game: Lukaku 1,3 || Costa 1,2 || Belotti 1,6 I have watched Belotti several times for Italy and he has been very good, his linkup play is alot better with better teammates around him. He is more then a handful for defenders, they foul him more then Hazard. kellzfresh, OhForAGreavsie and xPetrCechx 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmin 2,484 Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Well, it's no surprise that people on Twitter are now linking Chelsea with Belotti and Morata. Aubameyang's up next. The most obvious rumours are winding up, as always. Wait till the last few days of the window so they can write about the "shock move made by Chelsea for Edinson Cavani".

Would be so Chelsea to buy an ageing past it player who might have something left but probably hasn't to be back up striker. Even if we sign them a strikeforce of Belotti/Morata/Lukaku + Bats + Llorente does not really strike fear into anyone on the highest level. ulsterchelsea 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My personal preference is to play a 3-5-2 and field it like this: Belotti Hazard Keita Bakayoko Kante Sandro Moses Rudiger Luiz Christensen I think it could really work. All players get to play to their strengths. You would have a strong bench with Pedro, Fabregas, Azpilicueta (who could play in the starting eleven depending on preference) and others. I realize it is a fantasy though, but having a hard worker and great finisher like Belotti supported by Keita, Hazard and Sandro would be a dream come true.
