LAM09 7,070 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Need to be going after players that we can accommodate in our current system. He isn't one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILoveLamp 270 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Dont see where he fits and don't rate him that highly. He scores great goals but his general game doesn't impress me. Would rather avoid... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheIceMan 596 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 maybe back up for Hazard! Although some on twitter say that he is to replace Oscar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoyBlue96 990 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Uhm, people here forget thet Moses is originally a left winger right? Conte can easily mold a player into another position. If this is a Conte signing ,not a Buckenalo, I have full confidence in him and Conte for choosing him and for Hakan choosing Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,994 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Looks like the sort of creative little magician we were crying out for under the last regime but I don't see the need for his type now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Colored Sky 1,807 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 Same old same old. We need proper solution. Preferably left-footed. Fekir, Bernardo Silva, James. Dream signings like Griezmann or Dybała. It's not like we need much. Time to bring that marquee signing. Seriously, the hunt for a RW post-Kalou is embarrassing and I feel this guy is more of the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea Legend 11 4,062 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 I don't know exactly what some of you are talking about, we're not going to sign a player for the starting XI in the winter. If we do sign Calhanoglu its to strengthen the squad, he'd be Hazard's understudy with a chance to fit in on the right if he hits the ground running. The time for big signings for the XI is in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eidur the Spider 4,515 Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Hakan Calhanoglu was close to moving to #Chelsea in July, but Leverkusen were unwilling to budge from their £17m asking price. [Haberturk] Turkey boss Fatih Terim was even made aware of Calhanoglu’s move, with Antonio Conte keen to find an alternative to Oscar.

Unionjack 7,531 Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Looks like we are STILL CLOSE to striking a deal for him http://www.turkish-football.com/chelsea-transfer-news-blues-close-to-agreeing-move-for-bayer-leverkusens-hakan-calhanoglu/ Im wondering if Conte is planning to stick with 3-4-3 or looking as other formations? Might explain some of the players we are being linked to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
