LAM09 7,069 Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Never had a chance. Was obvious Barca and Real would go for him. Whos gonna turn them down for us? Realisitically?People kept saying (including his father) that playing time was key. He wasn't starting ahead of Suarez and I don't see him starting ahead of Benzema. Also, a deal to sign Rodrygo is all but a done and Diaz was brought back to the club last summer. Weird decision if that really was the deciding factor, as he'll effectively be vying with 3 other strikers at Real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will get plenty time, Real are wanting to offload Mariano and Benzema needs real competition, has done since they sold off Higuain to Napoli years ago. Diaz and Rodrygo are wingers.

Atomiswave 6,119 Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 RM will be doing their rebuild swiftly.....they wont hang around for eons and hassle, they identify and go for the kill, as it should be. Barca will do the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diaz and Rodrygo are wingers.I was talking about Mariano. Rodrygo, Vinicius, Hazard & Asensio vying to play in their preferred position? The club don't have a natural plan during these transfer sprees. RM will be doing their rebuild swiftly.....they wont hang around for eons and hassle, they identify and go for the kill, as it should be. Barca will do the same. It helps when there is only one other club to compete in the market domestically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club don't have a natural plan during these transfer sprees. Those 4 are wingers though. Jovic is a 9. Benzema is 30 odd, he needs a longterm replacement. Real wont care because they need to improve and in typical fashion they throw money at 5-10 players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players motives are all over the place. I think youll be surprised how often he will play. He offers a slightly more physical approach than Benzema. Both are very rounded but Benzema for all his positives struggles with consistency. Suarez is still very capable of magic on his day and probably be first choice at Barca undoubtedly where as Jovic has more chance to get in ahead of Benzema 110%. Be harder to displace Suarez than Benzema. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Styl1994 188 Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Tbh I am at the stage where next season is a write off the club is in a right mess and we should use the next season to restructure the club but that won’t happen because logic doesn’t apply to the people behind the scenes of Chelsea football club. I honestly don’t know what to say anymore. Atomiswave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diaz is pure shit, massive flop since they brought him back, and Rodrygo will play winger. Jovic made a brilliant decision. Atomiswave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah those 2 will always have a big pull, but they still do things swiftly. Having proper footy people at the helm helps a lot, we lack it. 6 hours ago, 1905didierblue said: So I am guessing hazard would be a RM player days/hours after EL final If not already done for.

They made smart choice. Jovic is allround, modern striker with massive potential. Icardi is flat track bully. Fantastic finisher, but does fuck all in buildup and his wife issues...just not worth it. I know we cant do shit in competition with Real to sign Jovic, but we need to get a goddamn top striker. Cavani, Icardi,...Chelsea would love to sign them but either will flop, you just know it. If we cant get top striker like Jovic, then we need a promising one like Lautaro, Richarlison etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd still like the club go after Jovic's current strike partner, Haller.We need to stop overspending on names and go for someone with a decent track record thus far. He'll probably be the cheapest option amongst the names mentioned too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
