killer1257 3,282 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Why even go for average strikers when we have Michy and Giroud who are average as well? Why not keep them and go for a World class winger instead. It will not make a difference if we replace a average striker like michy with another average strikerGesendet von meinem SM-G920F mit Tapatalk Atomiswave and DDA 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit unfair. He is a lot better than both Michy and Giroud imo. Typical number 9, has the physique and reasonably good technical attributes. Watched him a lot in person when he was at Celtic, the move to Lyon has given him more time to play at a better standard and he hasnt disappointed. People got excited about Michy who had scored 17 goals in the season before we signed him but his general play was severely lacking. I can see why people are perhaps questioning another CF from Ligue 1 but Dembele is much better. Hes got 10 goals in 18 so he is more than on course to make 20 goals this season. Hes only 23 as well and has got 100 careeer goals at club level. Not bad. Celtic will get a 10% sell on fee so Lyon will want more money and I cant see them affording Girouds wages or be that interested in him.

DDA 9,941 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 The thing that hurts mostly... is that we know we ain't buying 1 World Class player, let alone the 6 or 7 we need. It's depressing. Atomiswave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's depressing. I think in recent weeks we've felt the loss of Hazard. Now teams are beginning to work out that they can defend deep centrally against us and force us wide we either need quality width (full backs) or a top drawer creative spark and unfortunately we lack both at present. Having said that since Roman brought the club we haven't had the greatest of luck with buying ready made, world class stars. We've had much more success buying players either on the cusp who need to be taken to that next level or younger players that have developed into world class players. With the profile of the players we have here and a pool of them likely to start really peaking over the next 2-3 years time, do we go down that route again and buy those types of players or do we go for broke and get 2 or 3 world class players added to what we already have. Hate to reference back to Liverpool so regularly because I cannot stand them but their recruitment in the last 3-4 years hasn't involved buying world class players. They've brought the right players who have become world class when playing for them. I just hope there is a real plan in place for January and the summer that we can bring in 3 or 4 players that are designed to suit around what Lampard is trying to build. This doesn't necessarily mean the best player available, it means the best fit for the club and manager. DDA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vesper 30,185 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Chelsea snub https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1223016/Transfer-News-LIVE-Man-Utd-January-Liverpool-Chelsea-Arsenal-Premier-League-Latest-Updates Chelsea boss Frank Lampard has seemingly crushed any hopes Wilfried Zaha had of making the step up to Champions League level with the Blues. When asked about a potential deal for the Crystal Palace winger, Lampard said: "I wouldn’t talk about Zaha and the idea of that deal is something I have never even considered."

Jase 43,479 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Have not seen him play but he can play as a winger or attacking midfielder apparently. And he's only 21 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kid looks like an amazing talent but it's difficult to judge how good he'd be making the step up to a better league. He looks far too good to be in Croatia, though.
