He would score 20+ goals in our set up and this myth that he doesn't press is literally a myth. How is that a myth, there were stats last season that he is pressing even less than Lukaku Boycie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he comes here, I guarantee you would see him pressing alot more. Yea he wouldn't provide the same kind of energy Havertz does but I tell you something... he would bag more goals than both Lukaku and Havertz together. Besides, it's not like we have an abundance of options. Edited August 16, 2022 by DDA Milan and bigbluewillie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,958 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Ronaldo's game time would have to be managed too. He would thrive in games where we dominate the ball, send in crosses and have half chances in and around the box. And against the bigger teams, Havertz/false 9 with his pressing would be prefered. This over getting Auba on a multiple-year contract every single day of the week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! chelsea_4_eva 1,182 Posted August 16, 2022 Popular Post! Share Posted August 16, 2022 For me no matter how bad, I would not like CR7 here.. his ego is just too damn big.. the chances of it causing unnecessary friction with our players and manager is a risk i am not willing to take. Hell even Man United fans want him gone and he is their legend and they adore him. Stats, Boycie, guddy69 and 2 others 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milka 3,393 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Our team is better than their and Ronaldo could blossom at Chelsea. With so many chances we create Ronaldo will score 20 goals minimum. Maravel21 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jype 6,398 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Steinberg also says West Ham's bid for Emerson has been rejected. Chelsea holding out for £15M. Let's hope this doesn't come back to bite us in the arse if West Ham move on to another target. Doesn't seem like there's a big market for Emerson and £13M was already a solid offer IMO. bigbluewillie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,927 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 My guess is cash plus a player Rodgers can use will get it done. The rumors about our side not wanting that “world’s most expensive defender” tag on Fofana’s head I actually think is true. Having that pressure on you as a 21 year old (and especially in a position like CB where mistakes can have catastrophic consequences) could prove very detrimental. I just want to get him in ASAP. As impressive as RLC was against Spuds and as good as Reece looked at RCB, I don’t want to see that anymore. I want Reece bombing up and down the flank and a proper beast of a natural RCB behind him. Really hope we push this through before Leeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like him to join, but players and their agents are getting out of control.. Sign long term contract extension (with sweet salary increase of course) then they get surprised and feel "trapped" when their team asking big money from approachers to buy them out. If he didn't sign extension in March he could leave easier and cheaper.. So I can't feel sorry for him being 'increasingly unsettled' - as Sky reported.

Superblue 6,372 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 1 hour ago, Tomo said: It's genuinely incredible people are still falling for that logic after last season. I don't mind an option like that in the squad because the issue of goal scoring is something we do need to consider and try to address but Ronaldo creates the same problems as Lukaku last season - it's a big name and big ego whereby if things aren't going well for them, you'll know about it regardless of whether the team is playing well or not. I actually don't think you'd quite get that same issue with Aubameyang so long as he was within the squad and not being marginalised I think he'd be much more receptive to being utilised within the squad as a whole as opposed to just expecting to start and play 90 minutes all the time regardless. The issue with Aubameyang is paying a transfer fee and a lengthy contract for someone who is 33. If we could take him on a year loan I'd be content with that move to fill a gap for the short term, but that's not happening.
