Pizy 18,952 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Not just saying this because I’m sour he’s going to Arse (since I didn’t want him anyways) but just watching footage of both Mudryk and Madueke I’m easily more impressed with Madueke. Both look like top talents but I don’t see anything “special” about Mudryk, just a solid wide player. The concerning thing I keep seeing over and over though is that he’s injured so often just like Mr Glass Christian Pulisic. mkh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mhsc 1,098 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Puzzled by Madueke - doesn't look any better than CHO or the bunch of players we've already got that aren't good enough for the top end of the premier league.

Madueke is the kind of player you can take your chance with when you have a complete squad already. But no way we go for him when we are rebuilding and need impact immediately. This guy will spend more time with the doctors than in the training ground. Vesper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,952 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 I’ll wait to hear a price before I criticize, but yeah. Seems a strange buy at this moment in time. The two positions we are i the most dire need of right now (RB & midfield) we seem not to be prioritizing. Unless a true future superstar of a wide player was available in January like Leão and you had a chance at him I don’t know why we’re after anyone. Should just wait until we can move CP & Ziyech and see what our options are. Costa19 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 1 hour ago, milka said: They are both bang average I think. Thuram looks impressive with his size and pace but he is basically the Pogba of forwards, or maybe the French Arnautovic. He does not play the game at 100% intensity consistently, he also has technical deficiencies and is far from clinical. Only this season he is on a bit of a clinical streak for the first time in his career but I hope we do not intend for him to be our main striker target. His contract runs out in summer so he will be relatively cheap and if he can be got on reasonable wages, try it by all means. I doubt he will decide to come here tho, Barca and Bayern are also sniffing around. He will also be more successful in those leagues where he can cominate defenders physically unlike in PL. This Noni chap I have not really seen but from what I hear he is quite injury prone, wasteful and technically incomplete as well. In other words fits in perfectly.

Superblue 6,372 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 I'm not necessarily advocating us signing Madueke but what he certainly does do, and I think we as a club lack massively, is carry the ball with pace and intent. I probably appreciate Willian a lot more now then I did when he was here because since he and Hazard moved on, we lack a player capable of doing this and it regularly leaves our attack looking so cumbersome and predictable. Felix did it a couple of times yesterday and it makes a huge difference (1) to getting the ball up the pitch quickly, and (2) opening spaces up in teams to exploit.

Bumtrubbler 6 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Chelsea need a striker. forget about every other position. i don't know what havertz is but it's not a striker full stop. a 20 a season goalscorer is what we should break the bank for. all the other dead wood (pulisic ziyek cho etc) can be shipped out & replaced over the summer. I've never seen a less clinical Chelsea team in my puff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(hopefully doesn't matter) It is another Dutch farmer's league buy. 2. (bigger) He is injured a lot. never has played more that 1000 league minutes in a season Superblue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind him having gone an unconventional route for his development and I think he'll wind up back in the Premier League before long anyway - I'm aware that he's been highly thought of through the England age groups. But like you've highlighted above, given the injury issues he has had, I'd much prefer keeping an eye on scouting him in the second half of this season and see if he can stay fit for the rest of the season first. Having lost Gakpo, it'll be interesting to see whether he steps up and thrives having a more prominent role and responsibility to PSV.

There's no smoke without fire and I have heard too many allegations for me to think that there is reasons to be suspicious. It is a shame this goes on as there are other players I am sure have got away with this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
