Rumoured Gregory van der Wiel

Would prefer azpili, but you know wat

I doubt we can have another bosingwa can we!?!?

Ask any Ajax fan about this guy, the Bosingwa similarities are uncanny.

Jose Bosingwa was Gregory Van der Wiel before Gregory Van der Wiel was Gregory Van der Wiel. Much rather have Isla or Azpilicueta, in that order.

Bosingwa was one of the best RBs in the world when he was signed. One injury later and he became the beast he is today.

beast in the good or bad way?

What I meant by that was: Bosingwa was never the same after his injury.

[Kojo 4,676]

fuck all you bosingwa haters, you'll never have a monobrow like his.

we need to address the quota of British players in the squad, so for me it has to be kyle walker of the yids... and we can get him on the "cheap' seeing as some team in blue just kicked them out of the champions league.

It will never happen. Twattenham rejected a £40million bid for Modrić last year and they weren't in the Champions League then. Besides Walker much like Gareth Bale in 10/11 season has been grossly overrated.

Yea..I think at one stage, Redknapp said Bale was worth more than £100 million....lols.

We should attempt to lure Micah Richards - struggling to get a game at Man Citeh!

[cujo101 75]

I'd pass on GvdW and opt for Azpilicueta. Better defender by far but hey, I wouldn't buy Hulk for £38m...

...but I'd buy Adam Johnson & Fernando Llorente.

Totally agree.

Azpi > VdW anyday.

It would be an amazing signing. I really like Richards. He can get too carried away attacking though, but not as much as Bosingwa.

[Azpinator 2,325]

If the player would really like to play for Chelsea then we should support him.

I don't understand some of the posters here. First they say Ivanovic will be first choice RB next season and if we are after a RB, then it should be a back-up. Then they say they rather have Azpilicueta than VdW, but I think Azpi will want a staring role more than Van der Wiel, so this doesn't make much sense. I would release/sell Bosingwa and Ferreira and buy Van der Wiel, than make Hutch the 3rd choice RB, like Ferreira was this and last season. Ivanovič will probably play a fair share of the games in the CB position, because of the Terry "racist" scandal and injuries to Cahill.

I just think that VdW is more likely to accept the back-up RB role than Azpilicueta or Isla and he will only cost 8 million €, which is half the money than Bosingwa was bought for. There are very few good young RB around and I think that Gregory is a good choice (not a perfect choice), because he is an attacking full back who can cross, dribble and also shoot (his goal in UCL this year for example) unfortunately, he is not a good defender, but I would only use him against teams than play defensive and "park the bus" in Stamford Bridge.

For 8m,I wouldn't mind taking a risk.

[Leif 6,006]

Starts vs. Denmark.

I personally don't particularly want him here, but it looks like we may be getting him, so I hope he has a great game!

[didierforever 7,349]

the guy sucks. we just got rid of a bosingwa, y do we want another one? hutchinson seems much better. bertrand can do the job do(not much idea how good he would be on the right flank). anyways no point in wasting 10mil. please.
