Cant understand why Roman does not want to sell Fernandont Scorres, its beyond my comprehension.

You actually believe the media knows what does Roman think? Don't be naive mate, they know fuck none.

I'm not sure we're signing Cavani anymore to be honest. Don't think the club is willing to pay 50m on another striker and rightly so. Crespo, Sheva, Torres, Mutu, Kezman etc we're cursed.

Bayern are on course to win the treble with Mandzukic as their first choice so a WC striker isn't really a necessity either.

Maybe Ba stops falling over when he's through on goal, Torres doesn't go through a 2-3 month drought after weeks of great form and Lukaku pans out...? We have so many goal scorers in the team, starting from our defense so perhaps we could cope offensively.

Still adamant the number one priority this season should be fixing our defence/midfield, particularly our back line as it's been abysmal since JT declined, Arsenal were better defensively ffs. Last time I had any confidence in our back 4 was probably in 2009, under Guus. And our midfield is nearly as bad as our as our defence. Far too easy to get in behind our 2 protectors and then to top it all off they end up getting outclassed and outplayed against any decent team we face.

I honestly cannot remember the last time we won the midfield battle against a top class team. We end up being forced to play on the counter and making "heroic" blocks/last man challenges in each big game.

No I don't, I was just commenting on the 'rumour'

Granted I wasn't thinking about it when i wrote it. So chill broseph.

I don't think we're even linked with him. It's probably all just lazy journalism:

• Chelsea need a striker.
• Chelsea will only buy someone for an obscene amount of money.
• Lewandowski is as good as gone.
• Same with Falcao.
• Rooney looks unlikely.
• Only one left that fits the bill is Cavani...
• Ergo, make a load of stories up.

Tancredi is as reliable as they get.

Perhaps, but Twitter is as reliable as a Nigerian bank account.

Stop being such a pessimist and let us enjoy being linked with cavani.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

"Enjoy being linked" with a player? The transfer market is the most painful part of being a Chelsea fan, especially on this forum.

Only if you blindly follow everything.

I completely agree with your post.

A World-class striker would be nice...but we don't need a WC striker provided that...we add a top-class midfielder and a top-class defender.

Just look at the impact Martinez has had at Bayern Munich...

If we're going to stick with the pivot...Mikel & Ramires isn't good enough. One or both of them will have to make way...if we wanna win the midfield battle against the top sides.
