Edinson Cavani

They got a sniff of what life is like at Chelsea that night at the bridge.......smelt like fresh bread didn't it boys?

Paris Saint-Germain's South American strike duo Edinson Cavani and Ezequiel Lavezzi put Chelsea on high alert last night after telling friends they BOTH want to move to Stamford Bridge in the summer.

Looks like both of them have had enough of being knocked out by Chelsea in the QFs after winning the first leg. If you can't beat them, try to join them.

Seriously speaking though, don't know what we'd need Lavezzi for. I rate him very highly having watched him at Napoli and now occasionally at PSG but surely we don't need another AM. I know Lavezzi can also play as a forward but usually that's been next to another striker (Cavani or Zlatan) and I'm having doubts whether Mourinho would use him that way. Maybe if we sold for example Oscar to them in exchange, we could play Willian behind the striker and have Lavezzi rotating with Hazard, Schürrle and Salah for the two places on the wings but other than that I don't see how we would have use for him.

We'd love Cavani alone pls. Lavezzi no thank you. We are adequate for AMs right now.

Lavezzi would have been a perfect signing for us a couple of years back, he's 29 in a few weeks and we already have better players in his position.

[Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067]

We have to go all out for this man, no two ways about it.

There's no hiding he's not happy there, AND the potential FFP Ban that they will be hit with only makes matters worse.

Give PSG 35m and we can almost write our name on the title for next year.

Our squad, lacks finished articles, a lot of potential is there with the likes of Oscar, Salah, and Willian. But we need a bonifide striker who can do it all as well as a bonifide CM, whoever that will be.

That summer, we got Hazard instead

[Special Juan 27,424]

This lad would offer two options. We can long if needed but he is a presence both for that and is quality with a ball at his feet.

It's him or costa for me.

[LDN Blue 7,903]

Lool, what nonsense. PSG paid over £60m for him and people really think we'll get him in the region of £35-40million? Not a bloody chance.

I love how it's always 'On collision course'

Bring Cavani.

[bushman 2,043]

Personally, I would rather see Cavani, if possible.

The difference between Cavani & Costa is only a few millions. Peanuts for Roman & he wants, prefers Cavani, instead.

[Imran_CFC 2]

Cavani is very much a Mourinho type striker, someone who has presence up top and will open up space for some of our other attacking options such as Hazard however I don't think he is worth 50M+

Costa is in great form this season and would be an upgrade from our present strikers however the truth is that this is his first actual significant season so is a bigger risk than Cavani

I personally would have preferred Falcao over these 2 but as that may be out of question Cavani at 40m would be a decent purchase

[LDN Blue 7,903]

But Cavani didn't score against us.. he must be rubbish

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Playing under Jose can make him the best striker in the world. That can't happen in Paris. Surely that's got to be a huge motive for him.

[Pizy 18,368]

Daily Mail saying his agent/brother are trying to push through a move to United.

RvP, Rooney, Welbeck, and Hernandez. Yep, just the place a striker who's fed up with playing second fiddle to another striker would want to go.

Even if one or two of them were sold they just gave Rooney 300k a week. If RvP leaves Rooney is their main striker.

[BloodIsBlue 291]

Mad respect for Roman if we sign Cavani. I'll get the name Abramovich on a shirt if Cavani is playing for Chelsea at the start of the season.

[LAB 1,030]

Not gonna happen. I think Cavani doesn't fancy our style. He wants to play for an aggressive/all out attack type of team to be the star. The star in our system is defence, at least for now.
