Edinson Cavani

Tomorrow is Wednesday right. Weekly Cavani meeting day

That's an ignorant view. Just because he doesn't play for Chelsea he's not already one of, if not the best striker in the world? He's proven it in Serie A.

Off the top of my head....

Shevchenko

Casiraghi

Crespo

Mutu

Sheva-similar to Torres, on the way down when moved here

Casiraghi-Who is he, never even heard of him

Crespo-decent but he is like Balotelli, talented but just wasn't right for BPL and I think he was homesick

Mutu-Never reach his true potential then came that drug problem

Weah-didn't even know what football was when he was playing

napoli serie a yes. but he hasnt prove it with his national team has he?

and plz dont bring messi into this. because that just state the fact that messi dont have capability to adapt, as im afraid cavani does too

tbh, what i doubt isnt his skill, its the pricetag, just unbelievably high

[Beirut_Blues 306]

Well Ronaldo isn't exactly scoring every match for Portugal, Rooney, RVP and other top players has been so so for their national team so...

On the other hand, Benteke is banging them in for fun, Fred too for Brazil and Fred is shit as we know

Bottom line is that Cavani is class and will improve our side, is he worth 50 million who knows, but again its not our money its Roman's so why are we complaining. Most clubs could only ever dream of this happening.

Exactly, how I feel. Roman will decide as we have seen for 10 years. If he buys him, be it. Should I care much about it ? No, I should not. Will it effect FFP ? The management should know & not I or anyone here.

Will Cavani be worth it ? I believe so. After all, the club must solve the strikers soon. How much longer are we going to see Ferda playing hide & seek ? Even BA, has he done well ? I do not think so.

Is Chelsea capable to win CL, PL now ? No, I do not believe it. Therefore, I say, let Roman buy players, that are needed.

Probably already been posted. But just got back today so apologies.

Is there a better #9 in world football currently? Falcao is a better finisher but not better at anything else. Lewandowski is better at link up play but not finishing, heading or work rate. Van Persie doesn't have the work rate, pace or heading skills to compare with this sexy South American guy who resembles Dracula.

I genuinely think despite his awful National Team performances, if we sign him, we are signing the best striker in the world. Have we ever bought a player best in their position before? Or at least their role? Essien comes to mind but I think that's literally it. All our other signings were either prospects when we signed them (Hazard, Drogba, Lampard) or past it (Torres, Shevchenko(?) etc.)

I'm sure most of us would like Lukaku to have the biggest chance at succeeding as possible, but you can't not get excited over this surely.

Nah, this guy is a beast.

I don't have a good feeling about this move if it happens.

"Neither I nor the president want Cavani to leave because he's a very important player for us," the former Blues boss told Radio Marca.

"Of course, he was a clause which none of us can control. But the president and I want him to stay and continue to grow at Napoli.

"He has become famous with this club and he can achieve even more in a team and with fans who worship him.

"He knows what the club and the Napoli supporters have given him. He will not have problems competeing with us again and going for success with the club.

"Napoli don't need money. If he leaves, it will be for his clause, which is a very high amount. But our intention is that he stays with the team.

"Neither the president nor I are proposing that we have to sell Cavani, only to strengthen the team so that Cavani can be even more important.

"I am aware that there have been offers, but there is a clause and if they want the player, they will have to pay it."

This saga gets worse and worse..
