2012 and 2013 Champions of Europe [2014-2015]

Yeah and because the reason it was so easy at the end is because we bombed out of Europe early

There is too much money in the league for it to become an Italy or Scotland.

Griezmann wants Chelsea move

Atletico Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann is open to a move to Chelsea. The Spanish champions are keen to renegotiate his current deal but Griezmann wants to hear from the Blues before making a decision on his future.

Right! You guys don't need him as you've got Hazard, where would he play? I don't think he's a Mourinho kind of player nor would he fit your formation. This is again from goal.com they're making idiots of themselves. He'd also cost a fortune and is not a signing you guys need right now. Terry cannot go on forever, so like us at Utd, you need to strenghten the defence with Varane.

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

Definitely should not be a priority transfer.

 

[chygry]

Yup. As I would call it, it would be an overkill! A defender plus what do you think about Oscar's future at Chelsea? Too bad you guys sold De Bruyne to Wolfsburg. But I know that feeling very well. Losing Pogba on a free. At least he's doing well. :P

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

Selling De Bruyne was absolutely necessary, though maybe we could have got more money. You just cannot have Hazard and De Bruyne playing on the same team, they nullify each other (a big reason the Belgium national team underperforms), we had to back one of them and sell the other, we bet the farm on Hazard, and it seems to have paid off spectacularly.

I still hope that Oscar will become a world class talent and a big Chelsea star.

 

[chygry]

Oh I see. But I think one of the major reasons why Belgium underperforms is because their manager is shite plus they lack quality fullbacks. I mean when you have to play Vermaelen or Vertonghen as a left back and Toby Alderweireld as a right back, then nothing good can come out of this. :P

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

Well I watched the shitty game today, no surprise we sucked considering we started players who have no idea how to play together. I know he hasnt has the games lately, but Mikel just looks so so rusty compared to everyone else we play in midfield. Cant see Loftus-Cheek every making the grade (despite one or two good tackles) but maybe we can get some money for him. At least we didnt lose.

I don't agree with this. You can build a team around any 2 players. The other 9 can cover their gaps.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

50m + Gotze for Hazard.

 

[Filipower]

So 40M.

He has been a disappointment so far.

 

[Mandieta6]

How about Alaba and your eventual purchase of Reus for Cuadrado?

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Honestly, if you offered me Hazard for Alaba I don't know if I would even take it. Alaba is a perfect player IMO.

 

[Mandieta6]

I probably wouldn't either, mostly due to us not really needing Alaba and really needing Hazard.

 

[kp41]

For some reason I like Alaba in more attacking position ... position like Ribery ... he has good speed, dribbling, and can cut inside with a decent shot ... I think he'll evolve as a player with consistent position ... fuck Pep experiments ... probably Phil Jones is not the best example ... but he didn't evolve as much as he should have because he was used as RB/CB/DM, I think he improved as a CB alot this season ...

 

[Mandieta6]

Well, he was already the best LB when Pep came in so if he thinks he can put him in a more influential position it's probably a matter of time before he settles somewhere.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

He was in a consistent position this season. Bernat was the LB.
