Nothing in my opinion. Creative attacking midfielder, something we have loads of. Strootman is a way, way better option for the Lampard role.

The one from 2010 please.

There is a Khedira thread isn't it?

Khedira and KdB are two very different kind of players, I don't know why are we even discussing not getting them both. Khedira is a ball wining midfielder, the type of player we urgently need, and we should get him regardlessly of KdB staying/leaving. KdB is more of a mobile, forward going player.

What Khedira has to do with this thread?

I don't think we will get both Schurrle and Falcao to be honest. If we don't sell Torres that is. But we will see what Jose will come up with.

Klopp, Löw, but realistically at the moment, Mourinho.

Lol! That's really mature of you by the way, ignoring someone just because he's right and you running out of valid arguments. I can only guess that in real life, you're asocial mug who no one wants to talk to or hang out with as you have so awesome personality.

Well said.

Who is talking about league goals only? Without his goals in EL, we wouldn't win it. So there you go, that trophy you all are so proud of now it's won, Torres brought it. Nobody else.

If our new striker scores 20+ goals next season, you've got a pint of beer from me. Our game is not based on strikers scoring goals, see Ba's record here and while he was in Newcastle. Bottom line, I'm happy with Torres.

Yes, slack. That's what I meant Sorry english is not my first language. I still think he is class, and if he was given pre season and control over transfers, he would be successful.

Benitez didn't have preseason, he already took over when we we're behind United and also out of CL, so cut him some slice.

Shaw, Strootman, Capoue, Cavani.

Cavani in my opinion. Falcao is similar type of player to Torres, natural finisher who thrives when he is alone in the box with defender or two to beat and score. The way our forwards play is nothing like that. All three of Mata, Hazard and Oscar like to build up attack slowly, walk into opponents box, and score from there. The way Liverpool played under Benitez was deep defending and when the possesion in retained, fast ball to Torres who beats an opponent and scores. All of our three attacking midfielders like to take the ball with them all the way to the box, bringing all of their markers in the process, and when Lampard and/or Ramires arrive that's already 10-12 players in the box, nothing like Torres is used to while he was in Liverpool/Atletico. That's why he doesn't score, and that's why Falcao won't score. Cavani is perfect because he is more of a hard working, deep lying forward who likes to be involved in a build up. He could be Mourinho's next Diego Milito.

If we are talking more gifted technically, definitely yes, but that means sh*t when it comes to defending. When it comes to money, like I said, having rich owner doesn't mean a thing today in the age of FFP, you have to create your own money. Everyone will become Arsenal, everyone except Real and Barca and maybe Manchester United and Bayern, because they generate huge amounts of money through match day tickets and stuff, sponsorship deals etc... We're in top 10 for turnovers, so what? So is Liverpool. Turnover minus expenditure, that is what is important, and we're not in the top 10 on that list.

He's not. I would have Cahill in my squad rather than Luiz anytime. Ivanovic also. It's funny how some of you say (not you tho) "Don't sell him, we don't need the money." Yes we do. We are not anymore in the age where Roman can open his treasure chest and spend 100 mils every summer. Nor does he want to. If we sell him for 40 millions, we're in the profit. For that money, we can get cheaper, yet in a year or two better CB, and to spend the remainder of the money on the other players we need to buy.

Yeah me too lol. I'm not here for the tickets anyway.

15 years. I'm aware of that, yes, but the question is, is he really our best player? In my book, he's not even the best defender we have, so he can't possibly be our best player. If rumour about either Fellaini or Khedira is true, than we will have three deep lying, ball winning midfielders occupying one available position. Considering we can get either Fellaini or Khedira for less money than 35 mills Barca are offering, in my opinion we better spend the money on the type of player we are lacking at the moment - quality box to box. Lampard won't be playing forever, and only player we have in that position (kind of) is Ramires.

Cavani is the perfect choice. Knows how to score, but also likes to be involved in a build up play. Unfortunately, as the things stand, he is going either to PSG or City so I can see either Falcao or Lewandowski joining us.

For 35-40 million pounds he can go wherever he wants. Yes he is a good player and sometimes shows signs of brilliancy but more often his lapses in concentration cost us important points.

Imagine Mourinho, Alonso, and Falcao at the Chelsea next season. Title is our within two seasons.

Oh ok then.

Wow are you serious? You never heard of Strootman, Wanyama, Ogbonna? Do you even watch football other than Chelsea games?

Lol good one.
