Random Rumours

Hmm, I just cant see why we would sign Ronaldo. Hes not played for a few years now and is pretty fat. But he would fit in with the other brazilians we have I suppose.

He's big-boned and you know it.

Rumors swirling about a move to bring Ronaldo to Chelsea, probably going to be finalized in the next few hours.

 

If that comes true you'll be hailed as a genius. Well, on Twitter anyway.

Looks like arsenal might be getting Draxler from various reports in tomorrow's papers. Ozil Draxler cazorla Ramsey is pretty impressive.

Ironic that we seem to be the only team concerned about ffp

There's a rumour knocking about that arsenal and Man U are keen on bayerns mandzukic, how funny would that be if we snaffled him up just as one of them were about to clinch the deal!!! We pissed of spurs and Liverpool this way, why stop there.

Well that's not true at all, only Man City and us have to be worried about FFP, we're struggling to break even. Man United and Arsenal are posting over £70M a year profits under FFP, therefore they have loads more money to spend than us! Thats why we have to sell to buy and they can just buy whoever they want

I think we should stop hoarding second rate strikers.

 

For me our striker situation is similar to Man Utds CM situation. We have enough depth and enough players who can 'do a job'. Id say all of Etoo, Torres and Lukaku would be a decent second choice. What we need is a clear cut top level striker.

I fear the Torres buy has set us back here significantly but we need to take the plunge and sort that position out once and for all.  Personally I'd get rid of everyone we currently have there in the summer and go with Lukaku + a top new signing.  If Eto'o wants to stay another year I'd be happy with that though (as a backup), but Torres and Ba have never worked out here and we need to move on.  If Mourinho could make that call with Mata I hope he can do it again here and finally sort this out.  Luckily we haven't had many problems scoring but we'd look a lot more formidable with an elite striker leading the line, something we haven't had since Drogba.  Aside from Costa who I'm not too keen on I can't see anyone available though.

Who is actually available though?

 

Falcao- Injured.

Cavani- Just moved

Lewandowski- Also just moved

Ibrahimovic- Too old

Rooney- New contract

Costa- Hasn't scored in 2014

 

Can't think of any more.

Plenty of games left for Costa to prove his worth

 

Giuseppe Rossi has been banging them in but also could be just a flash in the pan.

 

We wont have plenty to choose from, definitely.

Manduzic I've heard has fallen out of favour at Bayern so could be a good buy. Be better to have this discussion after the World Cup probably.

Mandzukic would be the perfect type of striker for Mou. He is hard working and ruthless, also Bayern wudnt force him to stay if he wanted to move

Cavani doesn't like playing second fiddle to Ibra and also expressed his disinterest in the french league. If he's available then we should break the bank to get him. I'd still be an advocate of getting Ibra either though, he's old, sure, but he'd be perfect for the transition until Lukaku is ready to be first choice week in week out. Mandzukic is good, but i'd rather someone with a bit more to their game. Costa doesnt convince me yet, one season of good goalscoring form isn't all that encouraging, look at how many strikers have been one season wonders.

Makes me wonder whether PSG might have been open to it if Mata sweetened the deal.  I'm pretty sure they were after him in the summer and they're reportedly interested in Hazard now (which hopefully has no chance of happening).  I just can't see them selling so soon after buying him unless Cavani really forces it.  

There has been rumours that Arsenal might buy Draxler and use him as a CF like RVP,anyone seen enough of Draxler to think he could do that?.If he could we should be looking at it as the strikers available to buy right now is very small.

I can't stand Mandzukic, did you see him in the Super Cup against us ? He was sh*t, and would go down with the slightest of touches.
