January transfers

Featured Replies

A sub keeper and a 3rd striker. Get Cudicini back, and maybe someone like Jermain Lens.

for me i wouldn't waste money on a keeper in this day and age of FFP (surely next year is courtouis time to challenge?)

I might put a cheeky bid in fot Tiote in January, maybe a back up striker too.....

Are you Roman? If not will you let them play for Chelsea or will you keep them for your own amusement?

What are everyone's opinions on Neymar?

Neymar is extremely talented and one of the most talked of young footballers in the world. He is adored in his native Brazil. If we sign him his merchandise sales will go sky high and help pay off his tremendous price tag. He is a versatile footballer who can play as a back-up striker to Torres or on the wing. With players of the calibre of Mata, Hazard, Oscar, Neymar we would have one of the best young squads in the game and well on our way to another Champions League title.

I feel we wont buy big...Think Man City could outbid us for Falcao

Agreed, but I think they do it only after they have found a buyer for Dzeko.

If they buy him this year, its gonna take 60m pounds at least.

Falcao (probably) in, if so Sturridge leaves for Liverpool.

Possibly Neymar if PSG spark a bidding war, though I expect his agent will make him wait till summer for the best deal, especially as he has the same "super-agent" as Lucas Moura.

for me, buying a cm would be massive mistake considering how well de bruyne is playing

Is De Bruyne a cm?

i read his buyout clause is around 40-45 million

Yes, he started out as a promising winger but was moved to CM in the back half of last season and his performances lifted to a whole new level. Decent winger, potentially world class central midfielder.

It is not necessary to buy in January. Piazon and Feruz are able backups to Torres and Sturridge. As Brendan Rodgers is proving at Liverpool, the idea that young players are "unproven" is a poor catch 22 argument. If you don't give young players the opportunities how will they ever "prove" themselves?

He was never a winger, but was booted out there at Genk as that was the only vacant position. But isn't he a CAM and not a CM? Im almost sure I read his defensive play..err..well isn't there. But even still, we don't need a CM,Ramires Mikel is the future partnership, and we have back-up in romeu, with chalobah coming through. Still have lamps as well, until at least next summer.

Striker is needed, who that striker will end up, is down to the club. We'd all love to see Falcao come and score a bagload, as we would neymar but if torres is banging them in at the same rate of 1/2 do we needed a world class signing?

I would say definately check out if Falcao is available.

Torres is on the highway to recovery for sure but it's good to have an insurance policy.
