Alex Teixeira.

Can't tell much from the youtube clips, since that league isn't very good, but he doesn't really look like anything that would make a big impact for us, just another player similar to what we already have.

Looking pretty similer to what people said about douglas costa, before you know, he went to bayarn and showed most assumptions about him amounted to very little. 

 

True, but let's be honest, if we'd signed Douglas Costa, he would have been sh*te.

Not seen much of him tbh. Would prefer greizmann in the summer if it was a choice between the 2, only on the basis greizmann has been sensational in a top league.

 

Why are you comparing an AM to a striker?

 

Greizman has excelled playing as a secondary striker in a 4-4-2 formation, not really relevant to Chelsea.

Actually Griezmann and Teixeira are similar. Can both play anywhere in the advanced positions. Though Griezmann is/was naturally a LW while Teixeira is an AM.

He has but he looks excellent anywhere he's played. He started off on the left and that's where he broke through but since going central, he has been phenomenal.

He has played on the right a few times also, and cutting in onto that left foot, he was very dangerous. I believe he will end up at Real Madrid in a few years.

Atletico wouldn't sell him to Real to save themselves from relegation.

Greizmann plays in the same area as texeira. Both play in the space off the striker. I think it's a fair comparison, especially as I can't see both of them in the same 11, with hazard and willian.

YouTube is deceiving as we have no idea how he plays full 90mins. Is he defending, is he smart, is he a captain material? No idea.

 

that's what the scouts are for. us joe bloggs know nothing about these players unless we watch them every week.

He must have something about him if he can score that many goals from attacking midfield. It may be a poor league but if he can get half the amount of goals for us then i think he would be a success. Going on Youtube videos to judge players is stupid really, the only way you can judge a player is by watching him.

 

I don't know much about him because i have never seen him play, i guess we'll just have to see how it goes if we do sign him.

Well I don't think Pedro is working too well for us so someone better would be nice. On the other hand maybe Pedro is still settling in. Lots of players have arrived and taken most of a season to find their feet including drogba, Ramires, ivanovic.
