If lukaku doesn't nail his blue colours to the mast in the next 2weeks I think we should be rid of him. Who to bring in though, sanchez is a class act but wouldn't suit us. Not many big and powerful cfs available,although cavani would be a favourite of mine

I dont think we need Sanchez hes not an out and out CF but I suppose you could point to Aguero as a like for like comparisson.

Sanchez might want to play upfront but with Costa, Sanchez would be forced wide so I dont think we need him.

Keeping Lukaku is paramount but its unlikely to happen IMO.

The boy has massive potential but the attitude isn't there,we need a warrior not a whinger. There'll be a surprise yet in this window. .I'd like that to be Pogba

Pogba would be epic but if Sanchez goes to Arsenal id imagine Juventus wont be in a rush to sell pogba or vidal

Looks like our Brazilian guys will be home soon too.

I actually can't remember when I last seen a more shambolic defence. Has that psg cheque cleared yet?

Can't believe we got €50 million for Luiz!! Exposed badly, without silva beside him he's as useful as an ashtray on a motorbike!!

Here's Willian to turn the game.

kev1.3s

Absolute screamer from Andre.

GavRedKing

Great finish

peteeeed

Wow

martingriff

PSG will be ringing Chelsea for the return of the 50 million claiming false advirtisement

GavRedKing

He should have about 5/6 goals schurrle but hes a great option from the bench

hullaballoo

Gav, are you still starting Willian ahead of Schurrle?

The Luiz deal has been finalised, yes?

GavRedKing

Thats a great read on cole.

Hes exceptional.

GavRedKing

Stat for ya, Chelsea players tonight scored more goals than Arsenal players all tournament.

:pac:

Means f**k all that, good to see Brazil go through.

Johner

Schurrle is great.

hullaballoo

Still say we should have held on to him.:mad:

Wish him the very best though, one of if not the best FB in the world over the past decade.

Maybe we could play him as a second striker, ya know kinda a replacement for Nando

BarcodeMuncher

Feck me, great game that. Lets hope PSG can't find the receipt for that faulty good we sold em

GavRedKing

Sell Lukaku, play Schurrle as our 2nd CF.

Torres to be a converted winger.

BarcodeMuncher

The lads on RTE overdoing a bit, its not like there isn't a plethora of talent coming from Spain alone, but Dunphy is right about Britain and ourselves, not exactly producing any future stars

Does anyone reckon Mikel could be turned into a cb?

Also, Brady finally gave schurrle a decent comment tonight, although I imagine he just couldn't get an insult through after such a team performance...

I'm sure if he tried hard enough he'd have taught of something, what did he say about ozil?

Watched the match on the BBC then turned over to see what Brady had to say, he glossed over Schurrle a bit but yes he actually paid him a compliment. I didn't hear him mention Ozil but then he has been the worst German player at the World Cup by a country mile I am more than a little surprised he starts his confidence just seems totally shot.

Ozil is the kind of player who can provide passing that everyone bar maybe Kroos, couldnt do.

He may not grab a game by the balls but his passing and vision is exceptional and even when hes not invovled hes still a huge threat.

I wouldnt say hes the worse player, for me that would be between Howedes or Mertesacker, even Lahm until he moved to RB.

The combo of Hummels and Boateng works better and Mertesacker just isnt up to it.

Goetze hasnt exactly been great either.

Neuer has been out of this world and is banker for the Golden Glove or whatever they call GK of the tournament.

Official website has under gone a change : http://www.chelseafc.com/

Pre season begins today : http://www.chelseafc.com/news/latest-news/2014/07/it-s-training-time-again.html

GavRedKing

Can we keep Lukaku on the back of this tweet :pac:

No disrespect to Arsenal who are also a big club but I dont understand why Ozil has left Real Madrid....I guess wil never know.

peteeeed

New website isn't great at all, there's about 10 different fonts on there to start with

*work hat off* Delighted for Schurrle last night, he's been a serious asset for Germany this WC, I hope we make the most of him next season. He's potentially the closest thing we have to a 'true' winger really, direct with pace and a serious shot on him. That finish off the bar would be being talked about a lot more if it was a deciding goal...

Imagine if we got Kroos. /Swoon

But ya, Schurrle has been a great option from the bench, I'm surprised he didnt play yesterday but Klose justified his inclusion, he got the 2nd goal and started the massacre.
