Ya accurate passer is another way. But dont you feel chelsea is a little bit thin upfront?
So you reckon its better for chelsea to buy a dm instead?
Dont you think the likes of hazard mata and oscar available would provide enough chances for torres already?

guys, philipine united football league and malaysia super league, which one has a higher standard/ranking?

falcao is not a backup type of player..he is the main man..i dont think he will accept if suddenly he will play wide..

it is a little bit thin upfront that is why we will sign a striker..but not necessary falcao..we prefer a striker that can play on the wings..so that he can produce backup for both position without directly compete with torres..

deep laying playmaker are different and rare..

I think chelsea will not let torres off cheap and i doint see that he will agree joining any lesser team and his form dont really appeal any top team now. Unless a swap deal with atletico with both latter heading opposite way. If this is done chelsea will be the one losing slightly in the worthiness part. I rate torres at maybe 15 million at most now? Might as well keep him?

It is not only about his price tag..keeping him not the problem..but the his wages quite big..if one to one swap deal..then we are the one who get the better part of the deal..so either torres or falcao..not both...

The thing is atletico will not agree with the swap deal unless there is a significant advantage with the deal. Yes thats my point, why would atletico make the swap unless they gain huge advantage on the deal. Torres isnt rated anywhere near falcao, torres wage higher. They would rather let chelsea invoke the buyout clause. How mch the clause? 40mill?

yap..that is why better to keep torres and buy someone younger..46mil..

Frontline is not thin at all.
we have tons of attacking fella can play as striker.
Currently every1 in front can score which we no longer rely on CF also. Most of our winger can become striker if needed.
our pivot however is very thin. A good DM with accurate passing abilities is very rare.
Perhaps is time to hire Ballack as DM coach.

Well, either way should not be a problem for chelsea, they already looked tip top. Only the front looked weak and thin with torres and sturridge. I wouldnt complain if falcao were to come. Lukaku coming back and matteo should try to retain him too.

Moses, hazard, and marin can be striker too.

Lol..if like that i nothing to say liao haha. Maybe matteo should not field torres in the first place. Hes not in form. Should just put hazard upfront and get to field moses too

We currently have Sturridge, but it seems like he's on his way.
We could get Schrulle? We tried once and couldnt get the deal done. Or Neymar, but getting him might cause some FFP issues

4 goals in 7 league games, i should not complaint much i guess for now

Its not just about his goal scoring. Ive said many time before that with current midfield chelsea has any stiker can score goals. If he were to be in another club chances of him doing so would be slimmer. As a whole picture chelsea forward is thin as in torres and sturridge only available. Torres not being prolific and sturridge not doing well in matteo system of a solo cf. yea not complain but falcao coming in wouldnt be something to complain about either as a whole picture.

is there any assurance falcao would bomb in the goal as usual?

sheva, crespo, mutu......

they said the same things too.

chill out and enjoy Torres atleast till another transfer window lol

Obviously theres no assurance
But for chelsea stature, after spending so much in midfield, getting falcao wouldnt be too bad. Actually any striker just to fill the void if anything were to happen to torres but seems like you guys are content with the current squad. My guess chelsea will get a cf this coming january because its a logical thing to do.

yeah not too bad in the financial book fo shoo
80 mils + 50 mils..??

as i said, i shudnt complaint too much. 4 goals in 7 games.
first in the league with 6 out of 7 so far...
there's absolutely no need for panic button.

& to answer u..i'm more concern on Cole, studge & Lampard...rather than this Falcao saga. it's not transfer windows yet eyh?

Those figures compared to the 46 million buyout clause of falcao kinda like a steal. Well if i were you i wouldnt worry as well because its all over the news that falcao would most likely end up in chelsea

Cole want to secure retirement fund thus he most likely would prefer a 3 year contract. 2 years might not even interest him unless theres significant raise to his wage. Left back should not be a problem many good ones out there. Studge? I deemed him a surplus to chelsea. Not sure about his quality but he dont seem to have anything to shout about compare to any of the current chelsea squad. All outshines him. Hes most likely another wright phillips or charton cole at best. Whats with lampard? He is still good and still deadly.

wud prefer CFC to stall any transfer deals for now. i know the attacking dept is very thin now. but 130 mils - 8 mils for meireles..doesnt looks good on the financial book IMO
but of course i dont mind any good players coming in, as usual
just like when ppl bashing oscar 'for demanding more money' right before olympic or overrated 30mils hazard before his deal was sealed.
end up? all praise & happy now

both cole / lamps are in final year. yes there are many good LB out there but wudnt it be better if CFC dont need to spend another LB? i believe bertrand will be the 1st choice material later but he's not finished product yet...few more good years for Cole wud be cool

i think debruyne is can be a striker also. werder bremen play him as striker
