I've heard a lot of talk about fans saying we should sign Luka Modric n order to play in the pivot alongside someone like Ramires and if we don't get him, we should go for one of Javi Martinez, Joao Moutinho or M'villa. Last summer when we were in for Modric and we never got him, we bought Oriol Romeu who I believe had a good season, he was quality under AVB but then unfortunately he got injured and didn't get a fair chance under RDM. We've got De Bruyne as well who can play in the pivot if needed to so why go out and spend £30-£40m on someone like Luka Modric when we've got players already that can play in the pivot?.
I would have Ramires, Mikel/Romeu in the pivot with Hulk (if signed), Mata and Hazard ahead of them. That'd be amazing!.
Also we were linked with Fellaini this morning which is silly if we sign him, his a great player but however, I'd rather have Mceachran given a chance instead.
-Would you sign someone to play in the pivot?, if so why and who?.
Who should we play in the pivot?

Have a gulf of options :
Modric, Ramires, Romeu, Mikel, Lampard
All fantastically different. All are advantageous in different scenarios.

Fellaini I don't understand the attraction to him.

I want fellaini because he is a decent player, can cover CDM, CM or play of the striker and adds a bit of physicality. I don't want our team turning into a bunch of pansies.

Also I just want to add who do you reckon will be our manager?.

Could be any one of Bielsa,Deschamps,Blanc(all out of contract at the end of June) but I honestly don't think It will be Di Matteo or he would have appointed weeks ago.
Having said that If Bielsa is appointed Chelsea manager, I don't think the senior players will like his training methods
Really frustrating not knowing which managers are on the shortlist or are being considered

If Roman wants us to play attractive football then Bielsa would make alot of sense
