For people who doubt AVB

i genuinely believe that if AVB was successful in signing alvaro perreira then ivanovic would have been played at the right with perreira offering width on the left, he did try to sign the players that work fir his system, so far his signings are very good, mata, romeu, and mireles to an extent , imagine if Modric and perreira signings happened!

imagine if Modric and perreira signings happened!

--------------------------------

Roman would have been 65 million poorer.

take 11 from that for mireles though so he would be 54 m poorer but a team to fight for the title , which will eventually help balance the books

Perriera is average and would have cost 30million. No thank you..

If we did get Perreira and Modric then we would have been in the title race and looking to a semi finals in the UCL (depending on the tie)

Perriera would be just as much a hindersmce as Bos, works hard but cannot defend or cross

How can't Perriera defend though, done nothing wrong bar the o.g, where at least he was tracking a run.

Pereira should stay well away from Chelsea terrible player,City will rip him apart in the 2nd leg If they target that side. Crosses are dreadful,can't defend and his long range shooting is Malouda-esq in other words useless.
So glad we didn't pay that 30mil for him

So the great one AVB tried to sign a flop for 30mil??????? hmmmmmmm
