As I said in summer:
Mata-Oscar-Hazard
Torres
Where does Hulk start? For £50million as well? Thankfully obsession is over
I know he's not technically a striker but surely you'd start him over Torres.
With regards the OP - are you implying that Gazprom paid Chelsea to not go for Hulk?
Torres > Hulk as a CF, amd more proven
*better and more proven, as a CF.
Torres has no excuse now though. If he doesn't manage a minimum of 20 goals across all competitions people simply have to accept he isn't good enough. I had always defended him due to lack of creativity in the team in the past but this team is made for him.
Bale's
I'd take Torres every day over Hulk. His work rate as well as positioning is criminally underrated.

Exactly. Pretty dodgy stuff.
bubs....
whilst not seen a gr8 deal of hulk...
torres does have gr8 movement....
Very dodgy if there's any truth to it. Still, must've taken a truckload of cash to convince the player he wanted to go to Russia. He's hardly been well received either.
I agree Hulk's not a striker but he is awesome going forwards.. did you buy Oscar instead or was that already done?
Hey Junction
Hulk is overrated, if people thought Torres was bad at £50m, Hulk would be even worse.
Swear you were all for him 2 months ago Bubbles
For me Hulk was never a possibility once Moses came in and Sturridge didn't stay.
It's good that for once Chelsea are saying no, rather than clubs trying to bleed more money from us.

That was Superb. My preference was always to go for Cavani as my article history will show. Once I found out Cavani was a possibility I had no interest in Hulk and went on record saying we should not pay more than £30m for him if it happens.
Why overrated? I've never heard him labelled world class.. even by world class numpties on here. Watching him play wide forward for Porto and Brazil I'd say he's on a par with Bale. Not the finished article and needs to do it consistently, but on his day unplayable.
No payer is really worth £50m apart from the shirt sellers.. and you can't deny he's a bigger brand than Torres.

You'd be surprised Same with Bale as well..

Bale isn't world class but he's comfortably better than any other British player at the moment.
