bring in falcao, keep Torres. keep ba till the summer and then bring lukaku. a forward line of falcao Torres eto and lukaku is great. you can never have enough good strikers.

We only play with 1 striker.
Lukaku would be a RW here

Chelsea spent quite a lot in summer once again. Can you afford to spend another 50-60m under new FFP regs?

Yes.
FTW

Cant see Lukaku coming back now...he's been frozen out twice

I hate to burst your bubble but this is just paper talk
Stratford ended is right

We won't be able to spend 52 m plus rediculous wages because of ffp

Isn't he like 30 as well?

Pointless signing he will be a flop because our system and the way we play does not suit a player like falcao.

Lukaku is the only player who could consistently play well in our system

Why would Monaco sell the player they bought for £50m half a season later?

Cause he's not 27 ?

Only in the mind of a local snitch trying to make some media money

I actually think that Jose is looking at Jackson Martinez rather than Falcao.

Both strikers play for Colombia so I have a feeling that the Falcao story might be a bit of a cover with Jackson Martinez as the real target.

When you look at Martinez's goal-scoring record for Porto it´s not hard to understand why that might be the case.

Porto love Roman

Not as much as Jorge Jesus loves us

Jesus loves <` )))><

Cavani would have fitted the bill perfectly in this Chelsea.

Lukaku still has some improvements to be made.

Falcao is special though, can create lots of moments of magic out of nowhere.

I think a quality CM is much needed atm more than anything else.

can create lots of moments of magic out of nowhere.

All those 10's

Exactly tcp

The problem isn't that our number 10's aren't creating, it's more that as a team we seem to have forgotten how to play with a conventional striker.

Drogba was such a good striker that the team didn't have to play around him as he pretty much did it all himself.

Also because our central midfield is so weak at the moment whoever plays in the three is having to work extra hard to cover the shortcomings of our central midfield.

In my opinion strengthening central midfield must be a top priority. All the problems and weaknesses in this team stem form our central midfield.

Agreed.

This is just another made up newspaper story all because Jose went to see Belgium play Columbia, plus we don't need Falcao until we sign some quality CMs..........without those Falcao won't make the difference needed

So come on then lads,if the majority of the fans know what's wanted,why the Flick don't the gods in there towers,! ! Do they really give a toss what the fans want ?

disagree...it stems from a lack of goals from our strikers...we've got plenty of quality behind them...

"disagree...it stems from a lack of goals from our strikers...we've got plenty of quality behind them..."


Last season this was the case, chance after chance created for them but not efficient infront of goal. Waste.

This season very little chances created for them to score thus far.
No Juan, no direct creativity.
Deep midfielders obviously a longstanding issue as well, which has yet to be rectified.

Remains to be seen what sort of role Marco would have played this season had he been fit but I suspect he still would have been behind Frank in the pecking order;

Don't subscribe to the notion that Juan has suddenly become worse, needs to starting every single PL/CL match without fail.
