Poor-average build up play, lazy at times, greedy, known to disappear when it matters, occasionally useless when he's not scoring & he can't dribble.

I'm not particularly happy about it either.It's unnecessary IMO,especially for that kind of money.

How is it unnecessary? Do we have a reliable RW? If so then I guess I'm wrong.

Whats wrong with Ramires?

I think Hulk will do great for us,but tbh I'd rather us use some of the money to buy a midfielder.

Ramires is NOT a RW. He was a decent fill-in in that slot when we went defensive. You're kidding yourself if you think Ramires has the technical link-up qualities to form a formidable attack with Mata and Hazard. he's a CM and he should be played in the CM more.

If we play a 4-2-3-1 with Hulk,Mata and Hazard,then I think we're going to look very vulnerable.None of those players have any sort of a defensive game.

Ramires is not the headless chicken many people were calling him at the start of the season.The lad can play and he seems to be always improving.And you know he'll get up and down that right flank all day and help out the midfield when we don't have the ball,which I very much doubt Hulk will do.

It would be a different story if we had 2 midfielders who were great in the double pivot,but at the moment we don't.Now I wouldn't be suprised if Mikel upped his game this season and became a world class DM,or if Frank adapts perfectly to the position.

It probably wasn't necessary but it will still prove to be a fantastic signing IMO and with Torres struggling to score in last couple of seasons, Mata and Hazard quite frankly more creators than goalscorers maybe Abra decided ( or who ever is making the signings). You needed someone in the front line who will pretty much guaranteeing goals.

In anycase if you dont want him and willing to pay his wages we will take him off your hands.....

Bold statement there.

Hulk, Hazard and Marin have cost Chelsea just £2million more than Downing, Henderson and Carroll cost Liverpool
