So Ginkel to start? Or wait for Rossi?

by Soul Fri Jul 12, 2013 11:26 am

I doubt Ginkel would start all the games based on what Mourinho has said so far. Signing De Rossi or keeping Mikel seems like the two options available

True. 90% chance Rossi is coming. If not Mikel will stay. I see Ginkel rotating with either of them.

Think it would be a great idea to bring him back as a coach next year once his Gala contract expires as it mentions in there (depending on whether he retires at that point or not, of course), but before then, as a player -- god no.

The Mirror are reporting that Rodgers is interested in Ryan Bertrand (given the source, take it with plenty of salt). Would Chelsea even consider letting him go on loan or permanently? If so (unlikely as it might be) what type of pricetag would the club put on him?

Somebody like him is hard to say. Based purely on his ability I don't think he's good enough to be a regular starter and I doubt he'll ever get to that level. That said he holds value in that he is happy to not play every game, will play anywhere down the left hand side and the fact that he is English helps out in PL/CL squad registration.

Based on that I'd doubt we would sell him, we have few English players as it is and selling off some depth would be pretty silly as I don't think we'd get much for him. If we did I'm not really sure what pricetag we'd put him up for as it's hard to value how much the different aspects like his nationality hold for the club.

by RedOranje Sun Jul 14, 2013 3:44 am

That's pretty much what I figured. Thought I'd check though anyway.

PVA is a much realistic choice to transfer tbh..

8 million... Iva's shoes maybe!

If dont end up signing a big name striker, what would you lot think about the club going after Cesc?

by Abramovich Tue Jul 16, 2013 1:01 pm

What and playing him as a false 9?

Can't see it happening, don't want it happening.

No danke.

by Shed Tue Jul 16, 2013 1:02 pm

Not needed at all. So definitely no.

by fatman123 Tue Jul 16, 2013 1:08 pm

I was thinking of using him in the pivot, but we're quite well covered in the area, he'd be an unessecary signing, although if someone came along and offered big money for Ramires for example it could become somewhat more viable, no question hes got the quality to play for us

Chelsea's Josh McEachran keen to talk to Jose Mourinho over his future:
http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11668/8826502

"I'm a Chelsea player and my dream as a kid was to play for Chelsea, so I want to play for them this season."

"But if the boss wants me to go out on loan I'll have to listen to him and go out. It's down to him."

"He said he would speak to me while we were in Asia so I'll wait for then."

"Hopefully it would be to a Premier League team, but I wouldn't mind going to a Championship team either."

by fatman123 Tue Jul 16, 2013 1:09 pm

Although in the unlikely circumstance that Mou was wanting our wingers to hold their width and play with a #10 Cesc could be that for us too, of course thats highly unlikely
