Premier League - Chelsea vs Manchester City

We're signing Giannelli Imbula for £50 million, remember?

Oh yes, problem solved. Neither are passers and while both have promise, neither are what we need.

Sign an experienced player ffs. Lampard shouldn't be our only passing option.

Aye, though it does make our current situation all the more commendable. 2 points off top in second having played 4 tough games (3 away) with just 2 goals from strikers nearly a fourth of the way into the season and with 35-year-old Lamps being our best option in the middle...


Just imagine after these deficiencies are addressed.

Exactly. We are good candidates for the title right now, I imagine we'd be hot favourites for it if we could sign a top CM.

If we signed a top CM and a CF, We'd win it without a doubt.

Also, we were linked to Matuidi but he isn't the type of CM we need so I'll be disappointed if we pursue him.

Evidently you were right Kicky. Shiny-headed mong was letting them get away with fecking murder

He was ok in the end. I don't really judge the ref's performance as they all make mistakes.

Its the Illuminati! those guys!

BTW the only midfielders I would want in Jan is either De Rossi or Schweini... not gonna happen so no dont want transfers.

Can't get 2 of the best in the biz, so stick with the dross we have. K.

Well according to the club history we for awesome signings like Ba, Moses and etc... not really working out.

A few bad signings, so we should never sign anyone we need again. Again, k...

We need improvement in there, it's the only part of the field we are lacking so badly. Signing anyone would be fantastic, hell, I'd even take Meireles back at this point.

The fact that we needed a sub in CM last night, Jose would have looked to his bench and only saw Mikel, that's just not good enough, While Mikel is fine, subbing Lampard off for Mikel when you want to win the game is like subbing a defender on.

Had we had someone like Cabaye, Pirlo or De Rossi on the bench, we'd have felt 10x better about getting the win.

Hell, I was yelling at the TV to sub DL4 on instead of Mikel because he is more attacking.

Main reason number 2 why we need a passing CM: When Lampard went off, we had no free kick taker and we got some decent free kicks, a good free kick taker could have got us a goal much sooner.

I'm saying that we are not making quality signings in the winter window.

Thats not a reason to stop. Also, we bought KDB, Luiz and Ivanovic in winter windows so not all our winter transfers are bad.

Ba and Torres haven't been the best but we still need a CM and the winter window is a good enough time to get one.

Yeah but there aren't any good choices. We might end up getting someone average. I'd rather not see that.

Cabaye isn't average and he almost wanted to leave Newcastle for Arsenal before they got Ozil so I am sure he'd want to join us if we came along.

That said, most of the other options are hard to get, but we may as well try get them.

Also, we do need depth there. What we currently have is not enough for the season.

Hmmm.. lets see how it goes.

I can't find a decent video of him but watch him this weekend and you'll see.

If not, we could go for Hernanes, one of those two are possible.

Just found out, those mysterious men's symbol had the hashtag #Winnertakesearth shown with it.

Perhaps it's an adidas add as Chelsea and Bayern are both sponsored by them and Juve just signed a deal to get adidas sponsorship in 2015. The World Cup is also sponsored by Adidas, making it a world cup add.
