Hazard & Hulk to Chelsea

[Adi]

Guys is a beast, but will he transition right away?  He's strong enough to cope with England's style of play.

I hope he does well... Chelsea might actually be able to attack now.  They got Mata and Hazard.  They just need to figure out how to play football now...

I expect him to have a lot of issues adapting first month or 2. But towards the end of the season (money time in CL and competition) he will be deadly.

They got Marko Marin too i think. I'm looking forward to watching this team next season

hazard can really make a difference in their attacking play imo, he is incredible (2 times best player of french league)

Oh yeah, Marko time!  He'll come off the bench every 2-3 games.  Could provide a nice spark though but I worry about his playing time.

Sky Sports understands that Chelsea are close to agreeing a deal for Porto star Hulk. 

[Adi]

Yup, let's get another stiff to replace Drogba. Torres on the bench again. They better sell him while he still has some value. If they're lucky, he'll score 5 goals at EURO since he has no competition. That should have someone overpaying.

Hulk is a beast. I love him :p

I read that few days ago.Shit, i wanted him to City

I don't like Hazard going to Chelsea... I mean it's not even clear who their manager will be next season. If a club signs a player that still needs to develop, the player needs a coach who has patience and believes in the players abilities. Also now they want more titles at Chelsea, so the new coach has to win games without any long term concerns.

Therefore it would have been much better for Hazard to go to Arsenal. They might not win titles there, but the chances to win a (big) title with Chelsea aren't much greater to be honest.

[Adi]

He would definitely be more effective at Arsenal or United... Chelsea is boring and uncreative.  He will be limited, but who knows?  Maybe a new manager shakes things up but it's hard to change the culture of a team.  We saw what happened when AVB tried to play football.

[Adi]

Chelsea are closing in on a deal to sign Porto striker Hulk after reportedly agreeing a £38 million transfer fee with the Portuguese club.

 

And someone says Dzeko is not worth 20 million?

Talk about overpriced players... 38 million for a player who hasn't even proven himself to be worldclass... hell, he hasn't even played in a top league.  Way to set these great standards.
