Where him go play again? And what does this do to RLC?balo wrote:Bigpokey24 wrote:Chelsea signs Ross Barkley. .15 milla
Was hoping Spurs would get him.
Like Vidal?analyzer wrote:Barkley - Hmmmm!!! More of a meh signing with potential to be more positive than negative.
On face value - 15M for a 24 yr old HG player that was once considered a huge talent is not a bad deal in today's market (granted he has 6 months left on his contract) At worst, he will bea decent squad player. In Conte's preferred 3-5-2, He can rotate with Fab or Bakayoko. In place of Baka, Ross will add more potency to the offense with his runs from midfield and better finishing. Can also play behind the Striker. A versatile player in CM and AM..
Just not sure in what shape he is given a 7 month lay off so not expecting much for rest of this season. As for RLC - nothing spoil. This allows RLC to stay on loan longer to get more PT and develop further.
Unfortunately, I don't think Ross is what CFC is missing in MF. CFC need a CM that can create, control passing tempo, and chip in goals. Take Ross & Drinkwater money - and one could pick up a quality CM.
If Ross stays injury-free for some time, I think you guys may have got an absolute steal at 15m. The boy is a very good player. This means you guys can afford to rest Hazard more. Perhaps, Willian may head out?analyzer wrote:Barkley - Hmmmm!!! More of a meh signing with potential to be more positive than negative.

He takes Lamps #8 Jersey. Not that surprised. Hope he can handle the weight of putting on that Jersey.
@Paj & Balo
Verrati will probably cost close to 100M. Vidal closer to 60M due to age lol
Making move is not the wahala. Making the right move is the real issue. Barkley is a low risk move. Only time will tell if it was the right move.balo wrote:analyzer wrote:Welcome to SB Ross and goodluck.

At least the club is not waiting till the end of January to get him signed.
Vidal I hear is available for 35M Eurosanalyzer wrote:Welcome to SB Ross and goodluck.

Chelsea's period for signing 30 year old players has long expired. On paper it looks like a great deal but it all depends on the player's work ethic and discipline especially during training to pick up the nuances of Conte's schemes. I see him better fitting in a 352 as a rotation / substitute option for fabregas where his fresh legs, drive and unpredictability creates potential to change games.paj wrote:Vidal I hear is available for 35M Eurosanalyzer wrote:Welcome to SB Ross and goodluck.

That said, the player still has a bit of a way to go due to injury lay off and still being a bit unpolished defensively and offensively. Only other question is what does this mean for RLC? It depends on what happens to fabregas next season.
Na so we see am. Just useless all over.. Willian stepping up but too selfish. Have to keep ball movingpaj wrote:this is an eyesore
Ross got Conte's season back on track. The Club can now send more players on loan. Including David Luiz and also sell Hazard.paj wrote:smh...looks like we are not buying anyone this window...
