Rafa says Chelsea will spend big!
by Topdawg Thu May 16, 2013 2:17 pm
Rafa Benitez has said that Chelsea will spend about £100M (fuck Fair play rules) on 3 or 4 players to challenge for the league.
I don't think they are too bad at the moment. Hazard and Oscar have improved as the season has gone on. Mata has been quality for most of the season. Ramires is decent and still young. Luiz looks like he'll be a good midfielder with an excellent range of passing. Romelu looked good last season as is still young. Lukaku has been fantastic for the Baggies this season. Cech is still making top drawer saves.
If they get 3 or 4 more world class players, they really will be a force to be reckoned with. Or should be at least. Imagine Falcao and Cavanni going there!

Like I've said before, this transfer window is absolutely crucial! Who ever sweeps up will dominate for the next few seasons. And it's pretty much a clean slate for all - everyone will spend, and the top 3 will have new managers.
This summer is going to be very interesting - and if we don't pull our fingers we're screwed. Chelsea get Cavanni and Falcao, United get Bale and Lewandowski and we end up bringing Rocky Santa Crutch back. Evidently we will be ****** ****** *****. I shall let you fill in the blanks.
It's imperative that we do some good business in this transfer window.

It kinda feels like when the Sheikh first came; we were splashing the cash big time on some big names (well, bigger than we already had).
I'm really excited with talk of Navas, Fernandinho, Isco, Cavanni and others being linked with us. There should be real pressure on every player to perform at the highest level or be replaced.

1.Edinson Cavani(Napoli)-£50m - £30m if we sell Dzeko, worth it.
2.Luis Suarez(Liverpool)-£40m - No FUCKING way
3.Christian Benteke(Aston Villa)-£25m - £8m>£25m, ridiculous
CENTRE BACK
1.Eliaquim Mangala(Porto)-£18m - Not sure, rather have Hummels
2.Aleksander Dragovic(Basel)-£8m - Decent buy - did well in Europe
3.Diego Novaretti(Toluca)-free - Can't argue with a free
DEFENSIVE MIDFIELD
1.Fernandinho(Shakhtar Donetsk)-£40m - £40!!!!! WHAT!
2.Arturo Vidal(Juventus)-£25m - Expensive for a DM
3.Geoffrey Kondogbia(Sevilla)-£18m - Wouldn't be a bad buy
PLAYMAKER
1.Isco(Malaga)-£25m - Great buy but we could get him less than £25
2.Cesc Fabregas(Barcelona)-£25m - £25? Doubt it
3.Adam Maher(AZ Alkmaar)-£15m - Never heard of him?
WINGER
1.Gareth Bale(Tottenham)-£60m - Obvious great buy, but will Spurs sell him to us?
2.Jesus Navas(Sevilla)-£8m - Bargain at £8m and much needed width
3.Arjen Robben(Bayern Munich)-£12m - Bit of an arse

Strikers - Benteke needs to prove he isn't a one season wonder. £25M is too much to pay.
CB, I'd take the free one and £8M one as we have Kompany and Nasty.
DM - no way Fernandinho will cost £40M. For £20M maybe.
Playmaker - I'd take Isco AND Fabregas.
Winger - We won't get Bale, Robben has already said no. Navas will do.
I say spend £130M and get Navas, Isco, Fabregas, Cavanni, Dragovic, Novaretti, Fernandinho.
Selling Dzeko, Nasri and Lezza will get us about £50M. Add that to the £20M for Mario and a net spend of about £60M. There are a few other sales (Kolarov, Barry, maybe Tevez) which will bring this figure down further.
Imagine....
Hart
Zabba, Kompany, Nasty, Clichy
Silva, Yaya, Isco
Aguero, Cavanni, Fabregas
Subs: Fernandinho, Milner, Micah, Navas, Dragovich, Suarez, Richard Wright...
