Our future in the sexiest game ever!
First and foremost,
reason is that his price value. With FFP (Financial Fair Play) grooming at the
door steps of the European football CHELSEA can’t afford to give £50 million
for a 27 year “OOLLDD”. It’s too costly. Now you people might say that his
scoring ability is awesome. But still our owner Roman who has made Falcao a top
target must look at the following aspects.
GOODBYE
grannys and our transition
After the departure of
the old men like Drogba (still our striking legend) , Anelka , Bosingwa, Raul Meirless
and will be followed by Malouda , Ferraira, Yossi Benayoun this season it is
clear that Roman tried to do something different. With AVB bringing in signings
like Mata , Cahill , Lukas Piazon,Lukaku etc. and after the firing of AVB , RDM
took charge and again bought in Hazard , Oscar , Mosses, Cesar Azpeliquata ,
followed by Roman’s refusal to sign or extend contracts of the players who’s
ages are above 30 , it’s clear that CHELSEA is now in a transition state…
If you see CHELSEA
squad now it’s fully based on pace , counter and accurate passes. Torres is
still surviving and scoring goals (though less often when compared to his
LIVERPOOL days , at least a goal in 3 games(16 goals in 50 matches this
season)) his pace and accelatation and his running abilities. On the other hand
Falcao is just a finisher who has no pace, no acceleration, nothing. He can’t
survive at CHELSEA with these qualities with the Current CHELSEA squad, filled
with pace footed genius.
Also within three years
in Falcao’s CHELSEA contract he would reach 30 yrs. and which makes him an unwanted
then, unless he proves his worth.
With CHELSEA signing all
young prospects now, signing a 27-year-old might be a fool’s decision. Also
there is a speculation that we are going to swap Torres for Falcao. Even then
Athletico Madrid wants us to pay £35 million plus. So selling a 50million flop
for mere 15 million is a big financial loss for us. But now I’m happy to hear
that CHELSEA recently refused to include Coutoris (our goalkeeper who’ having
an excellent run at A.madrid) .For that we can sell Torres for $25 million to
Anzhi, a Russian club who has recently approached CHELSEA for Torres. Also all
our striker signings above $30 million for CHELSEA has always resulted in a
flop.(Torres, Schevchenko, Crespo)
THE RETUEN OF
THE BEAST
One biggest point is
Lukaku. The BEAST who is having a dream season at West Brom will return to THE
BLUES at the end of the season. Keeping in mind that he shouldn’t to loaned
again, alongside with Demba Ba and Torres (in case if we are not selling him)
it would turn CHELSEA into striker’s graveyard to striker’s heaven. All three (UNLESS
TORRES IS SOLD!!!) can cope up well with CHELSEA easily. Also Lukaku is working
with Kevin de Bryune , Hazard Brothers for Belgium National team and their
chemistry might be working at CHELSEA too.
Signing Falcao will make
Lukaku a third optional striker for us, which would force Lukaku to be sent on
loan again and ruin Lukaku’s talents for CHELSEA.

CHEAP AND BEST
Another point is that
R.V.Persie was also a goal scoring machine for the Gunners for the last couple
of seasons he was just sold for $25 million even though he is just a year elder
to Falcao. This might be an valid point to argue with. Cheap signing of a striker
for about $10 to $20 million is enough for CHELSEA (likes of Aspas-Celta Vigo,
Bony-Vittese, Aubameuang-St.ettiene who all come under a price tag of below $20
million) is more than enough. Also players like Bamford and Feruz who are
having a great season at youth team also should be given an optional chances
periodically.
Also if Aston Villa is
relegated this season, world-class strikers like Benteke who would like to
continue playing in Premier League topflight , might be eyeing transfer
to top class teams. So Chelsea might consider this too as an option as Benteke
as already proved his worth and also comes in handy $15 million price tag which
is affordable for CHELSEA.
Wilfred Bony,24, who is
having a dream season for Vittesse has scored 27 goals in just 24 league games
and he’s an Ivorian as Drogba has a price tag of just $10 million.
EMOTIONAL DECISIONS MIGHT LEAD TO DIASTER
· Another problem with
CHELSEA OFFICE is that they make a player their target once when he scores
against them.
· For example Falcao (in
UEFA super cup where he scored hat-trick against us), Mireles(for Liverpool) ,
Shakthar’s Willian(his 2 goals in this year’s UEFA CL) , Torres, etc.
· So please. Roman
Abrahamovich don’t get emotional and sign our FUTUTRE FLOP FALCAO.
· Also Lukaku and Demba Ba
might become a surplus item as was Torres at CHELSEA during his early days.
JUDGEMENT
Hey Roman if you have £50 million($60 million) just divide it and
buy the following players,
· o Fellaini (a
possible replacement for
LAMPS)- $25 million
· Luke Shaw-Southampton
left back(As replacement for Ashley Cole)- $8 million
· Isco -$20 million
· Benteke - $10 - $15
million (only if Aston Villa is relegated)
· Bring back Kevin de Bryune,
Lukaku, John McEachran and Courtois, Piazon and give them an ample amount of
chances.
· Try buying Yaya Toure -
$25 million (optional).
· Sell Essien, Torres,
Malouda, Benayoun, Ferrirra, Turnbull…
· And no more signing of
attacking mid-fielders…
Finally bring back “our” SPECIAL ONE…
IF NOTHING WORKS IN CASE OF STRIKERS JUST PLAY 4-6-0 ‘COS EVERYONE
SAYS “CHELSEA???!!!...STRIKER’S HELL (except Drogba) AND MID-FIELDER’S
HEAVEN”
