tmonkey Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 I would rather someone like Sabri than Beye tbh because of his attacking strength/ability, especially for this 4-3-3 system where width needs to be provided by the fullback. Yes, he'll leave gaping holes at the back, yes, we'll be exposed at various points of the season because of that, but play a centreback or central midfielder capable of covering for him and we'd increase our attacking play and creativity considerably.

Disco Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Yossi Benayoun? Luis Garcia? for that creativity? Yossi Benayoun isn't the worst shout I've heard, can play all over midfielder/off the striker, bags of experience and chips in with a few goals. He's offensive to the eyes though.

robbo_11 Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Newcastle are interested in Boulahrouz according to the Telegraph. If it were to come off I'm undecided as he didn't look comfortable in the Chelsea backline and he still seems to be brash (similar to Taylor, but Taylor has time to learn).

Tooj Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Boulahrouz is different class to Taylor, he never got a fair chance at Chelsea as he was often shifted out to full-back. Be a welcome addition at centre-half to our team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be a welcome addition at centre-half to our team. He's half decent, and looked a lot better for Holland than his time at chelsea, but that time where he got megged, fell over and they conceded (they did didn't they?) and looked a right tit means that no one in this league could ever take him seriously again.

Think it was Robbie Keane, remember pissing myself laughing at the time, but not as much as WHL tbf. He was playing at RB though. That incident aside he's not very good in the air, is on mental Chelsea wages, and again another Chelsea cast off, most which never work for us, and i cannot remember one game where he looked good for Chelsea.

GG Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Douglas Rinaldi skinned the whole of the Chelsea team practically when we last played them. Doesn't mean he's the best player in the world, hell he can't even get into our first team. Look it up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 I agree about the Chelsea cast offs like, just I know we could do with another body at centre-half, well ideally not just another body, a top-class centre half, just not sure who we could get who is say as good as Woodgate was when we first got him. Midfield is definitely the priority like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midfield is definitely the priority like. I really have no idea who. The defenders i rate simply wouldn't come here and i don't take as much notice of a good defender as a good attacker when watching footie from abroad. Celluer seems to be rock solid, would be the 1st name that comes to mind. People have this obsession with a 'ball playing centre half' which apparently KK loves, can't say i noticed that in his 1st days here, but it was a while ago, secondly who are these ball playing centre halves? Thirdly, what makes a good one, someone who can pass? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
