Roman Abramovich confirmed for confusing real life and Football Manager:

Dan Levene ?@BluesChronicle
Major Chelsea rebuild under-way. Eden Hazard all but sorted. Hulk 90% complete. Talk of renewed interest in Luka Modric. Interesting summer.

Mata, Marin, Hazard, Modric...Chelsea eschewing the powerful players that have won it's trophies for small, skilled players. Interesting. I've never thought RDM should be handed the job despite their trophies, but these acquisitions (and potential acquisitions) have me even less convinced.

I'm not thrilled with the new direction we seem to be going in but if we sign Hulk he will make up for a lot of these little soft guys. Dude is a monster.

This is what I hope our lineup looks like next year.


Torres
Mata Hazard Hulk
Lamp Mikel/Ramires
Cole Terry Cahill/Luiz Ivan
Cech

Hazard would probably be on the left interchanging with Mata but yea crazy offense but little dudes. I'll be watching US game even closer than usual to watch Hulk. I'm hoping his fee goes down a bit but apparently his wages will be relatively low so overall he'd be a bit cheaper than Hazard.

That concept doesn't make much sense to me.. Shouldn't there be a decent correlation between transfer fees and wages?

I think we'd be back in a 4-3-3 with all the speed

something like:
Cech
Ivan-Luiz/Cahill-Terry-Cole
Ramires-Lamps-Mata/Hazard
Hulk-Torres-Mata/Hazard

That's scary.

The AVB era is still too fresh for me to embrace the 433 but it's probably what Roman will want and our manager choice will likely reflect that.

Where does Sturridge fit in? Do we buy another top striker or do we give him the shot he so badly wants in the middle when Torres needs a rest or if he continues to be unable to find the net?

Also, I haven't seen a ton of Hulk. Can he play up top if need be or is he an out and out winger?

No clue man just remember reading that on wagnh.com Chelsea's sbnation account.

Apparently Hulk could play some striker but obviously Torres will be the main target. I havent heard anything about a new manager at all yet which leads me to believe RDM will be back and probably use the 4-2-3-1 until he's gone.

Well we cant use the same starting XI every match, so I think Sturridge and Lukaku (if we don't loan him out) will be the subs at striker when needed and will also rack up some starts.

And I believe Hulk can play anywhere up top, but someone with better knowledge than myself should clarify

Hulk has the size, speed, and skill to play anywhere up front. A true freak of nature.

I hope signing Hazard doesn't affect our pursuit of Hulk. Aside from the fact he's four years younger I would much much rather have Hulk. But it seems Belgium is Roman's new Africa.

Lucas Moura para 2013


According to reports today, Real Madrid plans to sign Moura, cede/loan him back to his actual side, and bring him to Madrid in the summer/autumn of 2013.
