I see bulk a but like ronaldo. Quick lots skill and like a shot from distance, in not saying his better or as gd but same sort player I think hulk moura falcao would be to much to ask for, wishfull thinking. But hulk is brilliant
Agree1

Would be a great option for the club. He has a fantastic goal scoring record from the right of a front three, and worked amazingly with Falcao, so may well be good for Torres as well as Chelsea on the whole.

Dont really want demba ba.had one good half season and we all know what happened to the last newcastle striker who had that. dont think we need both hulk and lavezzi and at the moment hulk seems likely. agree otherwise although would like martinez over mikel

He is the Hulk! Did you see The Avengers? Well this would be our team talk - 'Fernando, find space behind this man, he is slow'; 'David, stay in your half till we take the lead'; 'Juan, their left back is normallyout of position, so you can find space there to pass'; 'Hulk! SMAASSSHHHH!!'
P.S. - Our Away Jersey should be green, I'd buyone with HULK on the back!
Hope he's a hit!
Well Not sure how true the rumours are but hey if he comes its totally good for us, any player of his quality that wants to play for my chelsea is welcomed.

Just heard from my source in Porto that hulk agreement has been reached with both club and player although it is only verbal at present and will be concluded when relevant parties are back from their vacations

If the luiz to barca rumours are true then I think if we hold them to ransom.dani alves or thiago plus cash or £35m,I think this is good business.I am a huge fan of ivanovic and see him as a better defender than luiz.There is no doubt luiz has quality but I don't think it's defending,I think he looks more comfortable going forward.Maybe Defensive midfield,where is is not making rash tackles as last man in and around the box.I think in a DM role he can become a better player,but in defence he has my heart pounding when he attempts a challenge.
Possible team next year;
Cech
Alves. Ivanovic. Terry. Cole
Lampard. Ramires
Hulk. Mata. Lavezzi.
Torres

Although he may be very good at his job, I thought everybody (especially CFC fans), hated Dani Alves. I personally would never want to see him in Chelsea Blue.

Yea hea not liked by chelsea but niether was ashley cole! If u have a chance of a player like that u need to take it hes arguably best rb in the world

Its different being a right back at barcelona than at chelsea. they have so much of the ball he is the oppositions half more than his own. That wouldnt be the case here. He would be completely exposed defensively playing for us.

English winners of the UEFA Champions League who do not qualify through their domestic position go forward as Winners to the group stage, with the team finishing fourth dropping to the UEFA Europa League. In this case, the national association of the title-holder is entitled to one additional place in the UEFA Europa League.
COME ON CHELSEA! {Ed002's Note - It is not an additional place in the Europa League though.}

What are the options if Luiz, Cahill or both are not fit for the Champions League Final?
I know Bosingwa played well against Barcelona when playing at CB but they are, obviously, a completely different outfit to Bayern Munich. Bayern will put lots of balls into the box for Gomez to get on the end of. Barcelona had no aerial threat which made it reasonably comfortable for Bosingwa to defend in the middle; Gomez would beat him in the air 99% of the time and in Robben and Ribery they have good delivery. Also with Ivanovic missing he will probably be used at RB; Ferreira doesn’t have the pace any more to cope with Ribery.
Hutchinson, Romeu and maybe Essien (who has filled in there before) are the other options. Hutchinson for me would be first choice. I know it’s a big ask for someone who only retired a short while ago due to injury (has a touch of the Hollywood about it) and whose first team appearances you can count on your fingers, but after his shaky performance against Liverpool I’d have to question Romeu’s character for a game this big. With Ramires and Miereles out Essien may well be needed in midfield so he isn’t really an option.
The hope has to be that at least one of either Luiz (looks more hopeful) or Cahill are fit.
On another note…I can’t believe that Bruce Buck openly questioned Di Matteo’s team selection vs Liverpool prior to this game. With the suspensions and injuries he is going to have enough selection headaches and pressure without that. Its one thing for fans on sites such as this to question it, because let’s be honest he won’t read them, but when a senior member of the club like Buck does it to the press it’s just stupid!
