Obviously we are very interested in Griezmann but if we sign him where should he play? For me I would play him RW and move Willian to no.10. Oscar may leave but how good is Griezmann on the RW. I know LW is his main position but would he still be a threat on the right?I've always thought he's similar to Robben so hopefully he can cut in and score.

Oscar won't leave according to Mourinho.

And you listen to everything he says do you? He said mata wasn't for sale.

Griezmann on the left Hazard in the number 10 role, Willan slows the play too much, therefore better suited to RW. Just my opinion.

That's a decent attacking three blue is the colour but would Jose go that attacking with Fabregas next to Matic also?

One can only hope!

If you are following the same logic Mourinho also said that Hazard is not for sale.

I think if we are going to sign a player for £40m then I think the club will sell oscar. Greizman is good but there are cheaper options like pedro or theo Walcott who I would. It be disappointed with. I would like to see us go all out for Paul pogba,changing formation back to 4-3-3.

Why change something what's not broken? I love our formation

I still think bale would be the better option as he's much better at cutting in and shooting but I doubt he'll leave.

I personally would prefer Griezmann, Bale lools broken at RM. Griezmann on the other hand has flourished under Simeone this season and I think would work well in our system- and he'll bring goals! I'd like to see him on the right, with Hazard on the left and Willian playing through the middle. Think this would work perfectly. And if it didn't, we could always try Griezmann on ther left, Willian on the right and Hazard through the middle. However, I don't think it actually matters too much anyway as they'll all be interchanging. That's the beauty of our system

The difference in price between bale and griezman would buy you a Rafael varane.

Good Morning to everyone! I have been on this site for a while now and while I prefer to read people's questions and answers from the Eds, I post to congratulate each and everyone, fans or rivals who have participated or enjoyed this site! We should all consider ourselves lucky with the information we get here concerning the Club that we LOVE or others love to hate a very good thing! Remember #thewillalwaysbehaters #CHAMPIONS #ALLDAYWAY.

To all or any of the EDs and anyone with a valid opinion!

1.What does it take for anyone to captain a team! Not to mention a Big European Team!

2. Are the days of having Skillful and influential players as Captains? ie Maradona . Baggio, am sure everyone can mentions a few more .

3. What would you say differs from a club captain and international captain .

4 Could the Likes Of Eden Hazard Captain and at what point Can One be regarded as a potential Captain .?

5 . Out of all the Players We Are Link To . Who do we actually need to strengthen or what Positions do we require players, replacements or cover for

. Thanks

1.The captain has to be natural leader. Only 5% of people have ability to become a leader-this is something proven by serious scientific research done from, CIA and KGB.Each research took more than two decades.
2.Not every top player has mental strength to lead the team. Actually it's quite rare among top talents.
3.Nothing.
4.It is hard to answer that question. ATM there are several players at Chelsea who are better candidates to captain. In the future who knows.
5. Striker typical CF,probably left back, left footed winger and maybe just maybe CM( don't forget that MvG is Chelsea player as well as Pasalic).
If Chelsea has intention to promote RLC we don't need DM.
