Messi, Suarez & Neymar: The Best Front 3 In The Game?

[Sozabarus]

Real poached Robben from Chelsea so it can be done, but I don't necessarily agree with the notion that if Madrid/Barca want a player then they'll get him. Can't see Hazard leaving Chelsea any time soon.

I keep hearing it will happen one day.

But obviously i don't agree with any of that. Hazards going to be at the Bridge for as long as we won't him IMO(and Ronaldo's still years away from leaving Real).

He's right though, Real and Barca have never come in for players from Chelsea yet. United who are much bigger than Chelsea and certainly more successful at the time lost Ronaldo to Real. When Real and Barca come knocking, you lose your players. They went and got Modric, Neymar, Bale, Suarez, Rodriguez etc etc... they are now after DDG and you know how that will end.

It's just they havent actively pursued a Chelsea player yet. When they do, let's see what happens.

It doesnt matter how a club handles them. The English media is insane. After the racial stuff and the biting. It was never gonna be good for him in England. He would have wanted out of Chelsea as much as he wanted out of Liverpool too.

I actually think Jose would have been best for him in these situations as he seems the master at taking the heat of the players and putting the focus on himself as he does numerous times a season.

Robben was sold by Jose as he wasn't his style of player and was always injured wasn't he?.

They pursued Courtois recently, apparently already have but failed with Hazard, can remember Ballack, Drogba, Cole etc also being linked to them at different stages too. It has happened.

Maybe, you would probably know better than me. Do remember Chelsea kicking up a fuss about "tapping him up" though.

Yeah but they're just the ones you know about. I'm sure there are others they've tried to sign that we don't know about because they failed to get them.

Yeah, I vaguely remember something like that but I think that was the year before we sold him.

Not to the extent they go to when they really want a player. I barely remember them pursuing Courtois and certainly not Hazard. When they get the media machine behind them and aggressively go after a big name. 9 out of 10 times they get it done.

I guess they don't go all out on unobtainable targets.

 

[jod23]

I guess they don't go all out on unobtainable targets.

Perhaps, or its because neither Real or Barca really need Hazard at this point.

Or he prefers to play at Chelsea

Haha, maybe, just maybe.

You're going all typeclub on us now

 

[chef]

You're going all typeclub on us now

Because i have confidence in my clubs ability to hold onto our best players. Cool.

I'm sure typeclub has the same confidence.

Chelsea have three things to offer that Liverpool do not.

1. Mourinho. The best coach in the world.
2. London. Genuine bona fide triple AAA alpha city. Arguably the world's favourite city.
3. Their sugar daddy has deeper pockets than the Fenway boys.

A combination of those three factors make them the only club in England with the exception of Manchester United who have a hope of resisting the Spanish duopoly at the moment.

things will change. At some point the EPL's vast financial lead will tell. At some point the financial cloak and dagger stuff behind Spanish football will come under the spotlight. Barcelona and others are deeply corrupt....the FIFA affair will make it more difficult to continue to turn a blind eye. At some point United will cease to be a cash cow for the Glazers. When that happens Madrid won't be shopping at the United superstore any more.

The pendulum is about to swing back in England's favour. The underlying reality is that the biggest richest clubs in the biggest richest league won't be selling clubs forever.

 

[moomba]

Depends how badly a played wants a move. No club can hold onto a player that wants out bad enough.

Chelsea and us are better placed than anyone to hold out against the likes of Real/Barca IMO. But if one if our players want out badly enough, we'd both sell up. Silva and Aguero have both had nibbles, but both made clear they're happy where they are. My change one day of course.

 

[Kompany]

Real haven't gone after Hazard yet. It's just that Zidane regularly declares his admiration for him.

Hazard seems really happy at Chelsea but I can see him leave the day he believes that he will have a better chance at getting the ballon d'or at Real than he has at Chelsea. Or maybe he'll just want something else after 5 or so seasons.

 

[typeclub]

The campaigning against Neymar seems to continue as Xavi says Neymar celebrated too much in the victory parade and has too much of a 'Brazilian attitude'. lolwot

Don't think he deserves all the hate he gets at Barca

 

[FAITH]

maybe Real could sign him they need more ucl winners in their team.

 

[typeclub]

They way he's being treated over there they deserve to get Figo'd.

pretty much our whole team are ucl winners though.

 

[Zidane98]

They'll offer 60m + Crynaldo.

 

[typeclub]

They'll offer 60m + Crynaldo.

For that price they will need to include the Nou Camp and settle with the tax authorities.

 

[LeoMessi]

Did you happen to catch CR7's real market value published today? Ranked 3rd behind Messi and Hazard. A whopping $100mil less than Messi

 

[Zidane98]

Real will offer 50 million + Crynaldo for Hazard. Can Chelsea resist chef ?
