Re: Mohamed Salah

I think you're wrong in suggesting we need another winger in the first place. We've already got Hazard, Willian and Schurrle. As I said, he's just taking up a valuable place in the squad that could be filled by somebody actually competent in their position.

by Kick Mon Jul 21, 2014 10:56 pm

You think we should only have 3 wingers? scratch

I'd rather have 4 wingers and 1 AM than 3 wingers and 2 AM's.

Neither Oscar or Cesc is any good on the wing, neither can come in and change a game with their pace. (Speaking if one of our wingers got injured)

Also, if we didn't have Salah, Jose would play Ramires on the wing Laughing

He already does rofl

by Kick Mon Jul 21, 2014 11:03 pm

if we didn't have Salah, he would do it more often than presently

by Shed Mon Jul 21, 2014 11:04 pm

He's not much worse there than Salah, is the problem...

by Blue Barrett Mon Jul 21, 2014 11:38 pm

LMFAO Shed says Moses has pace? rofl

His pace is slightly above average. Not sure where you get that from. Salah is one of the fastest wingers in the world on top speed. That alone makes him valuable.

Mohamed Salah eyes domestic and European titles with Chelsea after impressive pre-season:
Chelsea winger Mohamed Salah has set his sights on Premier League and Champions League titles in his first full season at Stamford Bridge
http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/494560/Mohamed-Salah-eyes-domestic-and-European-titles-for-Chelsea-after-impressive-pre-season

"I’m very happy to have scored two goals in pre-season so far, it’s always good to score but the most important thing for me is to make sure I help the team win every game."

"I hope having pre-season with my team-mates will help me next season. We’ve done well so far, the training has been very good, intense and we are improving all the time."

"The aim is for us to win the Premier League and Champions League. It’s important for a club like Chelsea to challenge for every competition we enter and hopefully we can do that."

"In terms of myself, I don’t usually like to set too many targets but I just want to improve as a player as much as I can and help my team-mates become successful."

Impressive preseason?

Must have been a different 5 games on over there in the Express cubicle room than the rest of us got.

All accounts I have seen, he hasn't been that good.

by Shed Sun Aug 03, 2014 9:21 pm

Then the accounts you have seen have been correct ones Wink

Di Marzio says we offered Salah to Inter but the club said they weren't convinced and didn't want him.

Would have been idiotic.

by Shed Mon Sep 01, 2014 10:00 pm

For them, yes it would have.

by Kick Mon Sep 01, 2014 10:14 pm

For us, would you like to have gone out of the transfer window with just 3 wingers?

by Shed Mon Sep 01, 2014 10:19 pm

Hazard, Willian, Schurrle, and Remy can play there.

by Kick Mon Sep 01, 2014 10:25 pm

I seem to recall you not caring for Remy being able to play there Laughing

I honestly don't mind Salah as a depth option, as long as he is happy to play it.

by Shed Mon Sep 01, 2014 10:29 pm

No, I said I wasn't bothered about it concerning the value-for-money of the deal.

Egypt coach Shawky Gharib criticizes Chelsea over Salah role:
Egypt manager Shawky Gharib says he is dissapointed with Mohamed Salah's lack of playing time at Chelsea, and blamed the club in part for his side's defeat to Senegal:
http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11668/9461181/chelsea-egypt-coach-shawky-gharib-upset-with-mo-salahs-lack-of-fitness

"We had many mistakes in passing the ball and we failed to put the required pressure on our opponents but the defenders are not the only ones to be blamed; the poor fitness of the players, especially Chelsea’s Mohamed Salah, is also a reason for the loss."

"The Egyptian league hasn't started yet and also Salah didn’t play regularly with Chelsea. If Salah is off-form, Egypt's performance is always affected."

Maybe the fact that's he's utterly useless might have summut to do with it? #justathought

The perfect two birds with one stone scenario. Them adding yet another bang average player to their squad while getting rid of one from ours.

Need another piece of magic from you, Emenalo :bow:

15m and the guarantee of Baker getting gametime and I am in.

by Shed Wed Sep 24, 2014 12:16 am

What does Baker have to do with suh-LAH leaving scratch

by Kick Wed Sep 24, 2014 12:18 am

We need to replace an AM with someone.

by Shed Wed Sep 24, 2014 12:21 am

Salah's strictly a winger. Baker isn't.

by Kick Wed Sep 24, 2014 12:23 am

Yes but both would play in the band of 3.

It'll bring us down to 3 wingers, Hazard, Willian and Schurrle, for two spots. Ramires and Oscar can also feature there but that weakens our middle which is where Baker comes in Proud

by Shed Wed Sep 24, 2014 12:24 am

And yet when I suggested a late sale of Salah in the summer window, you said we couldn't because it was imperative we had 4 players who could play on the wing rofl
