Also, what do you guys think of David Luiz's midfield role? Do you think it suits him better?


I think at DM he is less exposed to hurt the club with his occasional bonehead play. Although, He tends to waste possessions with long range bombs. I noticed he missed some key connections tonight.

Maybe not enough sample size at DM to knee jerk on him but I have never been thrilled with his game in general.

Luiz has already scored a goal as a CDM. Obi has 175 appearances since 2006 and has yet to score a goal for Chelsea. I LOVE Luiz in his new position and believe he is better suited there, especially since he likes to push forward on the occasion.

I bet we sign Ba before the weekend...

I received a note from Harry Redknapp after the game, courtesy of my boss the Arsenal fan

New Castle officials have confirmed that Ba is signing with the Blues!

Hopefully we can start finding the back of the net. *fingers crossed*

And he's already training with the team. Looks like he'll be available for tomorrow!

Didn't realize what time the FA Cup was this morning. Ba scores twice and Chelsea cruises 5-1.

Chelsea drew either a 3rd of 4th division team in the 4th round proper of the FA Cup. Hopefully no Arsenal vs Bradford City like letdown and cruise into the 5th round.

Meh. Don't really need him. Need to shore up our defense now more than anything else.

We don't need him IF everyone else at that position pans out AND stays healthy which seems to never happen. I'm just pumped that we keep on adding Brazilians! This guy will be nice to have in the squad with Lamps leaving at years end.

But I do agree, we need to strengthen our D & offload Torres ASAP!

Isn't Taison really a forward? Not sure why reports of him are midfield?

So attacking midfield looks log jammed with Taison if signed.

Hazzard
Oscar
Marin
Lamps
Ramires
Moses
Mata
Paizon
Taison

Which is why I don't understand the move.

Also, it looks like Lamps will finish the season with the Blues, thankfully. He didn't deserve to be transferred. Would be awesome if he could get 200, but not very likely.

He needs what 6 more?

7 I think. I just don't know how consistent his PT is going to be.

Could they be thinking Taison at Striker and shelving Torres? Ba stepping right in and making an impact didn't help the perception of Torres' play of late.

It was terrific to see Ba have a good debut game, but even Torres has had some pretty good non-EPL outings this season. I still expect to see Torres in the rotation this season. I don't know much about Taison, maybe he could play striker. Hell, even Moses and Mata have played forward as of late.

Hoping Lamps gets the start tomorrow to work towards his 200

Between Europa Cup, FA Cup, Capital One Cup, and the League, I think there are enough matches in there that Lamps will start/be a sub in enough to get 200. There's just a lot of fixtures.

Rumor is we're getting Fellaini
