Chelsea Manager Admits Attacking Problems

Chelsea’s manager Roberto Di Matteo has given in to the fact that the Blues are left a bit light-weighted in the attack after the club’s best goal scorer Didier Drogba left this summer. With only Sturridge and Torres competing for the target man role, the manager calls in for reinforcements.

When asked whether Chelsea will still be making transfers this summer, Di Matteo didn’t wait around to say that the club does have a few problems in attack.

‘I don’t know if there will be new arrivals. We’re probably a bit light in attacking positions.’

Chelsea have been linked with a move for Brazilian star Hulk over the last few months, but despite the intense speculation, the move didn’t go through yet and the Blues are not closer to bringing in a top striker with just over a week of transfer window left.

Spanish star Fernando Llorente might also be an option, as his agent stated earlier this week that he is in negotiations with a club from London and one from Manchester, and is due to make a decision soon  after travelling to England to negotiate his situation.

    Why waiting go for your man,but if you have problem in selecting the best striker.I will advice to go for Edinson Cavani.

    crazy chelsea .. you cannot afford to have all those midfielders
    and lack in the attack;
    £25 m + or = does not make a huge difference next to the £70 m already spent (have included azpi),
    go for schurrle he is good enough!
    in terms of strike force alone chelsea is midtable level ..

    Yea it’s obvious the strike force is dull ever since the departure of DD and we can not rely on torres who is a stark disappointment.cfc should sign a hot striker and moses while malouda and Benayoun should take the exit door

    Light in defensive midfield position as well. Mikel is a liability and needs replacing with a top class DM player. Felleini or Tiote should be brought in and sell Mikel asap!

  6. Joseharga says

    I wonder how many judge Mikel Obi. Despite chelsea constant managerial change He still maintain as chelsea’s starting XI. The manager himself is not complaining Essien is there but he preferred Mikel to him

  7. Frank wetinho says

    I think llorente or cavani ll b a gud buy,roberto di matteo should include piazon as his 3rd choice centre forward behind torres and the new buy

  8. leah smith says

    Really,! What you really mean sturridge is the only attacking forward. I love the blues bit torres will only hurt the team. Get him the confidence and or help he needs before it’s too late.

    Yea Bro! I don’t understand Y lazy Mikel shuld stil b playin in dt position. We need an eforcer in d likes of Song n Fellani. Mikel plays as if He has no competition 4 dt position. He is lookin so relaxed.

    Yes chelsea got problems in attacking but right now if chelsea shouldnt spend due to finacial fair play nad porto is in clouds for hulk price hulk is suitable for chelsea and there is another cheap option for chelsea (demba BA) if chelsea bargain for cheap we can solve problems he little bit of stregnth of drogba but he is not that much skillful and possesion of the ball but he is sutable with comparing with others but hulk is best guy to fill up and BA is also chelsea should go for cheap because BA can sit on the bench but not in the case of HULK for the substitution and abhramovic should also buy another winger in cheap according to playin style of chelsea CESKO from malga is suitable his age is 20 only he is very good in attacking from left side wing hazard can play both right also it will be more attacking (SPURS) are plannig to buy CESKO FROM MALGA please abhramovic better we should buy CESKO than MOSES he is brilliant and we should offer players like MALOUDA,benayoun,essien and kakuta for CESKO and AZPILLECUTE please dimatteo buy this guys for more attacking
