Not lying here but i heard from a few sources the deal might be back on but Chelsea would wait til deadline day. The reason being is that Benfica are a selling club and they kind of shot themself in the foot being picky about the installments and Chelsea knew this. So Chelsea pulled out of the deal and knew Benfica would be panicing so the ball was very much in Chelsea's court.
He looks like a very good footballer but in the PL he will have to adapt because you dont get that much time on the ball.
agree with ur points but the best thing about him is his pace, we sorely need his pace in our backline, Terry and Alex never managed to cope with the likes of Torres, fast strikers mainly unless they played really deep and this impacted our game, we missed Carvalho alot but Luiz looks like someone who can take his place
I have a really high opinion of David Luiz, he was in my choice of Team of the Year for 2010 and can see him being a huge success - Shame he had to join Chelsea.
we were long-term admirers of him mate, been after him for sometime now
same thing with him we are doing currently with Neymar, been after him for lots of time and there was even talk that Neymar could come in the summer although apparently his dad wanted him to spend a few more years in Brazil before moving abroad
Well Luiz said Ramires was a big part in him moving to Chelsea so lets hope the pair of them can work on Neymar now lol.
crazy hair - I can't think of anything better to say XD
he'll be pretty good for Chelsea IMHO, but how will he fit in when Alex returns?
I dont think he will start. He will be backup for Alex and Ivanovic may go back to right back. Also i believe Alex may leave in the summer.
I think Alex will leave in the summer, too. I don't know why, but in my opinion he is not good enough to be first team player, he's more like a backup player.
