I'm also interested to see how big a role Marin plays on this team.



I think he will be eased in. We have a ton of extra games this year and will need everyone. Everyone also seems to forget we still have McEachran, although another loan may not be the worst thing for him.

I'm also not really comfortable entering the season with Torres, Sturridge, and Lukaku as our only striker options.


Agreed, I can deal with Torres. I still think he can score. Sturridge has had flashes that excite me and times where I want him to get viral meningitis. Lukaku needs to be loaned out. He's nowhere near being ready.

I'm starting to think McEachran is not going to ever turn into the player Chelsea thought he would. I think that's part of the reason we bought De Bruyne.

Sturridge has had flashes but he has never played as the central striker for us so who knows what he would look like there and I haven't seen enough of Lukaku to really make a fair judgement. We all know what Torres is capable of but he's also just as capable of going like 3 months without scoring again which is a scary thought with no proven backup.

I think he needs a chance to show what he can do, but I don't think he's ready either. I just want to see what he would do with a chance. He's been begging to see the field.

Marin will start out as a sub, and get worked into the starting lineup as the season progresses and people get tired. I could see him relieving Hazard and Mata, and starting when they aren't fit/in form.
