Chelsea Must Continue Push for Attacker Victor Moses.
Chelsea’s roster is nearly ready to begin the upcoming Premier League season, but Wigan Athletic forward Victor Moses would be the final piece of the puzzle.
Fernando Torres is extremely talented, and Daniel Sturridge, at 22 years old, has considerable upside, but Moses is only 21 years of age. Adding him to the fold would provide much-needed depth on Chelsea’s attack while also adding upside for the future of the club.
Moses’ arrival is expected at some point for the Blues
Wigan reportedly value Moses at nearer £10m, and speculation has increased in the last 48 hours that the 21-year-old is poised to join Chelsea.
But Neil Fewings, who is the agent for Moses, has moved quickly to deny the reports.
“Reports that a £9m deal has been agreed between Chelsea and Wigan are not true,” Fewings said.
This should not stop the Blues from pursuing Moses. He’s a versatile offensive talent who has not reached his full potential yet. Allowing him to develop alongside the likes of Torres and Sturridge is an opportunity Roberto Di Matteo should not pass up without a fight.
Moses played for Crystal Palace from 2007-10, notching 58 appearances and 11 goals. After making the move to Wigan Athletic, he racked up 72 more appearances and eight goals.
He’s used at multiple positions, but his skills lend themselves to the wing. He’s a talented attacker who thrives in open space. He’s a bit undersized, but his agility in the open field allows him to create for his teammates.
Moses isn’t going to score 30 goals next season, and he’s not necessarily ready to bear the brunt of an entire Premier League attack, but Di Matteo cannot enter the season with the attackers on his current roster.
Sturridge and Torres are good, without a doubt, but they’re still only two players. If one were to get hurt or fail to produce, the Blues’ situation would be much worse.
Adding Moses to the fold would promote depth in the short term and production in the long term. He isn’t exactly cheap, but he’s worth the price if he’s developed properly.

I am happy cos chelsea has finally landed victor moses.we can’t hope on Tores most times he fail to deliver so moses would be a good option moses can also play from d wing. Up chelsea up moses
i wil like chelsea to sign victor moses coz is a very good player nd i also like d way he dribble d way he moves his body i tink is a good player chelsea should not lose hope on victor moses i love his football play as a chelsea i be victor moses is good go ahead nd sign him u wil not regret it.
I have watch moses played last season and in 2012/2013 first match against the very chelsea side. Victor is a good. creative and fast player, adding him to the already strong chelsa side would help Frenando up front and with the likes of Hazard who has already fit in into the team, it’s goining to be really interesting to watch moses in the chelsea side along side Torres, Hazard, Oscar and Mata play….we need moses deperaterly.
For me will have sign dat guy he is player.
Chelsea fan 2 me dat is a gud guy.
Sturridge and Torres are good, without a doubt, but they’re still only two players. If one were to get hurt or fail to produce, the Blues’ situation would be much worse. I do not know why Chelsea is delaying for Victor Moses, if Victor had come in as subsitute during the community shiled, maybe Chelsea would not have lost!!! What is really wrong with Di Matteo taking decisive decision????
am afan for chelsea foot ball cub for more than 15 yrs, and i do request Roberto Di mateo to buy cavani from napoli for drogbars re-placement.

Chelsea should victor moses he ¶§ Ƌ̲̣̣̣ good player watchout ƒό̲̣̣̣̥r̲̅ him nxt season
Victor-moses, is skinful player. I wil like him to be one of chelsea player. Because he is a play maker. And again i want chelsea coach, to make sure that he use victor every match. So that moses he wil be improve more and more. Pls mattheo chelsea’s coach know how to give those new players chance to prove themself in time like this. So that other club wil be looking a player buying from chelsea. Isn’t a sin if such happen in chelsea. Advice is not cours.
