So far this summer Chelsea have signed Marko Marin and Eden Hazard, young versatile players that can terrorize a defense when they are on their game. While both should contribute at Chelsea right away, both should still have sell on value or value to the club as their contracts begin to wind down. They've also given Roberto Di Matteo a two year contract, something that seems to be going over very well with Chelsea fans on the whole. While all of the three deals they've confirmed so far seem to be very popular with the fans, Chelsea's rumored interest in Porto's Hulk hasn't been so universally accepted.
With Hulk there are concerns over his age and his pricetag, and combined with the fact that's he's yet to play in a top league, many fans are opposed to a Hulk move. The deal seemed all but done earlier this month, but recent comments from his agent and rumblings that Chelsea don't want to meet Porto's demands would seem to indicate that there's still a fair chance that this deal doesn't happen. We'll keep an eye on the situation for you, but for tonight I'm going to ask a simple question. Should Chelsea continue to pursue Hulk at this point or just move on to other targets?
