2. Chelsea
Jose Mourinho should be crying out for a striker with summer signing Samuel Eto’o failing to find the back of the net on a regular basis. Their other strikers, Fernando Torres and Demba Ba too have been far from prolific this season, and have constantly been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge.
Poor finishing have nearly cost Chelsea on many occasions this season, and Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho is desperate for a clinical striker. Martinez’s continued prolific form for Porto means that he has been linked with a move to the Blues, and he would undoubtedly be a great fit for the role of spearheading the Chelsea attack.
Martinez’s addition would provide Chelsea with a clinical finisher who has a proven track record, albeit in the less competitive Portuguese league. In addition, his physical presence and pace would lend more cutting edge to Chelsea’s direct style of play, and would be a further step along Mourinho’s counter-attack based philosophy.
So, where should he go? Chelsea or Arsenal? Conclusion on next page,
