Juan Mata

[Thendo 1,088]

Dammit! This might actually happen...I am seriously feeling physically sick just thinking of him playing for manu...I do hope José have something sinister up his sleeve and trolls them on deadline day leaving them without a big signing or something...

Thank you Juan for the great times, who can forget your first goal against Norwich after comin on as a sub, the wonderful goal against Arsenal even thgh we lost 5-3, the wonderful turn against Newcastle to set up Drogba,s goal, the goals against spurs at WHL when we were losing 2-1, the 87th min goal against the scum united which sealed champions league football for this season and most important of all the perfect corner kick assist in the 88th minute on the 19th of May 2012 which made us forget our years of pain in the champ league. I will always remember the Juan Mata tht mesmerised the bridge with his magical touch and who was our POTY for 2 seasons not this guy on the bench who brings tears to my eyes. Juan Mata forever in our hearts.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ntKgLxgY9s

Bloody hell mate, he's not died

Bloody hell mate, he's not died

It'll be nearly as bad seeing him in that red shirt getting countless assists for RvP.

The thing with the Mata situation is you can only bring 18 players to the game on game day.

Starting 11 + 7 on the bench.

Granted,

1 GK

2 Defenders

1/2 CM

1/2 AM

1/2 CF

Out of the cm, am, and CF only one of them will have 2 spots on the bench... Logically, if we were winning, Mourinho wouldnt bring on an attacking player, moreso a CM or a Defender and if we were losing, he would probably bring on a CF..

So, at the end of the day, its going to be between Schurrle or Mata for the bench spot.

Also, when people keep talking about what if Oscar gets injured, Hazard, etc. Too be honest, you can say the same thing about CM and our defenders and Cech.

An injury to cech is a lot more severe for the gks, an injury to Rambo is a lot more severe for the cms, and if Jt gets injured, who knows whats going to happen. Am is the least of our worries for a defensive minded team.

Mata with Mourinho will continue playing on the right side and continue being gassed out trying to play Jose game. Its one thing if we were selling our starting cam to Manchester United, but its another thing when your selling the last choice cam for Chelsea...

Lastly, people act like Roman enjoys spending money on transfer fees. Act as if the potential funds raised from a sale wouldnt help Chelsea out this season and in the future. You cant keep expecting Roman to pay high fees to get high ranked players all the time.

[Alan Partridge 1,124]

Are the board mentally challenged? Has Jose had a knock on the head as well as hurting his arm the other day? You don't strengthen your rivals, especially when they refused to consider selling Rooney to us.

They better have something lined up if this is true.

Mata must have enjoyed the Europa League

[Ze Mario 638]

oh gawd just loan mata to united if they desperately need him. that way mata get his game time, and help MU to beat the shit of city, arsenal, loserpool.

and then we talk again about permanent deal in the summer

[chelsea_4_eva 1,142]

FUCK NO! NOT TO UNITED!

[The Skipper 20,593]

I don't mind him leaving, but just don't want to see him go to United. Surely we have more pride than that as a club.

£42m is a lot of cash though.

[Sheva. 5,373]

As good as done if Martin Samuel and Neil Ashton are to be believed.

[DDA 9,570]

Just had a look on redcafe. That site is disgusting lol. Not a patch on ours.

The way they talk about us Chelsea fans too. Lol. Just lol.

Soo bitter that their time is up.

That £42m has to go towards a top-class striker

[francozola 2,040]

This is so depressing Balague saying that we're asking for 32m?! 32million is a joke, I don't care that he's a bench warmer for us atm. He's a fucking class act and Utd may be shit this season but they're still Utd for fucks sake. Can't believe we're even considering selling to them

We are going to regret this in the future. When Utd sort their problems out, either with a new manager or with Moyes getting his act together, and they bring in some classy players to surround Juan, they'll be a danger again. And Juan is so young, he can be a star for 5-6 years. If we want to get rid, fine, but why oh why to Utd?!?!

They're acting as if it's been announced officially already over there.. Cannot wait to read reactions after mourinho refuses to sell to them.. It's gonna be better than when they thought thiago alcantara was gonna sign with them

[Rubber bullets 1,183]

Well isn't that kind of us. We are basically going to help Man Utd become a force again.

What the fuck are the board and Jose thinking.

[Vybz Kartel 1,613]

Typical Chelsea always thinkin short term

[GZ25 45]

From overleaded with 6 creative players, soon there's only 4 players (Hazard-Oscar-Schurrle-Willian) for 3 attacking midfielder positions...
