I can't wait to see the back of him, one of the reasons why the summer can't come soon enough given the CB targets Jose is looking, never even close to being a decent player. Most top clubs in Europe are desperate for centre halves, no one came calling for Cahill. Even when we bought him Arsenal only wanted him as a back up, but not for more than the 6 million they were willing to pay, which is about the price tag for him talent wise.

I thought he had a good game, although the outstanding performers were obviously Torres and Ramires.

I saw that, his first touch is Ronaldinhoesque, godly. Amazing speed as well.

I think he will start from now on, Mourinho will have seen how vital he was for us today.

He was tracking back and even tackling. His passing was a bit off but he was still driving forward and taking people on.

People saying he was poor in the match thread, I don't quite agree, yes he wasn't brilliant but he was at least decent.

Indeed. By coincidence, it's all over the papers today Fernandinho nearly joined us. Shame as he would have been perfect just in front our back four.

Not gonna lie, I thought Fernandinho was their best player by quite some distance tonight, he looks a player also. But yes, Ramires is a machine.

He did indeed! hehe I like Aguero though , good pro.

This game just proved that our pivots should be Mikel - Ramires. Only then can we have a balanced side.

Until we buy someone who is top class, it should undoubtedly be Mikel - Ramires. End of.

Strong performance by Iva, if only he could cross a bit.

Solid performance from John tonight, it's a shame our back 4 has to play so deep to compensate for his lack of pace though, it gives the top sides a lot more room to work with.

Gary Cahill, the one that backs away. He can't read the game, nothing else to be said really.

The more I see of this lad, the more I like him, lightning quick, strength, power, infinite amounts of skill and technique, was directly involved in the second goal. Very positive performance from him, I think he deserves a starting spot, specially against the smaller sides as we attack more.

Worked very hard for the team, barely had any game time to make an impact though.

Tilted the game back to our hands, he broke up play, sprayed it around as though he was Zidane, superb display and the shirt from now on should be his.

Not his best of games, but absolutely made up for his goal! Great poacher.

Great first half, created a boat load of chances that were missed, free kick aside, decent in the second.

Missed a sitter in the first half but never for a second did he hide. His pace is back, his game is back. Top notch performance!

Man of the match by a country mile! Just watch your cards.

Out and out leader in the final minutes. Boss again from Ash!

Completely disrupted our side.

Willian is lightning quick.

Mikel is playing well.
