Someone once said the best way to play against a Mourinho team is to give them the ball. 1 shot on target tonight. No attacking patterns, no imagination. Just a hapless, disjointed "footballing" performance. . Still somewhat surprising how a manager with such limited attacking insight won so many trophies. Maybe because he was the only big manager who had no shame parking the bus with multimillion pound squads, sometimes against inferior opposition. His star players have been carrying him for years now. Drogba, Sneijder, Ronaldo, Hazard. He's finished at the highest level. A chequebook manager. A glorified Tony Pulis.

Hopefully that goal coerces him to start Rooney against Swansea.

Fluke long range rubbish.

Jose doing his famous trick of averaging roughly 0-1 shot on target in 90 mins? Were are the attacking patterns? Were is the movement off the ball? Nowhere to be seen. He doesn't have a special player like Eden to save his ass anymore. No Ronaldo to score goals for him every game either.

We have to restrict their right side, that's were Everton are very dangerous. Preferably we do that by Eden and Alonso forcing Bolasie and Coleman to defend. They are also going to miss Gueye, so that's an area of the pitch we can exploit.

Quality video. Just a reminder that Eden despite being only 25 has been a great player for a long while now. As I watch that and harken back to his earliest times here, it's interesting how he has changed as a player.

Him and Coutinho imo. But I give Eden the edge because the Brazilian has been playing under a more stable system. We had to change our system and some personnel.

Pep is an unbelievable manager. The way he turned it around in the 2nd half, his team are actually playing football with Barcelona and playing them off the park. De Bruyne is world class.

Can someone post a gif of that face he pulled at full-time? That was hilarious.

He looks unstoppable playing large portions of the game as our most advanced attacking player.

I'm rewatching the game laughing my ass off now! This MF really had Lingaard and Rashford playing as auxiliary fullbacks for the majority of the 1st half! Imagine the gall to do that in a club with the prestige of Man United. I don't even think he was that brazen here at Chelsea with his insane defensive (cowardly) "tactics". It's like he doesn't even care anymore. I wonder what Alex Ferguson thought of that cowardly shitshow.

Nothing I said was false though. It's not a "moan" if it's true.

Apparently, this was his WORST ever Premier League result as well. ROFL!!

LOVE HIM!!!!!!

As if we needed any further proof he doesn't know how to coach attacking football, now we see it with another team. Everyone is catching on now. I heard Carragher insunuating as much. He looked like an imbecile with that shite he was trying to pull with Conte. He could just have shook hands and said nothing. But, no, no. Jose, classless to the very end.

He's been a godsend. Slots in perfectly into our system. Teams are seriously struggling to contain his strong running, pace and skill on that right flank.

Thought he was poor today. His lack of technique and football intelligence lets him (and us) down too many times. He's a good scorer, obviously, but you need a bit more from your striker on a more consistent basis.

I don't think many people were dumb to judge a player without playing a single game. Every reasonable CFC fan was calling for a change to the LB position and Alonso has been superb. Reminds me of Maicon.

Unbelievable performance from Matic today, only bettered by Hazard. Bossed the midfield both defensively and offensively and had Pogba in his back pocket all game. Was like a Rolls-Royce. Super.

Fucking son of a b*** is just beyond classless. Probably moaning about Conte pumping up the crowd. Who cares anyway, the Overrated One got crushed.

UNBELIEVABLE PERFORMANCE!!! Watching it with some blue lads, everyone here is buzzing. Mourinho being a cunt as always. What was the joker saying to Conte?

Oh, what an assist! Where are those who were saying Moses is nothing more than a bench guy? He's been superb all season.

Again, Costa. Simple pass. This is the area of his game he needs to seriously improve to go from being a very good player to a great player.
