Willian played a good first half. Linked up with Oscar on an occasion. Had a decent shot at the goal and another blocked. Moved forward a lot and retrieved to cover when defending. Room for improvement? Yes. Bad player? I have to disagree

Thank you

Buddy, there is a a difference between being physical and going to hurt people for the sake of hurting people. I don't really get what you are debating here . You think Mourinho tolerates such behavior that will cost him to lose a player for three important matches?

Lol, you can get a yellow card by wasting time and miss the next game for tactical reasons and fixture situations but how can you compare this incident to the ones you mentioned buddy?

Totally agree with you. I think it is the debate if it was intentional or not

I agree with you. But when you lose form you don't get it back all of a sudden. I think he looked better this game than the previous 5-6 games. Still not up to expectations but never the less positive signs

Saw that in your crystal ball?

But such behavior is his fault. Mourinho will not tell him get yourself banned for 3 matches because you are frustrated. Now Mourinho has to rely on Lampard who is old, Mikel who is very defensive and Luiz is hurt. I agree with you though that his set of attributes are the one Mourinho is looking for

My friend, i don't know if you know this, but when you run full speed you can jump higher and for a longer distance than when you are running slow. I remember that from the olympics. Buddy it was a bad intentional challenge and it was very clear.

Mate, you are not falling from a 3 story building. Players know how to take falls. I will be really surprised if Ramires couldn't jump over a low tackle. Especially that AL Ahmadi went for the ball so his legs weren't that high

You don't reach a ball by stamping on but with the tip of your foot. And yes you jump over the legs. All players know that and do that. It was very deliberate. Having said that I think he played a very good game as a whole excluding that incident.

that is not even a freaking yellow card......worst officiating i have seen in a while

Good first half. Most team was on. Good to see Oscar getting part of his form back. Willian was really good. Torres didn't seem like he came back from an injury. Good build ups. Should capitalize in the second half

I have been hearing a lot of complaints about Salah. I will try to be as objective as possible.Salah Played 3 games, less than 15 mins against Newcastle, then he played in the 88th min against West Brom and 45 mins in the second half against City (Which the entire team played a very poor match ). In which game exactly did you fully judge Salah and compare him with Moses or Marin or any other player. Not to mention that he transferred to a team with no preseason to get to mix with the rest of the guys, new system, and a different league level compared to the Swiss (with respects to the Swiss league ). I think such conclusion would be ( no offense) very premature. Definitely he has to adjust. Definitely he has to blend more with the rest of the team and establish would people call team chemistry. He can only get that with playtime and since the team is in a very tight spot right, Jose can't afford to take such risks. If I am not mistaken, he said that he was building a new team and Salah true season will be next year. Salah is a great talent but he also has to work hard. Whether he comes through or not, whether he succeeds with Jose or not, whether he becomes a Chelsea standard starter/sub or not is another question. He might succeed or fail, but we can only judge objectively after at least a season or decent amount of game play. I am not a fortune teller and cannot say he will succeed or fail. However, from the games he played against Chelsea and Spurs in the Europa league and the games he played against Chelsea in the UCL I think in my humble opinion that he his a very good promising talent with more than just pace. As far as the bench is concerned, again I would really disagree with you. A proper back up for Hazard will not be on the bench. He will definitely be starting along side with Hazard. Mikel offers certain options for Jose, Ba did not get enough games to be judges adequately, Torres had his ups and downs like Eto. Oscar had his ups and downs, Willian had his ups and downs, Schurrle has been a good replacement and is on the rise, Luiz was did a good job when Terry was out. You look again at the age of the midfielders. They are very young. Not to mention they are very talented and have huge potential. All of them will go through the phase of inconsistency. That is why most players get there best forms and maturity levels at 25/26. Some are exceptions. Pele, Messi Maradona, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo are few of the exceptions. I think patience is key when judging an entire bench or any player whether he is a starter or not. Because in such manner most players will be transferred after half a season. You can also look at the current results of Chelsea. We are on the top of the table. We might win it if we keep our victories and City stumbles in one match. We are more likely to advance in the UCL, where the other top English teams have failed ( with the exception of ManU who still have a chance). This was all done with young players, some of which are new and a new system and a new coach. Chelsea are already winners mate, and with next season people adapting more to each other and adapting more to Jose's system, there are much better chances for silverware than the one we had at the start of this season. After summer's preseason and and additions during that time a proper judgement on those current players should be made, in my opinion, by the end of next season. ( with the exceptions of the veterans who had enough time to be properly judged by Jose).

I missed the first half. Where Hull that bad or just unlucky?

Alexandria, Egypt

Hell no.. But I hate them like one. LOOOL

A Madrid fan I take it ?

Well we can debate his form with Barca, and I agree he played a very average game tonight but he is not a disgrace mate

????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOOOL

They still had the best players in almost every single position. As far as Alaba is concerned, I totally respect your opinion. I think he his good but I still think there are better players and he is not the best. I feel the same about Dante. By all means they are amongst the top but they are not the best. I am sure you can name more players in those positions that are INDIVIDUALLY better. But hey, still respect your opinion mate

I don't think Boeteng, Dante and Alaba are the best individually. But as far as team work is concerned they have great chemistry and are tactically aware of each others' position.

I guess I explained it poorly with regards to Real Madrid. I was referring to Madrid when they had Zidane, Roberto Carlos, Figo, Ronaldo, Raul, Cannavaro and the rest of the team. Individually they were the best squad at the time. To me a dream team, however they failed with every coach they had, no matter the name of the coach and experience. Barca dominated them. My point is that a great squad with poor management most likel will bring no results because of the players' major ego and expectation that the rest of their teammates would adapt to their style. Lahm is my was always my second favor RB after Micon. I agree with you he hasn't improved under Pepe but again he is a well established player. I don't know if Bayern is less threatening. City and Arsenal suffered in all of their first games against them. When the results didn't mean much in the group stage, Bayern was relaxed and even last night they got what they wanted with minimal effort
