It takes two to party. Last year if Courtois said I 'm ok, then both he and the physio (Eva) were at fault. Then his ear bled but it was from laceration as was proven and not from inside his ear. The entire episode calls for a severe reprimand to all bodies concerned but it was made into Nuremberg trial.

Makes sense. Can't walk in without the referee calling them. That means red cards all over the place. Also the players don't do it if their team presses for a goal - unless it's for real. Also if Jose had any objections -valid or otherwise- he was not even in a position to make them known to the two doctors ! Just look at the vid. It more and more borders with the absurd and a total cancellation of all actions taken is due.
-
Now after those who liked Eva in facebook.
-
Pretty little we can do except suck it and see. In GR the supporters clubs (gate 7 - gate 13 - original gate) would have settled this in a matter of hours. This is one instance of superiority of GR fans.
-
About the incident, alright Jose thinks no treatment is needed. But did he even say that to the two medics, who would therefore be disobeying his order by walking in ? No because he was fifteen meters away from them and looking the other way ! So in that interview -effectively- he says "those two should have been telepaths and they are n't".
-
Mourinho was left to his own devices. If he too starts using the twitter, he gets the sack. before the fans even realize it. The Eva incident was overblown and is the result of nervousness all over.

It's the other man who ran into the pitch like I said before. An important thing is what was the referee doing at the time and also consider this: We are pressing to regain the lead, we 're not ahead and try to hold on, or at any rate waste time. One of our players goes down. That means -more likely than not- real injury, does n't it ? So Eden Hazard does n't appreciate the game either ? It's kind of crazy - reminds me of an incident in a friend's house. I look for coffee - it's gone. He says "oh sorry mates must have ran out, what a pity". After a while I open a cupboard and there it was. So I say "here it is, coffee", expecting a pat in the back for finding it. But he goes paddy, the other one and says "listen you and everyone, never open the cupboards in my house !". Then Eva makes that twit, the party political broadcast of hers. That too was a little unfriendly, coming at a time we are all under stress as well. My verdict is a four week ban - half rations. The club's court marshall verdict is too much,
-
I know the story like the back of my palm, cherchez la femme. There is the flimsiest of chances Eva made a mistake. So what ? The effect on the outcome was zero.
-
That will cost 25,000 season tickets to the club. Jose pls take it easy, even if Eva made a mistake. But how ? What about the ref ? He is supposed not to allow medics who decide to enter the pitch on their own. Is n't he ? He did say "come in" quite obviously.
-
I expect a Liverpool - Besiktas score.
-
We were pressing and she helped them save time - or so it appeared. But are n't the players of the attacking teams getting injured as well in this game, just as well as the bus-parking players ? Mou could be justifired only if he knew the ref too was cheating and not keeping extra time properly. In football's ancient days I 've seen monstrous time wastings. 30 minutes back passing to the goalkeeper and the referee bowing his whistle at the 82nd minute. I don't think it's of relevence now.
-
City is at evens. That shows respect for Mou.
-
Willian is the only one who plays football besides Eden. While admittedly he does n't have the body type he is better than most. Scored the second goal against Sw. and if it counted as o.g. it's against the rule.
-
So you say ve are vinning ze war.

Arsenal is a cure for insomnia. I used to live just outside the Highbury - Roseleigh avenue. Never walked in.
-
Create them for me ?
-
I 'm afraid we are being let down and Jose looked forward to a Diego system but he is not getting it. That hamstring needs some drastic treatment or it's a countdown to the exit. Of course as Diego is already one of the long series of loved Chelsea players, it's sad to have to criticize him.
-
We played football the year before, 13-14, bar some heinous situations towards the end. Last year we did ok -without opposition- but after February only the results were satisfactory. Now it looks we have problems. There is no fluency whatsoever. It's not that we conceded two to a good team, or even a lucky team if you want to call the Swans lucky. The buildup was non existent. Our two goals were flukes.
-
It did n't look as if we were playing with 10 men - if you forget that we allowed them to created chances. There were some worrying defensive mistakes before and after but up front in was Gobi desert. The two goals we scored were among the most fortuitious we ever scored. Costa was good for a beach team, Iva poor but the man is not a playmaker. Although it's not as if we did n't fluff any last season -e.g. Burnley- It's getting worrying.
-
Twelve against ten.
-
We were the best. City were poor, Liverpool vanished and the others did not make any real progress. What you 'd rather say is that outside us, it was a bad year for the premier league overall, as the European results also showed. Complaints began after January or thereabouts, even though the first place looked secure. But instead of some improvement we remain stationary. Mybe Cuadrado's was signed to add the element of speed but this man looks scared when sent out there.
-
Ummm. All I can really say about pre-seasons I have seen in past years is that sometimes the visitors don't try. So it looks good for the home team but it really is n't. Other than that they provide a certain glimpse of things to come. Last year we fluffed against Werder, in Bremen, but otherwise the signs were positive. In Greece we more or less don't have any serious pre-season friendlies any longer. In year's past I recall Tigana's Bordeaux, QPR (strong then), Dukla Prague and others.

That "I may live in ... but my heart belongs to ..." t-shirt is utter popycock. Thank heavens winter is coming. Why not "I am ... but my heart belongs to ..." or plainly "Ruritanian Halifax Town fan" ? The t-shirt makers did not want to make it look as if the xxx national who supports team yyy may also live somewhere else and not in his home country (UKIP friendly).

Look, the writing is on the wall. I cannot express optimism and most certainly I cannot suggest that the team is in motion for higher things this season. Be that as it may - we stick together in championship division too. What I really don't like is the cockiness of Jose, dictated by the cockiness of Roman quite obviously. They had better come forward and say "listen folks we are trying something new this season because we can't afford transfers". I have seen this kind of attitude many times and it's bad for the football clubs concerned, it's bad for the psychology of the fans and it's ultimately bad for the image of the directors-managers too. Is n't it much better to make a honest approach ? We are what, 25,000 managers writing in these boards. That's one too many really, but we are not the proverbial Sid and Doris Bonkers. We know some footie.

Maybe we will lose some matches, because the opposition is lucky or because they get to play brilliant. But it's the performences that we look into. Against PSG and against Arsenal we were horrible. Against Barcelona better, against the American team ... never mind.
