It's not only the results, its the style of play. Roman has always dreamed, envision for a specific style of play which Jose is the completely opposite....

What are the odds Mourinho gets sacked if we dont win the PL or even finish 3rd...... I mean Roman must of known that Mourinho was always going to play a certain way and not deliver his sexy football that he wants, so, this shouldn't be a surprise. However, the recent criticism from the outside might propel Roman to make a decision sooner than later in regards to Jose.

I don't really fault Hazard, however, the fans on this board I do fault. Hazard was at fault for his mistakes, however, it seems to certain fans he cannot do any wrong and it clear from any wrongdoing. His manager gives him instructions and he should follow through. Obviously, he is our primary attacker, so he should be given less of the defensive work, however, like OZil who got ripped apart by the same fans here for constantly leaving his man in arsenal games, hazard should get some criticism... Also, his quotes about mourinho tactics are not really much of a surprise. Why would any attacker want to spend half the game chasing and defending players. I never really enjoy Mourinho tactics, however, he is the manager and set the team up to win even if its 0-0 and pks...

Gotze won't leave bayern, especially when both robben and ribery are 30 or so. We're better off aiming for vidal/cavani, because gotze is near impossible to get, especially this summer.

Title contention is a must, however, City team is fantastic this season and will be better next season (unless they get the hammer from FFP). City should be the only team I can accept doing better than us next season and if Arsenal actually buys marque players in the summer. But not United, Liverpool or the Spurs.

That's my point. Half of them valuate Lukaku at like 15m and they watch him week in and out, not just MOTD

I was reading the everton board and they posed a question whether they would purchase Lukaku for 20m or so, and it was split 50/50 from everton fans..

Semifinals (CL) and final for either Carling or FA Cup At least top 2 in the league. However, at least 1 trophy

I really don't understand why people can't see this. Willian plays the way Mourinho wants him to, obviously, he's not restricted completely, however, he is to a degree.

One thing I find funny is how the same users that have been criticizing Oscar for such a long time are the same ones that defend Hazard during this time. All I know is if Oscar said this, all hell would of broken loose.

. He was a weak link - said no one ever... Thiago absence didnt cause spain to win 0 games in the olympics, yet every team he has been on they have won the championship. i highly doubt you watch the u21 champ if you dont think thiago was the best player on spain. Anyways, Thiago was fantastic for Munich this season. It's more of a knee-jerk reaction after atletico beat us that now Koke is better than thiago. You do know what Thiago was running Munich for a good chunk of the season until his injuries... Anyways, back to Koke, I would love to have him here playing next to Matic or in the 4-3-3.

Jt sure does a lot of running in games. Luiz barely played this season and Oscar has played more games than Willian this season. And willian wasn't on the confed. team nor was Ramires. The truth is you expected Mata output from Oscar under Mourinho, which was never going to happen. You also probably don't understand all these small injuries starting catching up to Oscar now and he has taken himself out for the world cup as insurance (potentially).

Meaning Modric and Xabi.

Thiago has already been part of three significant spanish international teams. Spanish u17 and u21 2x already. he has won three titles in the starting lineups and captained the most recent u21 team to the championship. You know what team he wasn't on due to injury, the same u23 team that had Martinez, de gea, mata, isco, montoya, herrara and koke were all on and didn't advance past the group stages in the olympics. Thiago is Spain future.

lol, outfield player. I bet Neuer puts in more miles than JT does and JT doesn't run anywhere close to the three brazilians on Chelsea. Looking at the madrid side, none of their midfield team is relevant to their national squad setup and they play in a less physical league. Oscar has been playing since the Olympics nonstop and he's built like a twig, so yes, he does get the benefit of the doubt.

Success in terms of results. Failure in terms of offensive philosophy. Success in terms of mentality/mindset. Success in transfer market.

I hope Willian/Bernard/Lucas drops Hulk in the world cup. I can't stand watching Hulk play

We need is different than what Jose wants... Jose will never sell ramres unless we get vidal.

I would look into ligue 1 for replacements for ramires if you guys insist so much. they have a lot of psychical and athletic cms with better technical ability.

lol, being better than the spainard makes you world class now? lol

I love how Matic all of a sudden rose to world class status in the likes of Bayern's cm, Madrid's cm and Barca cms... Chelsea tinted glasses at its best.

u21 championship. Go ask anyone in Spain who is better, thiago or koke. Thiago is pretty much better in everything minus long passes/set pieces. This is the same kid that broke into Barcelona so called greatest team with the greatest midfield as a teenager. The same kid that Barcelona fans thought was better than Arsenal's Cesc at that time and captain of Spain u21 champ team.

Haha. When Martinez-Bastian smashed everyone last season including Juventus, now all of a sudden they are not good? Also, Thiago is better than Koke.

?

it's about time Real made the finals after all their galacticos signings. i kind of feel bad for bayern because with pep as their manager and their impressive team, they will be expected to win the treble every season.
