Need to score more big game decisive goal, one goal in a final against Madrid in 2013 Copa after all these years is not enough imo. If he wants to be remember as someone like Drogba or better he needs to deliver on these big occasions like the big man did himself.

Unless he scores like 20-30 goals I think he is still done here. The thing with Mou is that once he doesn't fancy someone that person is gone for good, I haven't seen anything else in his career so far that might disagree. Balotelli, Pepe, Casillas...etc he never seems to make up with anyone. Even if he does the above the only reason he might come back is if THE BOARD FORCE him back. Doubt Jose will admit he made a mistake and sell/bench Cuadrado or something.

Its actually worrying I am serious. If he turns out to be another De Bruyne think I am gonna lose my mind haha

1 less than Cuadrado the whole of this season...

Yep conceding 4 goals in last 17 games is a fluke

Tonight is basically a carbon copy of our away game at City, albeit more dramatic. This is what happens at the very top of counter attacking game which Mourinho hope we do every single time, but 80% of the time it will end up looking more like bus parking aka PSG away, Atletico away than this. This works best if the home team likes to go forward all the time, as evident today and us against City last season when they were naive.

What if you have them(Hazard, Fabregas) but still decide to park it anyway? only at Chelsea hehe

Disappearing into wilderness from Jan onward

Playing well until being injured against Barca a few weeks ago. He will be back soon

You just basically confirmed his point...that Fab is at his best when WE ARE PLAYING WELL. Against the likes of Everton, PSG...etc where we needs a leader and someone who can rise above everyone else on the pitch he is no where to be seen... Lets see in the return leg against PSG and CO final this weekend to see how he does. If his past is anything to go by he will large be ineffective in both games.

That awkward moment when myth becomes fact...

Comparing Koke to Oscar is like comparing Messi to Higuain...both are great but one is CLEARLY ABOVE THE OTHER. Koke is one of the most hard working mid in world football atm, he isn't gonna disappear from Feb on ward like Oscar as well, he was one of the best player on the pitch for Atletico in CL final last year. There is a reason why Barca was willing to pay 50m release clause last summer but he didn't leave because he loves Atletico and signed a new contract.

Nope lost it now I think, Turkey then Dutch which he came within 1 match of being sacked/resigned. 2009 seems light years away for him now.

It all started with that miss against us which made him change his style

Meh if it was us I would expect a hardcore defensive performance aiming for a 0-0 at home. Not saying it is the right approach but against Barca, Bayern or Real I think we should do it. Any other team like PSG...etc are unacceptable though.

Thinking about it, Del Bosque is the best manager in today's game with almost no flaw. He has won everything at club and international level. He isn't involved with controversy, unfairly sacked by Real 10-15 years ago. The only tarnish is the 5-1 defeat to Netherlands but with Robben having the game of his life, RVP scoring one of the best goal of his career and every manager is allowed one of those day at least once.

Too much of a choker lost at least 4 finals if my memory is not wrong.

Mourinho=too negative Guardiola=too obsessed with possesion Pellegrini=too attacking Ancelotti=too nice Simeone=too negative sometime+ too crazy LVG=too idiot Rodger=too naive and shit Klopp= too weak to stop a crisis Wenger= too stubborn Is there any perfect manager in world football

SCORED IN EVERY SINGLE GAME SINCE COMING BACK, yep every single game. Now he will cost 50-60m.

Guys go have a look on MU forums, they are practically dreaming of him become their new manager in the future along with Pep... It is very funny, such is the state of football fan

Don't know exactly but I remember assist to Hazard goal against Villa, 89th min winner against Everton...etc I agree he has been impotent for the majority of this season but ever since the Cuadrado rumor started and he came to the club he has been on top form both offensively and defensively.

Swap with Varane will be fine for me

We can't appeal because no matter what happens before in theory it is a sending off, you can't do that to an other player. Best we can hope for is for that dude to get banned as well, but why do we care about that...

Willian= the best Chelsea player in the last 2 months... For the 3rd year running...

The mentions of Ake in this thread is very funny, Football Manager like. It is gonna be Fabregas and Ramires obviously or Fabregas and Mikel.
