Mou recently said in an interview that he criticize his players in public to motivate them, some players needs this. Schurrle hasn't been impressive since the start, except for 1-2 moments. So I think it's good to criticize him, he also looks like a person who needs this kind of treatment.

Our 6 games in November: QPR (h) Maribor (a) Liverpool (a) (Intn'l break) West brom (h) Schalke (a) Sunderland (a)

We are linked with Pique for £24m, hope it is a joke. http://metro.co.uk/2014/10/29/chelsea-line-up-barcelonas-gerard-pique-as-long-term-john-terry-replacement-4926156/

I was more talking about our strongest line up facing strong sides in Europe. In smaller games I like Oscar too but in big games I don't think Oscar and Cesc should start together. Ramires (or another great b2b) is a must and so is Cesc. I don't want to speak about potential because that is all speculation, you never know how a player will develop. In this moment Willian is better than Oscar.

Nothing wrong with the length of your posts btw, just said it because it is your trademark. Same goes for you, if you really can't stand those people, just ignore them then.

Lol Drogba 3 goals in a row

-best player of swiss league -young and talented -Won't complain much with limited playing time (not that I know) -Left footed attacking mid, our only one -Superb Pace, dribbling skills -scores goals (check his stats for Egypt and Basel)

Let him sign that contract ASAP before he changes his mind.

Salah was our best player, yes he had 2-3 bad shots but also created chances for others and was dangerous with his pace.

Cech!!

They play 3-4-1-2

Think Mou wants to kill the match ASAP and then give the youngsters some time, that's why he started with DD instead of Izzy. Last year we were knocked out against Sunderland at this stage, don't think Mou wants that again.

Wow Drogba..didn't see that coming.

This is a forum where fans discuss about players, matches, tactics, transfer targets and more. Why do you think there are so many different threads? Yes, to let the fans share their opinions and discuss about different topics. There is no need to use the tone and harsh words you've used. You always write long posts here on TC and it's not like you never criticize our own players.

Oscar was not in the game, he got a silly yellow too for kicking Smalling when the ball was already played. (Some fans even said it could've been a red card, i'm not sure. Bringing Mikel would release pressure from both Matic and Cesc in the midfield. Cesc could attack more, Matic could press higher and help in attack (what he did) because Mikel changed into the main CDM. Also, the flow of the game went into a direction that a red card was a surely coming. Mou saw this, that's why he subbed so early.

Schurrle is a good winger with pace, good runs, crosses and can finish. Cesc loves to play with players like him. Salah has the same skillset and is better in dribbling but in terms of strength, not at the EPL level yet. Salah should work out too, like Schurrle did last year. Both are good to be our counter attacking weapons. Willian is good/reasonable at RW but is better at the #10 position where Oscar plays now, Willian played for Shaktar mainly as their number ten and was superb, attacking wise. I would like to see Willian start some games as #10 with Hazard an Schurrle/Salah as the wingers, like last year against Stoke at home where he was the Motm. Oscar is the true weak link in our team IMO, he is ok against small sides but in big games he is average. Yes, ok against Arsenal he was ok in helping the defence. But is that the only thing he can offer? With Cesc we already have a player like Oscar, but Cesc is much and much better. Oscar should be benched in big games and only play against small sides. If we really can get Reus, Oscar should be sold. With the 6 attacking mids above mentioned, this would be superb: Costa Hazard-Willian-Reus Matic Cesc In bigger games we could do this: Costa Hazard Cesc Reus/Willian Matic Ramires/Khedira (if he comes)

"People aren't interested in personal matters, but Pep got it wrong and I'm surprised by his comments," Vilanova told AS. "No one on the board used my illness to attack him. The club tried to help me as much as possible."He visited me once in New York when I'd just arrived, but during my recovery from the operation I was there for two months and I didn't see him. He's my friend and I needed him, but he wasn't there for me. I would have done things differently. I won't say anything else about this." http://www.theguardian.com/football/2013/jul/16/barcelona-tito-vilanova-pep-guardiola Maybe Jose0711 used some harsh words to describe what Pep did, but it's true what he said. He abandoned Tito while he needed him. Pep is a manager I never want to see at Chelsea, the guy is such a fake gentlemen and control freak.

Ramos best defender instead of luis godin and miranda, also BS Modric best midfielder, that's ok Best attacker: Ronaldo, Costa should've won it. This confirms it, it's just all commercial bs.

Yep, thibo, eden, costa all selected!

The difference is Modric, Kroos has Modric next to him who can control a game too. Cesc had Oscar...If Kroos played for us yesterday, the difference wouldn't be big with Cesc.
