Fuck me, Vardy injured? What a blow that would be, but of course against us he scored a beauty, can't make this shit up. I think Vary will play, he's a 'hard' man, he can do it, at least i hope so. The tinkerman has to show what he's made of, i'm totally with you, can't stand Arsenal being the top dog, yes, good for Cech, but that's not enough.

Yes, no one can complain about the money. I'm a bit confused, was it really pounds? I thought Euros, but that would be still okay, imo. There seems to be a disagreement within the media, i think. Anyways, i don't want to be a penny pincher... http://www.skysports.com/football/player/15868/david-luiz

Can Leicester City beat the Mancs? I'm hoping for it, but not so sure, would settle for a draw, City's attacking line is fuckin' scary, imo. I'm already looking forward to the game, one of the better things to do on a Tuesday evening...

Can't hate him, good guy, always doing some crazy stuff.

A lot of things are important. Yes, the money was the good, the atmosphere great, sure. But other clubs could have payed him more, the french league is a lot easier, but in end he came back to us, i honour it because one can't buy such a thing. Anyway, i don't condemn Jose Mourinho if he takes the United Job. Thats all. So long!

Even Terry played for another English Club. After Madrid Mourinho could have gone everywhere but he chose to come back to us. But when things got tough, we showed no loyalty whatsoever and kicked him out, even a dog deserves better, imo. Mourinho comitted himself to us, he wanted to stay here long-term, yes he made mistakes too but after the dismissal i can't blame the man for going to another English Club. He would have never left us... [emoji30] [emoji25]

I would have liked seeing more of Loftus-Cheek, especially during the pre-season. I criticized Mourinho for denying the boy more playing time. During the season, i thought that during the crisis having more experience on the field would be better, that means no Loftus-Cheek... You're right that i often tried to find common sense why Ivanovic was given another opportunity and bringing up arguments why not Baba, i remember stating match fitness and other reasons. Finally Baba was rewarded some playing time, Loftus-Cheek not. But it should have been more! Some time ago i stated that i'm a so called 'Mourinhonista', despite of other fans i had and still have love for the man, i truly believed that there must be reasons why a highly decorated man like Jose Mourinho chooses to field the 'old guard', he's a specialist, he knows more than me and i have always been in his corner, no matter what! Time passes quickly, we have seen more and more, but we're still not playing more convincingly, imo. Something has to change, NOW. I was sad about Jose Mourinho's dismissal, but i get that it didn't happen just because of the current moods of Abramovic or Emenalo, no, the style of play has been piss poor so far and Jose Mourinho should have played more youth players and changed the fullbacks. That's on him! I'll give you and others that... I wasn't happy about Guus taking over, didn't like what he did with Holland and what exactly has he done in the last years? I'm not a child, i give Guus chances, maybe you and others don't believe me, but i can't change that! But i won't cut him as much slack as i did for Mourinho, he's not my man, i have no love for him, but i will give him credit if he turns this shit around. Yes, i do think that some of our players are fed up by Mourinho's antics, that's on both parties, if Hiddink fixes it, he deserves credit, imo! After Mourinho was gone, i considered that maybe Mourinho was a bit stuck in his idea of the ideal linup and style of play. I hoped that Guus would do things differently, that he chooses to field guys like Loftus-Cheek, Baba, Kenedy and maybe put Musonda on the bench. I thought that he was a different man compared to Jose Mourinho, things aren't looking this way, Ramires was substituted in, but maybe i'm too harsh and things will change but need more time. I didn't call for his head, i pointed the finger at some things which i thought could have been handled differently. Are we only speaking about the league games? What about the first game of the season against Swansea, what about the win against West Brom? That counter attack against 'the hawthorns' was very well executed, imo. I'm not sure that one can clearly say that the game against Sunderland was the best so far, for me that's controversial, but yes, i respect your opinion. Matic should have buried that chance, that cost us big time, but he still brings some good things to the table. He ist still a constat force and always driving forward, Mikel or Ramires can't do it like that, i have to give it to him. For me he wasn't that great, but i 'whoscored' is on your side, so there you have your support. I was too harsh on him! OveralI, i smell schadenfreude, some of you don't want to talk about the game, no, they try to find contradictions in my previous arguments, what's the objective? To make a fool of myself, try to discredit my statements and most importantly brand me as a hypocrite? Maybe i'm, maybe i'm not, i tried to explain my view, is it that bad? I say sorry if it's that the case, but it wasn't my intention. Regards!

Zaha will run riot against us, he's coming good. http://www.whoscored.com/News/xtvue8mtz0abbhkznfumua/Show/Player-Focus-Zaha-Re-emerging-as-Key-Palace-Performer-Under-Pardew

I tried to find common sense in Jose's actions, sometimes it was really difficult, i give you that! Jose has to take his fair share of the blame. I'm not in denial! But then we sacked him and hired another coach, i was hopeful, thought now we field some youth, try to score one more instead of trying to defend. But nothing changes, no one has a clue what to do. Have you seen how Matic tried to score? Even my dad who doesn't like Chelsea pitied Matic, maybe the fail of the season so far, why did he choose to hit it with so much power? He has been piss poor so far, but yet another chance to play, can't believe it. Is Loftus-Cheek really that bad? He should give up on his career, if that's true. Loftus-Cheek who is a huge talent and tries to make an impact, but bringing him on in injury time is a fuckin' disgrace, only here for time wasting or what? Some of his mates were finished, take a look at Hazard, but Guus did jack shit against it! We should have stood by Jose, that was his worst season in his career, but at least he has a proven track record in the past. Should have ordered him to give up on the season and play the goddamn youth, but no, always hire another manager and let the players off the hook. Anyway, think we disagree another time. But that's how it is... Cheers.

For this bloody mess we fired our Mourinho, who is a fan like each of us of our beloved club. Can't believe it! Bringing on Loftus-Cheek for less than a minute is a bloody joke. Hazard was finished since the 70th minute, no changes? Why, because we only had youth on the bench? Playing without a striker, no central point, that did work so well in the past, did it? Playing Ivanovic instead of Baba? Why not subbing off Oscar earlier? So many mistakes, i'm really sad, one point is too little! For me, United were the better team, absolute disasterous, horrible, words fail me...

I thought after we sacked Jose everything would get getter, members tried to explain to me that we could pull off a Monchengladbach like Schubert did. Horrible first half, no style of play whatsover. Why did we go with Ivanovic, Matic and others instead of some youth? One positive thing: United didn't score, maybe we can punish them in the second half, one can hope, that never dies.

Maybe he will sue you... At least someone is going to receive a letter.

It's totally biased! I'm not denying the special skills of Neymar, Sterling, Pogba and so on, they have shown more, but i really think that the players from my selection can make it big time! I'm not buying the jerseys from some superstars and therefore i'm not lining up the likes of already established guys like Pogba or others. For me, there is no fun in it, everyone can see their abilities, imo. Bertrand Traoré was one of the best players in the Eredivisie, imo, i think he's able to pull off a Martial, sometimes the guys need more time like Depay, but one has to try, otherwise you'll never know! I really hope that Guus will reward playing time to RLC, Musonda, Kenedy and Traoré. At least some of them can come in during the second half. But they have to play, otherwise it's useless for them to hang around and decrease their developments. I only watch a handful of matches every week, i don't know every player, i think there exist cleary better ones in some positions, but footie is just a hobby for me, i'm not claiming to be an expert. Regards!

Saw the Arsenal match with my dad: the goonettes were absolutely clueless, no chance whatsoever. This Flamini dude.... Was a bit surprised seeing Tadic on the bench (Fantasy Footie ) but he got his assist, i can live with it.

Had to say something about it and got a bit too emotional, i think. It's all good for now.

First things first, thank you for your response! I just came back from church; going there every year with my family. For me, it's all about family, i'm a pacifist and i would never kick one family member out of home. I agree with you that sometimes there has to be a punishment after a crime, especially if we are speaking about a severe one. But i'm against the capital punishment, 'Zolayes' didn't get a termporary ban, it was immediately game over. He wasn't even given the chance to say goodbye, imo. Yes, i don't know the history and i have to give your team the benefit of a doubt, maybe there were temporory bans, but it's sad to kick one out, especially at CHRISTMAS! We can't reach an agreement, different worlds, imo. Nex thing i have a problem with is privacy! Yes, i wrote an letter to one of your staff, but i didn't allow you to mention it in public. That's not okay, imo! We don't like each other very much, you're right. How come? Since you said to me said i didn't understand your post and didn't want to explain it either, i try to stay away from you, because i think it's trouble for both of us. Yes, it doesn't work so well, does it?! But i try my best for a new start, i hope we can do it. Thank you for letting me off the hook for some 'childish vendettas' in the past, i was out of line, i should have received warning points, but that's it! Furthermore your backing against the allegations for using different accounts were quite nice, appreciated! I made my points, but i don't think that either of us can convince the other one, so thats it. In the end, i stood up for one of my mates, i wanted to make this point! If you or the stuff think it's best for all of us that i stay away, i will do it, but please let me know, because i write messages to some of the members and it would be sad, if that's taken away from me. I don't need a ban, only a message backed by the majority of the staff! Anyways, i wish you and your family a nice Christmas evening, for me and my family it's time for the distribution of presents. See you!

I feel sorry for him. Sometimes he could be a bit of a bully, but he knew when to back off, imo. He had been active for ~6 years, for me, he was part of the TC family. A banning is never ever a nice thing, especially at Christmas, it's over the top and not walking along with the brotherly love, imo. Anyways, i'm already under suspicion of being a moaner so i stop right here. Regards!

IT'S CHRISTMAS AT COBHAM!

Yes, i would prefer that too. But i don't want to take away what's very important to Jose Mourinho: being a football manager. I think he would like to stay in England, maybe a smaller club would be better for us, but a man with his credentials will go to a top club, that where he belongs, imo. Lampard went straight to City, Cech to Arsenal, they all want to work, no, sitting on the bench isn't the same, i respect their decision. They gave their all for our club, they aren't slaves, in the future they can do whatever they want, that won't change the past and the great time we had, imo. Agree to disagree, mate. Cheers.

If he manages United, it's just a job for him, Chelsea will always be his number one, but the board sacked him. Yes, i would prefer seeing him in Spain, i need a La Liga subscription asap. Hope he can break Barca, again.

I fully understand Jose. He isn't running away from his demons, he has to make it right at the end of the day. Hope that means that after the Madrid job, he will come back to us for a third time. A man can dream!

Very upsetting news...

What is wrong with you? Have you got actual proof or are you just throwing accusations around? Check my ip address out and more importantly, read some old threads, i think that i have different view.

Let them try it at the Bridge during a game... [emoji16]

Very easy to answer, simple no should do it. Emenalo....
