Instructions for Zouma, time to turn it around.

Stupid from Baba...

Remy coming on...

You win some, you lose some, thats what football is about. Van Gaal, Wenger, Pellegrini all of them have in common that they would kill for being the current Champions of England and Curling Cup winners. Seeing who are the real specialists in failure is plain and simple.

Spont on, absolutely loving your post. Hope there is more to come. [emoji2]

Everyone has their own opinion and reasons to that matter. I hope that he calms down, otherwise he will be in serious trouble next time. If there aren't any huge controversies in the upcoming weeks, i think the club will stick with him. If Wenger is allowed ~9 years without a trophy, Jose should be at least given one. Why renew the contract, when it's all hollow words at the end of the day?! What would another coach do differently? Baba would be awarded more playing time, that would be nice, i agree with. Would anyone, apart from Guardiola bench Cesc Fabregas? I don't think so, he is too big. Sometimes the inexperienced likes of Loftus-Cheek or Kenedy have been playing, even Guardiola doesn't do that at Bayern. The new coach doesn't have any preparation time, so i would like to stick with Jose and observe how he figures this mess out. You can be sure, that Mourinho doesn't like how things have turned out, his image has been more than weekend during 2015, including last season's UCL campaign.

Apart from most Chelsea fans it seems that whole England want him gone so so so much, it's fucking unbelievable.. You know why? Because they are afraid, with Jose most of the fans see Chelsea as a big threat, especially long term, but without him, you are a smart guy and are able to figure it out for yourself. Playing nice stuff but most of the years winning absolutely nothing... Especially the gooners already have wet dreams; nothing they wish more is that this shit is about to get real, so do the farts from Manchester.... Now it's the perfect moment for poking the fire and try to finish Jose off once and for all. Go online, maybe you have access to a newspaper or you simply write a blog and put as much bullshit in it as you can, trouble his family by taking photos of his kids and other nasty stuff and pray for the best. Abramovich has an engineering degree, i hope that this time he has got the equations right. Don't fuck it up for the second time! ONE OF US!

Dailymail is pulling out the big guns, their page has been overflown with articles about Chelsea and especially Mourinho for quite some time. The longer he stays, the crazier it gets, lol. Perfect for the "us against the world" mentality, absolutely loving it...

It's like the last time, some of us will only notice what they have lost, when he is already gone. It needs a guy like Avb 2.0 to make them realise, then the moaning will reach new heights, business as usual. Don't like it one little bit! I hope this is true.

I fully agree with you. But someone in the club has to seriously man up and tell him to get his act together. At the moment it's way over the top! Maybe that's why he likes Costa so much because he acts the same way during and short after a game. That tarnishes the relationship with the referees. He should be allowed a bad season, even if it means a season without UCL. Apart from his antics, the substitution of Fabregas shows me that he knows the problems. It's going to be one hell of a next week.

Is Kevin de Bruyne still in Rojos pockets? Bad game by his standards...

No matter which team Mourinho coached over the years, people always referred to him as the Chelsea man. Everyone has their own emotional conscience. Mine is still filled with his first spell, that was special and magical and it's still firmly embedded in my head. After his return the first 2 seasons weren't bad either, but now as you stated, it's getting ridiculous, putting it "breaking apart" is an understatement. The phrase "one of us" doesn't come out of the blue. There are reasons why the connection runs deep and is both-sided. Jose Mourinho puts himself out there, sometimes he overstepps a line, but he really wants to be here and be the Chelsea man. Now we're on red alert, big calls has to happen. Once again, Fabregas has been subbed off, maybe next he won't start, a man can hope. I would like to see more direct players in the next match, maybe Hazard has to stay on the bench too.

There has also been a lot of bad luck. The ball could have been over the line, technology can be too mean. But surely we are always being told that in case of doubt it should be decided for the attacker, but Fabregas, once again, bad luck! As you already said, Ramires could have buried that chance, it shouldn't happen. What can i say, what can i do. The club is falling apart, too slow in attack and little intention of stepping it up. Mourinho was right, as much as i like Hazard and the others, they aren't ready to consistently perform to their heights. Where are the leaders now?! Dortmund failed big time last year, but i never expected Chelsea to copy that kind of stuff. Slowly i'm getting nervous for reaching a top 4 position in the league. Everyone has their own expectations and limits. Mourinho is digging a big hole and he is finding himself completely caught up in it, he needs help and love from some people in charge, otherwise shit will go bananas, an increase is always possible, sadly. It's unbelievably for the fans to see him fail to this extent. It's a big challenge for him, maybe too big, but if he can find a way out of it, he would have learnt a lot from it. Do you really think Mourinho will change? At some point he is going to start winning again, but his antics?! In my point of view; never ever. There are peope who like him for who he is, others who despise that kind of behaviour, it's that simple. Yes, taking time off isn't a bad idea, but i don't think it is possible to get an interim to figure shit out and next season the portuguese would return. If he goes, he goes forever, and for me, that shouldn't happen, not at any price. I'm deeply in pain, i respect everyone in here for their opinion and at the moment i don't have problems with anyone around here, but this cirumstances really turn me off. Need to go to the club

I'm still the new guy around here and i think most people link me to Jose, because i will always be in his corner, no matter what! Yes, i'm a Chelsea fan, but for me Jose is a must to this club. There are "Guardiolanistas", call me a Mourinhonista. Sadly, yesterday Mourinho overstepped big time. Not with his team selection, i prefer Baba instead of Zouma, but that's not the main problem, the problem is, you can't handle the referee like this. For god's sake, why did he try to enter the private room of the referee during half-time? You are allowed to moan or shit blame, but the referee is untouchable, you leave him the hell alone. Furthermore, why wasn't he busy speaking with his players, unfortunately wrong priorities... I'm just a plastic, i'm not living in London or regularly going to matches (for me that's the definition of a plastic), so surely there are guys around here who know more than me about the values of the people who are in charge. From my understanding, the club doesn't want that kind of behaviour around the club. Jose is skating on very thin ice, maybe it will break during the upcoming week, a guy like Abramovich is going to be fed up with his antics, we're speaking about a guy who let Mata join Manchester United or Petr Cech Arsenal London. For him, respect and well-behaviour is very important! The money isn't that important, but you can't fuck with the image of the club. I'm praying for pretending this action, but my dad, who is a die hard fan of Bayern Munich laughed me out of court after hearing about Jose Mourinho's recent behaviour, he expects the inevitable thing to happen very soon and i'm short of finding logical arguments to counter the old man.

He got playing time in the league. Sometimes things need more time. KdB couldn't wait with the upcoming world cup, so he desperately wanted to leave and the club granted his wishes. I can moan every day about that decision or take it like a man and get on with life. For me, it's the last one.

Don't you know the brand? Just a joke, forget it. http://www.eurosport.co.uk/football/premier-league/2015-2016/jose-mourinho-begged-chelsea-not-to-sell-de-bruyne_sto4961797/story.shtml#uk-yh-rf But yes, he is destroying the club... EDIT: Sorry, too slow, my bad.

Congratulations on your new acquistition, i think the missus will like the handbag. I should buy one for the mistress, good brainstorming. Dailymail throws everything they have at Chelsea/Mourinho, they really hate us, but they ain't us. Take it in the ass, "journalists"....

Please no, don't do it Roman!

The war has just begun! I have seen it during the spell of Nando, shit will get ugly, only a matter of time. We should do it the right way and battle it out, so it's finished once and for all. The two brigades already have troops on the ground, the anti-mou brigade is superior in numbers but that means nothing; pack your shit and fuck back twice as hard, i have got your back. It's a war of attrition and we're not gonna lose it.

That's how i like it. Well written text, you have made some pretty good arguments didierforever, respect. Sometimes i disagree with you, but that happens. Maybe i have written too much, but i couldn't let go, sorry man. Please cut me some slack because of grammar, i'm tired, i'm not a native speaker and as an Bavarian not so much used to writing that long, lol. Schurrle played well in the world cup, i agree with you, but after he came back to Chelsea, if i remember correctly, he caught an illness and never recovered. Yes, he scored that goal against Manchester City, but i didn't see progress with his overall development. For me, it was the right call to make. Nowadays he plays piss poor, he isn't a regular starter for Wolfsburg, even for Germany he looks like a fraud. It's a case for the black box, i am completely speechless. Juan Cuadrado is not far away from Fernando Torres in the blue shirt, that speaks for itself. Yes, Mourinho has to take some of the blame, but the whole department failed. Now we have to play the game "who is the worst"... Schurrle is a likeable character, he is down to earth and really cared for the club, moreover as you already pointed out, he scored some crucial goals. But for me, he has regressed big time and isn't able to recover, otherwise Cuadrado plays well in the CL and isn't that bad for Colombia, therefore i'm still in the Cuadrado corner, for me it was the right decision to part ways with Schurrle. Sad, but that's how it is. Would we have won the league with Mata 2013/2014? That's a big question to make, it's pure theoretical and speculative. After Mata left, maybe Mourinho realised that one more creative midfielder wouldn't be a bad idea. Cesc has more experience, he knows the league inside out, for me he is more mature and for this team the better player. For me Mata is more of a second striker and Cesc can play deep down, Mata is creative, but again for me he is a similar defensive liability as is Fabregas. I don't see much of a difference, rather Cesc is a little better, tackling and so on. Before all of that, we played with the famous "mazacar", however we often couldn't break down the opposition, there is more to the story than a lot of creative players. Some time ago Schurrle said, that Hazard gets more room, but others have to put the work in, we aren't talking about a perpetual motion machine. It has to come from somewhere.... Cesc is playing crap, especially when you take a look at his backward movements, on the counter they hit us hard. But in the last game Mourinho made the big call and substituted him, his place isn't that safe as many think. His reputation cuts him some slack, but it's crumbling... Salah is a quick winger, who excels when given holes where he can run into. He was a young promising prospect who served as a backup during the difficult winter market, i didn't have a problem with that decision. Now we come to your big question "was it worth it"? Yes, why? Because nowadays Chelsea sells one and then buys a new one, whom did we get instead of Mata? Nemanja Matić. Our lost son and that's worth it. Sorry, but RDM could have used Bertrand more, "barely had a chance for much squad rotation" is not good enough, you have to come up with something better or explain it to me, because at this moment i can't understand it. I think you're right about the time with the "fat spanish waiter", but during that time Bertrand looked limited in his attacking abilitys, at least in my point of view. Last season the pair of Azpilicueta and Ivanovic worked well, they got the job done. This season Ivanovic still has a contract, but it's going to expire very soon. Therefore i wouldn't use the word "stuck", for me that happened with Fernando Torres. Instead of having a 30 year old Filipe Luis in the house i prefer all day long Baba who is just 21 years of age and can play for a decade. Mourinho will accustom to that dude, but it takes time. Did Mourinho sell Luis or was it the board? If a remember correctly, Mourinho moaned about the decision, furthermore it took a long time to get a new one in. Mourinho didn't want Cech to join Arsenal, but the board made the call, he isn't that powerful as many think. That's how you make it vivid, good job!Maybe she is still living in the same house as you do and you can hear them every night being freakin' animals, so fucking what?! Listen to it, pull it out and jerk yourself off, or go out and get a better one. Man the fuck up, for what have you that thing between your legs, crying is what pussys can do all fucking day, i know one who is currently in north london. Men has to go back to the roots, often they are more romantic than the missus and that's the end, they get fucked pretty bad, i know it because a good friend of mine has to eat shit everday, too fucking soft! I liked the goal from Diego Costa against West Brom, that was some piece of art. Beautiful executed, that's how i like it! Lukaku should have stayed and worked his socks off in training.Forcing himself on Mourinho, that's what he should have done as a ~20 year old, but no, that's too much, he doesn't like competition and doesn't respect hierarchy or anything. I remember him telling the Everton fans that he will leave soon for a bigger club, no respect. This boy got what he deserved! You must have the right mentality. During the world cup Lukaku looked piss poor, couldn't handle a football and that's not because he can't play, rather he has problems with coping with the pressure. Eto'o scored some crucial goals for us, i thanked Mourinho a lot for having him at Chelsea, sadly he had problems with his fitness. Mourinho doesn't rotate his strikers, Costa is his main man and plays most of the time. Therefore i didn't want to splash out the cash for Benteke, but Stones should have been a done deal. We can't continue like this, otherwise we are going to win absolutely nothing this season, spot on! For me Cesc is better than todays Lampard, Frankie doesn't have the legs anymore, he is done. We have to take good care of Cesc, he can't do it alone, a similar set-up as Juve did with Pirlo has to happen. But the other guys aren't up for the task, shit has gone bananas for quite some time, sad times. Chicha and Welbeck are mediocre players, you have to put yourself out there and challenge with the best, that's the best way to improve, i think. Van Persie was too good, he made them Champions, for me that was a Ferguson masterclass, one player changed the league , stunning! In Football it's about winning now, otherwise your best guys will leave, take a look Arsenal and their well-know exodus in recent years.... As i said before, Fabregas isn't untouchable, he got subbed off, Jose is turning on him, wait and watch. Stats are mean, you are spot on. But Remy can play in different positions, he is way more flexible, he offers more to our game than Ba did. Okay, Ba seems to have scored more decisive goals, i give you that. Ba left and now Remy is doing the job, i think he is up for it and that's what a good buy and replacement should do. I'm happy, i hope he can continue like this. I can tell you how their situation is different, Kenedy came as a nobody, however sometimes he got playing time instead of Willian or another dude.Loftus-Cheek is new to the professional game, still 19 years old, but he gets playing time. Is Guardiola giving more playing time to newbies, or Wenger, Van Gaal, Benitez? I don't think so! Zouma, Loftus-Cheek, Kenedy, maybe Traore in the future, there are a lot of guys who Mourinho clearly rates. Guys like Bamford, Solanke (earned playing time in the UCL), Colkett, Musonda, Aina and so on can maybe make the grade. So i think that the future is looking bright. Yes, Chelsea changed their squad a lot during that spell i give you that, but the years before that the performances often had been piss poor and no other manager played that great stuff as Jose Mourinho did in 2014. Yes, Jose Mourinho makes mistakes, that's human, but i don't cry about every decision i disagree with, positive thinking, that's what makes life great and beautiful.

Piazon is simply not good enough, i like the bloke, but he can't cut it here. Schurrle was a good deal, aspiring prospect who showed potential and put it behind against the likes of City and PSG. At some point he regressed and the club cut their losses at the right time, take a look at his current time in Wolfsburg, he is doing jack shit, sadly. A lot of people, including myself, had their hopes up by the thought of Juan Cuadrado joining Chelsea. This dude failed miserably, way too often he got dispossessed, is he able to win one freakin' duel let alone an aerial one?! I didn't see that one coming, therefore i don't be harsh on the board and Mourinho. I don't watch the italian league that much, but in the UCL he showed some great piece of skill against Manchester City, i think we can get back most of the money. Traore wasn't expensive and showed good skill during his loan spell, exciting prospect, nothing wrong by giving him chances to redeem himself. At the end of the day, i see us in the blank, not in the red, but only the future will tell. Mata played utter dog shit under Jose, he wasn't the same player anymore, for that money, i'll do it all fuckin' day. Once again, we bought with Salah one hell of a talent, he showed his skill-set in the UCL. He didn't graduate at Chelsea, but because of his successful loan spells, big buckets will come in. Pedro is a proven player, the people in charge wanted someone with experience, the house is full of gifted young talents; Traore, Kenedy, Musonda and the list continues. At the end of the day we are in credit, that's not a bad thing. Especially when a player like Pedro suits the style of play a lot more than Mata, who is better as a number 10 than as a winger. Bertrand should have played more, but that's not alone Joses fault, for example ask Di Matteo. Who is responsible for the purchase of Filipe Luis? Last season, Azpilicueta und Ivanovic played their part and helped to deliver the goods, Luis didn't want to be here anymore, so it was his decision to leave. Did Jose really wanted to buy Baba? At the start of the season he had fitness problems, now we have seen problems with his defensive work, yes he is young and nervous, but mistakes happen. I think he will come good, the jury still is out, no need to make the harsh judgement call today. The so called "german messi" is better off Chelsea. The case Kevin De Bruyne could have been handled differently, the discussion is endless, i acknowledge that a mistake has been made, but people have to get over it, he won't come back. After every goal the discussion will rise again, fun times are ahead of us, lol. Kenedy has impressed me since his game against Barcelona and his antics against Suarez, he is going to play his part at Chelsea and he still is only 19 years of age. Getting him is not a massive mistake, even if De Bruyne isn't around here anymore. I don't mean you didierforever, but if some gfs of yours break up with you, you still moan all the time?! Not healthy, but not my life! Lukaku didn't want the competition and against Bayern Munich he failed with the penalty. He wasn't up for the job, he is like the spoiled kid who can't wait, he wants it now and that's not happening at Chelsea. Chelsea got ~30 mio., that money was a good down payment for Diego Costa, for me it has been good business. The team lacked leaders; Eto'o and Drogba are big personalitys, they dominante the dressing room and give good suggestions to the younger boys. Yes, Falcao seems like a deterioration, but he is only the number 3 and not so expensive. Back in the day a german friend of mine preferred Benteke over Falcao, but that guy would have been really expensive. I can still live with having Falcao around the house for one year. His goal in the league wasn't that bad imo. Lampard in his prime, yes, but not during his recent years at Chelsea, his consistency wasn't there anymore. Year after year the midfield got overran. Cesc is playing badly, but last season he was an integral part to the campaign, "massive mistake" seems a bit harsh to me. Yes, Rakitic would have been better, we tried to get Modric, but we failed, so i take Cesc, without Cesc it could be worse... Remy has been a massive signing, scoring goals for fun, not moaning because of sitting on the bench and he can play more than one position. For me, he is a much better fit than Ba. Chelsea often follows the philosophy sell one and then buy a new one. Mourinho himself acknowledged, that he would have kept some the players, but that wasn't possible. I think the business hasn't been that bad, some decisions could have been handled differently, but overall the improvement is clear as daylight, the judgment day is not today or tomorrow, being 6 points behind a UCL spot is not the end of world, not after 9th matchdays, lol.

Yes, you are spot on about the aging squad. Nevertheless the old guard wasn't that bad, yes, some reinforcements would have been great. We are back to the question who is in control?! Buying some midfielder who is able to create something and can dictate play would have really helped the cause. A good winger too. Mourinho is often criticised for his lack of ruthlessness, but guys like Sturridge and especially Bertrand could have been used more. Josh McEachran could have been a rising star, but no one showed faith in him, rather playing safe and use Mikel. Back in the day the people in charge were afraid of making the judgement call. Avb wanted too much, the high-line was too risky and sticking with Torres instead of Drogba against the likes of Manchester United, big balls, but plain stupid, sorry. I liked RDM, but after the Double he wasn't able to develop the style of play. He sticked with Torres until the second match against Juve, he put Hazard upfront, game over. Rafa was something else. Sometimes "Mazacar" produced great stuff, but the defense organisation wasn't good enough, the decision making of Ivanovic and Luiz were often piss poor. Too many defeats in the league, yes, a lot of football fans liked the style of play, but that wins you nothing in the League and CL... None of these 3 managers were able to implement something as a philosophy, it has always been way too chaotic. What about after Joses sacking in 2007? After that everything turned to shit, yes i remember the CL final, Joses team without the constructor. It's all speculation, members like Jason maybe will start frowning, but with Jose we would have won more. For me, it's simple as that, therefore Abramovich has brought him back, he has admitted to that mistake. Lukaku and De Bruyne, i count two young players. Maybe we can add Salah and my Sherley to that list, but that's it with young players.

He wanted that last Championship pretty bad to go out with a bang. Therefore he bought Van Persie, nearly 30 and injury prone as fuck. He got rid of Pogba, like Mourinho he can't stand some type of players, that's life, shit happens. Some people here would call that destroying the club in the long term. For me Ferguson has always been an arrogant prick who enjoyed being the man. He is a winner and 100% committed to the club, similar as Mourinho.

Before Jose we played some fancy stuff, but without structure. Some games "mazacar" run riot, other games they kept quiet and we lost. Despite of his behaviour, Frank Lampard is an absolute legend for me and no one can deny his ability to lead the team to glory. Apart from Lampard we lacked leadership in midfield, Mourinho solved that problem quickly by advising to get Matic and Fabregas. Instead of Cech we have Courtois, Azpilicueta is one of his soldiers, Zouma gets more and more playing time, Matic and Fabregas are having problems, but that happens, they made us Champions, Mourinho made Hazard player of the year and one of the best in the world, Willian is playing some great stuff during the calendar year, Costa is a warrior who knows how to put it in, Loftus-Cheek has no experience, but Jose gives 19 year old boy chances, let that sink in! So how is he destroying the club?! Luiz 50 mio., Mata ~40 mio., Lukaku ~30 mio., "Sherley" no loss, de Bruyne should be here, but he was/is an arrogant prick, you can't work with everyone, i know that feeling, it's utter shit, but i am no better: "who is without sin cast the first stone" (have fun boys).... Without Jose we won one championship with these world-class players, Jose brought back the winning spirit and we are current Champions, but the mood here is depressing, in the first moment i think about ungratefulness, but now i know it better, it's Joses fault, he set the bar that high, it's like Messi, when he isn't scoring >90 goals during a calendar year some people criticize him, he is that good. Mourinho isn't allowed a handful bad games, let alone a whole season... What is the "specialist in failure" thinking about that?! I think he is laughting all the way to the bank, because keeping up to these standards is nearly impossible, lol. Jose puts himself out there and fights for the club and the supporters, he always shows passion and he truly wants to be here. He has earned so much money, he could go everythere but he still chooses to be with us, simply one of us, true legend of the club. He really wants to build a dynasty here, but you have to let him do that.

Did he do it or is he just the manager and the board gets shit done?! For me, he is an advisor, he said himself said he didn't want to let go of Mata and so on. It's not black and white!
