Everton's defending has been awful! but Danny has taken his goals well. Still wouldn't want him back though.

Bamford is a joke! this guy just cant stop scoring!

Top player but not really needed.

he will probably struggle to get games in the big matches because most people think United will play RVP Januzaj - Rooney - Mata but that front 4 would make them get exposed big time in against top teams as Januzaj and Mata can't defend! So i can see Januzaj missing out in big games, in place of Valencia, which could make him want to leave.

Another Top talent! but do we need another young creative midfielder/winger? answer is no, so that means we will probably sign him.

Sign him up! Quality player with bags of potential! Balotelli can be the next Drogba, not Benteke or Lukaku! This guy can be the best number 9 in the world.

Cech Ivanovic - Luiz - Terry - Azpilicueta Ramires - Matic Willian - Oscar - Hazard Eto'o

Matic v Yaya next week will be a great battle!

Wow looks like this will be his last season at the club!

yes it was a joke, to try to help people like you get over him!

wow look how sensitive you are! and no you never told the truth, i mentioned Mata once, with a tongue and cheek comment and you said i keep on commenting on him! get over it.

What a player!

LOOL! don't cry because your beloved Mata has gone to United!

who needs Mata when we got this guy!

Happy Birthday Jose!

17 is my favourite number so i am happy if Hazard keeps that number! but if he wants the 10 shirt then fair enough!

He has linked up quite nicely with Atsu so far, i can see those two building a good on field relationship together!

Mourinho knows how to navigate a PL season, I assume the games your referring to are Arsenal and United away, Dont think we didn't try to win those games, and that those games ended 0-0 all because of Jose's tactics, Arsenal and United were both scared of committing men forward and going for the win as they were both scared of getting exposed on the counter attack.

are you telling me you cant see how the squad has improved? Lets start off by getting Essien out the way, we don't need him and him staying or going really doesn't change anything. Kdb and Mata made no impact this season, and are not players who fit into Mourinho's system. Whereas Matic who is one of the best Pivot players on the planet! and is perfect for us! he will finally give us a world class pivot alongside Ramires, that signing alone could be a big reason why we can go on and win the title now! and i don't know how you can say Mata is better then Matic when they are completely different players! and yes Mata is a better number 10 then Salah, but in Jose's system of counter attacking football, with our wide men asked to cover a lot of ground both offensively and defensively and asked to break on the counter with pace, Salah is miles better option then Mata I'm afraid.

yes he is a classy guy and was a great player for us before Jose returned. but as i said its been so obvious for as long time that he was going to leave, and the fact that he wanted to go and wanted to go to United of all teams makes it way more easier for me to move on, obviously it may take other people more time to get over Mata leaving, that's fair enough, but for me i see an excellent squad with the best manager in the world, and much more success and exciting times ahead for us, and that is more then enough reason for me not to be getting down over Mata leaving.

Jose clearly is not wrong about Mata! He just cant adapt and never would be able to adapt to Mourinho's system! Mata had to go, of course i would have preferred him not going to another PL team, but he wanted to leave in this window and he wanted to go to United, so the club respected his wishes, we dont need him under Jose and we got a good deal out of it, and bringing in Salah and Matic and letting Kdb and Mata go really improves our team.

I don't understand how you can still be emotional! i think its been very clear for a long time now that Mata had no future here! i was one of the people in the summer who said Mourinho would favour Oscar over Mata and that Mata would struggle to get into the team! People have had plenty of time to accept Mata's situation and should have been able to see it was only a matter of when not if he would leave. He has had no impact all season and people are still sad to see him go! we have a match today and all most people can think about is poor old Mata. Yes he was great for us under RDM and Rafa but under Jose he couldn't adapt and had to go, It has felt like months since Chelsea last played so i dont care about Mata any more i am just excited about the game today!

Damn people need to get over it already! he is gone! we didn't need him, people need to move on and should be excited about the team that Jose is building us!

I cant wait to see the Matic - Ramires pivot!

another thing about Matic is he works so hard and covers alot of ground! In fact Matic has covered more ground then any other player in the CL this season! 78926 m
