Henrique

Please dont start the "he is overrated" thing. He didn't play because we were just great.

Azoi = MONSTER

WTF Etoo was doing?

Lampard injured? Major blow. He has been a dominant character in the game.

WHAAT? Lampard has been great.

AAAAAHAHAHHAHAHA Are you watching the gane.?

BRILLIANT!!!!

Brilliant Cahill!!!

GOOOOOAL

So unlucky. Cant blame Ivanovic for that goal.

Disgusting.

Just doesnt make sense.

Shocking line-up. I expected Luiz to play in mid but alongside Lampard AND Mikel, and only two attacking mids. Looks like the man wants to win. What about Etoo? It deems Torres career is dead in the water, the man stays on the bench after a horrendous peformsnce from Etoo days ago.

They wont get a top 4 finish.

People are saying a lot of bullshit these days. This team is not as good as the 2004 side because this one is better. "Didier Drogba is gone". People just forget the player Drogba was back in 2004, a player that still would play 2 years as a Chelsea player before becoming a really great striker. I remember he was the kind of striker that could miss a incredible chance in front of the goal. Drogba was just a shadow of the striker that played in UCL Final in 2012 and was PL top scorer in 06/07 and 09/10. Our strikers barely scored back in those days...very similar to what is happening right now. Drogba only scored more than 12 goals in a PL season in two occasions, and in 4 seasons he could not score more than 10 goals. Drogba was never a goal scoring machine. John Terry is aging but he still a top quality defender. Lampard is in the decline of his career? Yes. But the team have Mata, Willian, Oscar, Hazard... That 2004 team was a team of hard workers. PL today is way more competitive than in those days. That team from 04-06 wasn't even the best team of the Abramovich era. The team of the 08 UCL Final, and the attack of the 100+ goals were better. Its really bad how the press make that team look the zenith of Chelsea story and of the Mourinho career (his Inter de Milao team was better than his Chelsea from those days). Its time for those idiots to stop this bullshit.

I will give my concept of technical ability: a player who knows how to treat the ball, knows how to control it. As a brazilian, its really hard to define this concept, I'm not saying the brazilian concept is better than the english one, or whatever, but for me players who you can put in this category: *Mata *Hazard *Willian *Oscar *Luiz *Ramires (that Barcelona goal says everything) *Lampard (his technical ability are just awesome, was the perfect player for me when he was in his prime) *Torres (the technic is there, but something is just lost forever) *Azi *Etoo (when he was on form) *Ashley Cole *KDB (he got the technical abilities, but you need more than that to be a Chelsea player). There are some players with great aspects of their games, but they just dont have a lot of technical abilities: *Terry *Ba *Schurlle There are players with zero technical abilities. Guys that can barely shoot or pass, guys that you would never pick to play in your team in a friendly match, but somehow they just end up getting lots of money playing football in big european teams: *Mikel *Ivanovic *Cahill

Etoo is probably the worst Chelsea deal since Torres. The man is really bad at the moment. Mourinho really got this wrong. What makes it even more laughable is the fact it was a free one, but still a horrendous one.

It seems you are missing lots of games...thats explain why you appears in Luiz topic to make negative posts even when the man have a good match.

Funny. Thats coming from a guy that have a huge Cahill poster in his bedroom. lionsden, Phill Driver and "the only place to be", presidents and founder members of Gary Cahill FanClube™. Their goal: make Cahill looks like the epitome of the english defender, and if its possible, praise any Chelsea player born in UK. They are not afraid of putting down players that are a real threat for their beloved ones' place in the starting XI. Avoid criticizing Terry, Lampard and specially Cahill, or you will feel their rage.

Mourinho should think about using Luiz as DM for this one. Cech; Ivanovic,Terry,Cahill, Azi; Mikel, Luiz; Lampard; Willian, Hazard; Torres. 1-0 win.

Dude, Ramires is a DM. Easily the most consistent player of the season. The fact some people are complaining about his shoots and passes, when the team started with Oscar, Hazard, Mata + one striker, shows something is really wrong. Lampard+Mikel against Liverpool...heaven help us.

Man, I have to admit it really annoys me yours posts about Luiz and Cahill. Time for you to stop your bullshit. Perhaps only hypercritical fans like you dont put Luiz in the group of the best defenders in the word. He has his brainfarts moments, but he he also had great matches. Your posts makes Luiz look like a 100% failure. What is more annoying is that you are always on Cahill topic to advocate for him, even after horrendous games. Yeah, 21m was paid for Luiz, but if leaves for Barcelona or any other team, it won't be for less than this. You won't find any club in the world willing to pay for Cahill more than the 7m we paid back in 2012. Simple as that. After your post already got 6 "likes" or so, and has the "popular" star on it, its time for you to leave this topic and change your agenda. You will end it in a great way, dont you think?

He wasn't the man of the match but he had a really good game. Luiz is a better footballer, but right now its really hard to justify Cahill on the bench and Luiz playing.

People who liked your post must know: thats 100% facebook bullshit. I'm pretty sure Mourinho is not even thinking about combining Barcelona and Bayern style to form a new team, its only a foolish dream by any football fan. You must believe that Chelsea squad in next 2 or 3 years will be pretty much the same, perhaps 2 or 3 players in, and 2 or 3 out. Hazard will never be as good as Ronaldo, I think some people just dont realize how good the portuguese man is. Hazard will be a great player, but he will be Hazard, he will make his own path. Its clear its another bullshit made a fan, because its not a thing you would see Mourinho saying. He might get his tactics wrong sometimes, but he is not a stupid man. Just try to find this thing in google, and the only result will be that facebook bullshit page.

I dont think it was a 4-3-3? It was more a 4-1-2-2-1.
