Would Cuadrado be eligible to play the Carling Cup final?

He clearly didn't watch the game.

Yeah, the real blow was Fabregas and not Costa. That ruined the set-up that has been quite successful against City with Ramires - Willian - Hazard behind the striker. Shame we couldn't get Cuadrado in time for this one.

Yeah, it's a shame we had to put up with Cahill for 5 months before he did that though. Better late than never I suppose.

Zouma was MOTM but I voted for Willian to show some appreciation for his game today. Oscar should be nowhere near a game against an opponent as good as Man City.

Lol at Cahill. In the game less than 5 minutes and nearly cost us the game.

Cech was more likely to come on ahead of all of them. Even as an outfield option.

Seriously, what happened to Mourinho? He used to be the master at making subs and changing the flow of games. Now he's even worse than Ancelotti used to be which is saying something.

Milner > Oscar And I mean that 100%

It'd be nice if the fans gave Drogba the same reception they gave Lampard.

Jose needs to change something because we're getting outplayed and aren't offering much resistance.

Oscar = not helping the midfield or the attack. Just there. Doing nothing.

Get Oscar off, please! So fucking irrelevant. What is he even out there for?

Our best defender has been the 20-year-old 'kid'.

You can see why Jose doesn't play him against good opponents.

Exactly. Referees are good at spotting when it's ball to hand - Clattenburg has already made the right decision in this game in one of those instances - there is no need to put your hands behind the ball when defending a cross.

Zouma

You have to admit though that the mental gymnastics some supporters perform to absolve Mourinho of literally everything is pretty impressive.

Jose and the players should do a Marshawn Lynch in every presser until the end of the season. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HP8UoBUm1sY

Will Oscar be in the starting 11 today? Mourinho hasn't started him in any of the last 3 games against Man City and he usually comes off the bench with 15-20 mins to go. Yaya is missing for Man City, so who knows, maybe Mourinho will trust him to not get lost/out-muscled in the midfield battle. Mourinho seems to prefer Ramires - Willian - Hazard behind the striker against Man City, but with Fabregas a doubt Ramires may play CM. That's probably the most interesting thing for me today: whether or not Oscar starts.

After a lot of soul searching I've now decided I'm in favour of this transfer. The hairstyle and the his preferred shirt number are what tipped the balance. The Cuad

Thanks. Brilliant video. I don't know how Jose could justify bringing Cahill straight back into the team. Zouma deserves a run of games now.

Hazard was supposed to be signing a new deal as well and that was nearly 3 months ago...
