bababoom

it's been three fucking games. Judging by some of these posts, you would of thought we lost all three games...

So you're judging Mourinho on pre season matches? its mainly about fitness, Jesus...

Pre season is mainly about fitness.

Do you also prefer to finish 3rd, 20 points behind united? How about losing 4-1 to A.Madrid, 3-0 to Juventus or 3-1 to West Ham?

Chelsea 0 - 0 Man City Chelsea 0 - 0 Fulham West Ham 3 - 1 Chelsea That was Benitez's first three games as Chelsea manager, who would of thought he'll get us top four? not me. Rafa had more than three games to get his ideas across, and so will Mourinho... be patient for gods sack and try not to judge him after three fucking games. And lets not forget we got a point at old trafford, looking at some of these responses you would of thought we got thrashed...

It seems to me Jose thinks Lukaku is a better impact player, Steve Clarke held the same opinion.

Perfect time for Jose to start Lukaku, and i think he will. Cech Ivan - Cahill (Luiz if fit) - Terry - Cole Ramires - Van Ginkel (Doubt he'll start, but one can hope) De Bruyne - Oscar - Hazard Lukaku Experience back line, Fresh, young, fast front six. We need to press and make it hard for United to keep possession, and with this team i think we can do that.

Our best player for the last two years going out on loan... that would be hilariously tragic, even for Chelsea.

No way would we spend 30 million on Willian just so we can have Eto...

Van Ginkel - Ramires pivot, please.

The thing with Robben and Duff is that they're both out and out wingers, although Hazard and Willian can play on the wing, it's best when they can interchange and not be forced to stay out on the wing. I would compare Duff and Robben to the likes of Moses and Schurrle in terms of how direct they are. Back then we were playing counter attack football, similar to United, look at how many wingers they have, Young, Valancia, Nani and Zaha. We're going to play a different style under Mourinho now considering the amount of attacking Midfielders we have, it's not about counter attacking at blistering pace, more like controlling the pace and tempo of the game.

Mourinho definitely had a say in this transfer, no way would our board just buy him without consulting Jose.

4-1 Chelsea. No, i'm not joking.

If De Bruyne asks to go out on loan (which some of you are suggesting he should do) it shows me he's not ready to compete at a top club. I don't care if it's a world cup year or not, he should be willing to fight for his place.

BBC Sport ‏@BBCSport6m Chelsea have agreed a £30m deal to sign attacking midfielder Willian from Russian club Anzhi Makhachkala subject to a work permit

I thought he was younger, but i guess he's in his prime.

Very true, maybe Mikel is on his where also?

Cech (Schwarzer) (Ivanovic) Azpilicueta - Luiz (Cahill) - Terry - Cole (Betrand) Ramires (Van Ginkel) (Essien) (Mikel) Oscar (Lampard) (De Bruyne) Willian - (Oscar) Mata - Hazard (Schurrle) Lukaku (Torres) (?) Out - Moses, Ba. In - Striker? I'm still not sure about Oscar playing in midfield, it'll be pretty lightweight with him and Ramires, but they both have a lot of energy and this will help when we press the opposition (and judging from the last couple of games, Jose will want our players to do that).

How come he hasn't been capped more times for Brazil? surely if he is worth £30 million he would at least be considered more often.. I know Fernandinho has few caps, but i get the feeling if Oscar or Neymar went to Russia they will still get many caps for Brazil, like Hulk did.

No way are we sending KDB out on loan, he's far too good.

How many times has Lampard or Ramires passed back to our defence? so frustrating.

Its just a nickname...

Has he even been linked with us?

But the difference is you don't get people whining every second about how we shouldn't of sold him... I know i don't have to come here, and i wont in the future.
