Breaking news coming up folks ...

Agreement is held up right now because Barcelona want euros while Chelsea only want to pay in pounds.

Surely the player also has a say in a buy back clause ? What if Cesc just doesn't want to go to Arsenal ? Can they still execute the buy back clause ?

The positives from Emanalo these last few years severely outweigh any negatives from the Mikel deal.

yaaawn

Well the team is changing quite dramatically from Mikel+Lampard+Ramires etc to Matic + Fabregas. If it is with Mourinho's blessing then all the better I guess.

I don't understand what has happened that Ramires suddenly has worse respect than Kalou over here.

It is clear to me that they are trying to force a more creative midfield on to Mourinho. If we get Fabregas next year I am expecting a lineup of Matic+Fabregas in central midfield. If Mourinho tries something goofy like Matic+Ramires I think they'll just trade Ramires. They might even do it before the season starts.

I think it's 50% of the profits, not 50 % of the fee itself.

What is his issue? Commentators are noting how better the side looks with Willian.

Why do we play counter attack against bottom feeder teams ? Stupid, stupid stupid.

Mourinho dreams of 1-0 all day. Too bad.

United's new shirt sponsorship deal will be around 70m pounds per year I'm hearing ? Crazy if true.

Willian is awful. Oscar should have been starting.

This is Mourinho's philosophy. Defense over offense.

Closest we've come to replacing Robben ?

First Chelsea game I watched this season. Very happy that I haven't watched any more. Have lost interest in football altogether. Summary of this game is lots of diving by both sides and negative tactics from Mourinho.

The club is a joke for having loaned him out. The youngsters don't have a future here.

Mourinho is a human calculator. Nothing he says should be taken at face value.

Very poor again. Mourinho's favorite starter.

It seems every game this season there has been a goal due to Ivanovic making some mistake or being beat for pace.

Has that joke of a signing Willian featured ?

Already looking forward to the excuses for Mourinho in the post match thread.

There are some things I'd like to say that will be obviously drowned by the continual bleating of the sheep on this site. Why I bother I don't know. 1. Our team had a beautiful thing going on with the Mazacar trio. Mourinho came and instantly fucked up the only part of the team that should have been left untouched. The concerns going into the season were to get a striker, a central midfielder, and a center back. Strangely, we added another creative midfielder and loaned maybe our best striker out. Willian is stupidity personified. The stupidity of our board that is. People here keep on blaming Mata but look at things from his view point. Goes from winning the club's player of the year to becoming a bench player. What a fucking farce. I can imagine he is furious. Maybe Mourinho wanted to project an image of being in control and hence went on and engineered this fiasco. 2. Despite what is repeated almost 10 times in every page of this thread by the sheep, the current problems we are facing are not of one game, or two games, or three games etc. This is a team that has not competed in the league for 3 years now, despite having spent significant money and despite our rivals being so poor ! It is ridiculous when you think of it. 3. There is a disgusting trend at this club of paying lip service to all the real needs. In pre season we were told by our manager of his youth project bullshit. This is the standard perennial bullshit that the club feeds and it is gulped down every time. The season starts and Lampard is a mainstay despite being so poor. Our youth has it's regular spot on the bench. 4. I am tired of shit on a stick. We get dominated by teams with good midfields, as shown in the Bayern game. How can we hope to compete against Bayern and Barcelona etc if we keep on stacking the midfield with technically deficient players ? Furthermore, our manager keeps on saying that he wants a revolution of football style. However, actions mean more then empty words. Look at Mourinho's actions, where he is trying to put the shackles on our most creative footballer, and then try to rationalize this as you will with his rhetoric of improving style. Absurd is all I can say.

Should have gone hard after Cavani and Falcao. Instead we loan out possibly our best striker. Then we spend 32 fucking million on fucking Willian. Fuck the directors at the club. So much bullshit year in year out that it has become tiring. The squad still isn't competitive despite our rivals all being so poor. Torres has been such a plague on us. Still don't have a striker. Don't know when we will ever recover from that terrible signing.
