Funny that is the lineup I use in my FIFA 14 Seasons line-up. I just love it when I beat Real Madrid any of the National Teams that I come up against. Of course I try my best to play like boring boring Chelsea & my opponents quit after not able to get by the bus

I grabbed that Mark Schwarzer quote that I used in the Jose thread from this article. Excellent that the players believe in what Jose is setting out & they are trying to implement this. Schurrle & Ba are good examples of this. Both don't get the headlines much, but have made some very important plays for us this season.

I just saw that your responded Rmpr so I am adding your post here. I have been following CFC for a while now, thanks to beauty of Globlization & internet access. The one thing I have noticed is the fact that CFC have always played a counter-attack style. Back when Zola & the lads where there to now. CFC seem to have a good striker that they can punt the ball to & speed on the flanks. Ok maybe you can say in '09 CFC was more tika taka, but it always seemed that CFC would love to have the speed on the break & look for advantages w/ the strikers isolated against slower defenders. Jose has just put this on another level.

I am not sure if you read this quote from Mark Schwarzer, but it's an excellent retort for those fools who feel that Chelsea doesn't play proper footie: Mark Schwarzer - "It’s quite amusing to hear the criticism because the bottom line is there was a tactic we employed and it worked down to a tee. We played within the rules and we played the best way we thought we could get a result, tried to frustrate Liverpool and it worked.”

Ashley looks like he makes a good "B. A." (Bad Attitude) Baracus

TBF the Sun has very little credibility. Their next article might be that JT has been strengthen by Aliens so he can play on Weds

Found this photo amusing

funny

There was a time during the match when the two were having a laugh together. I doubt it because they are friends, despite the Blues vs Reds mentality the media is presenting.

Where I can't see him because he is surrounded by all that blubber there

IMHO we need Hazard - he is our most creative player....sorry Willian fans

I was just on The Shed End msgboard & there are reports that Hazard trained with the squad for the first time today

yea but Torres would have touched it wide for a Goal Kick. That would have been a celery moment

imagine the media would have gone out & said that Willian was taunting the dirty red faithful, but we all know that would have been comedy

Am I the only one that is upset that Willian didn't walk the ball over the goal line? Man that would have been so comedy.

I don't didn't see what HD3D was referring to in Episode 4. I am upset that HD3D didn't tell me about the Night's King. Getting back to the topic - Jose's masterplan worked to perfection. He put in Hungry players that he knew could get a result. Lpuke were expecting the usual suspect & were completely blindsided. Now they are trying to spin that Chelsea are anti-football. Sorry did I miss something in the match? Did Chelsea pick up the ball & carry it across the goal line? Don't mess w/ the Mind of Mourinho or you will get burn

Well the English media has taken the view that lpuke winning the Title is good for football. Hell we had this So-call Everton fan saying he believes his side would love to assist lpuke in bringing the title to Merseyside when Everton hosts Man City

You seemed to be right. Still you can't tell me he wanted to score vs lpuke.

agreed he didn't want to score vs lpuke. Did he even celebrate after the goal? I think he ran back to the Center line

I thought he was already on the Iron Throne

Why can't Jose get a vote? Come on now that was Masterful Tactics today. So called best attack got what on the day? A Big Fat Fucking ZERO!!!

So glad Jose has returned home

reading & hearing all of this noise about the so call great attack....can't even score vs CFC B team...fuck off dirty red scousers - forever our bitch!!!

Demba Ba my Lord Demba Ba Demba Ba my Lord Demba Ba

funny I wonder where are the idiots on the Jose thread talking about how lame it is to play defensive Come on now, come in here & criticize Don Carlo you arm chair gaffers.
